Love a la Tandem.

'Mong sylvan groves of sentiment
We billed and cooed;
You were, sweetheart, moreoer content
TO be thus wooed.
Tho future then with rapture hung
And blisses rare,
While birdlings sweetest songs they sung
To glad the air.
We courted then-we're married now,
No more we string
Fair pearls upon horizons brow
/ curses fling.
All, all is changed; with rain we soak;
We're cast and down.
Our tandems smashed and we are broke
ten miles from town.
H. S. Keller, in Boston Courier.

The City Revenue Problem.

wN THE LICENSE tax ordinance
recently introduced by Council
Il man Morris, of the Eighteenth
ward, a peculiar discrimination
appears in relation to insurance agents
and book agents. The former if resi-
dents of the city, are to pay 50 annual
" for a license to do business, but the
sum to be exacted of the meek and
lowly evangel of literature is five times
as large. Whether this means that
selling books is more of Il crime thar
advocating life insurance or that the
book agent is financially the more ell
gible to a municipal draft, we leave
to others to determine. The singing
out of these particular occupations for
exceptional taxation represents, how
ever mistaken view of eXpediency
and it is to be hoped that it will not
prevail.
on this general theme we desire TO
reiterate what has previously been
said on this page, that the need of the
city is not so much a readjustment or
license taxation for the purpose of
business-like and economical adminis-
tration of the revenues already in
sight. The city is hard up; we under
stand that 1t needs new sewers, ii
needs new streets, it needs a viaduct;
more urgent, perhaps, than anything
else just at present, it needs the grant
ing of liberal means to the board Of
health for the purpose Of putting
speedily to rights the city's disturbed
sanitary condition. The temptation TO
open the door to increased taxation is
very strong and maybe increased taxa
ton will yet become unavoidable. But
first there should be a careful plugging
of leaks and a gathering together of
the tangled threads of past negligence
in municipal administration.
Let councils give to the public some
concrete evidences of a desire to dis
burse the public's money prudently and
with fidelity, and then the raising OF
taxes will be less strenuOusly opposed,

An exception that was taken by Presi-
ueht w. w. Scranton, of the Scranton
water company to several changes that
had been made in one of his contributions
TO The Tribune of that city, brings for
ward a point that should be better un-
derstood by people generally, relative TO
the privileges ~of q newspaper and its
duty to the public.
Incorporated in the communication of
Mr.. Scranton was a reference, for in
stance to the private affairs of Mayor
MOir Very properly The Tribune editor
eliminated this part of the article, and
explains the liberty taken by saying:

or Moirs public and official actions and

Just what character the new maga-
zine to be published by two young wo-
men Of Chicago, and to be devoted to
the interests of bachelorhood, will take
in the world of literature is difficult
to predict. The somewhat universal
opinion is that it will be devoted large
ly to ADVICE advocating marriage, with
q few recipes for welsh rarebits and
cozy corners thrown in. Later on it
is suggested by sarcastic critics, en-
vious of the vogue the new periodical
will enjoy, that a matrimonial bureau
will be established in connection with
the publication. All of which intima-
tions are probably far from the present
intentions Of the well meaning young
editors.

Fifteen states have by vote of the
school children adopted state floral
emblems. The rose, the peach and
apple blossom, sunfower and rhodo-
dendron have already been appropri-
ated. If Pennsylvania children do not
get together soon and decide upon a
flower they may be obliged to take up
onion sprouts or celery tops.
