A CLEVER TRICK.

Detroit Free Press: An eX-collePtor of
customs relates this as among his expert
ences: Some years ago, and shortly prior
to the holidays, a man came into the Office
and said that he wanted to talk with me
personally. He looked like an unsbphis-
tlcated fellow who had come in from the
country to try his hand at business,
though he had sharp features and nasal
twang.
- Mister" he began when we We're
alone, I'm in kind of a snarl and I've
come to you because l want to do the
square thing. l had a nice lot of Hava-
ney cigars shipped to Windsor, thinkin' I
could do a stroke sellin EN- here in De-
troit for the Christmas trade. I had 81
man there to take care of 'em till 1 came
on, but he, not KNOWN nothing about
the law, packs them cigars in boat and
brings 'em over here without payin' no
duty. I reckon it was smugglin', but he
is honest as the sun, and l hurried right
here soon's l heerd of what he'd done.
Here's a sample of them cigars, as he
held out a box, and I want to say right
here that l never had a more delicious
| smoke. He took me to the little room he
| had rented and showed me hundreds of
| boxes on which he paid the duty, and
| let the matter drop 1t got into the pa

DOMESTIC FINANCING.

'The secret of domestic finance is to
make little money go a long way,
writes Frances Evans in an article
About Men," in the January Ladies'
Home Journal. THE old axiom about
saving the pennies and letting the pounds
take care of themselves is not the nat
ural policy of Americans; only the frugal
Scotch and French know that rule by
heart. But women could learn it better
than men, because their minds dwell more
naturally upon little things. If they are
rarely great financiers they are fire.
Quently successful small financiers.
Make a woman responsible for an allow
ance and she feels the interest of a junior
partner; pay her bills, and she is put on
the footing of an inferior. There is a
feeling of ignominy about asking man
far car fare. so cents, S., or even a hun
dred dollars, disagreeable beyond express
sion to a wamon with any pride or indie
pendence. Now that women are thinking
more for themselves than in the past in
dependence is becoming naturally a part
of their creed. This independence can not
be choked out

Norway isn't so cold-that is. in its at
titude toward women. For some time
they've been employed on the railroad
and postal service and are now receiving
appointments as supervisors of the rail-
way stations. Their business is to re-
ceive reports from conductors, answer
questions in several languages. call
trains, ring the station bell at the de-
parture of trains. and also to telegraph
their departure to the next station. Then.

THE FORGOTTEN COUNTRY EDITOR

Geauga Republican, Until within re-
cent years it was quite popular custom
on the occasion of weddings to remem-
Der the editor and his retnue of assist
ants with reminders of the luncheon No
matter how gay and festive the occasion,
or how humble the contracting parties,
the printer was never forgotten, and in
return he always threw at the happy
couple his richest blessings and best
wishes, often couched in the choicest
Saxon. Forty years ago young couple
about to embark on the matrimonial sea
would no more think of overlooking the
editor than the minister Often at holi-
day time-weddirgs seemed more numer-
Gus in those good old days than nova

swamped with fine culinary souvenirs Of
the nuptial feast, and resembles more a
bakery than place devoted exclusively
to enlightening a small portion of the

means will allow him to eat any cake at
all. in the seclusion of his humble home,
while the wedding bells ring in his ears
something of a hollow mOckery, too,
as he reverts to the past-reminding him

January last a well-preserved stupa was
opened at the village of Pipra-H on
the Nepaul frontier in the Bastl dlstrlct
of the northwest provinces. rms village
was in the Birdpur grant, a large prop
erty owned by William c. Peppe ana MS
brother Inside the building was FOUND
a large stone Golfer, crystal and steatlte
vases, bone and ash relics, fragments OF
lime, plaster and wooden vessels, and
large quantity of pewcls and ornaments
placed in two vases in honor of the relics
A careful list was at once made OF all the
articles, and Mr.. Peppe generously offer
ed to place them at the disposal of the
government.
The special interest of the discovery
lies in the fact that the relics in honor
of which the stupa was erected appear to
be those of Gautama Buddha Sakya Mum
himself, and may be the actual share or
the relics taken by the Sakyas OF kapll-
avastir at the time of the cremation OF
Gautama Buddha. The inscription on one
of the urs proves that the builders OF the
stupa believed the relics to be those OF
Gautama Buddha himself. 1t runs: "Thls
relic receptacle of the blessed Sakya
Buddha is dedicated by the renowned
brethren with their sisters and their sons
| wives" The characters of the record
Prof Buhrer points out, do not mark
medal long vowels, and appear to be old
er than those of the Tsoka inscription.
| The relics, being matter of such in
! tense interest to the Buddhist world,
were offered by the Indian government to
! the king of Siam, who is the only existing
! Buddhist monarch, with a prOviso that
! he would not object to offer portion OF
/ the relics to the Buddhists of Burma ana
| CeyIon, and it was suggested that his
majesty should send deputation to re-
ceive the sacred relics with due cere-
monial.
| No relics of Buddha authenticated by
! a direct inscription have before been
found in modern times, so the relics are
as rare as they are unique, and by all
Buddhists will be regarded as most
sacred and holy objects of devotion.
| Their presentation to the king OF Siam,
the recognized head of the religion, is
| therefore, highly proper. The accessories
which were discovered will, it is under
Stood be distributed among the Imperial
Museum at Calcutta, the Lucknow Pro-
vincial Museum, and, perhaps, the Brit
iSh Museum, Mr.. Peppe retaining rea-
isonable number Of duplicates for his own
use. The stone Golfer above referred to is
over four feet in length and two feet in
height. 1t is made out of a solid block OF
sandstone and weighs about 16 hundred
weight. 1t is understood that the ac-
acknowledgements of the government have
been conveyed to Mr.. Peppe for his pub
lic-spirited action in the matter.
