DUTIES OF MERCANTILE AP-
PRAISERS.

Under the new law which went
into effect on January lst, the du-
ties of the mercantile appraiser
are changed considerably. Ac-
cording to the terms OF the new
law every person in the county
engaged in business, no matter
how small, must pay mercan-
tile license tax. Each retail mer-
chant shall pay annually 50, and
one mill additional on each dollar
OF the gross volume Of business
transacted annually. Each whole
sale dealer shall pay annually a
mercantile license tax of 50, and
one-half mill additional on each
dollar of the whole volume Of bus
mess transacted annually.
The blanks to be distributed
by the mercantile appraiser to
the various merchants will be
furnished by the auditor general
and will contain requests for the
information as to the actual
amount of business transacted
the previous year, to which deal
erS must make an affidavit as to
the correctness of the return.
These blanks will be forwarded
to dealers by the mercantile APP
praiser ten days before his per-
sonal visit to their place of busi-
ness and must be filed up by the
dealer and be ready to be return
ed to the mercantile appraiser
upon his visit
The mercantile appraiser must
report neglect or refusal to fill
these blanks and all other infor-
nation to the county treasurer,
who may require the owner or
manager of the concern to APP
pear before him with books and
papers and must settle the
amount Of the tax due. The re-
fusal to produce books and pa
rers and to appear before the
county treasurer when summon
ed renders vendors, owners or
agents liable to a penalty of ST.
900.
Another new feature Of the law
is that each dealer who comes un-
der the provisions of this act
shall cause to be placed perma-
nently, at the entrance of his or
her place Of business sign de-
scribing the business in which
the party is engaged, with his or
her name upon each sign. A VIC
lation Of this section is punish
able with a fine of $40.

A "REMINISCENCES OF SPUR
GEON.

One of DR.. Taylor's reminis-
cences of Charles Spurgeon is
here brought to mind. 1t was a
day of rest after a Sabbath of
happy, yet physically exhausting
services, that the two warml y-at-
tached friends rode in Mr.. Spur
geon's carriage among the beau
tiful rural scenes of England.
The burden of the Savior whom
they preached, and their hearts
were all aglow with love to him
who, though unseen, attended
them along the country road.
At length Spurgeon suggested
that they stop little by the way
and in united prayer hold a sea-
sonof communion with their Lord.
Leaving the carriage they passed
behind a sheltering hedge and
then, said DR.. Taylor, | learned
the secret or Charles Spurgeon' s
power as we l1nelt in the clover
field beside the hedge, for never
had ! heard a prayer that told of
such loving acquaintance with
Christ and unbounded confidence
in his sufficiency, sympathy and
power. Like the great London
preacher, DR.. Taylor specially
enjoyed devout communings with
Christ, and the most attractive
feature of his ministry was the
public prayers in which he led
his people to the Masters feet
and invoked on them the blessing
Of him who died and lives
foreyermore.
The following clipping, handed
us bya friend in McConnellsburg,
shows the value placed upon
prayer by the great preacher at
another time:
"Keep the altar of private
prayer burning. This is the
very life of all piety. The sanct-
uary and family affairs borrow
their fires here, therefore let this
burn well.
Secret devotion is the very es-
sence, evidence and barometer of
vital and experimental religion. "

REST.
by FATHER RYAN.

My feet are wearied, and my hands are tired,
MY soul oppressed
And desire what have long desired
Rest rest
'Tls hard to toll when toll Is almost vain,
In barren ways;
'Tis hard to sow-an never garner grain.
In harvest days.
The burden of my days is hard to bear
But God knows best
And have prayed but vain has BENNY prayer
For rest-sweet rest.
'Tis hard to plant in Spring and never reap
The autumn yield.
'Tls hard to till, and 'ts titled to weep
Ger fruitess field
And so cry weak and human cry,
SO heart oppressed;
Anttso sigh a weak and human sigh
For rest-for rest,
My way has wound across the desert years,
And cares nfest
My path, and through the flowing Of hot tears
pne-for rest.
Twas always so, when but a child laid
On mothers breast
MY wearied little head; cen then prayed
As now forrest.
And am restless stn Twill soon be DER

Lies SUMS setting and | see the shore

new YORK BUSINESS WOMEN

New York, June 2l.-"Never think
of marriage until you are able to sup
port husband"
This was the advice of Thomas G..
Sherman TO the members of the New
York Council of the Business Woman's
National Association. The commodious
clubrooms on Fulton street held 200
guests. Mr.. Sherman was one of the
two men speakers.
IL am glad you call yourselves wo-
men, said he. Il have the greatest
respect for the saleswoman, but | do
not think anything of the saleslady.
IL am the father of the feminine
typewriter, he continued, and then he
told how he had first begun to employ
and train woman to operate type
writer in business Office.
AS a cold business proposition" he
concluded, II prefer woman type
writer. She never sells information on
Wall street. Women have the faculty
of Immediately forgetting anything
they do in the office, and carry no un-
comfortable secrets about with them. y
Miss Matae b. Cleveland of Chicago
president of the Retail Association
said: Business women need midday
rest and social relaxation as arelicf
from the intensity of life. That is what
they will find in these rooms
President Mckinley sent con-
gratulatory telegram.
John Balloon Shaw put in a warning
against the growing inidelty among
women. He spoke especially of college
women, and attributed 1t to a growing
tendency to pedantry.
The club quarters include dining, re-
ception and dressing rooms, kitchen
and serving room and Offices Table
d'hote and a la carte lunches will be
served daily. An employment exchange
will be conducted to assist business
women in getting positions. The rooms
for the first month will be open to al
business women. After that to clul

The Cossacks of the Don.

The Don CossackS are the finest look
ing race of men ever seen. Kingly in
their carriage, tall and slender, 1.-the
and graceful, their untamed spirit viSi-
bic in every motion, their bearing is
that of an unconquered people. Used
as a living barrier against the Tartar
invasions of Russia, they were never
conquered. Living in what they call
camps, each with his horse and gun,
they are always ready to move in re-
sponse to the emperor's call.
Their costume is Il long, tight fitting
coat reaching to the knee, having loose
sleeves and a small, standing collar
and with row of ammunition pockets
across the breast. The colored belt
which encircles the Cossack's slender
waist bristles with ornamented knives,
daggers and pistols. Soft, high boots
without heels and a great lambs wool
cap, with a little touch of color for
the soft crown, and then the burka or
long cape of hairy felt which they seem
to wear in all sorts of weather COM
plete the costume. These burkas ap-
pear to be worn on the theory that
what keeps out the cold keeps out the
heat. Anyway, these long black or
white garments protect horse and rider
equally from the rain and cold.--Self
