We call the attention of our readers
to the advertisement of ST. Mary's
Academy, which appears in another
column of this paper We do not need

tages of st. Mary's, for the catalogue
Of the school shows the scope of work
included in its curriculum, which is
Of the same high standard as that Of
Vassar and Bryn Mawr, and is carried
out faithfully in the class rooms. We
simply emphasize the spirit of earnest
devotion which makes every teacher
Of st. Marys loyalty strive to develop
each young girl attendant there into
the truest, noblest, and most intelligent
wOmanhOod. Every advantage of
equipment in the class rooms, labora-
tories and study rooms. every care in
the matter of food and clothing, and
exceptional excellence of climatic con-
ditions-all these features are found at
st. Mary's, in the perfection Of develop

Mrs. Judge McAllister writes from
1917 West 33rd ST., Minneapolis, Mimi,

Tho COWBOY Was Generous.

Millionaire McKittrick, who. as all
California knows, is the king OF the

of southern California, was leaving
his ranch to drive into town the other
day. when he was accosted by one of
his cowpunchers, who had been on
the job about fortnight Say, boss"
said the cowboy, ''can I draw $10?"
Mr.. McKittrick was about 10 refer the
man to the foreman, but, being good

said the cowboy; 81 want you TO get

Charmed by the gall OF his employee,
the millionaire took the commission.
He returned late at night loaded down
like Santa Claus, sought out the cow
puncher, delivered the goods, saying:
1T cost only eight-fifty. Here's the
dollar and a half left over"
"Oh, that's all right" said the gener-
Gus cowboy, keep the change!

France AMI the Income Tax.

The most important event recently
In France from a political point OF
view was the finance minister's demoli-
ton of the scheme for imposing an
income tax. One of the first acts Of
the new budget committee in the
chamber was to vote a proposition that
the minister should insert In his esti-
mates for 1902 the principle of tax
on incomes, leaving the rate and m tn
cd Of assessment to be afterward ar
ranged. They promised in return the
suppression of two Of the direct taxes
the habitation tax and that on doors
and windows The budget COMMITTEES
Of the French senate is as much op-
posed to an income tax as the finance
minister. With steadily increasing
outgo, and diminishing income, how
ever. the financial problem in France is
becoming serious. With his budget
last year NJ Cailleaux made a warn
ing address. and eloquently pleaded
for economy. This year. with an in
crease equal to $4,000, 600 he did not
renew his plea.-Chicago Journal.

The girl, when he went, proceeded
deftly to cleaning the table and plac-

order they taught at the school. 1t

of other emotions there was never a
sign.
Day after day she returned, not
alone. Her mother went begging at
other of the cabins. With hands ca
ressful-and rounded hands of dim

these kitchen possessions fondly and

He looked at her astonished. Where
in the world did you learn your Eng

She blushed beneath the softened
bronze of her rounded cheeks, and the
lashes drew her eyelids timidly down
to curtain the wide-open orbs of dark
and lustrous onyx.

glance that resembled the questioning

himself a blow on the breast, yet be

The woman was speechless. She
