Do soT RE MrsLEn.

The reading public must refuse to be
nisled by amy device which may be
resorted to, through the press or other
wise, to divert attention from the frauds
already shown to have been perpetrated
in the abatement and refundment of
taxes.
Where an abatement or refundment of
taxes is secured lawfully and honestly
there is no legitimate criticism to be
made on the transaction The amount of
such abatement, whether great or small,
does not of itself cut any figure or reflect
discreditably on those securing it.
It is not at all unlikely that those who
are found to have been engaged by
fraudulent means in depriving the state
of It's taxes, or otherwise misusing Of
fetal information so as to secure illegttl-
mate gain may try to confuse the
public mind on this score.
Enough has alreody been shown to
establish clearly the wrong-doing of Of
ticiaIs and individuals amounting in GER
tain cases to criminal operations. If
the distinction is clearly borne in mind
between such transactions and those
wherein the tax-paylng public or the
property owning citizen is defrauded of
money, there can be no confusion
The G l o b e recognizes that taxes have
been lawfully and justly abated on prop
erty. These transactions are proper, and
can have been secured only through the
full compliance with the rigid require
ments of the law. Any attempt to rep
resent such transactions as in any sense

ALL. A MATTER OF FoRM

It seems that our amiable contem-
+ porary, the Dispatch. is not up on anato-
my, if the New York Journal is to be
| accepted as authority. In a recent issue
! the Dispatch expressed it's pleasure, as
we'll as it's contempt, for conventionaIity
in the following:
'"The Dispatch notes with pleasure the
arrival of the woman who is plucl1y
enough to defy conventionaIity, sensible
/ enough to discard a foolish custom and
| bestrtde a horse as nature. designed be-
lore false modesty, or, as some say,
/ fashion set by deformed queen, who
! could not ride astride, set all women
who rode to sitting cramped and ungain-
! ~ on Side-Saddle For all that one can
| see, this woman may be riding sidewise
! the divided skirts lending aid to that
impression, but the upright form and
/ firm seat dispel the impression if form
ed -
This riding astride may look pretty.
We agree with the Dispatch in that We
also take pleasure in seeing a woman
astride of a spirited steed, even if it be
but dummy at a merry-go-round, but
there is danger in the practice, a very
great danger, as will be seen from what
follows from the New York Journal:
LOVELY women. you may as well make

The gems are all Of the first water-beau>

OF high polish But the setting is
something to make angels weep. In
recent article the learned writer conclud-
ed to use the word ''malodorous." Now,
nlalodorous is an expressive word; more
than that, it is one of those words which
roll from the tongue with a liquid CUR
gle, mixed with a dignity that is per-
feetly Irresistible. It had to be used
on June the Sth, that was settled. If
day passed it might be forgotten and
all the work of looking it up would be
dead loss. The situation was desperate,
but the Times carpenter of words rose
to the occasion, as follows: eff you

TO sTop SUNDAY COLE

A movement was set on foot last week
in New York to stop Sunday golf
Just why golf should be chosen
as the especial object of the Sabbath
rams wrath does not clearly appear. The
pious end of any community is liable to
just such spasms at any time. There
seems to be no cause other than innate
cussedness on the part of the agitators.
In nearly every state there are laws to
prohibit nearly everything but preaching
on Sunday. If these laws were enforced,
the street cars and the railroad trans
would have to stop Saturday night at
u o'clock no matter where they happen
ed to be. Candy, ice cream and cigar
stands would have to close Drug stores
could not be opened. Walking, riding
and boating for pleasure would be indulg-
ed in at the risk of fine and Imprisonment
Libraries and picture galleries would be
closed to the public and a pail of re-
ligiou5 gloom would settle over the bright
est Of Gods landscapes.
The flowers would put on their most
gorgeous raiment and send forth their
most Intoxicating perfumes; the bees
would keep at their wonte6 labor; the
birds would sing of life and happiness;
the ants would build and the squirrels
would garner their winters store, while
over all the sun would smile a benedic-
Of b
man-n1ade laws for the government of the
first day of the week
He who attempts to make of Sunday
a day of mental of physical torture; he
who would repress the innocent bubbling
( of life that seeks the freedom of the
air and the soothing caresses of the sun;
he who would prevent man woman or
child from indulging in any innocent rec
reatfon, golf, riding, boating, picknick-
ing under the. leafy trees, beside the
laughing waters Or the purIing brook,
desecrated the day that nature has set
apart for the recreation of both mind
and body. The right to attend church,
three times per day, If necessary, should
be held inviolate. Let no man question
the right to worship in any form that
best pleases the soul of the wershiper.
But let it be remembered that there are
anthems of praise in the songs of BIRDS
and in the soft signing of the breeze;
there are sermons in stones; the very
hills proclaim the glory of God and the
nodding forest showeth His handiwork;
there are prayers in the warm sunshine
| and in the gently tapping waters of the
lake. The squirrel ehattering from his
perch high among the boughs, the eagle
balancing on level wing a speclz in the
blue empyrean and the cricket chirping
his ceaseless song, each procIaims the
universal brotherhood of all living things.
The hills were Gods first temples
When the heart is sore man turns to ma
ture as the tired child turns to it's
mother. We would not descry the church
and it's ministering benedictions-it has.

DRESS THEIR CRN WOUNDS.
Some Birds That Possess Great knowledge Of
Surgery.

There are not a few birds that
possess a knowledge of the prin-
ciples of surgery that is not far
from supernatural. The wood
cock, the partridge and some
other birds are able to dress
their wounds with considerable
skill. A french naturalist says
that on several occasions he has
killed woodcock that were, when
shot, convalescing from wounds
previously received. In every
instance he found the old injury
neatly dressed with down pluck
ed from the stem of feathers and
skillfully arranged over the
wound evidently by the long
beak of the bird. In some in.
stances a solid plaster was thus
formed, and in others ligatures
had been applied to wounded or
broken limbs.
One day he killed a bird that
evidently had been severly
wounded at some recent period.
The wound was covered andpro-
tected by a sort of network OF
feathers which had been plucked
by the bird from it's own body
and so arranged as to form a
plaster completely covering and
protecting the wounded surface.
It had evidently acted as hemo-
static in the first place and sub
sequently as a shield covering
the wound. The feathers were
fairly netted together, passing
alternately under and above each
other and forming a textile fab
ric of great protective power.
Birds are often found whose
limbs have been broken by shot
with the fractured ends neatly
Joined and ligated. M. Dumon-
tell tells Of a woodcock that had
been shot by a sportsman on the
afternoon of a certain day. At
ter long search the bird was
taken up, but it was discovered
the next morning by anaccident.
In the meantime the wounded
legs were found to be neatly
ligated, and exqisitely neat ban.
dage having been placed around
eacn limb. The poor bird had
in dressing it's wound entangled
it's beak with some long, soft
feathers, and had it not been
discovered it would have died OF

THE POULTRY YARD.

Gravel or coarse sand is as much
needed as ordinary food.
All chickens want for health, growth
and good conditions is plain, nutritious
food.
Even when the fowls have an un!im-
tied range 1t is good plan 10 feed
them every evening.
One Of the first things to learn about
poultry is that they must be kept clean
and free from vermin.
Peafowls a,e handsome and subsist
with the least care OF any kind OF
fowls. They are prolific layers ard &
good protection against hawks.
Raw bone contains every part o. an
egg-white, yolk and shell. Therefore
it should be kept constantly before lay
ing hens in the granulated form.
One of the best ways Of removing lice
from fowls is to make them Go it them
selves by having q lot of dry earth
where they can dust themselves When
ever they feel like it.
Tie comb is always an index to the
condition Of the bird. When the comb
is white CT very pale or very black,
something is wrong. a healthy fowl
shows a bright scarlet color in the
comb
