FRENCH PRESIDENTS GUARDS
Safety of the Executive of
France.

The Paris municipal council has re-
fused to pay any longer for the po-
lice protection of the president OF
the republic, hitherto betrayed by
the taxpayers, says the Philadelphia
Telegraph, on the ground that this is
an item of national and not municipal
expenditure. The municipal police
have been withdrawn from the Ely
see. In their stead is staff Of de-
tectives belonging to the surete gen.
erale, section under the ministry
of the interior. The older members
of the Elysee police staff, unwilling
to sever their connections with the
Elysee, have resigned their municipal
appointment and joined the new
force. The cost Of protecting the
president is s13,5Oo a year. Twelve
detectives, styled by courtesy in
spectors, are employed for this pur-
pose. Their Office Is under the gate
way of the Elysee, on the Faubourg-
Saint-Honore, and they are taking
their orders from the presidents
civil secretary.
The brigade has DO easy task. It
accompanies the president on all his
travels and at least a couple of de-
tectives shadow him on his morning
walks to the Bots de Boulogne. M.
Casimir-Perier could never bear this
police surveillance, and more than
once he gave his detectives the slip,
much to the annoyance of the pre-
feet of police. Felix Faure looked
upon them as most useful and de-
serving men. President Loubet
thinks they are a necessary evil.

FEEDING A SKELETON.
An Old Scotch story from Which
Scores of American Farmers Can
Draw a Lesson.

A story is told of Scotch physician
who was in search of boy with suf-
ficient nerve to assist him when diff
cult surgical operations were on hand.
The doctor, by the way, was a ven
triloquist, and he hit upon the follow
ing plan to enable him to secure the
boy he was looking for: Each candi-
late was set to work to feed Cruel to
a skeleton which stood in an adjacent
room. No sooner had the boy got to
work than the doctor would call out
in sepulchral tones: "More, give me
more" The voice sounded to the boy
as though it came from the skeleton.
A number of those first tried, as soon
as they heard the sepulchral tones,
dropped the bowl of Cruel and ran.
At length a boy was found who con-
tinued to feed the cruel, notwithstand-
ing the repeated cries of the skeleton
for more. When the Cruel was all fed
he struck the skeleton on the side of
the head with the spoon, saying as he
did so: "My, Bony, but you are hard
to satisfy" This boy got the posi-
ton.
We laugh at the idea of feeding a
skeleton, but are not some persons
engaged in just about as profitable
business? They feed live stock all the
winter, that is to say, young and
growing stock. The animals go out
in the spring just about as they went
into the yard in the fall. The chief
difference is that they have a little
more bone and hair in the spring and
a little less flesh. Sometimes they
have considerably less in the spring
than in the fall. Those persons have
been about as profitably employed as
the boy who was feeding the skeleton,
and the food fed to those animals ac-
complished about as much for those
who fed them as the food fed to the
skeleton accomplished for the owner
of the same. So it is with all growing
animals. The food fed to- them is
wasted when they make no growth

WHERE wIDOWERS ARE TAXED
on the Island of MindanaO In
the Philippines.

One of the Philippine tribes en-
forces a widow tax" The law gov
erning it was undoubtedly founded
on more than superficial knowledge
of human nature, and is productive
of advantages which even a western
er can see.
Marriage in haste" among the
Tagacoalos, of Mindanao, therefore,
leads to a very prolonged and literal
"repenting at leisure"
Upon the death of his wife the
widower must pay a certain sum of
money or a certain amount of goods
to his father-in-law before he is en-
titled to look about for an eligible
successor to the deceased. With
them money, as we know, is a rare ar
ticle, and the usual means of barter
is by plates of the ordinary IRON
stone patterns. One hundred of
these is considered ample payment
to the bereaved parents.
On the other hand, if the husband
dies, the widow at once becomes the
slave of her parents-in-law, and so
remains for life unless some relative
comes forward and produces the
requisite payment.
The natural result of this rule IS
that all married people are extreme
ly solicitous of each others health
and welfare. In sickness the invalid
is scrupulously attended TO by hus-
band or wife, who is perhaps haunt
ed more by thought of those 100
plates than by fear of a death in the
family.
Divorce they know not, but polyga-
my is universal, and a man may have
as many wives as his means will per-
NIT of. Therefore in case of death
of much-married man his parents
either have enough slaves to render
future work on their part unneces-
sary or else they are in position to
open up crockery store. A cheap
means of life insurance. This pay
ment is called 'cabaloan," or "the
widow tax"
