with all this they cant move the

too good to sacrifice now, or even

hauling the grain until the divis-

wheat ears already awaiting to be
forwarded.

binary mortals, that property is, after ALL possible
only as far as protection is positive and reliable All
classes of people respect their own government
whether they understand it or not. and everybody
would rejoice at the ability and opportunity to pay
taxes If, when taxes due the reasons for taxa
ton and the grace OF possession are made the sub
jects of some meditation.
Speed the time when the tax-dodger, who avoids
his dues, and the perjurer, who gives false testimony
as to the value of his property, will be condemned
by public opinion and be denied the privilege of cit
izenship; when every one will look upon taX-paying
as respectful acknowledgment that the possession
of property rests upon the guarantee of government
and when the payment Of taxes will be confirmed rs
a privilege of patriotism There are two ways of
haying good goyernment-paying just taxes and vot-
ing at all elections; contempates the election of
capable honest men, and the other aims to provide
them with means to rightly administer public affairs

The original or aboriginal Eve, presumably, in adj

or aboriginal milliner History ON the point vague
Nevertheless judging by the extent to which the mind
feminine to-day revels in the subject of headgear it
follows that while in the Garden of Eden yet unde-
graded to the mundane plane, Eve was conscious Of
disturbing Influence something other than the long
ing for the fatcful apple. 1t was the unformulatet
but irrepressible yearning for a hat.
1t must be remembered that the Garden was de
signed as home of perfect happiness for Adam For
this reason it follows that Eve could not define her
uneasy longing For the same reason 1t follows that
no mirrors were in the Garden since reflector at
once would have suggested the lack and because mir
rors and women's hats are intimately connected Ger
tanly, if the angels in charge of this Maynard pair
had permitted Eve to think out and explain the mat
ter, Adams life would have been far from serene
and joyous existence. Day in and day out the poor
man would have been Shaving away, ransacking the
remote corners Of the Garden in search of
ments for bonnets.
After the expulsion, we know that part Of the pun
shment lay in yoking the couple with the pressing
cares Of matteroffact life Very likely then, when

PAYING TAXES.

Taxpayers will this year. on real, personal and
quaspublic property situated in St Louis contribute
about 100000 to the city, the State, the public
schools the public library and other institutions of
public character Perhaps the city pays relatively
more than its fair proportion to the States but other
wise there is no general cause for remonstrance
against the assessments. So far as the values are
concerned they are, in consequence of the judgment
and fairness Of President O'Brien of the Board of
Assessors, equitable than they have ever been
before.
Without revenue the government cannot be MAIN
tanned, public improvements cannot be made and
necessary conveniences cannot be provided. The rev.
enue for the support of the government must be
quired on an equitable basis from those who ben
Gifted by established government, and experience
has demonstrated that systematic taxation is the most
rational and practical method for getting the requisite
funds The ultimate purpose Of taxation is not to de-
rive monetary favors from the citizens but receive
sufficient money to maintain the government and con
fer benefits on the community.
The time win come, when the duties and benefits of
community living thoroughly understood when the
payment Of taxes will be deemed of the noblest
privileges of citizenship. In that day it will be con-
sidered disreputable for individual corporation
to make false returns property values and dis
honorable for person concern to fail in the duty
Of assisting to the extent defined by law in the man-
tenance Of organized government.
Large taxes are assessed against individuals and
institutions whose possessions large and small
taxes against those whose ownings are small This
principle prevails not because the wealthy can better
afford to bear the expense Of government but princi
pay because the title in property prescribes accord
Ing to the value Of the property the proportion Of pro-
lection that Is received through government Although
the man who pays only dollar in taxes realizes
voff that
