eight months of the past year during
which it was in operation During the

Congress that will tax these medloinea'
 solely on a basis of the alcohol ecx1~
 tents. One proposition that has ra~|
 ceived indorsement is that a inaxi-
 mum of alcohol will be allowed to rM~ tent medicines before they can be ttxr ed, say 90 per cent This is abqus six times more alcohol than is cp1tained in domestic beer, which pays a heavy tax.
 Commissioners Yerkes win base hi1 action in many cases on 1the feet well known to collectors Of internal reve- nue, that certain medicines and f1av~ bring extracts and essences are sold in prohibition communities almost openly for the alcohol they contain.
 Letters have reached the once of tho Commissioner indicating that in many prohibition communities. nofa~ bly, Kansas. the patent medicine habit has become as confirmed as the co- caine habit among Chinese. Many keeps in splendid health. not to say spirits. on his morning and evening doses of paiatable patent med icine, many of which are compounds of local druggists who understand tha local demands and meet them with just the right sort of preparation.
 Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont furnish customers for millions of bot ties of widely advertised compounda that bring sunshine to the afflicted soul and banish pains and aches.

BEATING A WIFE PROPERLY.

Some Portions of the world stin Be- hind on Prevailing Styles. Denver Republican.
 Tn the State of Oregon there 10 a whipping post for the purpose of doing unto wife beaters as they have done including q country postmaster. have fallen victims to the Oregon lash. The oId-time Idea that wife beating Is a necessity for preservation of domestic peace and happiness has thus received q severe setback.
 still considered necessary for the lov- ing husband to infiict q certain amount of chastisement upon his wife. The custom is an old one. and an African explorer relates that he once found duslxy woman crying as though her heart would break because she had not been beaten by her husband for so long that she felt he had ceased to love her. And even in Great Britain there are men who fancy that the problem of how to thrash a wife Is one of vital signifcance A Leith magistrate speaking from the bench on recent assault case, said: If a woman re- should take a strap to her, and not use his hand"
 So observe that wife beating is con- sidered proper, and even necessary, in some parts of Great Britain. If a man strikes his wife with his hand. he will. indeed, be guilty of assault. But If he closes his fist upon strap he may make his wife feel its bitter sting to his hearts content.
 This procedure. however, Is not likely to take firm root in America. For. strange as it may seem to one familiar with the history of marriage institu- tions and marriage customs, the women of the United States have long mani fested certain qualities quite at vari- ance with the once customary feminine spirit. In America the women are rap- idly becoming arbiters of our destiny. The coarse, rough work they leave to men, but they insist on teaching the schools, intoxicating the ethics, writing the books and monopolizing the culture. Nor will they for a moment admit that their husbands have any right to lay a hand. or even a. strap, upon them, when they pursue a course disobedient to the husbands will. It is even getting fashionable to strike out that word l ''obey" from the marriage service. | American husband of the future will | agree to speak the word against which l the feminine lips rebel.

 Commissioner Yerkes is making preparations to put into affect on De- cember 1, next. his order requiring dealers in and manufacturers or patent medicines of distinct alcoholic proper ties and of various essences that are so freely consumed in prohibition com munities to pay license as liquor deal CTS.
 MT. Yerkes has had some curious correspondence with the patent medi-
 cine and essence manufacturers and
 has received calls from representatives
 of a number of these concegns. He
 admits that he may have difficu1ty in
 drawing the line between these conn
 pounds containing too much whiskey
 and too little medicine, and those hav-
 ing some medicine value.
 He has received numerous tips"
 from the manufacturers of whiskey compounds that if he decides their mixtures contain too much whiskey termed medicine. they will promptly throw in another handful or two of herbs of harmless nature and thereby reduce the proportion of whiskey Some of them say plainly they have no idea of letting up in their widespread advertising in newspapers and else- where, and that they will circumvent the decison fin each case by adding more medicine. thereby. if possible. com ing within the line that must be drawn.

Even in our show houses 1t IS only necessary to state that the play ing company consists mostly of girls and the crowd runs with frantic eager ness to view the wonderful spectacle. Shakespeare spells ruin. and the actor goes bankrupt. But the actress, like Tennyson's brook. seems destined to go on forever.
 What! Strike a manv said Dr. Charming when the custom of dogging in the navy was brought to his atten- ton. An increase in the humanitarian spirit abolished the practice. And now the habit of beating one's wife is be- coming obsolete. To what is this decay of old-time habit due? Principally to the growing belief that the American woman Is the central fact of existence. the supreme glory of evolution.

A MOUNTAIN OF LILIES.
sown Ten Years Ago by Luther Eur,
 bank, a Californian.

sown Ten Years Ago by Luther Eur bank, Californian.
 1 New York Herald.
 On a mountain top. 1000 feet above sea level. in the northern section of California, in a cline particularly suited to their development. thousands of the fairest of lilies have been bloom ing. For a decade they have been planted there. and every year has seen the number of bulbs increase until the place can almost be termed a lilly ranch.' The lilies are Burbank crea- tions. and to this selected climate and soil they were sent by Luther Burbank eight or ten years ago and were taken in charge by a competent man intrusted with the work of growing them by Burbank.
 Few people know of the location of the ranch, or that there was such flower garden in the mountains. Bur- bank was absent from town a couple of days this week and during his ab- sence he travelled many miles by rail- road and stage to reach the place where the lilies grow. Three or four years have elapsed since he was last able to visit the place. but he found that the man in charge had everything right.
 The lilies are all hybrids. They came from forty different species. many of them of almost priceless value. They were crossed and recrossed and care fully selected before they were sent to their mountain home to multiply, In order that they might be undisturbed as they are being now to mankind.
 Some time ago it was mentioned that Burbank had received letters from sew eral of the European monarchs asking him for information about his work. He graeiously replied to the inquiries and today q personal reply came from one of the crowned heads, thanking Burbank for his courtesy and informa- tion This reply from king mentioned particularly the thornless castus
 Another letter in @ recent mall is one of special interest. It came from far off Siam. The writer informs Burbank that he may expect consignment of seeds and bulbs from Siam. with which he is asked to experiment.
 Mir. Burbank has received from Ja- pan a newspaper containing an essay he wrote. It is printed in Japanese and English.
 The seeds of the rubber plant sent Burbank from Colorado some time ago have nourished into plants. What he can accomplish with them remains to be seen, but something must come in the line of improvement from the exer- else of his genius
