A PRETTY TRINkET-Eox.
Select Strong Box and Cover 1t Care
fully with Material to Be
DECORATED.


This is a dainty Dox, the orramenta-
tion of which may be painting or em-
broidering on satin, or poker work on
velvet. A wooden or strong card
board box, such as is used for choco-
late, win answer well for the plIr-
pose of ornamentation. ii4
The cover of our model is pale green
satin, painted with design Of pink pop
pies. For the painting use aquarelle
medium, with Croissant colors, as
these will not peel off nor crack.
IL preferred. the design might be
embroidered on the satin. with
dlo floss or filoselle, used two
strands together; the design may be
outlined and lightly veined or be
worked solid, as preferred The satin
for the top should be cut large enough

to turn over the edge; for the sides,
it should just fit. The sides are or
namented with single poDpies and
leaves. Put a thin layer Of wadding
over the sides, then stretch on the
satin, fixing it with colorless glue or
seccotine; a layer of wadding must also
be put over the top of lid before the
satin is put on, as it gives a richer
appearance to the satin than If laid
on the wood. Line the inside either
with bookbinder's paper of some pretty
color, or with satin over a layer of
wadding. The latter will, of course,
give the box a more dainty appear
ance.
Finish the edges with a ruching OF
narrow ribbon, either to match the
color of the poppies or the satin.
These narrow ribbon ruches can be
bought ready made in many colors;
but it would be quite easy TO plait
or gather ribbon up to form the ruche.
Il must be fixed by tiny tacks. or could
be sewn on, taking the stitches
through the satin.

provision made for a Board Of Equali-
zation FOR any CITY, but provision Is
made therein for Board Of Equaliza-
tion Of each county consisting OF three
citizens, qualified electors Of such
county TO be appointed by the COVER
ner every two years, and iU is provided
in Section S06 of Mansfeld's Digest
that the council Of any municipal cor
poration may, on or before the time
fixed by law for levying county taxes,
make out and certify to the county
clerk the rate OF taxation levied by
said municipal corporation on the
property within such city or town,
and that the amount so certified shall
be placed upon the tax book by the
county clerk of the county and collect
ed in the same manner that state and
county taxes are collected, and in Sec
tion 800, it is provided that the county
collector shall pay over to the city
treasurer Of any municipal corpora
tion all moneys received by him aris-
ing from taxes belonging to such cor
poratlon.
Now, under the law, the Northern
District is regarded as county.
There are nc county officials, such as
county clerk, county collector, etc.
There is no governor to appoint a
Board Of Equalization of the county,
and the scheme laid ont in the chap
ter edtitled Revenue" is wholly IN
applicable to the conditions existing
in this district, and we are driven at
once TO Section IA of the Curtis Act
for authority to levy and collect taxes
in this district. Said section provides
in terms that the city council Of such
may provide byordinance
for the assessment, levy and collection
Of tax. In what does the assessment
of tax consist? BOuvier's Law Die
tionary defines assessment as 1.-THE

fixing its value or appraisement. "
The ordinance Of the City Of Vinita
provision for the assessment
Of the taxes by providing Board Of
as one Of the means OF
liking the valuation or appraisement
Of property in Vinita. Under Section
73l, heretofore quoted providing for
officers of the town, authority is given
TO create such officers as may be nee
essary for the business of said city,
and it is the opinion Of the Court that
the ordinance IN question, not only is
legal, but that the city was fully au-
thorized under the law to provide for
D Board Of Equalization by appoint
msnt of the Mayor and this being
the opinion Of tile Court, the demurr-

Unconsciously, most English men
aad womel have been thinking in
-lillions ever since the American and
mining millionairies have come to the
rsont--and that is one of the nam
causes Of the distress which exists
throughout the country. IN the West
End most men of moderate means
have been living as if a vast fortune
was awaiting them in the immediate
future. their wives and daughters have
dressed considerably beyond their al
lowance; and in the city the average
business man win not consider a pro-
posal that affords no prospect Of profit
on a large scale.--London Graphic

machine. Early in the 18TH century we
have record of a monk trying to fly, using
for this purpose a pair of wings. The
machinery broke down, but this did not
prevent others from trying again, with
similar results. The discovery of the
balloon was due to Stephen and Joseph
Montgolher, F~renchmen, who, on the
9Th ofJune 1888, made the first balloon
ascension.
