May Tax Transient Merchants.

Transient merchants can be re-
quired to pay license tax in cities,
according to the decision of the SUI
preme court This decision was made
in the suit of E. Zandition and E. e.
Shoaf against the city of Lebanon,
in Smith county, which was appealed
to the higher court. Lebanon has an
ordinance providing that a transient
merchant cannot retail any articles of
merchandise usually kept for sale by
any merchant or manufacturer in that
city unless he pays a license of $40
day. Zandition and Schoaf, were mer-
chants who procured bankrupt and
salvage stocks and then took them to
p town, rented a store room for few
weeks and held special sales of these
goods. They refused to pay the Ii
cense in Lebanon and were fined
They appealed to the supreme court
on the ground that cities did not have
the right to make any such license
charges. But the supreme court
holds that this right is especially con-
ferred upon cities as long as the IL
cense fees are just and reasonable

half cents a pound for orders of 5000
pounds and more and nine cents
pound for orders for less than this
amount. This price is a quarter of

price is cent and a half lower than
the trust price for Irvine and means
a big saving TO the farmers of Kansas

HAPPY MARRIAGES.
Value Of the Spirit of Compromise In
Welded Life.

WecCcC Lire.
II marriage meant the wedding of
a saint and az angel there would be
no problems to solve, no projections to
attain, no progress to make. This may
be why there are no marriages in
heaven.
On earth IL is different Husband
and wife are strongly human. No mat
ter how lovingly united or how sweet
their accord, they never have the same
temperaments, tendencies or tastes.
Their needs are different, their man.
ner of looking at things is not identical
and in varying ways their individuals
ties assert themselves. At any critical
moment if both express at the same
time a desire to defer to the others
taste the result is foreordained-hap-
piness. This makes matrimony not
merely union, but unison and unity.
The spirit of compromise does not
mean a continuous performance in the
way of self surrender and self sacri-
flee; it does not mean ceasing to be a
voice and becoming an echo; 1T does
not imply or justify the loss of indi-
viduality. 1t means simply the in
stinctive recognition of the best way
out of a difficulty, the quickest lacking
to avoid a collision, the kindly view of
tolerance in the presence of weakness
and errors of another, the courage to
meet an explanation half way, the gen.
crosby to be first TO apologize for a dis
cord, the largeness of mind that does
not fear sacrifice of dignity in sur
rendering in the interests of the high
est harmony of the two rather than the
personal vanity .-Delineator.

"Are You a Masone--oennett.

plains the great success of Are You

the troubles of an elderly gentleman

count for their frequent absences from
home pretend 10 be Free Masons. The
farcial possibilities of the piece are oh
vious. To these are added a new YER
sion of the central idea in "Charley's

ideas, each replete with fun. When
this play was first produced in London

Rarely has a theater resigned itself
to such boisterous mirth as that which

titled that their wages. which are now
from $50 to $50 a month, will be re-
duced on October 1st, when the law
takes effect in this state limiting their
working hours to eight a day. The
excuse is that the effect is to require
the employment of a greater number of
men for the service and therefore the
railroads cannot afford to continue
present wages.
