DUB EFFETE TAKING SYSTEM.

The State Of New York has probably
the most modern and scientific system
of taxation of any tax entity in the
world There is in New York no such
thing as a general State tax on property.
The tax on franchises. the mortgage
tax, stock-sales taxation, and various
other sources of revenue that are com.
monty omitted or diverted to local chan
nels without much return, yield large
revenues to that State. The close of
New York's fiscal year is September
30th, The balance in the State treasury
on that day was nearly 100000 The
total receipts of the State for the year
aggregated S49,000.000, aud the ex-
penditures but little below $47 900, 900.
The mortgage tax brought in $I.700,.
600, and the stock transfer tax $3.475,.
600. The State g Indebtedness amounts
TO $26 $50 $50, and the sinking funds pro-
vided to pay these debts contain at the
present time over l5,000,000. SO that

good deal of its money through non-co!-

oATH-swoRN PROMISE BROKEN.

Senator Depew-As new revelations are
received, are they. embodied In the new
edition OF the Book OF Mormon?
Joseph r. Sm,th-No revelations that
are received are put in the Book OF Nor
mon-none whatever, The Book OF Nor
mon Is a complete work In itself In the
Book OF Doctrine and Covenants. II the
Lord should reveal His mind TO His peo-
pie and It should be accepted by His
people In the way that He has appointed,
1t would then become q matter To be
added TO the Book OF Doctrine and Cow
enauts.-Testimony In Snnoot case. volume
!. page 4s9.
All the testimony delivered at Wash
ington by high officials of the Mormon
church is to the effect that the mani
festo Of 1890 was a revelation from
the Almighty to President Wilford
Woodruff. That revelation was pre-.
| sented TO the October conference of
1890 and it was unanimously accepted
and adopted by the vote OF the church.
Subsequently it was presented to the
different stake conferences, aud was
by these confirmed az revelation for
the guidance Of the whole body. That

alleged heavenly communication be-
! comes entitled to a place in the Doc
trine and Covenants.
! Joseph F. Smith s attention was
called TO the fact that the manifesto
was still omitted from the law book
Of the church, although at that time
about fourteen years had passed since
it was adopted by the church. Presi-
dent Smith pretended that the omission

and that he would have it inserted in
| the very next edition OF the book. That
was over four years ago, and other
! editions have been uhlished-among
! them being one without date-but the
manifesto still remains out of the pub.
| lication.
What is the reason for this' The
answer is very simple. The Woodruff
manifesto inhibits the PRACTICE of
polygamy. Polygamy is tho one "priu-
ciple' OF doctrine in the church that
is dearest to the Smith heart Joseph
T. is anxious that its practice shall be
continued, and be leaves the Doctrine
and Covenants in its present form to
! give color of authority for any new
polygamous marriage that has oc-
cured since the issuance of the mani
festo. or which may be celebrated in
tho hereafter. AS the law appears in
the Doctrine and Covenants. Joseph T.
Smith Gas the chief of the church, and
! the one most highly bound TO enforce
the law of the church) can not con-
sistently discipline or e1eommunicate
any new polygamist--and no new polyg.
amist has been so dealt with. The law
in the book does not permit such ac-
J ton.
Do you not see that there is no real
intention to abandon polyeamy. and
that the chief priests are allowing op-
\ portunity for its perpetuation because
/ that is their own desire?

the men imprisoned in Carthage Jail. AS
Wilford Woodruff declares. the men who
plotted against the lives of Joseph and
Hyrum Smith were Mormons; they were
present at tho Mormon meeting of
which he speaks; they showed their
guilt in their faces when publicly ac-
cused by Joseph. And. significant to
note, Apostle Woodruff says that the
sermon in which the accusation was
made was one Of the last the founder
of Mormonism ever delivered! II only

effect than for actual warmth. II Is
essential now to wear a coat or sim
liar wrap over any dressy costume.
An afternoon gown without such a
covering has an unfinished look.
Bands and strappings of silk are effec-
tive when applied In tailor fashion on
a wolfe coat made after the figure four
model. A band at least an inch wide
should be used to finish all the edges
of the coat 1t is a little too much
to outline the graduated pocket flaps
in the same way. SILK button loops
applied in diagonal lines look well,
and the covered button molds should
be graduated to suit the size Of the
pocket flaps.
Many of these odd coats, in fact the
majority of the sleeveless models,
open all the way from under the arm
holes to the bottom at the sides. A
band of trimming or an extension cut
all in one with the front forms a suf-
ficient connecting link between the
two parts Of the coat without spelling
the effect Of airiness and looseness.
A cloth coat needs only bands of
braid or satin for trimming, while
figured silk or cretonne coat would
not look we'll with anything more elab-
crate than this finish. Even the neck
is quite simple, being cut in a point
that suggests tiny revers, only instead
of being applied there is a space
through which the dress shows. A
wolfe coat made in this fashion and
worn with a silk costume would look
dainty and graceful, while a cretonne
coat of the same cut would have
smarter air and one suggestive of the
French period, when lowered fabrics
were the vogue and long coats were
seen on all charming women.

dampen the end of a towel with the

When there are blackheads they
should be removed Immediately after
the steaming with a little instrument
which comes for the purpose. The
face should not be steamed more than
once a week; it can be massaged as
often as necessary.
When treating for pimples, the
pimple cream should be used for the
massage. For wrinkles, use the regu-
lar massage cream.
Remember that massage cannot be
learned theoretically and can never

other but those who cannot secure

HANDBAGS for Summer,

The newest of the summer hand
bags are of white filet net over white
pique. One of these smart little af-
fairs can easily be made at home If
the brass or nickel clasp is bought.
The bag proper is of pique, with a
covering of the net over white linen.
The net is of rather fine square mesh
filet, braided on both sides with an
all-over design of soutache braid.
The handles are of a heavier braid
and are attached to the ends of the
net on each corner. This makes a
loose flap on each side of the bag,
the clasp of which is slightly below
the embroidered covering.

of benzoin. Once each week treat the
face according to these directions:
Apply the cleansing cream all over
the face and throat with the tips of
the fingers; wipe off at once with a
