mated AT 800. Like the drainag,
schemes there WAS opposition. OF

The first levy for taxes to make
payment ON the cont ract was made IN
1870. Many landowners refused Ia
pay the tax, and the county collect OF

were sold and barely brought the
costs of suit.

been issued which We're seemingly le.

Comfortable Pockets.

We are no longer the pocketiess sex,
as our superior brothers were wont TO
dub us, for pockets are now being gwen
TO us in abundance, and we are fairly
reyeling III the comfort afforded by All
shapes and sizes.
Travelling coats have them They are
gigantic in size and are almost capacious
enough to hold an overnight supply Of
clothes.
The latest innovation is the pocket IN
the sleeve. Ii is attached to the edge
of each sleeve Of motor coat that is
cut ON comfortable lines and resembles
loose topcoat The sleeve pockets are
like huge scanned cuffs, anu there are Of
necessity flaps that button over the tops.
These pockets probably are for handker-
chiefs or cc;n purses, perehance a powder
puff They are ornamental, too, being
decorated with braid and buttons.
Then there are pockets that have been
introduced in the Innings OF hats, into
which the fair owner may STOW scent
ed disk OF her favorite sachet, that
comes just for this purpose.
Little coin pockets are more general
in the jackets for afternoon wear They
can be successfully concealed beneath
the long, supple revers or under the
tiny vests aud give the grain OF comfort
that we have lacked fer many seasons.
Verify we are entering our own joyous
age Of pocket for everything and ev-
erything in its pocket, and no one is
more pleased at the prospect than a
mere woman.

cigars must have 8 per cent. OF their

of the treasury department show ia

According to the advance reports or
this tobacco investigation the Cubar
importations have been admitted un-

$3,00O,00O and s5,000,000. and il wa
