~ Taxes have been raised by the
fusion reformers"the honest
voters are not to blame. They
are the ores upon whom the
burdens fall. But mark this
prediction: Ifit were necessary
to raise taxes this year to meet
the extravagant expenditares of
the fusion bosses, it will be mcre|
necessary to raise them next
year. The cost of such manage-
ment gets more and more and

Newspapers in Schools.
The idea of substituting news-
papers for reading books in y ub-
lic schools h:s taken hold of
some mincs and occasioned some
discussion. There are some
newspapers which could be used
with profit, there are others which
would impress into the plastic
minds of the children false ideas.
The question, therefore, of the
newspaper to be used is impor-
tant, and the person to make the
selection should be considered.
If the teacher is to select a politi-
cal paper to promulgate his own
politics we might yiew the scheme
with suspicion."Baltimore Sun.

but the following question pro-
pounded by Mr. Bryan in one
of his Ohio speeches will be
asked every Republican speaker
until Bryan is elected President
in 1900.
oWhy do the Republicans
claim credit for the rise in wheat
and neglect to claim credit for a
rise in gugar, due to the fact
that the sugar trust made the
schedule in the Dingley bill?�

the price of wheat, why did it

Asked in all Fairness.
If President McKinley wants
to accord recognition to the
negroes because of their loyalty
to the Republican party, it can be
asked in all fairness. Why does
he not go into close Stetes like
Illinois, Indiana, and Unio where
the negro yote turns the scale to
his party, and giye post-offices
there to. black politicians? The
President will not co this, be-
cause he knows that it would be

Through their nostrils puffs of

Their heads were nicely balanced

Light bamboo canes grasped firm

oMamma getstired so easily. Now

look around a little bit,TT said Miss
| Brown. ;
~With pleasure,TT replied Mr.
Smith, who was in the department
store, but not as happy as he looked.
oT suppose all men detest shop-
ping?�
oJ guess you never asked them to
shop with you.�
oThatTs ingenious, Mr. Smith.
That would be a good :way to ascer-
tain whether they do or not,
wouldnTtit? ButI havenTt the heart
to dissect a plausible argument,
especially when itTs offered in that
gpirit.��
oMiss Brown, you are a oynic,
You are making me ashamed of my
real sentiments..T
~Do tell me how.�
oYou laugh at everything thatTs
serious, and my sentiments are seri-
ous.�T
~Now, Mr. Smith, you must stop.
This wouldnTt be shopping at all if
we talked coherently. You are evi-
dently melancholy. They say that
dyspepsia gives people those kind of
thoughts, but I think that those
kind of: thoughts give people dys-
pepsia. You should avoid them, Mr.
Smith. Try to be like me.

business. ITve been trying for a
long time to discover something
new in food that papa would like
Here are samples of 25 novelties.
DonTt they look just exquisite! And
arenTt the girls that give them out
just too daintily gct up for any
thing! Justsmell that tomato soup!
Mr. Smith, we must try some of
that tomato soup.TT
~~Er"ah"of course, if I were you
Ishould certainly sample it. If 1
was intrusted tacitly as you are with
a commission from a dear relative, I| 4
should determine the merits of ey-
ery new brand of tomato soup or _
die. But, as it is, my physician says
that I must confine myself absolute-
ly to vermicelli.TT
~That was simply delicious. You'll
never know how much you missed
by not taking it, Mr. Smith. I shall
certainly have to order two cans of
that. And, now that you didnTt take
the soup, you surely canTt refuse to
try some of those little pickles.
ArenTt they the cutest things you
ever saw? Do try one. No? Mr.
Smith, youTrea martyr. Just look
at those vanilla wafers. TheyTre
made out of that new kind of cereal.
DonTt they look as though they
would melt before they could be
swallowed? And theyTre just as
good as they look too. Really, I
must have another. Oh, and thereTs |=
some of that cheese theyTre all talk-
ing about. Have you tried that
cheese, Mr. Smith? It has set the
epicures wild, you know. I donTt
see how youcan be s0 mean. IdonTt
believe youTve taken a bite of one
thing except the graham wafers.
Do look at those doughnuts swim-
ming in that amber colored grease.
ItTs absolutely the newest thing out,
entirely vegetable, made from beets,
I believe. Ideclare they taste just
too good for anything. I must have
a memorandum of that. And here
- | are those new preserves which Alice
Miller told me about. An entirely
new system, you know. Dear!
Would you imagine theyTd givesuch
a quantity away asasample? Why,
did you ever think of it, Mr. Smith,
one could almost lunch here for
nothing. ITm beginning to"there,
that girl wants us to try some
American olives. And thereTsa new
sort of pickled ham. IsnTt it won-.

~Really, Mr. Smith, thatTs very, Ne
kind of you, indeed, and I shall avail
myself of it. rl take some ice}
cream soda with fruit flavors, raep-
berry and pineapple mixed. TT.
oThis store certainly ought to sell
a great deal, they are so generous
with their samples,T said Mr. Smith
as they sipped the soda. �T
oOh, it pays:them to Be 80.�
Three days later on Mr. BrownTs
veranda Mr. Smith asked, ~Well,
Miss Brown, have you bought any
of those goods you tried when we
were down town?�T
