If the Legislature doesn’t frame a law at the present session, to bring tax dodgers to law, we shall be great ly surprised. Speaker Little is earn estly in favor of such legislation, and will introduce a bill seeking to cor rect the evil complained of. Ex-Senator E. A. Flewellen, who has given the subject Jmuch thought, writes as follows to the Atlanta Jour nal: “No man can be in more hearty accord with the Comptroller General in his recent recommendations for a complete revision of our code of tax laws than the writer of this. “During the last session of our leg islature, and since, much thought and study was and has been given to that subject. There is an evident de mand and necessity for the change, for those who are most able to bear their just proportion of taxation have their investments mostly in such prop erty as is known as invisible, and which they manage in various ways, to withhold from taxation. That greatly increases the burden of taxa tion upon all property which is tan gible and cannot be concealed. There is very general clamor for re lief. “Our tax laws need revision in so many particulars that no man should be blamed for making suggestions. The bill ’"hich passed the senate of our last legislature on this subject contained many good points worthy of consideration. “All holders of taxable bonds should be required to return each bond by number, and state by whom issued. All land lots are required to be returned by numbers. Why not bonds? The holders of notes and accounts should be required to file with the tax receivers a list thereof, stating the face and cash value of each. While the law requires mer chants to return for taxation their real estate, meachandise, money; notes and accounts, it is becoming quite common for them to form merchandise companies and return only their capital stock, which is gen erally far below the true value of the entire property. While there is no law known to the writer authorizing such returns, they are received by the tax receivers. They ought to be stopped. “If nothing else is done, much more good can be accomplished by defining more explicitly the duties of our tax receivers and tax collectors, and enact a penalty of forfeiture of one-half of their commissions for fail ure to perform all of their legal re quirements. If tax receivers are made to administer the oath required of tax payers, in solemn form, that of itself would greatly increase the amount of property on the digest, for that oath is so comprehensive that no man who takes it can evade making fair and just returns without perjury. As it is, there is, perhaps, not a tax receiver in the state who formerly and in solemn form admin isters the oath. The tax payer is to make out his tax returns A suit his own interests without be- But few read the oath to the tax returns. It ought made the law that when any signs the return it shall be . r ßhjred that he has either read or heard it read, and that HHB re turns are made he shall be to indictment for perjury. i equipments of law are more Hit for tax collectors than for tax Yet it is rarely the case ■t one ot them fully discharges H legal requirements. Where rich Kn of influence are known to have Bluable property of the kind known ■ invisible which they fail to return, lat property is not assessed and ■uble taxed as required. (“Tax receivers and tax collectors ■e both constitutional officers, and Bnnot be displaced or removed from ice except by indictment. Hence e necessity of providing for a for ture of part of their commissions r non-compliance of law in the dis arge of their duties. “Paragraph 635 of volume r re lires grand juries to correctly assess operty returned at an undervalua on. That law ought to be so nended as to require them to add > the list property not returned. “Many other suggestions could be lade, but this article is already too jng. “Uy all means let us have a tax :ommission something like the one n operation in Alabama, with such mprovements as have been indicated iy experience.” J —-'.l - “FOR WORMS and other bowel com plaints to which chil dren are liable there fa no medicine equal to AYER'S PILLS" Mas.

What They Are Composed of and lfow They Are Made. Slate pencils undergo a number of processes before they uro ready for use, and in making them nearly all of the manual labor is done by boys. First broken pioccs of slate are put into a mortar run by steam and aro crushed to a powder, which is then bolted in a ma chine such as is used in flouring milla A fino slato flour results, which is thor oughly mixed in a large tub with stea tite flour and other materials, the whole making a stiff dough. The dough is kneaded by being passed between iron rollers a number of times, and it is then taken to a table, where it is made into short cylinders four or five inches in thickness and containing from eight, to ten pounds of material each. Four of theso cylinders are placed in a strong iron resort which has a change able nozzle so that the size of the pen cils may be regulated. In the retort the material is subjected to great hydraulic pressure and is thus pushed t hrough the nozzle in the shape of a long cord. As the cord comes through the nozzle it passes over a knife and is cut into the desired lengths. The leugtlis art; laid on boards to dry and are then placed on sheets of corrugated zinc, the corrugation preventing the pencils from warping during the baking process. The baking is done in a kiln into which sujs'rlieat ed steam is introdutxid through pipes. The pencils go from the kiln to tbo finishing and packing room, where the ends are held for an instunt under a rapidly revolving emery wheel, which neatly points them. Finally they are packed in pasteboard boxes, 100 pencils in each box, then 100 of the pasteboard boxes are packed in a wooden box, and they are ready for shipment.—Philadelphia Times.

HOW WILD ANIMALS DIE. Hungrr Get* Then. Even If They Escape the Hwotor'i Gau. What becomes of all the dead birds and animals ? Some of them, hastened in their exits by villainous saltpeter, go into cooking pots or yield up their blqod dabbled feathers for woman’s adorn ment. But how about those who die a natural death? It is the rarest thing to find the bodies of wild animals, except such as have plainly died in conflict or by accident. At salt licks the ground is often covered with tire bones of animals who have been killed in fights with each other. In tropical countries tlio bodies of dead animals rapidly decay, and their smaller bones are devoured by greedy beasts of the pig and hyena types. But the same scarcity of animal remains is noted in the arctic regions, where decay is al most unknown. Here big bensts like tho Siberian mammoth have been “cold storagod’’ for many cen turies and actually eaten at tho lust. But each succeeding spring does, as might be expected, disclose the skeletons of birds or animals who have died during the year and been buried by the snow. Yet birds swarin by the millions in summer on the arctic tundra, and seals, rein deer, foxes, walruses and othor land and water animals are there. Nor denskjold notes this strange absence of “self dead” polar animals. Not one did he see, thougli there were plenty of traces of man’s wanton waste of life in creatures dead of gunshot wounds. "The polar bear and the reindeer." he writes, “are found in hundreds, the seal, walrus and white whale in thousands and birds in millions. These birds must die a ‘natural dentil’ in untold num bers. What becomes of their bod mu Jt is strange that on Spitsbergen it is easier to find the vertebra of a gigantic lizard of tho trius than the bones of a seal, walrus or bird which has met a natural death. It is probable that animals most universally hide themselves when they feel the pangs of appronchiug deuth. Their chief foe is hunger, coupled with old age. Distemper kills foxes and wolvos as well as do mestic dogs and cats. Chills and hoart disease count animal ns well as human victims. Old animuls die of indigestion, especially when their teeth become too poor to permit of ohewing their food. Tumors, diphtheria and consump tion uro frequent animal complaints, and anthrax, influenza, glaudersand cholera claim their share. Rabies comes in epidemics among wild ani mals as well as tame ones. It wus so common among foxes in 1830 to 1838 in France and Switzerland that fox hunts were organized for the protection of domestic animals. All this, however, doesn't explain what becomes of tho dead animals. Perhaps that will cease to be a mys tery when we tiud out where all tint pins and shoo buttons go.—New York World.

THE NAVAL CHAPLAIN. Ill* OflHolul Station anil l>utie In 'lima of Tip mo. The chaplain’s official station in most ship ceremonies and. i<t time of battle is at the sick hay, whew lies the sick. Dis cipline and fresh air tire wonderful pre servatives of health, and a chaplain’s duties to the sick in times of peace are Very light. At naval hospitals, however, whither uio brought from the ships the very sick and the seriously wounded, a chaplain finds ample field for the exer cise of that tender sympathy which wins souls to Crod and for the minister ing of the consolations of religion. It is also the duty of the chaplain to wwi-t at naval burials. The regulations re quire that Christian burial be provieled for all men who die in the service. If possible, the body is interred with the rites of the church to which the deceas ed had belonged. When this sod duty is required at sea, the ship is hove to, the flag displayed at half mast and the ofli cers and men are mustered on dock to pay their lust tribute to the departed. The funeral services follow, and ths body is then consigned to the deep. A guard of honor fires three volleys over the watery grave and the hugler sounds the last “taps”—sad, mournful notes of the bugle which tell of the hour of sleep. If the death occur at a hospital, an escort and a guard of honor from the ship to which the deceased had been at* taehed accompany the funeral cortege to the grave. As the procession enters the cemetery the bugler precedes, fol lowed by the chaplain. This spectacle is always impressive. It naturally sug gests the prayer that angels, led by tho angel guardian, may boar the soul of the deceased before the throne of God as friends bear the body to the grave; that the angel at the judgment seat may proclaim welcome, joy and glad ness as the hugler at the grave real la loss, sadness and regret.— Duuahoe’a Magazine.
