A highwayman who rohs you of
your purse, and, on finding that it
does not contain as much money as he
supposed it did, knocks you down, is
not a man who should be at large.

A Virginia man or rather, a Vir.
gin la Colonel lias obtained a patent
for an invention which lie fondly
hopes will prove a formidable rival to
the Mofl'ett bell-punch for use in the
saloons. His plan, as set forth in the
Virginia papers, is that the State
Auditor shall have prepared a book of
coupons, to be sold to all bar-rooms
and liquor-dealers generally. When
the dealer sells a drink the consumer
receives a coupon, which entitles him
to receive from the State, in payment
of bis taxes, one cent. If two drinks
are to be paid for be receives a coupon
printed on orange paper, good for two
cents. If five drinks a blue paper,
good for five cents. This seems to be
au admirable arrangement for the pro
motion or drinking, it would un
doubtedly be the palriot's duty to
drink all he can, and, like a good little
Sunday school boy, get a blue ticket
at least at every sitting. Not only
does the State enjoy an income from
the tax on drinks, but a man who
drinks has a reasonable chance of pay
ing off his taxes with the orange and
blue coupons. Of course the biggest
taxpayers will have to do the most
drinking to- balance their accounts
with the State, and the saloons will be
perpetually crowded with men work
ing out their taxes. Phila. Times.
