THE AUDITOR GENERAL'S
REPORT.
" "
Auditor General Gregg, in his re
port for the year ending November
to, 1894, bears down somewhat upon
dodging corporations, and admits that
State taxes are haid to get under pre
vailing rules and regulations. He
clearly illustrates how dividends are
kept down to avoid the State's levy.
After saying that the finances of the
Commonwealth are in a healthy con
dition in spite of the cunning of cor
porations he makes the valuable sug
gestion that reform is necessary, and
that more equitable methods of en
forcing the provisions of some of the
present tax laws should be adopted.
He says : " The total receipts
during the year ending November 30
were $12,873,786.82, or $378,941.07
less than they were in 1893, which is
in part accounted for by the fact that
in 1893 the receipts included $921,
966.30 received from Philadelphia
from the Bardsley defalcation.
' There remains in the State Treas
ury an apparent balance of $5,014,
942.18. In this, however, there is
$1,273,328.09 personal property tax
due the several counties of the State,
which leaves a real balance of $3,
807,747.62. In pointing with pride
to this healthy condition of the treas
ury the Auditor General does not fail
to appreciate that it may prove a mix
ed blessing by inviting applications
for its appropriation to purposes
neither necessary nor deserving. He
suggests that if a considerable portion
of the balance can be applied to some
needed public use, whose benefits
would be enjoyed by the entire peo
pie, without placing upon the Com
monwealth an annual charge therefore,
it would seem well that the existing
surplus should be so used.
Much regret is felt that the taxa
tion of capital stock of corporations,
limited partnership and joint stock
associations cannot be made under a
tax law that can be enforced, upon
reports made to the Auditor General,
and under a general rule of applica
tion. The reports of corporations
continue to show discrepancies be
tween large net earnings, profits, di
vidends or surplus, and small actual
case value. An examination of each
concern would impose upon the
Auditor General and his Corporation
Clerk an amount of work which could
not be performed for want of time,
and would greatly retard the settle
ment of accounts. A fixed rule of
settlement of the tax on capital stock
is suggested as likely to produce more
satisfactory results.
" An objection urged against the
Revenue act of 1889," says General
Gregg, " was that corporations earn
ing dividends in excess of 6 percentum
could, by placing large amounts of
their net earnings in their surplus or
sinking funds, keep down their divi
dends and thereby reduce the millage
rate in determining the tax on their
capital stock.and that corporations de
claring dividends less than 6 percen
tum could underestimate the cash
value of their stock." Commenting
on this view, he says : " Without
strictly applying the principle that the
capital stock of a corporation should
be appraised at its actual cash value,
not less than the average price which
said stock sold for during the year,
and not less than the price or value
indicated by net earnings, it is feared
that with corporations, in the case of
which no sales of stock were made,
the defects of the act of 1889 will not
have been corrected.
" There are upwards of seven thou
sand five hundred corporations and
limited partnerships and joint stock
associations making capital stock re
ports to this department. Of these
probably one ha f do not report sales
of sto-'k during the year. In view of
these facts it is urged that the Legis
lature so amend the present law of
taxing capital stock that it shall be
possible for the Auditor General to
determine the tax in each case, save
in exceptional ones, from reports
made to his department."
PRIVATE BANKERS AND BROKERS.
The Auditor General advocates a
radical change in the law relating to
the taxation of private bankers and
brokers upon their annual net earn
ings, and the law requiring that they
shall be assessed by the Mercantile
Appraiser according to the amount
of business done by them. He sue
gests that Section 10 of the act of
June 7, 1870, be so amended as to
limit the application of the word
"broker" in the act to those brokers
only who receive deposits of money.
As a reason for this he says that
there are in all about a.ooobankers
and brokers rated by the Mercantile
Appraisers, and if reports could be
secured from all of them not one
fourth would have any net earnings
to report.
In the case of limited partnership
associations 4 now required to be re
corded as are deeds with the Record
er, it is recommended that a bill be
passed requiring the Recorder to at
once send to the Auditor General a
transcript of the certificate duly cer
tified. Opal brooches are shown with the
opal nearly 3 inches in their longest
diametor.

METHODS OF PRIMARY READING!.
IV.
Object, Word, and Letter Method.
By William Noolling.
In 1850 or t86o. Charles Northon,!
of New Britain, Connecticut, in his
ramu;ar Letters to Une Entering
the Teacher's Work," published an
object, word, and spelling method,
and suggested that the sounds of the
letters might also be taught or rather,
that it would be well to teach them at
the right time, but omitted to say
when he considered the right time.
His directions to teachers were the
following : " Call your little ones in
front of the blackboard. If possible
let each be furnin!icd with a slate.
Now draw upon the blackboard th
picture of some animal or object
dog, for instance. With a pointing
stick in hand, call attention, and have
an exercise somewhat as follows :
Teacher. What animal is this ? Child
ren. A doe.' Teacher. ' Are all dogs
alike ? Children. ' No, ma'am ; some
are small and some are large.' Teacher.
' Are they alike in all but size ' Child
ren. ' No, ma'am ; they don't have
..x-, ......in, nun 1 nave
s.mc color.' Teacher. How many
has a dog? Children. Four.'
ine s
legs
lencher. 'What can a dog do?'
Children. 1 He can run fast and he
can catch squirrels.'
"You will readily see that these
questions may be continued indefi
nitely. They will tend to awaken
thought and interest in the little ones.
After you have extended the question
ing sufficiently, ask them if they
would like to know another way to
express the animal besides by a
picture. They will all be anxious to
know. Now print Dog under the pict
ure on the board, and require them
to do the same on their slates. Then
tell them the name of each letter, and
have it repeated several times. After
having fixed their attention for a
minute, make J) only on the board,
and ask its name, and so with each of
the other letters, and in a short time
they will he able to give their names
readily. It will be well also, at the
right time, to give them the powers of
the letters, or their appropriate sounds.
You will readily see, that some object
of interest to children may be connect
ed with these early lessons, and that
by judicious questioning, they may be
trained to think and express their
thoughts at the same time they are
learning their letters."
The following method, which North
end calls " teaching the alphabet"
he says is trom the pen of John I).
Philbrick, " a distinguished educator,"
superintendent of the schools of Conn
ecticut, and later of those of Boston.
The method, as will be observed, is a
combination of the alphabetic and the
phonic. Another thing worthy of notice
in the suggestions of both these educa
tors is that of developing the power of
thoucht in children.
COMBINATION OK THE ALPHABETIC AND
PHONIC METHODS. j
A specimen lesson as given by
Philbrick :
" Apparatus A blackboard; a
chart of easy words of one syllable ;
an alphabet chart ; a set of alphabet
cards, with a grooved stick, called a
spelling stick, in whick the cards may
be inserted in spelling words; and a
slate and pencil for each child.
" 1'reliminary 'Training. Child
ren should not be put to reading im
mediately upon entering school for
the first time. Judicious preliminary
exercises will render subsequent pro
gress, not only in this, but in other
branches, more rapid and satisfactory.
The object of these exercists should
be to train the ear to distinguish
sounds, and the organs of speech to
utter them ; to form habits of atten
tion and of prompt obedience to all
directions ; and to excite the curiosity,
or desire to learn something. Such
being the objects, the judgment of
the teacher must guide in the selec
tion and adaptation of the matter.
" Lesson. The proper preparatory
training having been given, the teach
er will select a single letter to begin
with ; it matters little which. Suppose
it to be a. The card containing it is
placed in the spelling-stick, in view of
all the class.
" Teacher. You see this letter.
Now look at me. You all know me
when you see me. Now I wish you to
look at this letter, so that you will
know it whenever you see it. It stands
for a sound. Listen, and hear me give
the sound.' Having enunciated the
sound distinctly several times, taking
care to secure the attention of all, the
teacher might ask if any one has ever
heard the sound before. Some may
remember it, as given among the
elementary sounds of the language.
If so, they are pleased to find that the
lesson is connected with something
learned before. If it is not recalled,
give the vowel sounds promiscuous
ly, requesting all to put np hands when
they hear it.
" Teacher.' Nov ail give the
sound after me ; again; again.
That is what this letter says. When
you read it, you give the sound. You
may take your slates and see if you
can make one like it.
Only a few, perhaps, will try at
fust. But the teacher passes rapidly
arnnnri. nivinf? a elance at slates, be
stowing commendation on the best
etlorts.
Teacher. ' Erase it. See nie
make it on the blackboard. I begin
here, and go around in this way. You
may try it a-;ain on your slates.
"The slates are inspected as before ;
the timid are encouraged, and the
letter written for them on their slates.
Then the drill on the sounds is repeat
ed, and afterwards individuals called
up to give it.
"If this is found enough for one
lesson, when the course is resumed,
the exercise on a should be reviewed.
The teacher will then proceed with
another letter in a similar manner,
taking one that, with the preceding,
will make a duo-literal word. Sup
nose it is t. The letters are placed to
gether. "Teacher. ' You see I have put
together the two letters yon have
learned, and they make a word ;
wouldn't you like to read the word ?
Hear me say the sounds, and see if
you can tell what the word is. I will
give thtm slowly, a, t. Can you tell
the word ?
" Alter several repetitions, perhaps
some one will combine them and say.
'at'.
" Teacher.1 Yes, at ; that is
right. Now you have read a word.
You often use the word. I am at the
desk ; you are at school. Say, 'We
are at school.' I will write both let
ters on the board. I begin thus, and
make the first ; and then you see how
I make the other, and cross it thus.
You may take your slates, and make
them.'
" Now the reading lesson is chang
ed for writing or printing. This hav
ing been pursued long enough, the
alphabet chart is suspended before
the class, and the pupils requested to
see if they cn find the word. The
first who raises his hand is allowed to
come out and point to it.
"If any time is allowed to elapse
before presenting another letter, these
steps should be reviewed. The next
letter to be learned should be one
which, with at, will form another
word. Let it be r. The same course
as before is pursued. First the at
tention is called to the form. Next,
the sound is learned. Then, it is
written, exercising the conception and
imitation, and fixing the form in the
memory. The three letters are then
placed in order to form the word rat.
"Teacher. 'You see the three
letters you have learned. They make
another word. Hear me give the
sounds, and then see if you can tell
the word ; r-a t. You may give the
sounds after me?
" In the same way make the words,
bat, cat, fat, hat, mat, sat, vat.
The letter u might come next. This,
placed after a will give the word an.
Then tn which placed before makes
man. And so make tan, ran, fan,
pan, can. lor the next vowel, take
with n making in. Then as before
form pin, bin, din, Jin, sin, win.
"Thus proceeding, go through the first
reading chart, always using every word
learned in oral sentences, and training
the class to make them for them
selves." Comparing the method advocated
and so carefully outlined by Philbrick,
an educational leader of his day, with
those of the foremost educators and
men of thought of the present time,
and we see that the years between
i860 and the present, have not been
a period of intellectual inactivity, but
that a long stride has been taken
ahead.
Though the foregoing method is
antiquated, still teachers of our own
day may profitably take a hint here and
there from it as to the manner of pre
senting subjects to classes so as to
create an interest in the pupils.
" With the approaching season
when mince pie figures so largely in
the culinary department its antiquity
is worthy of mention," says the New
York Times, " Once this pie had a
religious significance, and before the
Reformation the crust had a crib like
form, and Brand says it represented
'the manger in which the Holy Child
was laid.' In 1783 some one wrote
to the Gentlemen's Magazine that 'a
mince pye' indicated the offerings, cf
spice made by 'the wise men.'" All
very true; but the modem mince
pie hasn't got so much religious signi
ficance, for it smacks so largely of the
brandy made by the distiller that the
eater is apt to feel his oats soon after
it touches bottom ; and any other
kind of mince pie isn't a whit better
than old-fashioned custard.
When the tied goes out when the
newly-married couple leave the church.
Wiggs " Do you dictate to a type
writer ?" Waggs " I used to, but not
since I married her."
Wife "Will you listen to me?"
Husband " Great Scott, woman,
what else have I been doing since we
were married ?"
Butcher's clerk" That chiropodist
ordered some meat sent up, but I have
forgotten what kind." Butcher
" Send him corned beef."
To Keep the Susquehanna Pure.
Mayor Eby, of Harrisburg, has ap
pointed a legislative committee of six
to memorialize the Legislature for laws
that will nrevent the nollution of the
Susquehanna river by mine separators
washing their culm into it. The con
tractor who is cleaning the reservoir
in Harrisburg says that it has a deposit
of 6,000 cubic feet of coal culm,
pumped from the river.
The newspaper editor is frequently
advised to pitch into somtbody and
to make vigorous attacks on certain
institutions and individuals. A dog
fight will frequently attract a crowd,
but none of the spectators are willing
to be the dogs. A day seldom passes
in the office of a newspaper without a
visit from somebody who has a fault
to find with someone or something.
He wants the editor to attend to it
for him. " Why don't you score 'era ?
Then he goes into detail, talks about
this and that being an outrage, etc.
When the editor tells him he will
publish this and that complaint, pro
vided he will sign his own name to
it, he says : " Oh, no, I don't want to
get into any trouble with those people.
Don't you sec. Can't you put it in
the shape of an editorial ?" He don't
care what trouble the newspaper may
get into by publishing his grievance,
but he is too politic and cowardly to
assume the responsibility himself.
There are plenty of such people in
every community and the newspaper
man always finds out where they are.

All this time relief was close at hand,
and she had only to accept it with the

Lyilia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
