father left no formal will, he had recon-
mended to his children to destroy certain
notes, due-bills, and other evidences Of
debt, and release those who might be le-

that, from the time he had heard of our
fathers death, he had raked and scraped,
and pinched and spared, to get the money

My wife knew how much the payment Of

American Cities.--The growth of,Ameri-
can cities is unparalleled in the history of the
world. Already half a million are embraced
within the limits and suburbs of New York,
and half that number within those OF 'Phila-
delphia. New Orleans contains about hun
dred and fifty, Boston one hundred and thirty
FIVE, and Baltimore one hundred and fifty
thousand inhabitants. The second child born
in Cincinnati, il is said is still living, and has
not reached the middle age of life, while the
city has population of hundred thousand.
The population of ST. Louis was one thousand
six hundred in 1910; sixteen thousand IN
1910; forty thousand in 1S45; and is, proba-
bly,, now not less than sixty thousand. Buffa-
10 contained two thousand four hundred and
twelve in 1926; in 1916 twenty-niEe thou
sand seven hundred and seventy-three and
now contains about forty-fve thousand. In
1928, the population of Lowell was three

Tar and Turpentine-From McCullough's
Commercial Dictionary, we learn that the av-
erage entries of Turpentine into Great Britain,
for home consumption, in each of the years.
1881 and 1882, announced to 322, 1899 cwts
This was almost altogether supplied from this
country-only about 5000 caUts. of that i'm
ported in 1881 having been furnished by
France.
In 1886, it is learned from the same source,
there was imported into Great Britain 37O,9S1
caOts. of turpentine, and 9,797 lasts of tar
a last is fourteen barrels. In 1887. the i'm
portation of the former article amounted to
415,033 cats, and the latter 1877 lasts. The
authority mentioned does not inform US from
whence these importations were derived, but
it is inferred they were nearly all from the
United States, as there was no evidence that
France had exported largely at that time
Russia, it appears, furnished small qua. Ii
ty at one time. but the other countries Of Eu-
rope seem to have done nothing
DIR. IRE, in his Dictionary of Agriculture
and Commerce, states upon the authority of a
treasury report, that the value of tar, pitch,
turpentine, and rosin, exported as naval stores
from the United States, was, in 1885, $567,-
566-in 1886 S912,397.
The census of 1910 furnishes en- maSse the
number of barrels of far, turpentine, rosin and
pitch, produced in the several States mentioned,
