The protected manufacturers of,he United
States have two selling prices-a Wholesale
price for home trade and retail price for
for eign trade. The situation is summed up
by one Of them who writes:
"Our prices to the domestic trade average
about 10 per oent more than to the export
trade. We box and deliver in New York all
our export goods. Domestic goods are quot
ed on cars here" rs
Another one says very frankly:
"Our discounts to the home trade are for
wholesale purchases. Our discounts to for
eign trade are for retail purchases. We sell
single machines at retail TO the foreign pur-
chaser at 10 per cent. less than our whole
sale rates to the domestic buyer"

A Singular Dental Opef@tion.

sat in DIR. ]. B. Morrison's office reading
paper and tanning himself unsonceru-
eddy. He has passed through one of the
most remarkable operations known in
dental surgery. When he was about
years of age he had an attack of scarlet
fever that caused the retention of four
teeth on the right side of the upper jaw.
DR.. Morrison made an exploration apd
found the teeth and drew two of them
down. One of them did not require
much attention, except careful watch
ing.
When exploring for the eye tooth he
found it between the hard palate and
the floor of the nose, pointing toward
the left jaw. The tooth was imbedded
in q sack of pus, and the most careful
treatment was needed in removing the
pus and to prevent il from aggravating
the cut parts and causing blood poison.
The tooth and its bony attachments were
cut loose, carefully cleaned of all foreign
substances and placed in their proper
position. The central incisor was kept
out of the boys mouth for two and a
half hours The teeth that were changed
about are growing nicely, and young
Washburn said that he is suffering no
pain, no Inflammation has set in and his
teeth are in good condition. He was
thoroughly under the influence of ether
during the operation. The operation is
out of the ordinary indianapolis News.
