"On printing such as ours, he says,
"the Canadian duty is about forty per

property and on the American side it is
almost as bad We were playing some
border towns and onr agent, after legally
entering his paper in one big package
at the Canadian port, crossed back on
the American side with enough to bill

officials demanded duty. In vain he
declared that it was American printing
and that he was being robbed. The CT
ficer; only knew that there was so much
due on the paper. He announced bis
purpose of turning Canadian aud re-
nouncing all things American, but the
officers only smiled and he turned back.
At the Ontario port he was met with
another demand. To have paid the
tariff again he would have made it the
most expensive advertising that was
ever posted, and fairly desperate, he
pretended to turn back, and waiting I'M

to the Canada shore. He was between
two fires, and il was a case OF smugg-

he could not land on either side without
being unfairly taxed. When he came
along the officials had the poor agent in
charge for smuggling and it took a vol
ume or two of explanations to straighten
the matter out.
