PREsUMPTUoUs ToURIsTs.-Rear Ad-
miral Melville was praising the turbine
engines that he had been studying In
Europe. Westminster Abbey in some
way thrust itself into the conversation,
and the noted sailor, ceasing his tech
nical discussion of turbines, said:
Westminster Abbey is grand old
place for everything except prayer.
They say that devout American vis-
tied it one day, and after he had look
ed at all the tombs and inscriptions,
he knelt on the stone pavement and
bowed his head.
"A verger, frowning, tiptoed up to
him.
"'You can't pray here he said.
"The American rose in confusion.
"'Can't pray in the abbey? he ex-
claimed.
"'No,' said the verger, If: I was to
allow it once we should have 'em pray
ing all over the place.
>aNear Kidderminster," continued Ad-
miral Melville, there is an ancient
and picturesque church, the show
church of the country. 1t is only
show church. though, public services
are no longer held in it. Well, one
day, struck with the impressive beau
ty of the place, tourist said to the
sexton:
az suppose there are some people
who use this church for private pray
er"
"The sexton answered fiercely:
az ketched two of 'em at it once"

two hundred and fifty millions on his
temple. Herod's temple cost more still.
In Jerusalem in Roman times there were
three Jews who between them felt able to
face an expenditure of hundred millions
a year for twenty-one years. They offer
ed to feed the million inhabitants of Je-
rus lem for that length of time rather
than surrender the city. One Of these
Jews, Nikodemon, gave his daughter a
dowry of $425, 100000. There were other
Jews of whose enormous wealth the

A CURIOUS LETTER.-John S. Sar-
gent, the noted painter said last sum-
mer in Philadelphia that the late DR..
Evans the American dentist of Paris,
had once shown him all his curios.
Among these curios," said Mr.. Sar-
gent. there was letter that amused
me greatly. DR.. Evans had received
the letter in his youth in America. 1t
was from a young farmer Of Vermont,
who wanted set Of false teeth made
and sent to him. He wrote for the
teeth in some such way as this:
my mouth is inches acrost, 8
inches threw the jaw. Some hum
mocky on the edge. Shaped like a
boss shew, toe forard. If you want
me to be more particular I'll have
to come thar"

TARIFF REFTsIoy 4HD Exports.

Democratic orators and pamphleteers who
clamor for change Of national administration
and for more or less complete revision of our
fiscal and revenue policies can find 10 comfort
IN the summary of our foreign trade for 1903
'04. just issued by the Department Of Commerce
and Labor. II is the favorite contention Of
Democratic writers and speakers that foreign
trade cannot expand under a high protective
system. If we do not open our markets 10 the
foreigner. they say, we cannot get a foreign
market for our surplus products. Exports
should shrink, according 10 their logic with
every increase in tariff rates and expand with
eTei reduction. Yet under the Dingley Tariff
law, the most avOwed and radical protection
measure we have ever had. our export trade has
advanced by leaps and bounds til the United
States stands to-day at the head Of The great
exporting nations. For five or six years mast
