RECIPROCITY WITH SPAIN.
Provisions Of Arrangement Made by
Minister Collier.

According to unofficial advices. Mr. Col
Her, United States minister to Spain, has
completed an agreement with the govern
nIent of that country whereby American ex-
ports to Spain are to be admitted at the
tariff rate granted the most favored ma
lions in consideration of reduction of rs
per cent in the duties imposed upon Span
ish brandies vermouths, champagnes, still
wines argols and paintings and works of
art admitted to the United States.
Before the war with Spain the United
States was on the favored nation list with
Spain, but the war abrogated all treaties.
and since the closing of hostilities there
have been no trade agreements between
this country and Spain.
Cotton Is the chief article of export from
this country to Spain. but under the IA
yored nation clause there Is no reduction
granted by Spain on manufactured oot-
ton, and consequently the cotton growers
will not profit by the new agreement The
exports from the United States to Spain in
the year ending June 20. 1905. aggrcga ted
in value S17,02O. 286. and cotton male up
SIC, 725 IT'S of this amount The duty on
cotton admitted to Spain is slightly less
than cent pound. regardless of whether
the country from which the cotton Is
shipped has a commercial agreement or
understanding with Spain.
Tobacco Is another large item In the list
of Spanish imports from the United States.
but all manufactured tobacco Is con-
trolled by corporation winch mas the
tobacco concession. and no tariff rate
whatever is quoted on the leaf tobacco as
only the company having the concession
imports and the charges are included In
the price paid for the right to control to-
bacco. In 1905 the American manufac-
tured tobacco sent to Spain was valued
at $913. S55.
Machinery exported from this country to
Spain In 1905 was valued at about quar-
ter of a million dollars. Under the new
agreement the duty on some sorts of ma
chinery will be lowered slightly. Leather
is another article which slight reduc-
tions in tariff are made. But as the entire
expectation of leather from this country
to Spain In 1905 was worth only about $780,
600 there does not seem to be great de-
mand for American skins.
Lumber and various wood products will
enjoy a slight reduction. Slaves, upon
which there is at present duty of nearly
~ cents each, will hereafter be admitted
to Spain under a tariff amounting to about
1 cent each.
In 1908 the value Of the exports from the
United States to Spain was only about LIZ
per cent of the total value of American
exports. OF our total export trade in 1896.
ageregating 81. 49I. 744,e cal. Spain took only
sl7e20.--si. Trade with Spain was increased
to marked degree since the Spanish war.
however In 1897 Spain bought only $1o.--
$50, 611 of goods from this country.

LIMITED TO FILIPINos.
Education of Students for Employ
ment as SURVEYORS.

Attention is called by the bureau of in
sular affairs to the fact that a press item
regarding the education by the Philippine
government of students and their suisse
quent employment as surveyors In the
Philippine Islands was SO worded as to Gre
ate general impression throughout the
country that American young men could
avail themselves of this opportunity. The
act as passed has reference only to natives
of the Philippine Islands who have been re-
ceiving their education in the public schools
of the archipelago, and is but another step
In carrying out the policy of the Philippine
government to prepare the natives for ac-
tive participation In the higher grades of
the insular civil service. At the same time,
american surveyors and engineers are
needed in the islands and those desiring
such positions should address the United
States civil service commission for the
necessary application blanks. as appoint
ments are made after examination by the
commission.

:. T11E DRUGGIST
A Matter ~ Nose.

In spite OF the important place given
to the nose as an index of character,
there Is but little to be learned from It
in estimating the causes OF an innate
bond between the mind and the fea-
lures. Most Of the corresponiences
which have been remarked appear to
be Of a radical order, but why a Roman
nose first became associated with
warlike and Volunteering disposition or
how long and thin nose became linked
with business prudence is more than
can say. III we omit the changes
which take place in a nose during the
lifetime Of its possessor, there is scarce
~ nasal popularity OF value to the
physiognomlst which at the same timc
is cosmopolitan. No Tartar or Hottcn-
tot, however warlikc, could give proof
OF 1t In this way. Japan has shown
that she possesses plenty of men with
military aptitude, but no Wellingtonian
nose can be found within her borders.
Again, no Chinese nose Ia long aud
thin, yet John is not without a certain
aptitude at driving bargains Black

Music and the Turtle.

under the following circumstances:
The Nile, having overlooked It's banks
and inundated nearly all Of Egypt, on
IT. return to its banks left on its
shores various dead animals and
among the rest tortoise, the flesh
having dried and wasted in the sun
until nothing remained In the shell but
cartilages. These, being frightened by
the drying heat, became sonorous,
Mercury, walking along the banks Of
the river, happened to strike his foot
against this shell, was SO pleased with
the sound produced that the idea of
the Tyre suggested itself, and he con-
structed Tyre of the shell Of large
tortoise, which he strung with the
sinews Of dead animals. Dryden
wrote:
Less than god they thought there could
not dwell
Within the hollow Of that shell
That spoke SO sweetly.

The papyrus used by the ancient
Egyptians was made from the stems
Of peculiar water reed growing In all
parts of Egypt. The outside layer Of
the plant was removed. and beneath
this there were found number Of lay.
ers of delicate. pithy membrane
These. being separated, were placed IL
layers. A second layer was laid ct
right angles to and above the first and
sometimes third over the second
Heavy pressure was then applied. and
the layers were firmly cemented into a
fair article of paper. No gum other
than what was contained in the plant
itself was used in the process. The
papyrus was very much stronger than
the average paper made by the mod
ern machines. The sheets were com
monty made from six to twelve inches
square.
