A Mind Reader

Pat had got hurt-not much more
than scratch, it is true, but his en-
Ployer had visions of being compelled
to keep him for life, and had adopted
the wise course of sending him at once
to the hospital. After the house sur
geon had examined him carefully, he
said to the nurse:
AS subcutaneous abrasion is not OBJ
servable, l do not think there is any
reason to apprehend tegumental cica-
irritation of the wound"
Then, turning to the patient, he
asked, quizzically:
What do you think Pat?"
Sure, sir" said Pat you're a won
derful thought-reader, doctor. You
took the very words out of my
mouth. That's just what | was going
to say!"

HOLDS BAY RUM TO BE DUTY FREE.
Decision of United States Circuit Court OF

An annual loss to the government OF hundreos

Circuit Court of Appeals that bay rum imported
from Porto Rico cannot be subjected 10 tax When
E Harold Newhail, of Boston, imported into New

Revenue here seized it. His reason therefor was
that 10 internal had been imposed in Porto
Rico on the bay rum distilled spirits and as
all spirits distilled in the United States are sub
ject 10 the Porto Rcan product should be on
the same footing the home made product.
Judge Hough differed with the Collector, and the
higher court has just decided that under the
Foraker act all that he should have done was TO
find out whether the Porto Rcan bay rum was
subject to a tax. The tribunal thinks there was
no such tax and does not believe it was the Col
lector'S duty TO worry because American manufact-
urers of bay have 10 pay internal revenue or
the distillation. though Porto Rcan competitors DO
not. The court declined to take the view Of Win
