her arms were entwined so tightly

zone Touch of Nature Makes the
Whole World Kin"

When a rooster finds big fat worm
he calls all the hens in the farmyard
to come and share it. A similar trait
when a man discovers something ex-
ceptionally good-he wants all his
friends and neighbors to share the
benefits of his discovery. This Is
the touch of nature that makes the
whole world kin. This explains why
people who have been cured by Cham
berlains Cough Remedy write letters
to the manufacturers for publication,
that others similarly ailing may also
use it and obtain relief. Behind every
one of these letters is a warm-hearted
wish of the writer to be Of use to

twelve GLASSES OF ARTICLES
PAY Three FOURTHS OF THE
$300,00O,OOO TARIFF DUTIES

WASHINGTON. D. c., April 81
Twelve articles or classes of articles
pay three-fourths of the 300 million
dollars per annum collected as tariff
duties by the Government of the Unit
ed States. The duties collected under
the existing tariff law have averaged
800 million dollars per annum during
the past three years, the largest sum
being in the fiscal year 1907, when
the total collections amounted to 329
million dollars. In that year, 1907,
sugar paid so million dollars duty;
cotton manufactures, 80 millions; leaf
tobacco, 20 millions; manufactures of
fibers, 22 millions; manufactures of
silk, 20 millions; manufactures of wool
20 millions; raw wool, 1914 mllons;
spirits, wines. and malt liquors, 16
millions; manufactures of iron and
steel, IL millions; earthern and china
ware, millions; chemicals, drugs
and dyes, TN millions; and fruits and
nuts, Z millions-the total for these
twelve articles or groups of articles
benig $50 millions, or just three
fourths of the 329 million dollars of
tariff duties collected in that year.
These figures are a standardization
or an elaborate statement published
by the Bureau of Statistics of the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor.
The statement shows the amount of
duty collected in each year since 1920,
the share of the imports which paid
duty in each year, the average ad
valorem rate of duty on all merchan-
disc imported, and the average on the
,dut1able only, the duty collected per
capita, and the amount of duty collect
ed on each dutiable article in the
more recent years. While the state
ment is very elaborate one. covering
In outline the tariff history of So years
and showing the duty collected n re-

articles, its chief facts may be sum-
