PROSPERITY HIGH TIDE
SHOWN BY THE IMPORTS
Americans Bring in More Diamonds,
Rich Furs, Silks and Art Works
Than for Years Past.

Washington, July 24.-Prosperity in
the United States is on the increase If
the purchases abroad Of Americans in
the last year Of works Of art. diamonds.
fine furs and champagne can be taken
as a criterion.
In the fiscal year 1909 only $4,000. 900
worth Of art works were imported. but
in the fiscal year just closed art works
TO the value Of S21,10O,00 were brought
in. In diamonds the increase was from
S2f,10O.O 600 to s39.SOO. 900. In undresssd
fur skins, from S11.7O0, 600 to $4,000
900; in dressed furs and manufactures
thereof. from S9.400. 900 to $1,000, 600.
While no more automobiles were i'm
ported last year than in the previous
~ months. their value in each case hav-
ing been S2.90O.0O0. this is accounted
for by the fact that most Americans
are buying machines OF home make.
and, whereas. only $500. 900 worth OF
automobiles were exported in 1909. this
country sent abroad this year S9.5OO. 900
worth.

PRAYER is WITHOUT RESULT
Boys Patience Is Exhausted After
Frequent Petitions to Throne
Of Grace.

A young man who is prominent in
church work in Philadelphia tells this
about his nephew.
Harold is the youngsters name, and
next door lives another boy by the
name of Dewey. They are each seven
years old, and like most children Of
their age are disposed to get into mis-
chief as often as possible. Several
days ago they found mans coat lying
on the front pavement while the own
er was fixing gas main. From the
pockets of the coat the two boys abb
stracted several tickets, and when
Harold's mother found it out she made
him return the tickets and explained
the sin which he had committed
warning him to pray that he be for
given that night He obeyed, and
while on his knees added. prayer for
Dewey as well.
The next night Harold's mother was
in the next room when he said his
prayers, and she heard him ask God tC
forgive Dewey for stealing piece oil
cake. On the following evening he
again was moved to ask forgiveness
for his friend, this time for stealing
three pieces of candy, Apparently his
patience was exhausted, for the mex
evening his mother was in the adjoin
ing room when he offered his evening
prayer, and this is what she heard:
Gosh darn it. God. have done the
best l could for Dewey. / guess you
will have to watch him yourself" p
