there is no need of such investiga-

they have succeeded in bringing out
such a valuable line Of information

different schedules. This is nothing
less than complete dictionary of the
tan,ff, and it enables Inc layman 10 in
terpret the meaning of a schedule
without difficulty. That the task of
preparing this glossary is not an easy
one is shown by the fact that a gloss
airy Of the metal schedule would make
book as large as the ordinary school
arithmetic. The work of preparing
gloSSar.es for the cotton and wool
schedules, for the metal schedule and
for the drugs, paints and oils sched
ule is we'll on its way to completion
After the tariff board has comple.-
ed IFS inquiries into the metal and
leather schedules it probably will next
lake up the chemical schedule. II con-
greSs feels THAT the report on cotton
and wool justfjes the continuation
OF the tariff board, it will probably
make liberal appropriation for the
work Of the next year. It may come
about that the Republican senate will
approve the work of the board and
that the Democratic house will not.
In that event there probably would be
10 appropriation for the continuance
of the activities of this organization.
1t is probable that at no time i'm the
history Of the tariff in the United
States has as much hinged on a sim
gle report as hinges on the neport of
the tariff board on the cotton and
wool schedules. President Taft has
insisted that he could not see his
way clear to do anything until the
report was in his hands. The Demo
have declared that the abuses of the
present schedules were sufficiently OBJ
Vious to justify them in revising the
tariff without waiting for amy invest
cations by the tariff board What

It is probable that the continuation
of the tariff board will depend large
ly upon the reception with which lis
work meets at the hand of congress.
If the reports of the board on the
cotton and wool schedules are salts
factory TO that body, the work of the
board may be continued indefinif ely.
If they are not satisfactory, congress
may not continue the necessary ap-
preparations beyond the current fiscal
year. The tariff board has realized
this fact, and to the end that
it's work might be Of value to congress
it has already spent the bulk of this
appropriation for the fiscal year.
Therefore, it may not be able to pros
ecute as thorough an investigation
into the metal and leather schedules
as DIT has made into the wool and cot
ton schedules
One of the interesting phases of the
work Of the tariff board has been the
translation of the. tariff law into

date.
The tariff board does moi have the
power Of securing testimony under
oath. It does not believe that this
power is essential or advisable in its
work. Members Of the board say thai
they can get much more valuable dn-
formation by personal interviews than
BY an OathbOmd inquiry, and that
they possess such a satisfactory sys-
tenn Of checking up all information
given them that they are able TO de-
termine for themselves the value Of
the testimony Of each person.
1t is the opinion OF the members Of
the tariff board that the board is Sc
curing a whole-hearted cooperation
from manufacturers throughout the
United States. Except in isolated
cases, the cotton and wooden manufac
turers have lent full assistance to the
agents Of the board. It is believed BY
the members Of the tariff board that
with the continuation of their work
and the cultivation Of friendly rela
tons with the manufacturers of the
country the information they will be
able to bring out will grow increasing
~ accurate and useful.
Already II is asserted the work CT
the board is regarded by European
tariff experts TO be superior 10 that
done by any organization in Europe.
In support of this statement lei
ters from European experts have beer
cited by the president and others. In
the European governments tariff bills
are prepared by the ministries and
adopted by the parliamentary bodies.
In this country the legislative author
ties possess the power of preparing

A LEGEND
BY Count Leo TOistoy.

RICH man was on his DEATH
N bed. All through his life he
1 n had been a greedy. ayaricious
person and had gathered enormous
wealth.
greedy and selfish manners he always
said: I'm this life money is the only
thing that counts"
And now with death approaching he
thought: ''Of course it must be just
the same way in, heaven. Money will
be the only thing Of value there, too.
and if one wishes to be treated well
there, one must be well provided with
money"
So he called his children together at
his death bed and said:
my last wish is that you shall fill
my coffin with as many gold coins as
it viii hold. Do not be stingy with
the gold" be groaned, "be sure and fill
the coffin we'll"
During the same night he died
And his children piously complied
with his last wish and filed his coffin
with thousands of gold coins
He then came into the next world
Here he had to go through the usual
formalities-with questions and entries
in various books, opening of protocols.
examinations and cross examinations
and settling of accounts (which took
I'D a whole day. For in the other
world of course. they must have po-
lice courts and registrations and all
that nonsense.
The poor man rushed from office to
office and at last he was so hungry
and thirsty that he felt quite faint
This will never do. he thought II
must have something to eat and
drink
Suddenly he caught sight of a
lunchroom with an immense counter
piled high with all kinds of food and
drinks There was even grill behind
the counter where a delicious steak
was just being broiled.
THAT is fine" he thought, now
can get something to eat He was
quite sure 1t must be the same here as
down below. How fortunate 1 brought
some money along. I will have good
square meal now"
The feeling of his purse heavy with
gold was great pleasure to him and
smilingly he walked up to the coun-
ter.
How much is that?' he asked point
ing to a sardine.
Five cents said the man behind
the counter.
"That is cheap enough" the rich man
thought
And that one" he asked again,
pointing to a delicious game pie"
That is five cents too" the man re-
piled with a smile. He seemed amused
at the rich mans surprise.
Then it is as cheap as that" the
rich man said. "Will you please give
me ten sardines and six pies and some
of these.
He pointed out some more dishes on
the counter.
The man behind the counter took his
order, but did not move to I'LL it.
You will have to pay in advance"
he said dryly.
why certainly. with pleasure"
