Imports valued at s26, 1,4s7. and
duties collected thereon amounting to
s2.St3,917. is the record for the week
ending September II, 1915, at the thir-
teen principal customs districts of the
United States. This shows an average
ad valorem rate of duty on imports Of
1O.4 per cent. The annual average ad
valorem for the last year under Re-
publican law was 17.6 per cent, a rate
which gave generally satisfactory pro-
lection TO American industries, and
provided ample revenue for the Gov
ernment. neither of which tasks is be-
ing performed by the Democratic tariff
law, as our dwindling treasury bal
ance bears witness. This is not so
much due to the war as 1t is to the
large volume of imports which are
coming in free OF duty.

URGES VALUE OF HOSPITAL
Medical Expert Declares Mother Love
Cannot Take the Place of the
Trained Nurse.

"Skillful home nursing is a great
blessing" says DR.. H. w. Hill of the
Minnesota Public Health association.
Everyone wishes that every mother
might be a skilled nurse, for such SER
vices are required at least three to
four times by each child for serious
infections as we'll as for many minor
troubles. But skillful nursing in the
home is beyond most mothers, despite
all loving desire to do the best for
their sick ones.
"When actual knowledge of the care
of really sick persons is needed, and
especially where infectious cases are
concerned, not only is the average
mothers training insufficient for the
patients best welfare, but lack of
practice as we'll as i~neXperience tells
heavily on the mother in her efforts
to prevent the spread of infection to
others. A trained nurse is invalu-
able in such cases, but even better is
it that the sick one should be remov-
ed to a hospital. This is especially
true for the patient suffering from
tuberculosis, and avoids danger to
the other members of the family
as WE'LL"

Highlands Lighthouse.

The most important lighthouse al
the present time, so far as actual ope-
rations are concerned, is the light OF
Helgoland, the island which Germany
has turned into a naval base. The
Helgoland light is an electric n and
the most powerful in Germany, and
is claimed by the Germans to be the
most powerful light in existence. The
light consists of a cluster of three
re-revolving lights, having a lighting
power of 10000 900 candles, a magni-
tude of light which from figures alone
is hard and difficult to realize. The
lights are on the searchlight princi-
pie, and the cluster is surmounted by
a single light, of the same kind and
size, that can be revolved independent
ly and three times as fast as the
three lights. The single light is put
into use in ease of accident to the
cluster of three. The electric power
is generated by two steam engines
and boilers, running belt-driven cleo
trio generators.

Mystery About Precious Stones.
That the diamond and other pre-
cious stones were made in the I'M
fathomed and fiery caves of earth and
brought to the surface by volcanic
or other upheaval, is we'll established,
especially in regard to those of the
South African fields; but more mys-
FERROUS than this is that they have
been found in the paths of the ancient
glacial drifts of North America.
They are held to be very vaguely re-
lated to all crystalline forms which
are other of the mysteries.

Signs of Pain.

1t is difficult to estimate the degree
of pain, but there are certain signs of
suffering which are unmistakable-
the pinched features, the knotted
brow, the rolling eyes with widely
dilated pupils, the ashen countenance,
the cool and clammy skin, the thready
pulse, the increased blood pressure,
the hands alternately clenched and
opened, the cries and groans and the
bodily contortions. All these present
a definite picture with which every
experienced physician or nurse is
familiar.
