EXPORTS OF MEDICAL
GOODS NEARLY DOUBLE
! WITHIN PAST YEAR

America is being called on to helm
Real the wounds of those now en-
Gagged in war. Figures have now
been compiled to show that exports
II medical supplies have more than
doubled in the last year, say the New
York Herald.
Before the war, practically all med
icaments manufactured in America
were for home consumption, and large
quantities were imported. Since the
start Of the war, however, manufac-
turers have seen their opportunity and
The exports have increased. Their is
still much room for increase. and it is
stated that foreign governments
would gladly buy a larger quantities
from the United States if the produc-
ton here were greater.
Perhaps the best proof of h rapid
growth in exports during the last year
IS in the table of figures compiled b>
Jhe Bureau of Commerce. The follow
ing are the figures for the export of
medical appliances, based on eleven
months now and one month esti-
mated:

The only department in which there
has been a decrease is that of dental
goods. This is presumably because
The dentists do not have the practice
that they would have in peace times
Most of the exported surgical instru-
ments are being sent to Europe now
although In normal times the Euro.
pean countries were the smallest buy
ers in this field.
Field hospitals and the unsanitary
condition that prevail to some extent
with armies in war time explain thu
big increase in the expectation Of thu
miscellaneous drugs. Chief in thi.
line is formaldehyde, for which Their.
is a large demand. AS is the case will
other articles on the list, the increas,
is largely due to the fact hat thos,
who formerly bought medical ap
pliances in this country are still pur
chasing here to some extent, Will,
the European countries which hereto
fore did most of their own manufac
turing are also buying here.

RUSSIANS LOOK TO ENGLAND.
Form League to Draw the Two Ma
tiOnS Closer Together.

A significant movement or the part
OF Russian society to draw England
and Russia closer together has mani
tested itself in the creation OF a lea
que with the object of strengthening
the relations between these two coun-
tries, says The London Daily Chron-
icle. This league, promoted by NJ.
NOvikOV, a member of the Duma. was
inaugurated in Moscow at the begin
ming of une, under the Presidency OF
Mr.. Ichelnokov, the Mayor Of Mos
COW. Among the speakers were Max
i'm KOvalevsky, the we'll known pro-
fessor and member of the Counc OF
State" an Did friend of England
as he called himself-M M~ieiovkov.
the leader Of the Constitutionalist
Party in the Duma; Nj. Roditchev, the
most prominent speaker Of the same
party, and many other leading repre-
sentatives of the political, literary and
commercial life Of Russia.
The speakers touched upon the po-
litical MISUNDERSTANDING which ex-
listed between England and Russia III
the past, chiefly after the Crimean
war, and especially after the Berlin
Congress, but only in order 10 say
that Russia had completely forgotten
them, and they proceeded TO affirm
how great an influence England had
exercised over Russian minds by such
poets as Milton, Byron, Shelley, Ten
nyson, Dante Rosse,ci, and William
Norris; by such novelists as Dickens
and ~Thackeray, by philosophers and
publicists like Hume, Adam Smith.
John Stuart Mill. Darwin, Huxley.
Lyell. and Spencer.
With the hearty concurrence Of all
present, a committee was ormed
composed of three branches, presid-
ed over by Maxim kovalevsky. First
ly, an Economical Branch, under the
direction Of Professor knOvalov. sec
ondly, a Literary Branch, presided
over by the writer Ivan Bunin. whose
excellent translations Of English
poetry into the Russian language
have made him famou and, lastly,
an Artistic Branch. which has not
yet been fully organized.
1t is pointed out hat England can
offer a vast market for Russian pro-
ducts. and, on the other hand. Rus
slams are very DESTROYS of seeing Eng
Hsh capital coming into Russia, for
the purpose Of building factories,
works, etc, to the mutual benefit Of
both countries.

Of demonstration schools in which
teachers will do practice work. Noted

of child training during the course
The exposition authorities asked DR..
MonteSSOrf to conduct her interna-
tional training course on the exposi-

nifty it will afford to give an interna-
tiOnal test of this newest method OF
developing individual initiative in
very young children.
An essential part Of the plan con
sists in the appointment Of an inter

Director Zicsler Urges City to Provide
More Centres.
Philadelphia Record.

Philadelphia Record.
Director Ziegler is urging that the
city provide more Fairgrounds as an
adjunct to the efforts for the improve
ment Of the public health. They are
less expensive, he says, than the main
tenance Of juvenile courts, reforma-
tories and prisons, while they serve to
improve the health Of the community.
He urges the necessity for Fairgrounds
in winter as we'll as summer. New
York makes the claim that one-half
Of the 10000 children brought annu-
ally before the courts are there for
the reason that they lacked play
ground facilities.
In this city he claims that arrests
Of persons under II years of age for
crimes and misdemeanors have been
reduced one-half in the districts which
| have Fairgrounds. The argument
equally applies to the improved health
Of children shown hen playground
facilities are provided in a neighbour
hood. He urges attendance at the
public Fairgrounds and lighthouses.
The Board of Recreation offers for
use during the summer months LOG
public school yards, IS gardens n X
swimming centers.

WHAT is CARNEGIE WORTH.
Income From Bonds Alone Amounts
To s21O,OOO,OOO.

Philadelphia Ledger.
When rumors were flashed over the
land again one day recently that An
drew Carnegie was dead the query on
everybody's lips was: How much
money did he leave?"
Mr.. Carnegie himself made the i'm
mortal remark that it is a crime to
die rich--being one crime which most
Of us will escape without violent ef-
fort.
But how much is Carnegie worth?
Since he sold his steel works the
income, from the bonds he received in
payment has amounted to $21O,0OO.-
600. Hence the Laird might have
spent s5,OOo,oO8 a year to maintain
his frugal household and have CIV
en- away $140,00O.o00 and still have
all sf his original fortune intact. g..
