however, the total quantity of sinplate wluch was utilised in the industries of China. Here nothing goes to waste, and we must add to the reported import the quantity which, as Gold smith says "doth a double duty pay," not to the treasury, but in first serving as a package and then as the raw material of an industry. Kerosene oil was imported in 1904 to the extent
of 15,000,000 cases. Taking the proportion of case to bulk oil prevailing at Shanghai, then 11,500,000 cases came in tin cans. Two such cans in a case weigh 41-lbs, and from this source China and the United States.

And in truth Miss Merrie was an artist-on Barrow lines perhaps, but her work was honest and good, something of her own charining nature appearing in it all.
