Rapidity of movement is apt to be accom-
panied by sacrifice of dignity, especially if
you happen to have vicious dog at your
heels. 1t wofald be stretching point to say
that ouf spring suits have any dignity be-
cause the term is not usually applied to in
animate objects, but if they have no dignity
of their own they at least impart dignity to
the wearer who in return may be said to in
vest them with sort of personal animation
If there is anything in this life that is posi-
lively depressing, it is the unfortunate who
is condemned to wear an unbecoming suit of
clothes. He may try to appear unconscious
of the attention he attracts,l but he is victim
of inward embarrassment, even though he
gives no outward evidence of it. You will
have no cause for embarrassment if you
buy your clothes of us, becaue we take
pains to please you.

Another oHnry far tisc Erec Tradc o gan
70 IEaorc, as u uni.
A man prominently identified with
the shee: iron business, and who knows
all about what he is saying IN that sub
ject, gave an I~NrELLrGENcEH reporter a
striking example of the way the tariff
is a tax to the American consumer. Said
he:
"The duty fixed by the Mckinley law
on sheet iron varies with the gauge, but
it is always q specific duty, and averages
SIG TO the ton. According to the Dem
oCratic theory, therefore, sheet iron
must sell for SIG per ton higher in this
country than in Liverpool. The fact is,
though, that the iron in this country
to-day costs s. more than it does in
England. 1t is a further fact that the
labor that enters into the production Of
a ton OF sheet iron costs 50 more here
than in Great Britain, so that the Amer
lean manufacturer is at n disadvantage
as compared with the British one
Sheet iron made in Great Britain is
still imported into America. II the
tariff is 4 tax, who pays the other SID
OF the SIG tax which the American con-
sumner does not payY"
The reporter agreed to refer the
query to the editor of the Register, with
the still unanswered queries as to who
pays the tax on files, which cost less
than the duty on them, and calico, OF
which the same thing Is true.
