is taken internally, acting directly upon
the blood and mucous surfaces of the

ton of the disease, and giving the pa
tent strength by building up the con-

proportion of our tin plate, and its inn
portation will decrease. But the money
thus saved will enable us to buy more
of other goods.
There are not few Americans who
believe that for instance imported
cloths are better ald nicer than Ameri-
can makes, and will have the foreign at
almost any price, if they have the
money. Hence large quantities OF for
eign cloths will continue to be import
ed. Even if they are no better than
American cloths they will be considered
more fashionable. And some people
pride themselves on having what others
have not. In every considerable town
there will be found greater or less
number of people of fashion who import
a considerable part of their clothing.
/ have mentioned these points merely
to show that our free trade friends need
have no fear that the tariff will bar out
foreign goods. They have expressed
great fear that the tariff would prevent
our buying foreign goods and that con.
sequenlly foreigners could not buy Am
erican goods, and that foreign trade
must die out. i.
No reasonable protective tariff will
exclude foreign goods. But even if
barely high enough to make up for the
difference in wages, which is all that
protec:ionists ask for,it gives the Amer
lean producer the average in the Amer
lean market because of IFS nearness,
while the foreigner may have the aG-
vantage 10 the foreign market.
The larger production gives still fur
Their advantage, and with suitable pro-
lection the American goods will be the
cheapest in the world, and without re-
ducing American wages.

When like goods are manufactured in
like quantities in Eruope and here they
can certainly be produced cheaper in
Europe than in the United States on &C
count Of the difference in the wages of
labor, the cost of materials being the
same, and the difference in wsges will
always measure the difference in price.
There are. however, goods that can be
sold as cheaply in America rs in Europe.
Notwithstanding the difference in wages.
and some even cheaper This must be
accounted for in thecost Of materials as
for instance lumber. which is cheaper
here. But in most cases in must be &C,
