Mr.. DINGLEY. author of the famous
tariff bill that provides for reduction
in the receipts of the government by ex-
Guiding imports, now agrees with the
democratic idea that tariffs do not in
crease wages, and says the only way
the cotton operatives in his town can
prevent reduction in their wages is
for Congress to interfere with the local
affairs of the cotton manufacturing
State of the South and force them 20
shorten their factory hours. But re.
publicauism has become paternalism
since the republicans gained control Ct
this government.

The FACT that Ambassador White
takes the trouble to telegraph here
from Berlin, to deny the report that he
and his family receive little or no social
recognition in that city, is by no means
complimentary to the people of his
country. People are always accorded
the social recognition they deserve, and
certainly those who don't receive the
measure to which they are justly en-
titled, pay little or no attention to re.
ports and rrmors to that effect, no met
ter how incorrect they may be.

Why does the dismissal of Coffee and

Coffee arrests digestion, and according
TO one authirity, allows only 81 per cent
OF the food to be digested That strikes
at the very keystone to the arch of

food for the nerve centers. AS the
