CLAPP SCORES
TARIFF LAW
InSurgent Republican Senator
Says it is Responsible For
Increased Cost of Living
.--,or---c.,e-..-e.,-rr.r..

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator
Clapp, Republican. Of Minnesota.
thinks Secretary Wilson's investaga-
ton into the reason for increased cost
of living ought to be an easy task.
ITS the Payne-Aldrich tariff law"
he declared in an interview to-day.
THAT measure has cost, and is cost
ing. the American people, in increased
cost of living. millions upon millions
of dollars. That vast sum would have
been saved to the people if the law
could have been defeated
1.-THE new tariff is in general an I'm
crease. The revision upwards did not
affect everything, of course. but it
started the upward boost and now it
has spread all along the line.
Here is the way it works: Raise
the price of one necessity-clothes.
shoes. socks-and the man who is COM
PEELED to pay that increased price must
get more for what he has to sell in
order that he may pay IT, Therefore
it directly affects the price of what
he produces.
"Then this is an era of combinations.
They have reached out into every field.
It used to be that the consumer shared
in the benefits of protection; now IL
is that they pay the bill Intrenched
behind our high tariff wall. which pre-
vents competition from abroad, and
firm in knowledge of sitting of COM
petition at home through combination
Of interests we are bound to face con-
stantly this problem Of increase in the
cost Of living Eliminate competition,
and the producer and consumer be-
come different classes, where there
used to be no line OF demarcation and
both shared alike.
Gust because some people have come
to regard automobiles as necessities.
just as we are becoming more and
more extravagant in our mode of life.
so will the price TO the common citi-
zen of living necessities rise. We have
manufactured hundreds upon thous-
ands of automobiles; people have
bought them Cand many who could not
afford it). Now it takes a great deal
of leather in the manufacture of auto
mobiles.
1.-THE new and insistent demand for
leather boosts the price of that COM
modify. Hence it is that the leather
that goes into shoes is more costly and.
correspondingly the price of shoes is
higher. That's only one illustration"

Did you ever" said Mr.. Jurgleton,
see a man in a silk hat carrying an
infant child? Never. venture to
say.
You do see plenty Of fathers, young
fathers, mostly, carrying their babies.
and very willing to carry them, indeed
proud of their offspring; but you never
see such father in tall hat. They
may wear forty-'leven other kinds Of
hats-derbies. soft hats, straw hats or
as many kinds of caps; but no father
carrying an infant ever wears a silk
hat.
"Of course there can't be any fash
ion decree about this Refraining from
wearing a silk hat on such occasions
must be due just to instructive COM
mon sense; the baby is an extremely
informal thing. liable to scream or cry
or wriggle or squirm at any minute,
to bear itself in many ways in man
ner quite incompatible with high hat
dignity; and even young fathers seem
to know this, and so they leave their
stovepipe tiles on the shelf at home
when they go out with the baby. They
seem to know what is fitting instinct
lively; but you never see a man in
stovepipe hat carrying a baby"

IN KIDNEY

An interesting case was that of Mr..
II. l.. McDuffee, member of the firm
of II. c. DeWolfe & Co., of the Crock
er Building, San Francisco.
The case was puZzling There was
pain in the kidney with a showing Of
blood Examination seven physi.
clans proved that the blood was from
the kidneys. and it was the opinion
of all that there was a stone cutting
the kidneys, as the least exercise
caused a showing of blood.
Four X-Ray pictures were taken,
three OF them showing a stone half
an inch in diameter To be certain
that it was a stone that cast the
shadow a similar stone about the
same size taken from a patient was
put under him for comparison-both
stones showing on the plate.
An operation was about decided up
on when Fulton's Renal Compound
was recommended to Mr.. McDuffee.
He feared the knife and gave it a
trial
Within ten weeks the blood and
pain had ceased and in six months he
considered himself we'll
We also nave a three-page letter
from an old school phsician, lectur-
er in one of the San Francisco Medi-
cal colleges, covering a similar case
of stone in the kidney. An operation
seemed inevitable.
! He prescribed Fulton's Renal Com
pound upon the theory that as 1t was
getting results in Nephritis it ought
to have some effect to reduce the in
Illumination and excessive uric acid
that attends Calculus. He was so
surprised to get a complete recovery
that ne thought record ought to be
made of it and gave us the letter
above referred to.
Fulton's Renal Compound seems to
have about the same percentage of
efficiency in stone in the kidney that
il has shown in Bright's Disease.

REFLECTIONS.

Tact is the quality which we keep
for our neighbors and friends and
carefully abstain from using in our
family circle.
Odd how hearts can beat as one on
the boardwalks' expanse, only to re-
sumo their separate beats before the
ferryboat is safely in its slip.
After surreptitiously listening to a
crowd of girls at afternoon tea we have
been forced to the conclusion that the
dividing line between polite nothings
and plain lies is finer than hair.
When a man who believes in the
reality of the neither regions eyes
cat by the stove on the hottest day, he
envies her asbestos consistency with
all that little soul he is trying to save.

Bell Bransford.

At the home of the brides parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. I. L. Bransford, on Ury
street in this city, Mr.. Robt Bell and
Miss Lady Bransford were united in
marriage last Wednesday morning at
1920, the ceremony by Rev. E. K.
Bransford, of Lexington, KY. 1t was a
morning wedding with simple decora-
ton and ceremony. In the parlor were
some potted plants and flowers appro-
pirate for a background, and in the
presence of a number of the relatives
and immediate friends of the bride and
groom the rites were solemnized.
The bride was pretty in going-away
suit of tailored cloth with hat to
match. She is young woman of
grace, culture and refinement, modest
withal, and happily mated to the
young man whose tastes are in perfect
harmony with these valuable posses
sions. He is the son of Geo. g. Bell
and the grandson Of the late Mrs.
Elizabeth Askins.
After the ceremony Mr.. and Mrs.
Bell were driven to the union station
and left on the northbound NJ. & O.
train after a reception of rice and con-
CALCULATIONS. From st. Louis they go
to New York City, and on the 10Th
inst. embark on one of the big liners
for Plymouth, England, thence to
France and Italy and Switzerland, with
return dates to land in America about
the first of October, after which time
they will be located in Nashville.
Among the guests present were Mr.
and Mrs. Herman Cross, of Blytheville,
Ark. Miss Vera Apologize, Arkadel-
phia, Ark; and Miss Mary Kelly, of
Fulton.
