.MlR.TAFT MISQUOTED.
Makes a Vigorous Protest
Against Misrepresentation.
REVISION SHOULD NOT DELAY
corrects Newspaper Report-sets
Forth His Views on Plan of Max
ing Tariff Schedule.

New York, Special.-President-
elect Taft made vigorous protest
Friday night against what he said
was an absolute Misrepresentation in.
certain New York afternoon papers
as to what he had said during the day
in answering questions regarding
tariff revision.
He had stated, he said, that the
present business depression was un-
doubtedly due in large measure to
the fact that the tariff is to- be revis-
ed at an extra session of Congress to
meet March 18th; that it was Of the
highest Importance that this work Of
revision should not be delayed, but
executed with all possible diligence.
Mr.. Taft also said he favored the
idea of. permanent tariff commits
sion, the plan for which should be-
worked out with celebration, the du-
ties Of such commission to be to
make careful study of the operation
of the proposed new tariff law, to the
end that suggestions might be made
in the future which would tend to
place the whole question Of the tariff
on more certain and scientific basis.

Reflections Of a Bachelor Maid

4 mans idea of q ''chaste kiss" is one
that he has chased u girl u long time to
get.
The average woman goes into matri-
mony by the drawing room door-and
climbs out of the kitchen window.
Victory" is always represented us u
woman in song and story and statuary
but it takes u married man to ap-
preciate why.
If you believe that moonlight is not o
reliable test of love, try sitting in the
moonlight for half an hour with the
wrong man.
After II girl has spent six months Of
hard labor bringing a man to the point,
it is naturally an effort for her to greet
his proposal with that look of glad sur.
prise which he always expects.
According to the divorce records, the
motto for success in matrimony, as in
everything else, seems to be, IF at frat
you don't succeed, try, try again!

is perfectly satisfied if he can just
manage to keep ont of disgrace.
It's Il wise man that knows how little
he knows about womcn.-New York
