The republican party in Massachusetts
is at distinct disadvantage this year. in

This lis particularly true in Boston. Out

he said, to ascertain the difference be-

abroad AS fast uniform SEIZED uieS
were secured by this body, lie said. duties
should be fixed upon that basis without
waiting for the completion of the whole
plan.
The maintenance of high tariffs on some
commodities he said, threatened All in
dustrial panic. In this connection he
mentioned the wooden schedule. which, he
said no man in public life had had the
hardwood to defend. This and the ad-
vances in the cotton schedule had led
manufacturers TO overca pitaliZe enOr-

creased duties on fabrics would enable
them To reap larger profits from their
mills
But the enormous burden placed upon
these enterprises, he said nov would
seem TO be more than they can bear.

 ''Fine Feathers
 We rather think the old maxim mis- applied. It should have been written, ''Fine dresses make fine damseIs '' since the phrase is invariably used in aLusion to the we'll known and per fectly natural love of finery which all women worthy the name inhe from clothes have in the eyes of the com munity. It is a mistake to accuse a we'll dressed woman of vanity. It is her duty to dress just as we'll as she can afford. and if her husband, broth CT or father are at all worthy the name they will see that she is dressed as stylish1y as they can help her dress. Most men have a. natural pride in sec ing their wives and daughters dressed in the current fashion-neatly not credit of American men that, general ly speaking, they are willing to put up with seeming extravagance, provided the ladies make good'' in presenting husband knows full well that the credit for a dainty gown and neat fitting costume reflects largely upon himself, as the generous provider of them And if the average husband or father would just trust himself to go through the present show of ladies suits coats, c1oaks, skirts. etc, at Ma rine Clothing Co.,, 1188 Main street, over the MOhican store. he would be about the first to suggest some pur- chases@es specially when the moderate prices and easy payment plan were ex- plained to him.
