NEW TARIFF MEASURE
APPEARS IN THE HOUSE
Duties Are Reduced on Ne
cessities of Life.
Many Articles of Food and Clothing
Are Placed on Free list-New In
come Tax Would Hit All Whose
Income Exceeds $4,000.

Washington, d. C.-Removal of all
and clothing, broad reductions in the
rates of duty on all necessaries of life,
an increase of tariff on many luxuries,
and new income tax that would
touch the pocket of every American
citizen whose net income exceeds $4,-
600, are the striking features of the
new Democratic tariff revision bill,
just presented to the house.
Sugar would be free of duty in 1916,
the bill proposing an immediate 25
per cent reduction and the removal of
the remaining duty in three years.
Raw wool would be made free at
once, with correspondingly heavy
reduction in the tariff on all wooden
goods.
All these other articles are put on
the free list, namely: Meats, flour,
bread, boots and shoes, lumber, coal,
harness, saddlery, iron ore, milk and
cream, potatoes, salt, swine, corn,
cornmeal, cotton, bagging, agricultural
implements, leather, wool pulp, Bibles
printing paper not worth more than
21a cents per pound, typewriters, sew
ing machines, typesetting machines
cash registers, steel rails, fence wire
cotton ties, nails, hoop and band iron,
fish, sulphur, soda, tanning materials,
acetic and sulphuric acids, boraX
lumber products including broom
handles, clapboards, hubs for wheels,
posts, lathes, pickets, slaves, shingles
These principal items are taken
from the free list and taxed: Dia-
monds and precious stones, furs, coal
tar products, 10 per cent; volatile oils,
20 per cent; spices, from 1 cent to 2
cents per pound.
While wheat flour is put on the free
list, duty of 10 per cent is imposed
against countries which levy duty
on American flour. This will exclude
flour from Canada and many other
countries.
Chairman Underwood of the ways
and means committee, in his state
ment accompanying the new tariff
bill, gave the following comparative
table, to show reductions in tariff
duties made upon necessaries. In
each item, both the present tariff and
the proposed tariff had been reduced
to an ad valorem basis.

Sunshine, Plants-and Girls,

Sunlight is so important to life that
1t is little wonder that sun worshipers
prevailed in primitive days. Plant a
potato in your cellar, and If there is q
little light the potato will sprout and
try to grow. Surround 1t with the best
fertilizer, water it, and do the best you
can for it except that you keep it in the
1ark, and it cannot digest and grow.
See how slender and pale it Is! The
process of digestion, the great function
of assimilation, cannot go on without
sunshine. Natures laws are the same
in the animal world. 1t is just as true
that the only girls with red cheeks
and sweet breaths, the only girls who
become fully ripe and sweet, are those
who baptize themselves fully in glori-
Gus sunshine. The many pale girls who
are to be seen with bloodless, half
baked sort of face, whose walk, whose
voice and whose whole expression ia
devoid of spirit, are not half ripe.

WOMEN KNOWN BY JEWELS
Each Article of Adornment ls OBJ

A woman frequently changes her
face and always her gown, while to
change her jewels is an event calling
for chronicle, Richard Barry writes in
the New York Times.

"Oh! That is Mrs. Or-to-Be's
brooch. but it doesn't look like her
daughter, only she never will let any
one wear her opals; lucky for her,
unlucky for another is her idea. What
has she done to her face?"
These women, their dependents and
their intimates hold their jewels in
the affectionate regard that another
group of women might hold their chill
Gren. The entrance to the circle of
each new piece of jewelry is noted
and commented On carefully. 1t un-
dergoes jealous observation at first.
Then, If deserving it, it achieves \
place and is duly caralogued.

BREAKING OUT ON LEG

Hilltop, Kan.-"About two years ago
began to notice breaking out on my
leg. At first it was very small but
soon 1t began to spread until 1t formed
large blotches. The itching was ter
rible and almost constant. Many
nights 1 could not sleep at all. After
scratching 1t to relieve the itching II
would burn so dreadfully that
thought could not stand it. For near
ly a year I tried all kinds of salves
and ointment, but found no relief
Some salves seemed to make it worse
until there We're ugly sores, which
would break open and run.

CHARGE ON THE COMMUNITY
Care Of Those Afflicted With Trbereu-
losls Plainly Drag on the
General Welfare.

DR.. II. l.. Barnes, superintendent of
the Rhode Island state sanatorium,
has recently demonstrated by some
interesting studies of patients dis
charged as apparently cured" from
that institution, that a sanatorium is
a sound investment for any state or
city. The gross earnings of 10 ex-
patients obtained in 1911 amounted to
$102,752, and those of 211 cases in
1912 to $112,021. BY applying the
same average earnings to all ex.pa-
tients of the sanatorium living in 1911
and 1912, DR.. Barnes concludes that
their incomes in these two years was
$551,00 This sum Is more than three
times the cost of maintenance of the
sanatorium, including interest at 4
per cent. on the original investment
and depreciation charges. DIR. Barnes
concludes, however, while institu-
tions for the cure of tuberculosis are
good investments, there Is good rea-
son for thinking that institutions for
the isolation of far advanced cases
would be still better investments"

To some not accustomed to the ox-
elements and responsibilities of

some respects and at some points
seem heroic, but remedies may be
heroic and yet be remedies. 1t is our
business to make sure that they are
genuine remedies. Our object is clear.
II our motive is above Just challenge
and only an occasional error of judg.
ment is chargeable against us, we
shall be fortunate. A
We are called upon to render the
country great service in more mat
ters than one. Our responsibility
should be met and our methods should
be thorough, as thorough as moderate
and well considered, based upon the
facts as they are, and not worked out
as II we were beginners. We are to
deal with the facts of our own day,
with, the facts OF no other, and to
make laws which square with those
facts. 1t is best, indeed 1t is neces-
sary. to begin with the tariff. will
urge nothing upon you now at tho
opening of your session which can OBJ
scure that first object or divert our
energies from that clearly defined
duty. At later time may take the
liberty of calling your attention to re-
forms which should press close upon
the heels of the tariff changes, x not
accompany them, of which the chief
is the reform of our banking and cur
rency laws; but just now refrain.
For the present, l put these matters
on one side and think only of this one
thing-of the changes in our fiscal
system which may best serve to open
once more the free channels of pros
perity to a great people whom we
would serve to the utmost and
throughout both rank and file.

The new rates are estimated to re-
duce the customs revenue approxi-
mately $S0OOO,0O0 a.year. This is ex-
pected to be made up by the income
tax.
The income tax, which will trans
fer indirect taxes levied through the
tariff into a direct tax upon the in
comes of individual citizens and cor
porations, eXempts all sums below $4,-
600. Incomes in excess of that
amount will pay l per cent tax up
to $4,000, 2 per cent from $4,000 to
$4,000; 3 per cent from $4,000 to
100000 and per cent above that
figure.
To encourage trade with foreign
countries, the bill would reverse the
maximum and minimum provision of
the present tariff law. The new tariff
rates would be the maximum tariff,
and the president would be given au-
thority to negotiate reciprocity treat
les and make concessions to countries
that grant favors to American exports.
