FACTS AND FIGURES
First Six Months Under the VIII
son Tariff.
Comparisons Between That Period and
for the Same Period Last Year
Are Hardly Fair, for OBJ
Vious Reasons.

The Republican press, in reviewing
the first six months of the Wilson tar
if, finds four facts: First, an increase
in imports of manufactures; second,
a slowing down of our own factories !;
third, falling of of the exports of do
nestle manufactures; fourth, a de-
crease In revenues. These are the
facts. What are the figures?
The treasury departments state
ment covering the first six months
operation of the tariff law, October /
to April 1, shows that imports of fin
1shed manufacture amounted TO $685.
oOO,OO0, as against S215,000, 900 for the
same period last year. This is an in
crease Of $13.000,0OO. The same state
ment further shows that the value of
manufacturers Material amounted to
S469,0OO,OO0, as against S517 100000 for
the same period las. yer. This is a
loss Of $48,o00,000. On the other hand,
the statement reports tta value of
manufactures exported 10 DC s541, 000.-
600, as against 1852 COG, G( last year,
a less of $41.O00,0c0 Tie receipts
from customs were s1z9.000.000. as
against $165. coo.
The figures support he facts. but
not to the degree that one might ex-
pect them to; and after all, it is a
question whether or not the compari-
son is fair one, as both import and
export trade for the six months pre-
ceding inauguration of the Wilson tar
if exhibited returns which indicated
that importers and exporters delayed
trade in order to take advantage of
the new schedules. A comparison be-
tween the figures of whole year peri
DDS may be more satisfactory.

WHEN PEHROSE FELL
fragrant Wrongdoing Really
Dates Back to 1912.
Supported the Wrong Man Then, In
the Opinion of Colonel Roosevelt,
and Must Be Cast into
Outer Darkness.

Colonel Roosevelt has discovered
that there is a crisis in Pennsylvania
All good citizens must stand togeth-
er" for the election to the senate OF
the Hon. Clifford Pinchot-
Crises come up" the colonel says,
when It is the duty of all good cfti-
zens to sink ordinary party differences
and to stand up either against fragrant
wrongdoing in public life or against
policies fatal to the welfare or the
nation at home and to the honor OF
the nation abroad"
Evidently the Hon. Boies Penrose
has been guilty of fragrant wrong
doing in public life or stands for fatal
policies, domestic or foreign.
AS to Mexico and as to canal tolls
repeal, and as to Colombia and so on,
Mr.. Penrose seems to agree with the
colonel in the main. In home policies
he is prominently high protection
ist. Has the colonel been otherwise
since his salad days?
The crisis to be met by the union of
the good on Mr. Pinchot must be,
then, the fragrant wrongdoing of Mr..
Penrose in public life.
Here, indeed, the sin of Penrose is
beyond forgiveness. He supported the
wrong man in 1912 That made him
a,reprobate. Whereas by making the
right choice then Bill Finn became
purer than the unfallen snow and
sweeter than the memory of the just.
We like the colonel, when he's rea-
sonable, but possibly the colonel may
notice later that the Pennsylvania Re-
publicans and other Republicans are
not sentimental or romantic this year.

Work Before Democrats.

The currency system OF the nation
has been wholly recast This bids fair
to prove the most important legisla-
tive achievement Of the quarter CEN
fury. Meanwhile, the usual appropria-
ton bills have been passing IN the
usual way. It is now time for the
Democracy to overhaul the system of
haphazard expenditure of public
money inherited from the wasteful Re
publican administrations of the past
with the same unsparing hand which
it has laid upon the tariff iniQuities
and the archaic currency laws.

Measures Should Pass.

There may be some excellent rea-
sons for hurrying the adjournment of
congress, but none OF them is good
enough to justify ending the session
before the conservation measures now
reported from the house public lands
committee shall have passed. With
all Difference to pet features of the adj
ministration program, the opinion Ia
ventured that more people are con-
cerned IN behalf OF these conservation
bills than In behalf OF trades commits
sion and antitrust acts.

Right Man for the People.

The president employs no press
agent, and he never condescends to
answer the press agents of others. As
Agassiz had no time to make money,
so Woodrow Wilson seems to have no
time to root" for public applause
And the public, having had some ex-
perience with press agent heroes,
shrewdly decides that the man who is
too busy doing his work to collect
credit for it is a good man to have on
the job.
He is man of policies, not of pat
ronage.

visible as small black point.
If the swelling is pressed by the
fingers or forceps the fatty contents
OF the gland burst out through the

wormlike column. The ragged

accumulates dirt and remains q
more or less permanent nuisance
1t Is commonly called a "blackhead"
or enlarged pore" 1t is not a pore
at all, but hole torn in the skin.
This Is one OF the reasons why
BARRIERS should be compelled to thor
oughly cleanse their hands and nails
before each customer and why they
should never touch their hands to
the face except when 1t is unavoid-
able.
Women escape from the BARRIERS
fingers, but they make themselves
willing victims Of the hands Of the
masseuse.
The indiscriminate use OF hair
dyes by hairdressers Is the cause of
more sickness and scalp trouble
than 1s generally known. A woman

VIII suffer In silence rather than
have 1t known that she has used
dye.
Dyes of walnut juice may be used
fearlessly, as they have no chemical
effect on either the hair or the scalp.
The dyes which depend upon their
chemical action upon the hair for re-
suits, particularly those containing
pyrogall1c acid, are dangerous.
Their danger depends upon the state
OF the scalp. Sometimes small ap-
plication will cause an acute inflam.
nation OF the entire scalp. which
VIII take doctor a long time and
much effort to subdue.
Inflammation OF the Kidneys is a
frequent result of using this type Of
dye on sensitive scalp. The hair
dresser, unless he or she be a phys-
cian Is not able to tell whether the
scalp will endure the chemical type
OF dye or not. Nor is the hairdresser
able 10 handle the case properly
after the mistake has been made.
While the proper cure for falling
hair is to clean the head. the brushes
and avoid further infection by the
seborrhea microbe, there are tonics
of actual merit. Quinine, canthar-
ides and other stimulants and irr-
tants, If applied In sufficiently d.
luted form. increase the circulation
of the scalp and tend to save the
hair. Petroleum products are enc
mics OF microbes, friends OF the
scalp and the hair, and are probably
the most. valuable aids In stimuat-
Ing growth Of new hair.

been in contact with decayng phosphorescent wood
and that phosphorescent bacteria had become attached
to them.
Another theory that dampness and unclean
ness OF the covering OF the breast had favored sud
den growth OF luminous fungi peculiar to feathers
This explanation 10 have been plausible;
for In the contact theory would that the wings
and head, rather than the breast, would be likely to
touch the sides OF the hole Yet these produced
little or no light. Again it would necessitae the bird
being treeh0e dweller whereas similar have
been observed Canadian blue herons for which this
kind OF life is impossible.
Inc phenomenon is not confined strictly to wild birds
Cases are also found among domestic pigeons. The
locating OF the light on tho breast be explained
by the fact that the feathers finer and thicker
that part of the body than any other except the
neck 1T Is also part that the bird cannot thoroughly
clean, and will therefore retain the greater part of the
germs and dust gathered In flight. The peculiar in
crease of light during flight is probably due to
chemical action OF the air producing superoxygenaton
as 1t is we'll known that the agitation of medium
containing phosphorescent particles intensfes the
luminosity OF the latter
The balance OF argument is thus in favor of the
fungi theory, and the latest observations Of Senior
Eiorza in Spain confirmation of it. On several
nights he saw couple OF luminous birds. Upon in

Adopted August IA, 1918.
The State Legislature of Michigan
passed n law calling for a State
board OF barber examiners. This
would be we'll enough if the legis-
lature had not made the error of Sc
lecting BARRIERS for the board. AS it
is, Michigan has left the matter Of
regulating BARRIERS to the BARRIERS
themselves. Strangely enough, these
BARRIERS acknowledged the necessity
ignored by the New York Board of
Health of sterilizing razors, needles,
clippers and tweeZers.
Rules adopted by the Michigan
Board Of Examiners OF BARRIERS.
Rule I. All barber shops, schools
or colleges, shall be open for inspec-
tlon during business hours to the
members OF tho BARRIERS State
Board of Examiners and their depu.
ties, and It shall be the duty Of the
holder of license card or permit to
post the same in conspicuous
place in front of his working chair,
where It may be readily seen by all
persons whom he may serve.
Rule 2. All cups and Iather brushes
must be thoroughly cIeansed In boil
ing water before using.
Rule 3. Hair brushes must be thor
oughIy combed after using, and both
brushes and combs must be kept
thoroughly cleansed and washed
after each days work with water of
ammonia or solution of borax.
Rule q. Fresh and clean towels
must be used for each patron, and
all towels must be boiled before
using again. All soaps, perfume,
bay rum, witch hazel and other toilet
articles. and all antiseptic solutions
shall be of good quality. An anti
septic solution shall be used on each
person after shaving.

explained. Besides this. all BARRIERS do
not wash their hands after each GUS
toner. They consider that rubbing
the lather into the faces of their pa
irons is sufficient cleansing for the
hands. AS there is practically no
inspection of New York barber
shops and no puni'Lment for violat-
ing tho rules, the BARRIERS use their
own Judgment in the matter. They
obey certain rules and Ignore others,
according to their fancy, many not
even knowing the rules exist.
Elizabeth, y. j., has a much bet
ter drawn and more adequate set Of
rules. II not only forbids the barber
TO shave persons with skin diseases,
but 1t even makes allowance for the
BARRIERS ignorance OF diseases of
the skin. 1t forbids him to shave
anyone whose face is inflamed,
broken out or contains pus..
The best feature OF these rules is
"E," which calls for sterilization
after every separate use of all mugs,
shaving brushes, razors, clippers,
tweezers and other instruments. 1t
is said that the BARRIERS In Elizabeth
are somewhat in awe OF the local
hoard OF health, and pay consider
able attention to the rules. If this
is true, Elizabeth. N. j.. is probably
the safest place to be shaved in the
United States. Compare the New

Regulation of U,7saraitary Practises in Mem York.

A MONG the various diseases Of
~ the Skin and scalp caught at
BARRIERS and hairdressers
mentioned In previous articles is
that Of acne. This disease is gen
orally known under the name Of
"pmples" and "blackheads."
Several microbes are responsible
Tor these dishgurements of the com
ple1ion. Some are the same as the
parasite which causes dandruff.
Nature, as has been mentioned be-
fore, has provided the skin as we'll
as all parts Of the body with certain
projections against ordinary attacks
of microbes. 1t is only when these
defenses are broken down or the
germs invade in overwhelming mum.
bers that disease gets foothold.
During the course of a shave the
barber removes the natural film OF
oil with which nature covers skin
and hair. he does this by rubbing
MS lather In" He then scrapes the
face with the razor, further irritat-
Ing the skin and laying 1t open to
1nicrobian invasion. Thirdly, he ap-
plies hot towels. forcing the pores
and entrances OF the sebaceous or
oil glands to open wide.
When your face Is in this helpless
condition he usually rllbs his fingers
over 1t, distributing the acne mi
crobes from the last patient which
have lodged under his finger nails.
These germs love 10 enter and at.
tack the sebaceous or oil glands.
The gland which supplies oil is a
curious little organ. All along the
inside Is lining which continually
gives birth to layers OF cells. AS
soon as one layer is formed another
begins 10 grow underneath, so that
these cells are usually five or more
deep.
The new layers are healthy, nor.
nal cells like those of the lining
from which they spring, but as they
grow Older they show what is known
as fatty degeneration. Examined
under the microscope, each LAYER
shows more and .snore fat particles
as we look from che lining toward
the outside. In the NEXT to the last
layer the nucleus Of the cell has dis
appeared entirely In the last layer
the cell envelope bursts and the
fatty PARTICLES are discharged into
the centre of the gland
When the acne microbe enters the
gland II causes an Irritation at the
mouth. This closes the entrance
against further invasion, but 1t also
prevents the gland from emptying
tself. The gland keeps on produ.
cling oil In the manner just de-
scribed. getting more and more dis
tended. After a day or two days the
swelling IS noticeable as small
pimple. The gland opening is
eTetched at the skin 70 crater-like
