NEW YORK, April 10.-The intrica-
cies Of the tariff may seem like a fig
saw puzzle to some but 1t proves a
fascinating topic for study and obser-
walton for Edward Henry Cliff, who is
known In New York as the Tariff
Shark"
Mr.. Cliff is one OF the high officers
In the American Protective Tariff Lea
que and when he Is not studying the
tariff questions he is at his desk in
one or the largest general commission
houses in New York.
Work" says Mr.. Gift, "is one of the
real Joys Of livlng-that Is II you do
not make labor out of 1t. am at my
office every morning by 9 O'Clock and
! rarely leave until at night. Work
Is sort OF hobby with me because
have made 1t fascinating pursuit"
When Mr.. Cliff leaves the down
town dry goods district, he goes to the
Union League Club where he dimes
regularly at 10 o'clock at night. He is
an ardent enthusiast Of the doctrine Of
a protective tariff for American indus
tries and his strong arguments are
given respectful attention by those
who are unable to agree with him.
Most Of his high salarled employees
were brought up from office boys under
Mr.. Gifts personal tutelage. He has
no private Office. His desk is where
all can see him and around him are
grouped his various department
heads. Il am never too busy to see
anyone" says the man who is often
described as the busiest man in New
York.

Miss Geraldine Farrar has published
a modest little effort called 1.-THE Story

1t is easy to understand after reading
1t why there is war raging.
When the fair Geraldine left Europe
the crowned heads and crown princes
could not hold her hand any more and
being put out about It they just started
the awful carnage.
There is little doubt that Miss Farrar
has more than her share of popular
praise from newspaper reporters and

then she barred everyone Of them at
