THE INcoNslDERATE BEHAVIOR
OF A CANDIDATE.

Why does Mr.. Hughes insist upon
talking about that old-fashioned. not
to say ubiquitous" doctrine, the pro-
tective tariff? For nearly the whole
period of its industrial existence, the
United States struggled along under
protection. The Democratic party in
1913 came to the relief of IN afflicted
and burdened people. =
The Republican Administration (not
on account Of the tariff, it is true)
was overthrown. Before taking over
the reins of government. and for many
years prior to that time, countless
Democratic statesmen had vainly tried
to persuade the American people that
the protective tariff was IN iniquity.
veritable contrivance of devils. 1t
fostered the trusts, and it was an ele-
vator Of prices even to the thirty-sev-
enth story and the tower. They prom
Used relief. 1.-The poor Sshould be no
longer oppressed; the cost of living
should be- reduced-must be, as the
sure result Of tariff for revenue
protective only in spots, such as the
Louisiana sugar mills and the Carolina
cotton factories. -..
Doesn't Mr. Hughes know what the
Administration did which he is now
attacking? He ought to know. The
Democrats, under the leadership of
Mr.. Wilson and Mr.. Underwood, re-
pealed that iniqulty and abomination.
the Payne-Aldrich tariff law-that fos-
ter mother of trusts and high prices
and enacted in its place the present
law. Mr.. Hughes knows, Of course,
as every head of family in America
knows, that the trusts have not yet
been dissolved and that the cost of
living is higher than ever,-that the
price of everything has reached an I'M
heard-of height-but What of It?
What of it, indeed? While 1t is
true that a protective tariff never fail
ed, under any circumstances, to pro-
tect American industry and American
labor, 1t is to be considered that the
war In Europe has upset the plans OF
the present low-tariff administration
considerably. Also it forms an excel
lent foundation for I'M alibi. It Is a
very unusual condition.
Now, the obvious thing for Mr..
Hughes to do Is to give the Demo-
crafts chance to get their tariff on
straight. Never mind the patient; let
the doctor experiment. That time
went come, of course, until the war
is over-according to the Democratic
version. In other words the tariff
for-revenue doctrine doesn't fit the
conditions; the conditions must be
made to fit the tariff. So why this
disturbance, Mr.. Hughes? 49,.
Besides, when you discuss little
thing like the tariff, do you not know
that Son-in-Law McAdoo and the other
statesmen of tie Democratic family
arc likely to repeat their accusation
that you are "pettifogging' ?-Charles-

Movie Actresses
And Their Hair

Did II ever occur to you that every
movie actress you have seen has love-
ly hair, while the most popular count
their curls as their chief beauty? In
fact, (this is a secret), many are lead
ing ladies just because Of their attrac-
tive locks. Inquiry among them dis
closes the fact that they bring out
all the natural beauty of their hair
by careful shampooing. not with any
soap or makeshift. but with q simple
mixture which they make up for
themselves by putting a teaspoonful
Of canthrox (Which they get from the
druggist), in a cup OF hot water and
applying this instead OF soap. After
its use their hair dries rapidly. with

lustre and softness is delightful, while
the stimulated scalp gains the health
which insures hair growth.-Advt.
