FLEXIBLE TARIFF
PASSES SENATE
Gives President Power to Raise or Lower
Rates in Pending Bill-SOme
Restrictions.

WASHINGTON, Aug. PA flexible
tariff plan proposing authority Tor the
president to increase or decrease tarlif
rates in the pending bill until July i,
1924, was approved last night by the
senate.
The vote was SO to 90 with the three
Republicans opposing and two Demo
Gratis supporting.
Just before approving the plan the
senate adopted, 81 to 10, an amendment
BY Senator Bursom. Republican of New
Mexico, which would provide that after
July /, 1924, no duties could be changed
except by authority of congress.
Eighteen Republicans and all of the
Democrats supported this amendment
The plan finally approved is a sharp
modification of that originally proposed.
The president is prohibited from using
American valuation except in the case
of DIVES and certain coal tar chemicals
covered in two paragraphs of the bill,
and is required to base changes in rates
on the differences in the costs of pro-
duction'' at home and abroad instead of
on differences in conditions of compe-
tition."
Also the president could not change
duties from specific to ad valorem or
from ad valorem to specific. nor trans
fer articles from the dutiable list tc
the free list or from the free list to
the dUtiablp list, nor could he raise any
rate beyond any maXimums specifically
fixed in the bill

So MANY PEOPLE:
ARE NERVOUS
"FTuIt-a-tiyeS" the Greatest
OF all Nerve Remedies
Because Made OF Fruit Juices

The increase in the number of
persons suffering from Nervousness is
worldwide; due, in a measure, to the
reaction following the war. Sleeplcss-
ness, Headaches; Mental Depression,
Rheumatism, Nervous Dyspepsia,
Bad Heart Action, are the results of
a disturbed condition of the Nervous
System.
The nerves and the blood are so
intimately, so vitality, connected that
the condition of oneis bound to affect
the condition of the other. If the
blood is laden with impurities, it is
impossible to have strong, steady
nerves.
s'Fruit-a-tives'' viii always cure
Nervousness because it is a fruit
medicine and acts directly on the
organs of the body which purify the
blood, thus relieving the nervous
system.
His because '.Fruit-a-tives' is a genuine
fuli. medicine that it stimulates bowels,
kidneys and skin and purifies the
blood-improves appetite and diges-
tion-insures food being properly
digested-thus enabling the blood to
carry wholesome nourishment to
build up-the body, particularly the
nerves,

MONTPELIER, Aug 12-Secretary
of State Harry A. Black, who is register

ny to the 25th for special duty with

TO the company, his major in the 25th
asked for his retention. writing as fol-
lows:
Sergeant Gibbons is the best quail

only is he energetic and interested in
duty with the post fire marshal. Not
his work. but his previous experience
as assistant fire chief in a town of
10000 Inhabitants has given him the
experience not only desirable, but es-
sentlal in work of this kind. The
post must depend mainly on fire pre-
vention, and the continual inspection
made by Sergeant Gibbons will mate

Sergeant Gibbons was with the
Lakeland fire department for several
years. He is also a former member
OF Co. d, 124th infantry, going with
the company both to the Mexican Dor
