when a Greek found himself worry
ing too much over his troubles, he used
a recommended perfume to clear his
mind. Stomachacle, headache and
various other aches were said to be re-

Perfumes were brought to Europe grad

TARIFF WOULD
BOOST PRICES
10 PER CENT
Survey Shows Pending Bill
Means Increased Cost
of Many Articles.

BIZ ScTiDDs-HotC1rd Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1O.-Import-
ed goods in United States depart
ment stores must be marked up
about 10 per cent in price If the
pending tariff bill passes with it's
present rate raises, according to an
analysis by the National Retail Dry
Goods Association.
Philip lie Boutillier, tariff chair
man Of the association, made the
analysis for Senator Simmons of
North Carolina, ranking Democrat
Of the senate finance committee.
The association is fighting the in
creases because its members are
large importers Of foreign goods.
Selecting a representative list OF
thirteen articles in common use, lie
Boutillier figured their sale price to
the public. now totalling S355.54,
must be marked up to S375.97 If the
proposed rates go into effect.
Among the articles are a kitchen
clock, a baby carriage, leather
gloves. silk goods, a small Wilton
rug, and a leather bag. Practically
all are Of classes OF goods sold by
all department stores and used in
Millions Of homes
lie Boutillier also figured the re-
tail cost, if the domestic value"
basis of import duties for which
American manufacturers are con-
tending, were put into use at
the present duty rates. as a total of
S516.74, or almost double present
prices.
The senate has adopted an
amendment directing the tariff
commission to figure what rates
would be necessary under the
domestic value" basis to approx
mate the present protection. This is
thought to forecast another general
tariff fight in two years or less, to
put the domestic value basis into
effect.

City Barber Has Array of
Antiques Used for
National Figures.
BY TRISTRAM COFFIN

A collection of tWenty-nine shay
ing mugs is the pride of Mac Nc
Murray Of 722 Edgemont avenue,
Negro barber at the Board of Trade
barber shop, evidence of the three
generations he has shaved.
The name in glittering gilt on
these treasures of bygone days in
clude those of Arthur Baxter, Elijah
Martindale, Judge Reatus Hatch,
Fred Joss, w. H. Howard and F. w.
WATSON.
With pride Mac shows the mugs
and then tells how men who first
came to him, now send their grand
children, one man in Richmond
sending a telegram for appoint
ments for his son.
Daily Mac shines up the mugs,
relics of the days when long hair
cuts were in vogue and when he
practiced the tonsorial art at the
Denison hotel.
He shipped the shears and used
the foaming brush on such famous
men as President William McKin-
ley, President Benjamin Harrison,
Vice-President Charles w. Fair
banks, Attorney General w. H. H.
Miller, Addison C. Harris, ambassa-
dor to Austria Hungary; James
Whitcomb Riley and Ex-Governor
James P. Goodrich.
Let me see," he recalled. "Presi-
dent Harrison liked his hair long
and he loved to have it rubbed real
hard. I can hear him now, BOOM
ing out in his deep voice, rub, rub,

"Riley liked his hair short on top
and long on the sides. Senator
Albert j. Beveridge was most par
ticular. When he first came in here,
can remember, he brought a large
picture of himself and placed it on
the table. He told me to cut his
hair like the picture showed.
I'VE had the most fun out of
Riley. He would come in at the
Denison, sit down and spin all sorts
of yarns about Frank character
he made up. Unless you knew Riley
you would think him crazy to hear
him talk about Frank and Fair
ground Fan, another of his
characters. Any exciting thing that
happened, Riley would say Frank
did that and tell big story about
it. When Riley and Bill Nye were
together the shop patrons had a
lot of fun"

Advise For Home Use

More and more indianapolis peo-
pie, like Edward B. Russell, are find

which doctors advise for home use.
The sudden change in weather
recently caused Mr.. Russell to catch
severe cold. He neglected to do
anything about it until congestion
started spreading SO fast that he
became alarmed.
Acting on the advice of his doctor,
Mr.. Russell then started taking
double doses Of Ayers Pectoral-a
hospital certified compound of wild
cherry. terpin hydrate, etc.. which
physicians have named as the best
OF different widely known methods
tested for head colds, coughs and
chest colds.
Relief began quickly, the doctor
reports. Within a few hours after
the first dose Of Ayers Pectoral, con-
gestion had cleared up rapidly. That
night he slept comfortably and In
Just day or so examination showed
