NEW TARIFF LAW
Duties on Almost Everything Wh Use
Will Be Higher.
FOOD PRODUCTS WILL MAKE ADVANCE
Cotton. Woolen and 811 k Goode Will Take In
creased Tax—lt > Will Effect All
Claseee More or Leon.
Prices of nearly everything which
is bought by man, woman or child for
food or raiment, from candy to cor
sets. from hosiery to steam engines,
are showing signs of advancing]and
very soon the cost of living and dying
will be greatly increased. This is
due to the tariff bill which the repub
licans are about to enact.
There is not a citizen of Georgia or
the United States who will escape the
increased tax. A few articles are ex
cepted, but they are almost wholly
things which are produced in this
country and for some of which there
is no great demand. Arsenic will not
be any higher and it will be as cheap
to commit suicide by poison as ever,
but if a rope or a gun is used there
will be a tax on those articles.
The tax will be plainly felt by all.
It will be manifest from the time one
gets up in the morning until he re
tires at night. The blankets under
which he sleeps at night, except the
very cheapest kind, will cost 33 cents
more per pound. The underwear
which is donned will cost half as much
more. The clothing, whether a suit
for a man or a dress for his wife or
daughter, will be considerably higher,
amount depending upon the
•quality It WiU be anywhere
from fl to $2 up to $lO.
The shoes, shirts, collars, cravats
and the buttons which are necessary
•appendages will all be higher in price.
The soap which is used in the toilet
Will host from 5 cents to 15 cents more
per cake. For example, a cake of
soap which cost now 25 cents will
soon cost 40 Cents. The toothbrush
and the powders will cost more. So
will the towels.
Ou the Breakfast Table.
And then when he goes down to breaks
fast, if there are oranges on the table
they will cost 1 cent apiece more than
heretofore. His coffee or cocoa will be
more expensive than it has been since
the days of the war. Some say that the
sugar will cost 1 cent a pound more, but
that is disputed by some dealers, who
cannot figure it out that much; but it is '
sure to cost more. The breakfast bacon,
steak or chops will not be any higher, I
because they are products of the Ameri- I
can farmer and he does not get any con
sideration in a tariff bill, or none to
count. The same is true of the bread,
but the china and the knives and forks
and spoons will be higher whenever they
have to be replaced. This is true also
of the glassware and especially of cut
glass. The napkins will be more expen
sive than they are now and even the
toothpicks have to pay a tax of 1 cent
per 1,000. That is a very small item,
but it shows that Mr. Dingley and bis
republican conferees have not let the
smallest thing escape them.
The carpet in the house, if Axminster
Wilton, Brussell or any of those makes,
will average 44 cents to 60 cents more
per yard. The furniture will be higher
and so will the morning cigar or cigar
ette. Local dealers say they cannnot

will be advanced to the Consumers or
whether the middle men will have to
stand the tax. It may be that the num
ber of cigarettes in a pack will be reduc
ed, although it is the packing and the
package which cost in that trade, rather
than the article itself.
When the Women Go Shopping*
The women will see where the tax
comes in when they go a shopping, and
the man who pays the bill will see it on
the Ist of the following month when he
makes ont the check. Everything from
the feather in the hat to the laces in the
shoes has been subjected to a higher
duty. A dress pattern will cost from $1
to sls more.
according to the quality of the goods.
What is called the wool schedule of the
tariff bill includes everything woolen
which is worn or consumed in any way
by the average American citizen. The
feathers will be 10 per cent higher, the
duty now standing at 71 per cent. The
retailers will run that up nearly or
qnite 20 per cent. If madame or miss
buys prepared chalk she will pay one
third more for it than she has been pay
ing. The perfumery will be at least
one-tenth higher, or there will be one
tenth of it less in a bottle. Hand mir
rors are taxed one-tenth more than per
fumery. If the lady purchases a mani
cure set, she need not be surprised to
' find that the price has advanced one
tenth.
When it comes to replenishing the
sewing basket with needles, thread,
scissors or thimble, there will be
another advance of 10 cents on sl, and
maybe more, for when the retailer
figures in the tax, he usually pnts (on
a little more, if competition will per
mit it and usually .it does. Even the
pins are to pay more tax, every paper.
They have to stand a share of the
general burden as well as the needles.
Very few men know anything about
crinolin, corsets or Jhat wires, and yet
the gentlemen who framed this tariff
bill did not overlook them, and they
raised the tax 5 per cent. And then
they hit the women of the country in
a tender spot by adding 25 to 50 cents
onto the price of corsets. It is a good
thing for the republican party that
the women of this country have not
yet obtained the right to vote.
Cotton Goods More Expensive.
The tax on cotton cloth has been
craftily constructed, some one says.
Cotton goods are as essential to wo
man as a morning cocktail is to a Ken
tuckian. Neither could possibly live
without them. Many changes have
been made in the old classification.
Sometimes it is the fineness which
regulates the tax, and again it is the
value of the goods. Under the Wil
son bill these classes of cotton goods
came in under the general duties
laid, but now the duties range spe
cifiically from 6| cents a square yard
to 8 cents. The average per cent of
duty is 50 on all these new classes. In
each case the manufacturer has an
excuse for raising prices, and the cot
ton goods of the future used by the
housewife will cost at least one-fourth
more than in the past three years.
All cotton, plushes, velvets and vel
veteen will cost one-fourth more than
under the Wilson law. The rate has
been raised from 40 per cent to 67 per
cent. Woolen plushes have been in
creased from 40 per cent to rates that
run from 88 to 147 per cent. Silk plushes,
velvets and chenilles fare as badly, the
increases ranging from 15 to 80 per
cent.
Cotton hoisery will be taxed 20 per
cent. A 25-cent pair of hose will cost 30
cents, and aSO cent pair cents.
Silk hoisery pays 10 per cent more
duty, the new law placing it at 60 per
cent instead of 50. All cotton under
wear takes 15 per cent additional tax,
or 65 per cent, in the future. Flannels
for underwear will cost half as much
more, the average increase in the duty
being 52 per cent. This duty has been
48 per cent. The Dingley bill jumps it
up to 100 per cent.
Silk underwear illustrates how the
luxuries fare better than the neoessa-

PROFITABLE NEGRO BONGB
Popular Demand Fer Them-One Writer Re
•eivet 85,000.
The popularity of negro songs dur
ing the past two winters has practi
oally ruined the demand for popu
lar efforts of any other kind, and the
sentimental ballad, whether it in
volves the overworked “mother in
terest 1 ’ or is concerned with some less
filial motive, is just at present a drug*
on the market. It Is evidently the
negro song that the public desires
now says the New York Sun, and
there is seemingly no indication that
this demand has been satisfied. The
popularity of these negro ballads was
established anew two years ago by a
oouple of very successful efforts of the
kind, and lhe supply that followed
has been kept up to a remarkable de
gree of excellence. One woman who
makes a specialty of these songs said
last summer, after having exhausted
the popularity of several, that she
was afraid others so good would never
be found. But they were forthcoming
at the opening of the season, and
proved as successful as their pre
decessors. All the song writers with
any talent in this direction have been
turning their attention to negro songs
and one reason why their grade of
comparatively high excellence has been
preserved is to be found possibly in the
fact that many old-time negro melo
dies have been worked over to meet
the present taste. Very few of the
songs that they reached the dignity
of publication are the work by negro
composers, although negro performers
claim the authorship of some of the
songs they sing, Nevertheless, one of
the most popular songs of the year
was written by a negro performer,
who was already received upward of
$5,000 in royalties from the work.
One curious feature of the situation
at present is of marches in
the market. These have been popu
lar as two steps for several seasons,
and the result is now that the sup
ply of these pieces is so far ahead of
the demand that it is next to impos
sible to get one published.
Electric Bittec*.
Electric Bitters is a medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gen
erally needed when the languid, ex
hausted feeling prevails, when the liver
is torpid and sluggish and the need of a
tonic and alterative is felt. A prompt
use of this medicine has often averted
long and perhaps fatal bilious fevers.
No medicine will act more surely in
counteracting and feeling the system
from the malarial poison. Headache,
Indigestion, Constipation, Dizziness
yield to Electric Bitters. 50c and SI.OO

Rheumatism
Is a blood disease and only a blood reme
dy can cure it. So many people make
the mistake of taking remedies which
at best are only tonics and cannot possi-
their trouble. Mr. Asa Smith,
Grefencastle, Indiana, says: “For years
I have suffered with Sciatic Rheuma
tism, which the best physicians were un
able to relieve. I took many patent
medicines but they did not seem to
reach my trouble. I gradually grew
worse until I was un
able to take my food
or handle myself in
any way; I was abso
lutely helpless. Three
bottles of S.S.S. re
; lieved me so that I
towas soon able to move
’ my right arm; before
long I could walk
across the room, and
i ■’ v
when I had finished one dozen bottles
was cured completely and am as well as
ever. I now weigh 170.”

When Doctors Differ
Whojhall Decide?
HISTORY OF A WOMAN WHO COULD NOT
WALK FOR SIX YEARS.
«
So Well Known was the Case that Druggists a.e
Besieged with Requests "For the Same
Medicine which Cured Miss Osborne."
FVom the Palladium, Richmond, Tnd.
Miss T. E. Osborne is the name of a petite
young lady living at 126 North Seventeenth
Street, Richmond, Ind. She ia the daughter
of Mr. William Osborne, one of the most
prominent horsemen in Eastern Indiana.
About five years ago, after she had been
given up as a hopeless case by numerous
physicians, had tried braces and all scien
tific appliances, and had been taken to the
principal baths, she began slowly to im
prove, and without the aid of doctors. Con
sidering the cure a most remarkable one,
a Richmond reporter sought the cozy home
of Miss Osborne and obtained from her own
tips a statement of her case and the cause of
her most wonderful cure.
When the reporter called. Miss Osborne
came walking lightly into the room, and in
response to a request for the stery of h<
case, replied:
“None of the doctors, and' I tried all of
them, knew what was the matter with me.
Some said I had rheumatism, while others
frankly admitted that they did not know. I
was at first taken with pneumonia. Owe of
my feet pained me almost constantly, then
the doctors pronounced it rheumatism.
“Gradually, but steadily, the trouble grew,
and spread until my entire body was h>-‘
volved and I was utterly helpless. Then we
changed doctors. No relief came, and we
changed again. We tried nearly all of the
local physicians, and I was taken away to the
baths. Nothing did me any apparent good,
and I suffered very mueh.
“It is now six years since I beeame en
able to walk. Afterwards I grew worse and
was absolutely helpless. Braces were used
in the hope of strengthening my limbs so as
to make me able to walk, but they did no
good.
“ I was completely discouraged and so
were my friends. They gave me wp to die,
and the doctors, each one of whom at first
declared he could have me walking soon,
all declared that I never could walk again.
I had no longer any faith in any doctor or
any remedy.
“This was the condition of affairs,” said
Miss Osborne, “in 1893. About that time a
railroad man—l forget his name—learned of
my case, which was very generally known.
He told Peter Husson, the grocer, that I
ought to try Dr, Williams’ Pink Pills for
Pale People. My people were informed of
this recommendation and they told me. I
paid no attention, as we had been to such
great and useless expense in trying to get a
doctor or a remedy that could do my ease
any good. I did not want to try them. I
had never heard of them, and I had no faith
in that or any medicine.
“ My people were more hopeful than I, and
they purchased a box of the pills and I be
gan, early in 1893, to try them.
“I noticed no change to amount to any
thing, after taking the first box or so, but
my people wanfeoto give the medicine a fair
trial, so they kept on giving me the medi
cine.
“ I took no other at the time, so that if any
good were to come we would know what had

gan to come. My muscle* became more
flexible, and T suffered much less. At the
end of three months I found 1 could move
my limbs, could lift myself up, and was no
longer helpless. I kept on and still re:
trained from every other sort of medicine.
“In one year from the time I began the
use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale
People 1 could walk, something all the doc
tors had decided I never could do again.
“At first, having been-helpless for so long
I could not trust myself to walk on the
street, as I felt afraid. Soon, however, I
grew more confident, and walked every,
where as well as ever, and have been doing
soever since. I took the pills for two years,
as I was afraid to stop until I was sure the
cure was complete. Before I took them I
wks a wreck, and now my general health i*
very good."
Miss Osborne was repeatedly questioned as
to her opinion of what cured her, and she has
often declared it to have been Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills for Pale People, as she had been
growing steadily worse until she began
using them, and as she nsed no other medi
cine after taking the pills.
“I have recommended) them to a great
many other people.
“ I first took three after rtich meal and
afterward took only two. When I first be
gan taking them, there was only one drug
gist, a wholesale dealer; wh® kept them, and
persons frequently come in there yet and ask
for the medicine that cured Miss Osborne.”
As the trim and active little figure sat on &
piano stool, and talked with much interest
and gratefal animation regarding her cure,
it was hard for the newspaper correspondent
to believe that she was the same person
who, bedridden and more helpless than a
baby, had been pitied by the whole city and
given up t® die but a tew years ago. “The
cure is regarded locally,” says the corres
pondent, “ as little less than a miracle, and
Miss Osborne herself will gladly send her
personal indorsement of all the above state
ment.”
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People
have an enormous sale. An analysis of
their properties shows that they contain, in
a condensed form, all the elements necessary
to give new life and richness to the blood
ana restore shattered nerves. They are an
unfailing specific for such diseases as loco
motor ataxi*, partial paralysis, St. Vitus’
dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rhenmatism, nerv
ous headache, the after effect of la grippe,
palpitation of the heart, p»!e and sallow
complexions, that tired feeling resulting
from nervous prostration; all diseases re
sulting from vitiated humors in the blood,
such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc.
They are also a specific for troubles peculiar
to females, such as suppressions, irregulari
ties and all forms of weakness. They build,
up the blood, and restore the glow of health
to pale and sallow cheeks. In men they
effect a radical cure in all cases arising from
mental worry, overwork or excesses of what
ever nature. There are no ill effects follow
ing the use of this wonderful medicine, and it
can be given to children with perfect safety.
These pills are ipanufactured by the Dr.
Williams’ Medicine Company, Schenectady,
N. Y.. and are sold only in boxes bearing
the firm’s trade mark and wrapper, at 50
cents a box or six boxes for $2.50, and are
never sold in bulk. They may be had of
all druggists or direct by mail from Dr.
Williams’ Medicine Company. The price at
which these pills are sola makes a course of
treatment inexpensive as compared with other
remedies.
