TARIFF WILL NOT HELP
T
ADDEO DI GIROLAMA,
leader of the Ellery
Band, whieh is to come to
Atlanta next month.
Leaders in Haberdashery Trade Fore
see hew Cut Prices, More Increases,
but Stationary Values in Most
Men’s Wear Lines.
It any Atlantan who voted for the Democrats who have just
passed the Underwood tariff bill had an idea that he would be
able to buy his suits, socks, underwear, neckties and shirts cheaper
as a result he is very apt to be disappointed. The Haberdasher
has gathered the opinions of some of the leading manufacturers
of haberdashery in America.
Neany all of these men, prominent in their own branches of
the clothing trade, agree that the high cost of living represented'
by the prices of flaming neckties and half hose will not be lowered
by Mr. Underwood’s tariff bill.
The comments seem to indicate that
seventeen Items which were made the
subject of inquiry will show no
change in price; • two will snow
advance, and none will show a de
crease which will be permanent.
A situation in the foreign market
has something to do with the prophe.

BIGGEST SHOW EVER

PRICE.
uy that prices will be maintained as
they were under the protective tarn!, i
Although some worth while reductions 1
in duty were made in some lines, this
will be counterbalanced uy the fact j
that the laboring element in the mar- i
ket across the Atlantic anticipated \n
increased demand in this country for I
foreign haberdashery and asked for an
increase in wages backed up by .so
threatening an attitude that the in
crease was granted. It is true, says
The Haberdasher, that some imported
hosiery, gloves and underw-ear are
cheaper already, but this lower price
is conceded to be only temporary.
The cost of labor in this country,
which has jumped with such rapidity
in the last two years, is said to have
reduced profits to a minimum, and
manufacturers will naturally en
deavor to get their business back on
a basis of normal profits if they find
they can do so through the opera
tion of the new r tariff.
Another factor which the journal
points to is the very keen competition
to which the retailer has been suo-
jected in recent years. He has been
operating with a smaller return on
the volume of his business than ever
before in the passing business gener
ation. and he will try to take advan
tage of any benefit to himself which
the new tariff seems to offer.
Another powerful factor which w’ill
have a great bearing on the situatijn
is the w'ell-known flaring of Ameri
can business men as compared to
those abroad, who will be compelled
to seek our markets if they are to
profit by the lower tariff.
“It is acknowledged t» all close stu
dents of business conditions,” says
The Haberdasher, “that we have pro
gressed so much more rapidly than
the makers abroad that In some re
spects, notably in originality, progres
sive selling methods, commercial dar
ing and appreciation of the power of
advertising, that it w’ould be impos
sible for foreigners to make any dent
in our supremacy here."
Continuing the article says:
"From a survey of the interviews
| we have had we conclude that the new’
I tariff will affect prices on the various
1 articles of men’s dress as follow's:
“Clothing, no change; if any reduc-
| tion, it will be only temporary. Coi-
i lars and shirts, no change. Cravats,
j no change in low’ and medium priced
grades; advance in best grades. Hand
kerchiefs, no change. Shoes, advance.
Night robes, bath robes and pajamas,
no change Hats, no change. Under
wear. no change. Hosiery, ho change: ]
a few styles lower. Gloves, no
change. Umbrellas, no change. Sus
penders. no change. Belts, no change
Garters, no permanent change, but a
temporary decrease. Jewelry, no
change.”
The Haberdasher says that the men
w’ho have been asked to give opinions
on the situation are recognized ex

“It will take some months for those
retailers who may buy foreign goods
to place their orders, adjust their stock
conditions for them, receive the goods
and put them on sale. We have no
means of knowing what the prices
at the counter would be of any such
goods, but we firmly believe that the
imported article will be no cheaper
than the one produced at home.

Z A BERN. GERMANY. Nov. 29.—
One hundred persons, including sev
eral city officials, were arrested to
day as a result of last night’s riot
ing resulting from a demonstration
of indignation over certain insulting
comments by army officers. The dis
turbance was at times so violent
that troops cleared the streets at the
point of a bayonet.
The trouble started at the conclu
sion of the classes of the evening
session of the school, when the pu
pils met and denounced the army of
ficers. Troops were summoned to
disperse the meeting and everybody
who failed to “move on” was ar
rested.

It’s just been admitted to the new

To pronounce it:
Stand erect. Shoulders back.
Lungs well inflated and mouth open.
Then begin.
It comes out of Shakespeare, in
“Love's Iaibor Lost.”
Here it is;
Honoriflcabilitudunitatibus.
Here is the modern form, as it will
appear in the new dictionaries:
Honoriflcabilitudinity. It has lost

LOS ANGELKS, Nov. 29.—“I have
a letter from an expert in Massa
chusetts, commending the muscular
arm movement in writing and urging
it as the best system to teach the
school children,” said R. E. Wiatt,
writing expert of the school depart
ment. before the supervisors of the
different schools, in a conference in
the Board of Education rooms on
writing methods.
“Who is the expert?” asked Super
intendent Francis.
“I ran t mak* out his name on the
letter.” said Mr. Wiatt, and every
body laughed. The letter was passed
around and nobody could decipher
the name.
Dr. A. W Plummer, principal of
Twenty-eighth street school, opposed
the arm movement system in writ
ing. He said it is too difficult for
children.
No action was taken on the writ
ing.

Mixed With Sulphur It Makes

The use of .Sage and Sulphur for

ers time. She kept her hair beauti
fully darkened, glossy and abundant
witli a brew of Sage Tea and Sul
phur. Whenever her hair fell out or
took on that dull, faded or streaked
appearance this simple mixture was
applied with wonderful effect.
But the brewing at home is mussy
and out of date. Nowaday® skilled
chemists do this better than our
selves. By asking at any drug store
for the ready-to-use product—called
"Wyeth’» Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy”—you will get a large bottle
for about B0 cents. Some drugglet*
make their own, which is usually too
sticky, so insist upon getting Wyeth’e
—which can be depended upon to re
store natural color and beauty to the
hair and is splendid for dandruff, dry.

A well-known downtown dnigglet
says his customers insist on Wyeth’e
Sage and Sulphur, because, they say.
it darkens so naturally and evenly
that nobody can tell it has been ap
plied—it’s so easy to use, too. You
simply dampen a sponge or soft
brush and draw’ it through your hair,
taking one strand at a time. Do this
at night and by morning the gray
hair disappears; after another appli
