SHE BUYS (TRTAINS.
DOROTHY SELECTS WINDOW DRAP
ERIES FOR HER BACK PARLOR.
And with Her Little Frmlnlne "Fl»t" She
DrltM a Ur|« Sited Spike Through a
McKinley High I v rlc« —Any Other Wo
man Maj Re aa Enterprising.
Dorothy bad determined to have only
"real" things in her home, you know;
bnt when it came to lace curtains for
her prospective back parlor, she had to
draw the line. They cost several hun
dred dollars a pair, and Dorothy's ship
has not come in. While we were con
sidering the matter I saw a private let
ter from Marshall Field, the great Chi
cago dry goods merchant, in which a
clerk said that such curtains as Dorothy
wanted cost "thirty-five cents more a
yard than they did before the McKinley
bill."
"And I don't believe it," said L
"Neither do I," said Dorothy.
"Let's look it up," we both said. Upon
which we made up our minds that we
wouldn't buy a stitch from anybody
who lied to ns about "McKinley high
prices."
My official tariff book (you can get one
yourself by writing to Washington for
it) tells me that the duty on lace curtain*
has been raised from 40 to 60 per cent
by the McKinley law.
"Why was it raised? What was the
result of it?" Dorothy and I wanted to
know. If we liked the answers we would
buy the curtains. If it was to make "'the
rich richer" and "the poor poorer," as the
Democrat papers claimed (I have been
reading tariff literature lately), we should
certainly not be a party to that sort of
thing. If, as the Republican papers
said, this advance in duty was really a
benefit to the men and women who work
at curtain making and to the people who
buy them I should do everything in my
power to let women of the country
know what unprincipled, selfish people
Democratic McKinley tale fabricators
are. |
We went to O'Neills on Sixth avenue
first. They had such curtains as we
wanted, but the price was eighteen cents
a yard higher than before the McKinley
bill. We didn't deal with them.
Next we went to Simpson & Craw
ford's. A polite man said that "the price
of curtains had not been raised in that
store anyway by the McKinley bill."
Ho laughed in a funny little way when
we asked the question, and seemed to
have something in mind which was a
good joke on somebody. Theif he said,
"No, indeed, we can't raise the prices on
Sixth avenue; the people would get after
us if we did."
"Then it isn't necessary to charge
more?" persisted Dorothy.
"I wouldn't like to answer that, miss.
The wholesale people can tell you all
about prices." Then he gave us the ad
dress of Mills & Gibbs, of Broadway and
Grand street.
"Yes, the duty has been raised, and
there was good reason for it," said the
salesman at that store. "There are a
large number of factories trying to es
tablish themselves here, and they could
not compete successfully with imported
curtains made by laborers who work for
one-third of what our curtain people are
paid. By raizing the tariff the curtain
manufacturer can and doe* pay his
workmen » nongh to live comfortably,
even luxuriously, as American citizens
should live. At the same time he can
compete with the imported curtains,
even though the labor on them costs the
foreign maker but one-third as much."
"Why, that is as clear as daylight,"
said Dorothy. "But when I come to
think of it we who buy lace curtains
have to pay that extra duty, don't we?"
"No; the foreign maker lowers his
workman's or workwoman's
enough to pay that duty."
"Well, what keeps the American man
ufacturer from charging too much?"
"Competition, miss; sharp competi
tion, such a; is stimulated by a fairly
high protection."
"Well, then," 1 put in, "why are not
the American workers' wages lowered
by this competition?"
"Becaune there U a constant demand
for their services, and if one employer
doesn't do the right thing by a man he
can go to another."
"Well, I think that tariff is the best
thing 1 know of for working people, anil
1 don't care if it doeß uiake the rich em
ployers keep their eyes wide open. It
seems to me that Mr. McKinley has
made the j-oor richer and the rich a
trifle more energetic,*' I added.
"Now finally," Dorothy went on, "I
want to know the trath. Is curtain
muclin more expensive than it was lie
fore the McKinley law went into ef
fect?"
"No, it is as cheap, and in many in
stances cheaper. For, as I told yon, the
foreign manufacturer pays that extra
duty."
"Well, then," Dorothy replied tri
umphantly, "please show me some white
lace curtains of fine net, with a fern pat
tern."
We found what we wanted at four
dollars a pair; they had been a trill"
higher two years before. And Dorothy
had another treasure for that "home."
On our way to the station we stopped
at Mr. Horner's gorgeous furniture store
on Twenty-third street to see about
some furniture, and Mr. Horner himself
told us that he knew of a very lar. f
concern "on the other side" that is com
ing to this country if Mr. Harrison is
elected. That would mean another l;v
factory here with employment for ever
so many people.
Oh, it would be such a wicked thing
if Grover Cleveland should be elected!
The tariff would be changed, and tliut
would make it so hard for people who
work "by the day." Every woman ought
to realize that and influence herhtirbai:<l
to vote for the party that cares for the
happiness of laborers.
Of course Dorothy and I don't know
whether Marshall Field and Mr. O'Neill
direct their clerks to the effect of
the McKinley bill, but we think it i •
pretty small if the heads of dry goo<;
concerns do sanction such dealing.

—The probabilities are that cholera has
saved more lives than it has destroyed in
this country. The recent scare has resulted
in a general cleaning up all over the land,
and scores of cities and tows have been
put in better sanitary condition than they
have ever been before. Sickness has been
averted in many a home by this mean*,
and there is no telling how many epidem
ics have been nipped in the bud,
Drunkenness, or the Liquor Habit, Posi
tively Cured by administering Dr.
Haines 'Golden Specific."
It is manufactured as a powder, which
can be given in a glass of beer, a cup ot
coffee or tea,or in food, without the know
ledge of the patient. It is absolutely
harmless, and will afreet a permanent and
speedy cure, whether the patient is a mod
erate drinker or an alcoholic wreck. It has
been given in thousands of cases, and in
every instance a perfect cure has followed.
It never fails. The system once impregnat
ed with the Specific, it becomes an utter
impossibility for the liquor appetite to ex
ist. Cures guaranteed. 48 page book of
particulars free. Address, tiolden Specific
Co., 185 Race St.. Cincinnati ().
