TINKER1Na THE TARIFF.

I1NKERINd THE TARIFF.
LONDON, May 26.-The prohibition upon the
importation of wine and tobacco until the
second reading of the tariff bill mentioned in
Herr Beningisen's motion adopted by the
tariff commissioners of the German reichstag,
seems merely intended as means to enable
tn the government to force provincial duties.
The agricultural interests in the committee
excluded wrought iron FROM operation. of the
bill. It is believed the government will insist
upon provisional duty on unwrought iron, as
this is the vital point in its programme. It is
also believed that the latter will be compro-
missed by rising the rye duty to three-fourths of
o mark. A dispatch from Berlin even mentions
the possibility of another dissolution of the
reichstag.

How to Peel Onions,

She came on board as pretty daisy,
and as sweet and fresh as an elegant get
up could make her. There was chat
tering aft, On the yacht what they would
have for dinner, and it was agreed, for
fun, that it was chowder; each one was to
do something toward the same. "You
have got to peel and chop them onions"
says dandy kind of fellow to the pretty
girl. Agreed" said she, not wincing
bit, and they all laughed, and pitied
her. When the time came for fixing up
things, kind of urged to it, l brought
that pretty girl peck of the fercest
onions-real red-skin ones-you ever
smelled. "There is going to be lot of
crying" thinks l; off that would be
the only sorrow in her life!" Says she
to me: Mr.. Robert, do you haul me a
bucket of water" and | did it. "Now,"
says she, "just you put them onions in
that that there water" and | did it.
Then she took off of her white fingers a
lot of rings, and put them in her pocket,
and asked for knife, and the onions
being in the water, she peeled and sliced
them under water, and nary tear
came, nor nothing. Now" says she,
holding out the tips of her pretty fin
gers. "who will be gallant enough to
kiss these?" Seeing / was the cook
didn't like to be so bold, but there was a
half dozen of the men who rushed for
ward, and of course / had no chance.
That's the way learned how ladies can
peel onions, and not cry over them

In a large stew-pan put a pint of

excellent table butter, three teaspoon
fuls of salt, two of white pepper, as
much more Of ground mace, and tea

on the fire dredge in finely powdered
cracker dust and little of the best
corn-starch-four, until thickened to your
taste. Have ready parboiled (not in
