Gives the Boston journal His idea of the
Present Political Situation.
THE Boston journal wrote to each of the
governors OF the New England states, ask
ing their views on the present political sit
nation particularly with reference to the
tariff. Governor Fuller replied in the fol-
lowing vigorous and straightforward Lam
guage; "The confusion that already exists
in regard to the tariff seems to be increas-
ing as light is thrown upon it. The
intention OF the bill is purely sectional, and
framed in the interests Of trusts and monop-
olies, and adversely to the northern farmer
and mechanic and laborer In the end its
effects will be detrimental to the interests
of the country and terminate as disastrously
aslformer tariffs made under similar theo-
ries. With free wool on the list there will
necessarily be revolution, destroying
many lines of industry; there is very little
prospect of a sufficient number or amount
of new industries to take the place of this
vast destruction. When party swings
loose from all platforms and principles and
reduces things to the low basis Of asking
upon every item how much is there in it
for us2' no person can predict when they
have got enough or when II will terminate.
The party has boxed the compass on every
issue and seems to be getting ready to swing
round the circle again, so that there seems
no way of escape from Mr.. Cleveland 3
charge of party perfidy and dishonor. More
harm than good is likely to follow this bill
for Vermont interests"

To Boil Water.

A woman physician has been saying in
print that few persons know how to cook
water. THE secret" she says, lis in put
ting good, fresh water into a neat kettle
already quite warm, and setting the water
to boiling quickly, and then taking it off
to use in tea, coffee or other drinks, before
it is boiled To let it steam, simmer and
evaporate until the good water is all in the
atmosphere, and the lime and iron and
dregs left in the kettle-bahl that is what
makes a good many people sick and is
worse than no water at all"
A critical taste, goes on this authority,
will detect at the first mouthful, II the
nose has not already demurred and given
warning the faintest taste of dead water in
tea, coffee. porridge and many other items
designed for the stomach.
She concludes with the advice that II per-
sons will drink tea or coffee let them at
least have it as nearly free from poisonous
conditions as possible That much benefit
may be derived by many people from drink
ing hot water is not disputed. but the water
should he freshly drawn, quickly boiled in
a clean and perfect vessel and Immediately
used. The times of using. the adding OF
milk, mint, lemon or other fruit juices, is
