is so on all these new classes. In each
case the manufacturer has an excuse for
raising prices, aud the cotton goods of the
future used by the housewife will cost at
least % per cent more than in the past
three years.
All cotton pushes, velvets, velveteens,
etc., will now cost the woman 81 per cent
more than under the Wilson law. The
rate has been raised from 40 per cent to
81 per cent. The classifications have not
been changed, but the duties have been
increased in each case.
All wooden pushes have been increased
from 40 per cent to the rates that run
from IS to 147 per cent. Silk pushes,
yelvets and chenilles fare equally as
badly. In every classification the rates
have been increased. Theincreases range
from Is to 80 per cent. So the shopper
can prepare to take that much more
money with her when she starts out to
procure her winter outfit.
Hosiery is going to cost q nice little
sum hereafter. All cotton hosiery will
have an additional 20 per cent and more
tackled to the price. AL silk hosiery will
cost an additional 10 per cent, for the new
law places the duty at GO per cent instead
of so per cent as under the Wilson law.

Under the Wilson law only shirts and
drawers were on the dutiable list and
these at the general rate Of 50 per cent.
Now to shirts and drawers are added
vests, union suits, combination suits,
tights, sweaters, corset covers and all
underwear of every description and the
duty is placed at G5 per cent. Nothing
in the shape of cotton underwear can
escape that Is per cent raise.
Flannels for underwear fare still worse.
All the rates on the half dozen grades
have been increased and the average
taken shows that the increase has been
So per cent. The average duty on flannel
for underwear under the Wilson bill was
4S per cent; under the new law it is loo
per cent. Silk underwear will also cost
10 per cent more, but as on other articles
! the rate on the luxuries is not nearly so
high as on the necessities.
Boot, shoe and corset lacings of cotton
are to cost 5 per cent more than a month
ago. The rate has been increased from
