COOKING VEGETABLES.

When boiling vegetables. be sure the
water is at the boiling point before put
ting the vegetables in 1t. If it is cold or
lukewarm the freshness and SAVIOR of
the food will leak out into the value
less surrounding water. Place the
saucepan over the hottest part OF the
stove so that 1t will boil quick
~ as possible. and be careful that the
boiling does not cease until the con-
tents are thoroughly cooked and about
to be removed.
1t is useful to remember that after
the water has been strained from pota-
toes, they should be given three or
four sharp jerks so as to toss them.
This has the effect of making them
white and floury.

MAKES PRETTY FINISH.

A pretty finish for the fronts OF plain
tailored shirt waists OF white linen or
madras or dark-toned silks IS a pleat-
ing OF fine white linen, graduating
from a width OF three inches at the
neck line to a half-inch at the belt,
bordered with a half-inch applied hem
or striped linen. They come with vari-
Gus colored borders, so that the border
may be matched TO the tone OF the
waist when that garment is in color.
The plating Is set into a half-inch
band, button-holed so that IS may be
buttoned over buttons which fasten
the waist fronts.

HOW TO WIN BATTLES.
Men Who Hit Are Determining FactoA
In War.

Other things being equal, good
shooting is the determining factor in
war. Poorly drilled and hastily or
ganized bodies of men can give good
account of themselves If they know
how to shoot and hit what they shoot
at.
In our war for independence, says
Army and Navy Life, the colonists
were woodsmen. They carried and
used their arms to supply their homes
with food, and to protect them from
the savage. AS marksmen they vast

TARIFF REVISION IN 1908.
Republican View of Reasons for De-
laying Congressional Action.

From the New YORK Tribune.
Politically ii would be unWise 10 at
tempt a revision either at the next ses-
sion of Congress OF at the short session
following. Tariff making should be dis
associated as completely as possible from
pertisanship and partisan strategy. To
undertake 10 frame a new law on the eve
Of n Presidential election would foment
political intrigue. Misrepresentation. and
chickering's. It would force q drawing OF
lines which should not be drawn, and
exalt party interest above natiopal vel
tare. A tariff law. too. ought TO have
a fair trial before the country passes
judgment on its efficacy. The fate which
overlook the Mckinley law and the VII
son-Gorman law Is a sufficient warning
against entangling economic legislation
with sectional and faetional passions. The
Dingiey law lived and has been accepted
by the country as the most satisfactory
tariff law Of our time, not because It had
fair chance 10 take hold and show it's
worth, but because it was passed at 4
time when old political alliances were
weakened and political interest centered
not so much in the tariff as In the
coinage question. An administration and
a Congress coming into Office in the
spring of 1850 could readily cooperate in
rearranging the tariff schedules without
any serious awakening OF political pas
sions or any material disturbance of bus
mess or industry. The next Republican
national platform ought to contain an
assurance that the work OF revision viii
be expeditiously and prudently done.
