The water in which pared potatoes have been boiled should never be wasted, as it cont aims much of the most nutritious rart of the potato, but it is usually thrown away, except when used for bread. To make a delicious, wholesome gravy when milk is scarce lift out the potatoes carefully with fork, setting the dish in the oven to dry the potatoes and keep them warm. Thicken the potato water with flour and season with salt and butter. For savory, nourishing soup, mash few potatoes and put them back into the water in which they were boiled, season with onion, celery salt, or the water in which celery tops have been boiled, and add cream or milk and butter. This is one of the most palatable and economical soups that can be made. If the soup is not wanted immediately the potato water can be saved for the next meal or until the next day, or the soup can be made at once, as it is equally good warmed up for lateral meal.

cation makes an increase Of about 20 per
cent Plain unbleached cloth, valued at
7 cents square yard, which is of most
common daily use. is increased from rs
per cent to 81 per cent ad valorem; when
bleached from rs to SO per cent, and when
dyed or colored from 80 to Al per cent
Cheap hosiery is increased about 35 per
cent and that of a higher quality may run
as high as 100 per cent. According to
Senator Bristow's figures-and the Senator
has reputation for carefulness of research
and accuracy of statement-the specific
rate fixed in some cases, as in the duty on
the process of mercerization, is more than
the entire cost of the process, either in this
country or abroad.
While the duty on flax. hemp and jute
is reduced about 3 per cent, very little
benefit will come to the consumer, because
the duty on clothes made from these ma
terials is increased. No reduction is made
in the wool and wooden schedule for the
benefit of the consumer, though the duties
there are indisputably extravagant and
cover three to five times the difference be-
tween the cost of production abroad and in
this country. The duty on cloths and fab
RIGS. running in some instances as high as
1855 per cent, on blankets running from lO4
to 1855 per cent, on knit fabrics running
from IS per cent to al per cent, on
worsted cloths from 81 to 1874 per cent.
on fiannels from SO per cent to lat per
cent, on women's and childrens dress goods
running from 20 per cent to 118 per cent
no reduction is made. The duty on silks
is very largely increased on the theory that
silks are luxury, but there is no reduction
made in the duty on WOODEN fabrics, which
are universal necessity, while on cotton
fabrics the duty is increased.
