together for 20 minutes, or until the
arsenic dissolves. One pint Of this
stock solution and four pounds Of

The extraordinary popularity Of fine
white goods this summer makes the
choice of Starch a matter of great i'm.
portance. Defiance Starch, being free
from all injurious chemicals, is the
only one which is safe to use on fine
fabrics. 1t great strength as stiffen-
er makes half the usual quantity Of
Starch necessary, with the result of
perfect finish, equal to that when the
goods were new.

Starch were used. In order to get the

sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality Of the goods. This trou-
BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as 1t can be applied
much more thinly because Of its great

Sheer white goods, in fact, any fine
wash goods when new, owe much Of
their attractiveness to the way they
are laundered, this being done in a
manner to enhance their textile beau

given to starching, the first essential
being good Starch, which has sufficient
strength to stiffen, without thickening
the goods. Try Defiance Starch and

The directors of the International Paper Go. assert that any reduction of the tariff duty on newspaper will force 8 reorganization of that company and a wiping-out of its preferred stock which is largely held by 4.2O0 women. President Ridder of the American Newspaper Publishers Association answers this statement, as follows:
 The International Paper Company of old mills on investors and MT. Chisholm and the other capitalists who financed that proposition and made it possible to unload worthless securities who financed that proposi- securities on gullible women, should be made to bear the burden of liability not newspaper publishers?
 AS appears by the testimony of General Manager Whitcomb, of The International Paper Company to the Mann Committee the International and eleven paper machines in 1898. It discontinued, leased, sold or turned to other uses, forty-four of the original one hundred and eleven machines It has to-day only sixty-seven machines making newsprint paper. Did it buy the Haverhill mill at high price and disnant1e it from public motives? The stoppage Of those forty-four machines from the production of news print pa nopolize the paper market and to re- strict production and to raise prices.

Upon the matter of levying 10 cents a pound on tea, one who is fully ac- quainted with the conditions of the tea trade says:
 The proposition to tax tea 10c per fb. in order to protect the tea industry of South Carolina is an insult to Am erican intelligence. South Carolina after over twenty-five years of work produces on an average little more than 10000 pounds yearly, and that with Government assistance. The consumption of tea in the United States is about 100. .0OO, GOO pounds year ly. Shall So,0OO, 900 people be taxed for their tea for the benefit of a few holders and against the protests to the Senate and Houses, of consumers and wholesale, Jobbing and retail associa- tions from all over the United States The latter number four hundred thou sand retail merchants, representing the tea consuming public of the United States.
 The poorer classes now pay 25c to 35c per fb. for their tea (not soc to 65c as falsely stated) which can be veri- fled by inquiry at any retail grocery store.
 A tax of 10c per ID. would simply mean that the prices to the consum- CT would be increased that much.
 There is no tea trust, hence compe- tition is Keen and the retailer for his own protection, cannot ask excessive profits
