To The Members OF The Sewing
Circle.

There is probably not a member of the
circle who does not have occasion to use
gingham. Bingham frocks and aprons con-
stitute one of the necessities of the Ameri-
can home. American women will read
with special interest the following from
Senator Simmons. which shows up simply
one of the many points of attack which
the Republican tariff makes upon the
American housewife. In speech recent
ly Senator Simmons said
Il have taken the duty on ginghams.
That is an average, believe, of 4S per cent.
The initial duty would be 80 per cent In
der this section the duty added would be IL
per cent. That is AZ per cent Then add
the dye duty, and you have S per cent
more. That would raise it above the maxi
mum. 1t could not 60 higher than AS
per cent but the compensatory duty on
account of the Egyptian cotton is not
embraced in that limitation and the COM
pensatory duty according to the calculs-
ton that have here. made b, the expert
would amount to a per cent II there was
Egyptian cotton used in the cloth. which
added to the AS per cent, would make 40
per cent. as against 20 per cent under the
present law"
AS cotton cloth can be made more
cheaply in America than in any Other
country in the world. and there can there.
fore be no reason for the tariff except tc
enable American manufacturers to tax the
American home, the special hardship and
iniquity of this tariff on ginghams become:
elaringly apparent. The above, however
covers only a single item. The tariff on cot
ton is intended 10 increase the price on all
kinds and grades of this universally used
product. In anticipation Of tbe passage Of
this measure prices have already beer
advanced.

Postoffice To Check Mail VioIators

The Postoffice Department has taken
steps to end the practice Of firms and in.
dividuals advertising that their merchan-
disc may be sent by mail, collect on de-
livery. with the privilege of inspection
before acceptance.
Third Assistant Postmaster General
Glover has issued instructions to post
masters TO report at once the names Of
any firms or individuals using advertise
ments giving this guarantee. They were
also instructed to refuse to accept for mail
ing any package containing labels stating
that the recipients may open the package
before settling C. o. D. charges.
Although this ruling has been in effect
ever since the establishment Of the C. o.
d. postal service, complaints have been
innumerable regarding the practice and
the greatest difficulty has been experienced
by carriers in convincing patrons upon de-
livery packages that they are not entitled
TO open them.
Decision of the Third Assistant Post
master General to stop the publication of
advertisements that merchandise may be
examined is the first step in a campaign
