capital to 31 1,000,000, This Is the third i or fourth Increase sineu when the trust was incorporated with 80,000,000 capital. These enormous profits have been roade, In spite of tho fact that the trust closed all but about 13 of Its öl mills in ItiSS and has since been buying competing plants at high prices, the most of which it promptly closes. Mc

Kinley encouraged this trust with a duty which equaled at per cent. The Wilson bill left only 30 per cent. It should have removed all because our

exports in lv.l.1 amounted to c When O. C. Harber, president of tho trust in September H'J3, was pleading fur the retention of the duty of 10 cents per gross on matches "to keep up the t ........... . nm mm liavillL'." Ills

man of the trust said in an interview printed in thu Milwaukee Journal: "We ask no protection of congress, bemim 9wu do not need It. Matches are

made so cheap in this country that foreign goods cannot be sold in competition with us. True there has been a duty on matches for several years but it has not been kept at our request.

There may have been a time wneu

such a protective duty was nucunsuij to develop thu industry in this country, but that day has passed a long time ago. It will probably surprise a great many people to know that less than 8100,000 worth of foreign matches are sold annually in the United States. These are chiefly fancy brands put up in odd and attractive packages. The fact is, matches cannot be made in nh,aulv as we make them

Haddock Stewed in Milk: Dissolve an ounce of butter in a frying-pan, add a half pint of milk, stirring it to prevent burning. Then take three dried haddock, skin, and divide each into two fillets. Stew for about a quarter of an hour, or till the fish Is thoroughly cooked. Place the fillets neatly on a hot dish, thicken with milk and pour over. Serve very hot for breakfastLeeds Mercury.

Cream Cheese: Is much HUcu ny some epicures. Take sour cream, salt it slightly and hang it up in a linen bag to drain until dry. This takes two days or more.
