From the garret to the cellar furnishing the American home should he cheap er when the new tariff law gets into i;oud working order. Import duties on curtains, furni ture, carpetH, table linen, glass and china ware, kitchen utensils and oth er household articles are all sharply cut. . Some of the tax reductions may eventually filter through to Mrs. American Housekeeper. Foes of the new law its political enemies assert that the tariff slashing will have little effect upon American pockethooks ui retail stores.

Lumber also is on the free list, giving 'American manufac turers of furniture the opportunity to buy Canadian planks cheaper. San guine Democrats believe 5 per cent, will be a fair decrease in retail fur niture prices, a predicted saving of $5 on $100 worth of new furniture." Fifteen per cent, duty Is taken off kitchen utensils, but foreign compe tition is slight In this field.

Having lovely weather in our vicln-i Ity at present. ; Mr. Lafe Kngels went to Uoseuurg cheaper, the duty having been cut about 40 per cent. Putting in a new furnace may bo more pleasurable, economically, under the new law, as tho duty on such house warmers has been reduced from 4H to 20 per cent. However, lew foreign furnaces are now Imported. For tho dining room table, dishes of china, porcelain, eartfien ware and stono are reduced in duty about one-fifth. The retail price on these articles is expected by friends of the the law to drop at least 5 per cent., affording a saving, for instance, of $1 on a set of dinner dishes worth $20. On cheap earthenware and pot tery a reduction of retail prices can hardly bo expected. While the duty on cotton table cloths is reduced from 40 to 25 perj cent., estimated importations next ; year are only $Mp0,UO0, not enough; It Is believed, to cut retail prices even i at the department stores. Cotton 1 towels, dolies, blankets, sheets and pillow cases, etc., are reduced from about 40 to 25 per cent. In the new law. Some slight retail price reduc tions are expected to result. Lino leum should be slightly cheaper. For eign imports next year under the new law are expected to aggregate $2,000,000 and force retail reduc tions in this country. Duty on cot ton window .curtains are reduced about 12 per cent, and some portion of that reduction may reach the buyer. A saving of from 25 to 50 cents on woolen blankets is expected by friends of the new law, because of the sweeping tariff reductions on wool and its products. This decrease will hardly be felt for a year or more. From 5 to 1!0 per cent, slashes In retail prices on cotton and woolen camels is also confidently predicted by the Democrats. .Mr. Homer Polinett was a business visitor In Feel Monday from Cairte Creek reports school progressing nicely In his vicinity in charge of his father, H.
