This is remarkable record, and prob
ably unprecedented. The flies have not
been examined, but it is altogether GER
tain that never before in the history Of
the national banking system Of the
United States have ten months passed
without more than two failures. or loss
OF more than s125.ooo. 1t goes without
saying that it is due TO the healthy
financial condition of the country.

There is no disputing the advance in
the price OF food supplies OF ali kinds.
They were never so high as now. Even
canned goods, which at this season OF
the year are offered for almost anything
they will bring to clear out the shelves
for new stocks, are at least 10 per cent
and for some articles % per cent higher
than the winter prices two years ago.
The increase in the prices Of cheap
clothing il scarcely noticeable. they tell
ne. Certain kinds OF garments are sell
ing lower than ever before. Others have
suffered sharp advance. The average
standard goods at ready-made stores are
said TO be slightly higher than year
ago. the advance representing the in
creased cost OF labor.
The committee inds nothing cheaper
than it was five years ago. The aver
age, therefore, must show an advance.
for very few prices remain stationary.

agree that the cost Of living among the
working classes has fully kept up with

This railroad would be a great thing
for that country, Of course. II would
furnish transportation facilities for ter
ritory that is very rich in material re-

The cost Of living has materially in
at the restaurants, and has kept pace
with the increase OF wages. A commit
tee OF one of the charitable societies in
this city has begun a careful investlga-
ton. which is still in progress. The OIL
Gals cannot give me definite results at
present because the returns are incom-
plete and imperfect. but speaking gen.
orally they expect TO show an average
advance OF not less than 3 per cent with
in the last five years. A portion Of the
advance, however, they explain, is more
apparent than real The working people
are living better than formerly. and are
getting more for their money The in
crease in their wages and the certainty
OF employment enables those whose in
comes are always more or less precarious
to indulge IN better houses. better cloth
ing. and better food than they were sc-
customed to before conditions Of pros
perity set in. No man need be without
well-paid employment in this part Of
the country. Labor is very scarce. The
newspapers are full OF advertisements
for working men and women OF all
trades and occupations. The bulletins
that hangs at the doors Of the intelligence
Offices are for help wanted. Wages are
ordinary labor are now s1.25 a day, as
against 81 and rs one and two years
ago. The Improvement among mechanics
and every other class of wage-earners
has been similar Hence. with more
money 10 spend. their requirements have
become greater, and the dealers from
whom they are accustomed to buy their
supplies have been able TO charge them
higher prices and sell them more goods.

TRUE ARMoR.

Proper Food Defends Against Disease.
There is an assayer and chemist in
Rosita, Colo, Mr.. G. Wulsten, who
shows by actual every day demonstra-
ton that scientific food will make
man young again. He says:
"rhe question Of proper food which
will assimilate and protect the system
from loss and waste of brain and mus
Gle. becomes serious one when man
advances to my age of past 6S. / am
continually under a brain and muscle
strain which for the last 35 years wore
upon me seriously. My digestion be-
came Impaired and my whole system
weak.
81 saw Grape-N Nuts In grocery store,
and bought box. 1 tested 1t in my
laboratory and found 1t correct accord
ing to your declaration of it's sub
stances in proportion with the phos-
pilates intact.
81 made 1t my principal food and
gained in one year is pounds in weight,
and had the pleasure of seeing my in
digestion leave me entirely.After a
year and half of it's use, I feel 20
years younger and am as strong and
supple as never was before during
the last decade. simply have found
the true armor which is defending my
body against disease and whitening
age.
II find 1t of advantage in field work
and when prospecting in the noun
tains. When go out upon geodetic
expeditions, / take a quantity of Grape
Nuts along with me. This abolishes
cumbersome baggage and food cook
ing utensils. A little sugar. a can of
condensed milk, my Grape-Nuts, and ]
have my food in a closely condensed
form, not weighing over pounds to
carry and never get hungry. Con-
centrated reagents are the most eff
fective in all chemical operations, and
Grape Nuts are the reagents that
keep the bodys laboratory (the stom-
ach) in perfect working order. Your
