Cost Of Living.

1t seems to cost a great deal to live
nowadays. Most persons notice it, es-
pecially persons who are hard put to it
to find the money to pay their bills.
The statisticians report that cOmmod-
tiles in general use cost, on an average,
about ten per cent. more than they
did u year ago. The rise in the price
Of meat contributes a good deal to this
advance, though breadstuffs have been
high too. Articles Of luxury like good
clothes and country houses have grown
dearer in proportion than most articles
of necessity, because the huge influx
Of money that the country has sus-
tanned has made a brisk market for
luXuries. Rents are higher; houses cost
more, servants get higher wages; board
is higher at summer hotels. Another
thing that counts for a great deal Is
that in prosperous times like these
the incomes Of very many people are
increased and their expenditures are
proportionately amplified. They Spend
more money, live more luXuriously anC
raise the standard of living. The
living expenses of any given family
are very much affected by the eX
penses of other families Of their &C
qAaintance, and the scale of living Of
''other families" seems just now t.
have become incOnvenlently liberal
There is nothing that we are reader
TO share than our economics. Il Il

Publicity and the Doctor.

The statement is made, says the
Syracuse Telegram, that DR.. Cyrus
Edison, Health Officer of New York,
finds many reasons why reputable ply
slcians should advertise their business
in the daily newspapers. Besides the
benefits to the doctor himself-benefts
to which he is clearly entitled and Of
which he is robbed by neglecting to adj
vertise-it is a great convenience to the
public to learn at first hand where to
find a physician who makes a speciality
Of a particular class of diseases. Dr.
Edison is confident that the ban on adj
vertising will soon be removed.
DR.. Edson whose rank is of the high
est, undoubtedly voices the sentiment
of the more enlightened and progress
sive members of his profession when
he insists that old fashioned prejudice
should be done away with and the
medical faculty should no longer be
compelled to hide their light under
bushel.
A great many physicians get a goOdly
amount of advertising through the pub
lie press, and free advertising ut that.
No physician ever interposes Objec-
lions to having his name mentioned in
the public press in connection with any
notable surgical operations. In fact,
many physicians who look upon paid
advertising with something akin to
holy horror are delighted to get a little
advertising gratis.-FOurth Estate.

A New Pound W eight.

A peddler in the Highlands of Scot
land having run short of butter applied
to a farmers wife for a supply.
How much do you want?" said the
woman.
"a pun will dc" said the peddler
81 Gamma max you a pun" said the
woman. "Why, 1 haze ma a pun

"Weel, what weight haze ye? said the.
peddler
"Twa pun, said the woman.
and which is the weight" said the
man.
"Oh it's just the tongs."
"Weel," said he, put ane leg Of the
tongs in the scale and the other ootside
and thatll be a pun"
The woman did as requested, but
when it was weighed she looked doubt
fully at the butter and said:
1T looks a large pun
ITS alright, woman. How much is

"Sixpence." was the reply.
The peddler paid and hastily Depart
ed. lest she should discover how she

Religious News For Church Ladies.

A good story is told cf a Rochester
divine, not noted particularly for his
humor The Ladies' Club Of a certain
church was called to meet at a stated
time, and every member was especially
charged to bring an item of religious
news.
One of the ladies, probably accus-
toned to depending more upon others
than upon her own resources, finding
herself unprepared with the requisite
item as the hour for meeting APP
preached, conceived the notion Of call
ing upon DR.. Blank, pastor in another
denomination. He responded to the
call on the telephone, when substan-
TALLY the following conversation en-
sued:
ClubwOman--"Dr. Blank, 1 am just
OF my way to a meeting of a woman's
club at - Church. We are required
to bring an item of religious news. Can
