HIGH Living and Wages.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 1.-The
bureau of labor will shortly issue the
results of an exhaustive study of the
increased cost of living during the last
few years in relation to the increase
of wages. The results show that there
has been a striking similarity between
the advance in wages and the increas-
ed cost of living, and that neither has
gone forward as much as popularity
supposed. The current report that
commodities have advanced q per
cent Is shown to be wide of the mark.
1t will be nearer 10 or II per cent.

The New Year.

A new year with all it's posi-.
bilities for good or evil is open
ing up before us. Will each one
us make the most of our oppor-
tunities and do the best we can?
Let us make the effort aud even
though we should fail we will
be better for having made the
effort. The pages of time have
just closed over another year,
1902 is now history. All OF us
have had many trials and temp
tations and many of us have
yielded and done the things
which we should not have done.
Let us not continue to grieve
over the things which are past
but let us turn our faces toward
the future with a stronger de-
termination to do that which
is right, asking the help of the
Maker and Ruler of TIE Uni.
verse to- sustain us. Nof one of
us live to himself alone. Each
one of our acts will have au in
huence until the Earth shall
pass away. Then, how careful
we should be TO so live that our
influence will be for good. To
some of us 1903 will bring sor.
row and sadness. Some of us
will cross to that other shore
to that land from whose
bourne no traveller has yet re-
turned, but let us be prepared
to go when the summons may
come. During all the past
years of our lives each one OF
us has made mistakes; during
all the future of. our lives we
will continue to make mistakes.
but we must at all times do the
best we possibly can and all will
be well.
