he was made lord high commissioner,

Wages and the Cost of Living.

According to figures compiled by the
bureau of labor at Washington, wages
and the cost of living have almost kept
mace with each other during recent
wears and there is an exaggerated
idea as regards the advance that ethel
has made. Commissioner Wright fig.
ures that instead of the cost of living
having advanced from quarter to
third it really only shows an increase
of from Is to II per cent. The In
creased wages received by laborers, II
is figured, have been equal to the in
creased cost of living, and the general
statement is made that the condition
of the laboring man is better today
than ever before in the history of the
country"
This is perhaps true in regard to most
trades. but there are notable eXcep
ions-for instance. the people who
draw fixed salaries year after year
As a rule clerks, bookkeepers. school
teachers and host of others are paid
today on the same basis that they were
five years ago. Such persons with nc
increase in their income have had tC
meet the increased cost of living and
also in many cases the increased cost
of labor in certain trades. Take, fol
instance, a clerk or bookkeeper wht
owns his own house and receives the
same salary today that he did five
years ago. Not only does he have tC
pay higher prices for his living ex
penses, but any repairs on his hous,
or property cost him more than they
did five years ago, both on account Of
the charge for material and from tn,
increased labor cost as we'll
1t is upon this class of employee
that the increased cost of living tina
has unquestionably come in recen
years has fallen most heavily, and i
is very large class and serious bur

Concerning common law marriages
Professor Howard presents an exhaus

in it there is hope for the reformer.

1t is awkward and thoroughly illogica

should be appointed to license, solem

In regard to divorce reform he says
1.-THE lawmaker cannot reach the roo

of divorce, which are planted deepl,
in the social system, particularly il
false sentiment regarding marriage
