WHERE WAGES ARE HIGH
And Living Is Not Excessive =
Endorses A. L. Griffith.

COAL HILL, Ark, Dec. 94.-(Special.
AS have been subscriber to the
News for year and have never written
anything to the paper thought would
drop few lines and see if they escape
the waste basket.
l have worked here at Coal Hill all
together one year. | like the work fine
and the standard of wages is about $50
per cent. better than in Tennessee, and
the standard Of living is proportionate.
There are some working men in Ten
nessee who if any one tells them that
wages are twice as high in a certain
state will say the cost of living is twice
as high. That is mistake as l will
show you. AS l stated before wages
are $50 per cent higher out here while
the cost OF many things are cheaper
than in Tennessee. Dry goods are
cheaper. The best of beef steak is &c
and SC per lb. Suppose for sake of ar
gument that the cost of living does go
up the work gets better as l will show.
Suppose am getting 80 per day and it
takes one dollar day to keep me up,
and my earning is therefore 81 day
Now suppose get my wages raised to
"a day, or 100 per cent, and the cost
of living goes up 100 per cent. or So and
hence my net earning would be in
creased 100 per cent, also, or So per day.
So you see that old argument can't stand
the test.
saw in late issue of the News a
communication from Amos L. Crit
fifth wherein he stated that Bible dis
cussions rarely amounted to much. l
concur with him in that statement and
also agree with him on the labor ques-
ton. 1t was always strange thing to
me before | begun to study political
economy for myself and not listen much
to the old capitalist politicians. Mr..
Griffith recommends Labor and Capt.
tai by Edward Kellogg. l will also add
that Capital and Labor" by Carl Marx
is excellent. l think it can be found
by writing to the Appeal to Reason,
Girard, Kans Would like to hear from
Mr.. Griffith pretty often on the sub
ject.
Wishing success to the News and its
readers | am,
Respectfully

The Key That UnlOcks the Door to Long
Living.

The men of eighty-fve and ninety
years Of age are not the rotund, we'll
fed, but thin, spare men who live on
slender diet. Be as careful as he will,
however, man past middle age, will
occasionally eat too much or of some ar
ticle of food not suited to his constltu-
tion, and will need dose of Chamber
lain's Stomach and Liver Tablets to
cleanse and invigorate his stomach and
regulate his liver and bowels. When
this is done there is no reason why the
average man should not live to old age.

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease, and prescrib-
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitu tional
disease, and therefore requires consti-
tutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by f. j. Cheney &
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitu-
tional cure on the market. 1t is taken
internally in doses of from 10 drops to a
teaspooniul. 1t acts directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces of the sys-
tenn. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testimonials.
