COST OF LIVING SCARS
And the Plant Of the Plain People is
Heard on Every Hand,

D
Heard on Every Hand.
The question OF most absorbing interest
to the people of the country az this time
is the constantly increasing cost Of living.
Prices have been gottlng steadily higher
and higher during the last six or eight
years and have now reached the point
where the pinch is felt by persons in all
stations Of life.
The forthcoming report Of the Labor
Bureau on retail prices for 1905 will show
that the cost Of meat. flour, vegetables
and other articles Of food continued its
upward flight during that period. A fur
ther important admission will be made
that there was no corresponding increase
in wages. This is the first time that this
report will show the absence Of that on
set.
The advance in prices is not confined
to the products Of the factories and mills.
The farmer has boosted prices because
/ everybody has. The housewife returns
from market with sad story Of ex-
tortionate demands by the butter man,
the chicken seller and the dealer in
/ beans. peas and tomatoes. without the
excuse that the wicked trusts and the
robber tariff are responsible the dealers
in these homely commodities send theii
prices kiting and the common people foot
/ the bills.

The Power Of Habit.

The power Of habit is never realized
until a man tries to stop using some par
ticular thing. Especially true is this with
the consumers Of James NJ Bryan's

any material they are not accustomed tC
using, but when they do. and II is salts

In a toy shop yesterday a woman
spent many minutes examining a great
variety of toys. Finally holding up a
rubber elephant, she asked; do you

think he could chew it up at once?"
A listener thought: What a destruc-

The salesman said there were many
