COST or LIVING AND WAGES.

Cost Of living is higher than last
year, but the advance in wages is
greater than the advance in the prices
81 food products The United states
bureau Of labor has just sent to the
public printer the results of an ex-
haustfve study of the situation re-
garding the cost Of living and the re-
turns for, labor.
Food products are higher. An aver
age taken for % or 80 of staple arti-
cIes of food shows an advance Of near
" q per cent for the year 1906 over the
4eding. A comparison of food
- Naso shown that the vege-
tartan would have the best of the ar
gUmsnt from an economic standpoint
lard, pork, bacon. ham, fish, mutton
and butter headed the list Of products
tfat had advanced In price.
With study of the cost of living
eaue also study of the advance of
wages and the comparative purchas-
ing power of the wage learners dollar
TIE report gives figures showing the
advance in wages per hour for manual
Mper over the preceding year and
AHts that it is greater than the adj
gnf.ce In retail prices Of food by nearly
IL per cent.
AS compared with ten years aver
aga from 1880 10 1900. the wages per
nour IRE 25 per cent higher the num-
Der 81 employees 4s per cent greater
ana Tic average hours Of labor per
week 8 Per cert lower. The gain of
waTes in tic manufacturing industries
showed nearly : Per cent for the year
1sas over the preceding year
This IS a condition, not theory.

way through college by writing jokes
and stories. He wrote a book of S0,~
900 words when he was IL. In 1900
he gave up college and went to Cana
da to write King Midas" his first
successful book. For four years he
lived in shanties and tents, often sub
sisting on fish and game. During the
next summer he wrote Prince Hagen
The publishers rejected it, and during
that time he nearly starved in New
York. Mr. Sinclair then became a So
cialist and wrote Manassas" the
first of Civil war triology, in shan
ty that he built near Princeton, N. J.
His most striking work, "The Jungle
was written In 1905, and described
conditions of a horrible nature alleged
to exist in the great packing houses of
Chicago. The charges which the au-
thor made against the so-called beet
trust attracted the attention of the
president Of the Unitd States. "A fed
eral investigation was ordered, and
the result was great change in meth
DDS in the packing houses, thorough
cleaning up and betterment of the
living and working conditions in the
packing house district. Another re-
suit was the enactment by congress OF
a rigid meat inspection law.

There is more Catarrh in this Sec
tion of the country than all other dis
eases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed to be incur
able. For great many years doctors
pronounced it a local disease and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment. pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be constitu-
tional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.
Cheney s. Co., Toledo, Ohio. is the
only constitutional cure on the mar
ket. 1t is taken internally in doses
from 10 drops to teaspoonful. 1t acts

faces of the. system. They offer one
