smothered they took to the woods
and got nothing for their trouble.

LIVING EXPENSES
ARE AWAY UP
Government Investigating the
Rapid Rise in Price of
Goods Y

Living expenses are increasing at a
rate that finally has startled the gov
ernment statistician-and he is the
last man in the world to be startled
at anything.
For three years the average Ameri-
can housekeeDer has felt the strain OF
increased household expenses, bur,
until within a few months. the matter
has not appealed officially to the stat
istical agents of the government In
deed, less than a year ago. figures were
made public by the bureau of labor
which seemed to Indicate that there
had been no increase in the living eX-
penses of the average American citi-
zen. The figures showed that some
articles OF everyday use in American
households had gone up in price, but
the general percentage Of increase was
so small as to be inconsiderable. At
that very time, il was known to every
householder in the land that his eX-
penses had increased materially and
that he was paying more for the sup
port of his family than he had ever
paid before.
Now, these facts have dawned on
the government officials. The latest
Investigations made by the bureau of
labor have thrown some strong light
on the subject. The criticism made
of the reports made anout a year ago
induced the officers Of the labor bu-
reau to institute an inquiry into the
cost of wholesale amounts Of commo-
dities generally used in housekeeping.
The comparisons instituted covered 4
period of seventeen years.
Wholesale Price.
The inquiry into the wholesale
prices of such articles has been COM
pleted and now an investigation into
the retail prices of thu same commo-
dities is being made. The latter will
not be completed for several months
yet. but the statistics respecting the
wholesale prices has prepared the
statisticians for what they will find
in their inquiry into the retail prices.
In the inquiry only recently conf
pleted, il was discovered that the
wholesale prices of 25S ordinary COM
modities had reached a higher level in
1906 than at any previous time in the
history Of the country. or course the
period covered by the investigation
was only seventeen years, but at no
time prior TO that had prices so high
been attained as to any considerable
number of the articles investigated. on
the whole number of articles. the aver
age price. in 1906. was sc per cent.
higher than in 1905. and 36.5 per cent.
higher than II was in 1897. the year In
which the lowest prices of all the COM
modities were reached in the seven
teen-year period.
The statistics show that the highest
level of prices was reached in Decem-
Der. 1906, the average for that month
being Al per cent. higher than for the
entire yeaz Of 1906. and 6.S per cent.
