BROOM TRUST

the avarice os the trust is not soon

A quiet. peaceable. well-behaved
broom that ninety days ago cost the
consumer 20 and 80 cents now costs

stores the increase has been five cents
higher, bringing the cost OF the best
grade OF brooms up to 55 cents.
But there is worse and more Of it..
The trust in raising prices has lessened
the quality Of the product, making
brooms of much lighter weight and
less durability than formerly. Sew

brooms which three months ago cost

jumped to S42s dozen. They have

is limited, the more volatile matters
are burned away, and most Of the carr

In n finely divided state charcoal not
only condenses gases to a marvellous
extent. but also has the power of alb
sorbing coloring matters. Il is a very
rapid absorbent OF gases of every
kind, and is much used in the dis
