THAT "PlRa1IcALn RETAIL DEALER.

Secretary Wilson's figures on the
cost of living are being received by
many as pointing toward the retail
meat dealer and his profits as the
causes of high meat prices. It is TO be
presumed that the investigation. if il
lis continued, will keep on pointing at
the retailer in explanation OF the high
cost of other necessities until Il brings
into the limelight the other retailers
and explains" the reasons for high
clothing. high farm implements, high
coal, oil products, and all the other
necessities.
But before We join in general con-
demnation of the retail dealer Let us
look all the ground over thoroughly.
These retailers live next door TO US.
They are part Of the communities
where we live. We not only know them
but we know a great deal about how
and how much they are accommodating,
how great their capital, how hard they
work. They are our neighbors. Let US
be careful how we join in cry of
stop thief raised upon our friends
and neighbors and business associates,
a cry which may have been raised in
order to draw attention away from the
actual culprit and furnish the trusts
time.
Is the average retail dealer getting
rich any faster than he should by rea-
! son Of MS hard work and the lavish
opportunity Of the past ten years. Is
| the average retail dealer making more
/ than a fair competence? Isn't it true
that the average farmer has as much
or more 10 show for his labor, risk and
( investment? Let US look about us be-
fore we condemn the retail dealer and
forget the trusts.
In the large cities the meat consumer
without doubt is paying more than a
! legitimate margin Of profit but the re-
taller isn't getting it. The syndicated
meat shops get their retail prices from
the packers who supply them. These
retailers are simply agents of the
trust which controls them, as much so
as the tentative owner of d brewery
saloon is of the brewery which owns
it, or as some poverty stricken trans
fierce of a hunted violator of the liquor
law is of the person who transfers a
saloon to him.
The little butchershop on the alley
buys it's meats and makes a good prof
it; eight-tentls of that profit goes for
labor, rent, fuel and lights. There is nc
Watered stock here. He borrows the
money TO buy with, he waits for his
pay, in many instances. Sometimes he
waits forever for he doesn't usually re-
fuse soup bone to the woman who
! comes in without a cent when sickness
is in the family and hunger stares. He
takes his chance that her imam" viii
get well. They have paid him before
and he takes a chance. His percentage
of profit is high, but it is percentage
based upon an actual investment o.
money, rents and labor. 1t is not bull
upon alleged investment, on stool
, ballooned with wind and distendet
with water. How many meat retailer
are getting rich? How many retailer
: in any line are coming money? A grea
many are doing we'll. Why shouldn'
they? Not one of them who isn't work

IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES.

Referring to the fight in the Ninth
district, the Scranton Journal says that
had Judge Smith given as much at
tention to the best interests of his
patrons as he has to the corporation
interests, there is no one that could
a1slodge him now. The temptation was
TOO enticing and like Adam, he fell.
However. the Ninth district has abund-
ance of splendid material and none bet

The Third Handle.

Henry ~. of France while hunt
ing became separated from his COM
panions and, feeling thirsty, called
at a wayside inn for a cup of wine.
The serving maid on handing it to
him as he sat on horseback neglect
ed to present the handle. Some
wine vas spilled, and his majesty's
white gauntlets were soiled. While
riding home he bethought him that
a two handled cup would prevent
a recurrence of this, so his majesty
had a two handled cup made at the
royal ~potteries and sent it to the
inn. On his next visit he called
again for wine, when, to his aston
ishment, the maid, having received
instructions from her mistress to
be very careful of the kings cup,
presented it to him by holding il
herself by each of its handles, AT
once the happy idea struck the king
of a cup with three handles, which
was promptly acted upon, as his
majesty quantity said, "Surely, out
of three handles / shall be able to
get one!" Hence the loving cup.

BIRTH or THE MOON.
When the Earth Was q Sphere OF Lava,
Moitsn and F~lattened.

The earth revolves on its axis
once in twenty-four hours. Mil
lions of years ago the day was
twenty-five hours; millions of years
before it was twenty-one hours. As
we look backward into time we find
the earth revolving faster and
faster. There was a time ages ago,
long before geology begins, when
the earth was rotating in Il day of
five or six hours in length. In the
rcmotcst past the earth revolved in
a day of about five hours. 1t could
~reyo,yc no faster than this and re-
main a single unbroken mass
It was at this time that the moon
WAS born, separated, broken off
from the parent mass of the earth.
Tie earth was then a molten, fiat
tened sphere of lava. Its whole
BODY was fluid. The tides, which
now are small, superficial and, so to
say, local, we're hen universal and
immense. They occurred at short
intervals. The whole surface of our
globe was affected. And the cor
responding lunar tides in the fluid,
molten moon were indefinitely
greater still.
Our day is now t~wenty-four
hours. The distance of the moon is
now 100000 miles. When our day
was about five hours long the moon
was in contact with the earth's sur
face. 1t had just broken away from
its parent mass. AS the length of
the terrestrial day increased, so did
the distance Of the moon. The two
quantities are connected by inexo-
rable equations. If one varies, so
must the other. Whenever the ro-
tation time of a planet is shorter
than the period of revolution of its
satellite the effect of their mutual
action is to accelerate the motion
of the satellite and to force it to
move in a larger orbit, to increase
its distance, therefore.
The day of the earth is now
shorter than the month-the period
of reVolution-of the moon. The
moon is therefore slowly receding
from US, and it has been receding
for thousands of centuries. But
the day Of the earth is, as we have
seen, slowly growing longer. The
finger Of the tides is always press
ing upon the rim of our huge fly
wheel and slowly but surely lessen
ing the speed of its rotation. So
long as the terrestrial day is shorter
than the lunar month the moon
will continue to recede from u.s.

has SOLVED THE PROBLEM
Business Man Now Understands What
Becomes Of Show Window
leftavers.

The mooted question Of what be-
comes of the tempting displays Of
cake, pies and other dainties which
delight the eye from the show win
dows OF restaurants, llnehrooms,
bakeries. etc, 10 an old and familiar
one. These window displays an
frequently allowed to remain un8's-
turbed for days, and Of course tie
toothsome morsels must dry up and
grow stale. The average person
often has wondered what eventu-
ally becomes of them.
One Pittsburg business man has
found the answer. He gets them in
neatly wrapped lunches for which
he sends his Office boy each day. For
many moons he has been putting up
with ossifed doughnuts, potrj&c3
sponge cake and other solicited It'd
bits, but the limit Of forOearaDcc
was reached the other day when tn"
boy brought him an adamantine slab
of gingerbread of harveyizeJ lnaeHt-
bility.
A few minutes later the dairy
lunch man received a second call
from the Office boy, who handed him
a neatly wrapped parcel. Opening
it, he discovered the slab of ginger
bread and a typewriter note say
ing:

turned, as you failed to send along

with it."-Pittsburg Gazette Times.

COURTEOUS

One of the most courteous pick
pockets On recoed came to light at
New York the other day on the
steamship docks, where the liner
Majestic was preparing to sail for
Liverpool. Kyosuka Iwai, a Japa-
nese business man, missed his wallet
whsn he reached for his ticket.
After he had recovered from the
shock he said the wallet contained,
besides his ticket, a draft on London
for $3.50 and $50 in cash. He was
standing around despondently when
. messenger boy appeared, waving a
wallet, wh5ch he said a man told him
TO give TO q Japanese ON the steamer.
