COST OF LIVING IN NEW
YORK DOES NOT DECREASE

NEW YORK, Feb. S.-Meat prices
are higher than ever today Dropping
for a time when the agitation for
elimination of meat from the diet was
fresh, quotations, both wholesale and
retail, have mounted to figures equal
to and in some cases above those pre-
yailing before the movement began.
Indications are, prominent dealers
said today, that still higher prices are
coming
Increase in demand accounts for
some of the tendency to advance. The
retailers attribute this increase to the
Geld weather. Short supplies are be-
lieyed by the wholesalers to have more
to do with it than anything else. They
believe the agitation has "blown up"

While only child in years, Earle
MUIR son of Joseph MUIR, foreman
of the J. K Orr Shoe Factory, is con-
sidered a stenographic wonder and is
declared to be Atlanta's youngest
public stenographer
Though only twelve years old, he
has thoroughly mastered the famous
Charter system of shorthand, which
he learned at the Bagwe1l Business
College, and is now public stenogra-
pher at the Terminal Hotel He
writes from fifteen to thirty letters
daily and writes them rapidly and
accurately. He can write shorthand
blindfolded and then read it with
perfect ease.
This young man attended night
school at the Bagwell Business Col
lege and mastered the Charter sys-
tenn in three months.
If one so young and only in the
sixth grade can learn this system so
quickly and hold a difficult position
with entire satisfaction, it is con-
elusive proof that it is a great i'm
provement over the old systems, like
Graham, Pitman, Munson, ETC., which
contain hundreds of word signs.
BagWell Business College is the
largest school of it's kind in the
State. 1t also teaches. bookkeeping
and all commercial branches. All
graduates are given good positions
as soon as the course is completed.

When We Hope to Take Our Ease.
How many men are working
their heads off," as the vulgar say
ing has it in order that they may
take their ease after a while? Ev-
ry day you hear of men who want
to get far enough ahead of the
world to take their ease. To retire
from business or from work. Nine
tenths of these men work hard and
never reach the dreamed of ease.
They die in the harness, or they die
struggling TO get something for
which they never will have use
There are two observations that may
be made on these ambitions of men
The first is that there is nothing
in what is called retirement" The
time ought never to come in the life
of man when he intends to sit
down and do nothing. That is death
itself. There is no other word for
it. 1t is labor, interest in and part
in the activities Of life that makes
living. When man becomes merely
spectator by the roadside he is apt
to be of all men most unhappy. A
given amount of work of things and
agairs to be interested in as an ac-
tor, is necessary for the mental and
physical health of every human be-
ing. The change from activities to
nonactivities is enough of shock to
kill the average man. Life is activ-
ity. The second observation is that
a man who is wise will not set all
his enjoyments ahead, to some day
uyh ha thinEc hn rQfirn ond
take his ease. The time to enjoy
life is right now. 1t is every day
little enjoyment, a little rest. We
heard of one man the other day
WHO said that after a while, when he
got his business in shape, he was
going in for golf and other things
of that kind. When he gets his bust
ness in shape, when he thinks he is
rich enough! But will such a man
ever think himself rich enough or, if
that time should come, will he not
be too old to enjoy himself, either
on the golf grounds or elsewhere. He
will be too old when he thinks he
will be ready. The thing for every
man to do is to live in such a way
that he gets some enjoyment out of
make himself a slave to business.
Every day that he does that he
shortens his own life. Every one
should take his pleasures as he goes
along 1t is a mistake to pile all
the work on one end of life and ex-
pect to get all the pleasure at the
other end of life, when he is old
and decrepit and has no longer that
vital interest in enjoyments. The
best rule of life is to count on doing
some work, remaining interested in
some activities as long as one lives
and taking some of the enjoymeIts
from day to day.-Cedar Rapids Re-
publican.
