'H00RAY! PROBLEM
OF RENTING COST
OF LIVING SOLVED!

Hooray fellers! Hooray, and

hooray!
Why the jubilant publication
ness?
Easy. Everybody get happy.
The problem of beating the high
cost Of meat has been solved
Yessir. And In the very incest
kind OF way, too, The answer is,
don't eat meat. Eat chicken.
What's that? Back up, our troll
ley's Off?
Not on your life. The chicken is
the real dope, and if you don't be-
lieve it just get your lead pencil
and piece of paper and do little
figuring.
Now, in the days when you and
j and the rest of us were kids,
chicken was considered to be a
delicacy. II was only on state &C.
casions, or on Sunday when the
minister came to dinner that we
had chicken, an dthen ma was al
ways careful to warn us not to ask
for more than two helpings, so we
never had quite all we wanted.
But times have changed since
then, and prices have changed with
them. In those days nice plump
chicken cost us fourbits, and we
thought that was high But also
round steak was only s cents a
pound. and good cuts of sirloin and
porterhouse were to be had for
12s and 10 cents.
Nowadays 1t is muchly different.
The price of beef steak is up
among the clouds, and chicken is
selling at 16 cents pound live
weight. or 20 cents dead weight,
with the feathers stripped off.
Now this is where the chicken
figures the cheapest: At 10 cents

The young wife was determined

VILLAGE TERRORIZED
.~. BY UNKNOWN MEN

Paris, August 20-(Special.)-The little
village of Pegomas, near .Frasso, has
again been terrorized by another Of those
extraordinary crimes committed by people
of whom nobody in the village has been
able to catch sight
The project of the Alpes Maritimes has
gone to Pegomas to look into the matter
and a special meeting of the municipal
council has been called. Twelve gen.
darmes will patrol the little village every
night until the criminals are discovered,
and all the Inhabitants have been ordered
to submit any weapons they possess to
careful examination.
Here are a few of the crimes recently
committed by the phantom bandits, as
the people of Pegomas call them. A

PARIS CABMAN GETS

Paris, August Especial From time

that in spite of their many faults and

Paris cabman is nevertheless as honest
as the rest of his compatrots. He will
scrupu1ously return not only worn-out
umbrella, forgotten in his cab, but will
also hand bag full of money and valu-
ables to its obvious owner, or to the po-
lice of a cabman called Paillor, whose
name certainly deserves to be printed,
who found in his cab bag containing a
sum In cash of $500 and nearly S1500
worth of securities. The cabby, ignorant

When gentlefolk abided in moated

REMARKABLE EXODUS
TO CONSTANTINOPLE

Cairo, August 20.-(Special )-There has
been a remarkable exodus of Egyptians
and Turks to Constantinople this summer
The long procession of carriages which
used to drive every afternoon in the hot
season along the famous Gezira road in
Cairo or the Ramleh road to San Stefano,
has dwindled into nothingness. 1t used
to be one OF the sights, but now these
carriages are conspicuous by their alb
sence.
The reason of this migration to the
shores of the Bosphorus Is twofold. Dur
ing the regime of Abdul Hamid neither
Turks nor natives dared to enter his do
minions-at any rate, Turkey in Europe
for they never knew what intrigue was

on foot or whether they would ever return
thence. -
When the constitution was first pro-
claimed a few of the more venturesome
spirits went to Constantinople to pay
their respects to the new. powers.
AS they returned alive and affairs
seemed OF have become normal once
more, their example was followed the
next year, and. the exodus has gone on
inorea sing.
This year, perhaps. the long stay of the
Khedive-a stay which Is said to be in
connection with concessions for the vast
estates he has just purchased-has no
doubt attracted an extra number of Wis
itors, but the exodus has aroused no lit
