COST OF LIVING THE SAME TO-DAY
AS FORTY YEARS AGO.

In the Pilgrims Scrip" in The
American Magazine for November, a
reader contributes a letter proving that
the cost of living has not increased, but
that the standard of living has. Things
cost the same to-day, or less, than they
did forty years ago. He writes:
eff will do as my daddy did, get up
in the morning, take my market-basket
and walk to the places where the same
quality of food and vegetables as he
bought are still handled, l will get them
at the same price, but if demand my
steaks and chops brought to my door,
handled from the day the animal was
born in the most intelligent and scientific
manner, fed and killed in up-to-date con-
ditions, hauled to me in automobiles,
wrapped IN wax paper and delivered by
boy in a clean, white apron, have to
pay for the labor involved. Again, as a
boy in the early SOS, working as a clerk
for five dollars per week, in Philadelphia,
| received fifty cents for supper money
when We were required to work extra.
Of course, | hunted up twenty five
cent place to eat. so that the other quar-
ter would buy some amusement or other
Today, for twenty-five cents, | can get a
better meal in New York restaurants of
the same class, the latter being much
cleaner. In short, it is not the cost
of living that has gone up, but the
standard of living. And all the howl
ing we country boys brought up on a
dollar a-day standard may do, is useless,
SO long as We try to make our now ten
dollar-a-day income pay for fifteen-dol-
lar-a-day style. | tried housekeeping in
London in 1904 Rented a furnished
house in the southeast section, New
Cross. Kept the same woman who had
worked for the regular occupants. We
tried to live on our regular New York
Harlenl-fat standard. The woman open
ed her eyes, so did we, at the bills. Yes,
living is cheaper in London, but only by
the London-living standard. So it is in
New York, if we stick to the Squedunk
standard But the laboring man? A
few years ago we had no such man in
America. He doesen't exist today in
certain parts of New York, Pennsyl-
vania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois of Texas
or any other State. We hear a lot about
his suffering on the East Side. Go look
where he came from. AS matter of
fact, he don't know how to live any
better than he does. He is living so
much better than he did, that he can
hardly stand it. /, an American by eight
or ten generations of residence here,
went to school with boys and girls of the
same class; patches on my pants and
boots were common, also on those of the
other boys. My hoy goes with the chill
dren of fathers who do not yet wear a
hat and mothers to whom a shawl is still
enough, and yet l look in vain for the
patches on their pants or copper on toes
