Profits made between producer and consumer are|
charged against the consumer or taken away from the
producer identicay the principle as compound

compound interest accmulates he has an idea how rap
idly the cost of these articles before the article
delivered to the consumer.
Freight charges necessarily increase in the same man.
ner For illustration suppose article is worth $40
the producer at factory 1t is sold by commission
at profit say Of 10 per cent That makes cost the
wholesaler say $11 Now add freight Of say 49, making
total cost to the wholesaler of $13 Now this be
eastern wholesaler and he sells and ships to western
wholesaler, he will want say, 20 per cent profit making
whose freight bill is say 49, This would make the cost
to him $780, Now if he sells to the retailer at 20 per
cent profit he must charge that profit both upon the
cent $780, which is 1892 Even if there further
freight charge the article WILL them cost the retailer
$2352 retailer cannot do business generally upon
much less than 33 13 per cent profit which would require
him to charge 1874 more, that this article, which orig
naly cost $40 to produce will cost the consumer $3 So
There is pretense that these figures accurate

The Eue11i,1g Cht-Chat

TNCE upon a time happened to
have partial charge Of the
renting OF an apartment. As
nj In almost every experience that
brings me into contact with
my fellow men and women, found
much to interest. amuse and instruct
me. But the individual who left the
greatest impression on my mind was
neither interesting nor amusing. nor
instructive, except in the capacity OF a
bad example.
She was a girl Of eighteen. She came
with her mother to inspect the apart
ment. Perhaps I should say that her
mother came with her.
From the moment they began to
make comment 1t was evident that the
mother was not used to even the mod
est degree OF luxury which the apart
ment represented. and 1t was stimuli
taneously evident that the, daughter
would stop at no length of sudeness or
discourtesy to her mother to hide this
fact. Twice she fatty contradicted her
her mother. again and again she
caught her up sharply. and continually
she interrupted her.
How about hardwood floors? % said
the mother. "Are they as easy to
keep clean as carpets?" How ridicu-
lous. mother" said the daughter
sharply. ''one would think you never
saw hardwood floor. or course they
are much easier to take care Of"
Electricity is pretty expensive"
said the mother. Il was rather hop
ing We would find an apartment that
was piped for gas" At this her daugh-
ter cast a perfectly whitening glance
at her mother. She evidently belonged
to that class Of people who thing It is
one deadly sin to admit that anything
costs too much. Il wish you wouldn't
talk such nonsense. mother" she said
rudely. Electricity is Just as cheap
II you use 1t properly. and anyhow I
shouldn't be at all contented with Just
gas"
All through the interview It was
quite evident that the girl felt she was
making a good impression by attempt
Ing to efface her mother.
Needless to say she was not.
Instead. I set her down in my mind
as one OF the rudest, crudest young
girls had ever met.
For to my mind there Is no mistake
that stamps . young man or woman
as underlined more quickly than such
an assumption Of superiority and such
display Of rudeness toward those to
whom they owe all reverence and kind
ness.

country ways and their grammar
1t is often true that the second
generation is superior to it's elders in
matters of education, of superficial
breeding, and in that air of sophisti-
cation and accustomedness to luxury
which we all like to cultivate But that
does not mean that 1t is actually supe-
rior IN things that count. And further
more, 1t behooves the second genera
ton to remember that whatever super
iority 1t has gained was probably given
1t through the efforts of the older folk.
There may be some young people
who would be quite indifferent to the
reminder that rudeness to their par
ents Is wrong and cruel, but surely
there are none who will not be moved

what they did to Lincoln county: They
sent Mr.. Robertson down there to find
out about these things and Mr.. Rob-

His every rang true and found Judgment in

deepest interest of his audience and he held that interest
throughout and all appeared to be sorry that he had to
quit speaking
Mr. Martin outlined plan of action in the interests
of the people, and he promised to make of it live, active
and vital activity the mention of which before

Neither OF the old parties is accustomed to think along

FIRST MATERIAL FUR
 NEW SHELTER COMES
Car Of Cement Receiver and 500 Cars of Ma
 terial Coming

DOUGLAS, Ariz., Jan 12.-The first car of cement off the new shelter of the Calumet and Ari- zona smelter arrived yesterday from Fl PasO, where the contract for all the cement required for the con crete foundations and buildings has been awarded. It is expected now that cement will be coming along as fast as required. and that very soon the foundation work will be under way It will require time for the structural iron contractors to manU- facture the material and none Of it is expected to arrive for sixty days, but in the meantime the foundation work will be pushed to completion.
 It has been estimated that in- cluding brick, cement and all other material required for the new smell ter will require not less than 500 cars to haul it to Douglas. and this will give an idea of the importance of the work which has been started by the C. x A. company.
 To do this work will require a force of several hundred additional men, who will be employed in Doug las during the next six months and this will mean much additional business for the merchants of the city Then when the plant is com plete a much larger force will be required for it's operation 10 its ca pacity than .he present one.
