CONSOLIDATED EXCHANGE.

Selling Of a general character carried
prices lower on the Consolidated Stock EX-
change, with the volume OF business in
creaslng as the decline proceeded. Reach
ing OF numerous stop loss orders added 10
the pressure upon the market. The main
influence affecting trading sentiment 40
versely was last Saturdays unfavorable
Clearing House statement, which was evi-
IDENTIFY causing fear of money market
trouble. In some quarters renewed anxiety
was also expressed regarding the political
outlook. At the lowest levels prices eX-
hibited relative tirmness compared with the
New York Stock Exchange. Lending rates
for stocks at last Saturdays half weekly
carry over had indicated the existence OF
an extended outstanding short interest and
the bears were evidently quite willing TO
take advantage Of the decline 10 secure
profits. Commission houses handled large
business in odd lots. 1t was noted that
Great Northern showed exceptional resist
ance TO the decline, based upon further
favorable reports as to crops in the North-
west Detailed operations follow.

IS CHEAP LIVING IMpossIBLE,

IS CHEAP LIVING IMPOSSIBLE?
From many sources come evidences OF
a growing pessimism regarding any per-
manent improvement in the cost of living
students OF economic problems, business
men who handle the nations food sup
pheS and railroad men who transport
them from the point of production Of mar
ket are practically agreed that those en-
gagged in feeding the nation have more
customers than they can supply, and that
there is no immediate remedy in sight,
says the Washington Herald.

tral railroad, recently gave expression to
the view that under present conditions OF
undersupply in the markets of the coun-
try, the obvious remedy is a Glow and in
teIigent movement of the population OF
cues pack to the farms He declared
mere is enough unoccupied land in the
ohlted states, or enough indifferently Gull
tVated, to raise more food products than
the people of the nation could consume
PRESIDENT Brown advocates a simple re-
adjustment or the industrial forces OF the
country, so that a needed portion Of
workers shall go back from rity 20 coun-
try, till the soil with intelligence and
proLlt ana solve the problem OF the high
cost OF living President Brown does not
leaVe his theory in the air by merely stat
ing II as working hypothesis. He pro-
poses the organization Of a movement by
men acquainted with the agricultural pos
sloil1ues Of the country as a whole and OF
small portions of it as we'll This or
ganization shall shoulder the task OF find
ing suitable families in the crowded cities
ana in the Industrial districts and trans
planting them to the country to raise food
Tor themselves and others
PRESIDENT Brown warns against too sud
den a movement of this kind, which he
declares would defeat its purpose. He
would choose the future farmers with
care and establish them one by one or
IN very small groups upon abandoned
farms or unoccupied land, where they
could work out the problem of a change
OF life and industry without the fear OF
failure.
PRESIDENT Brown sees no hope for the
nations future peace and contentment ex-

The wisest thing Mr.. Blackstone
ever said was to the effect that the
extreme of the law, which approx
mates justice, is injustice. Likewise.
you may have a lot of good ideas con-

have a dishonest hair in your head.
you may be all that is pure and clear

your convictions to extremes, you'll
do just as much to make people I'M
happy as if you were so crooked that
you had to speel in a roundhouse.

Sluggishness, laziness. idleness,
which can all be summed up in that
word of few letters, sloth. and which
can be defined most pointedly, per-
haps, as a dissemination to action or
labor, are germs that trouble hui
mainly sorely. Few are the individ-
uals who are not more or less af-
fected by them, or so it seems. The
lazy life, the idle life is. looked upon
| by many, apparently, as the only de-
sira BILE form of existence.
This is an arrant fallacy, as many
soon find out. Work, active work, and
the harder the better, is what every
normal being needs to keep his mind
in a happy, healthy state and his body
physically sound. A life is a sham,
mere pretense, if an effort is made
to live it without doing such work as
comes to ones hand and to the best
of ones ability. 1t is work that
makes the world march on; that de-
velops civilization to higher, to
nobIer standards. And those who
are not willing to shoulder their
part of it are little better than
menace to society.
As true as it is trite is the saying:
For Satan finds mischief still for
idle hands to do A glance over
any of the daily newspapers is all
that is necessary to prove it's truth
The peccadillos of the idle rich are
nauseating The adversely which
comes to many who are lazy through
choice or idle perforce is lamentable-
Real happiness and contentment are
to be found only among the doors,
