Ray was told to bring the girls to

mestic.
All declared that the boys" had
set out from home, after the disap-
penrance Of the girls. to locate them

HIGH COST OF LIVING

Great Britain, Germany and all the
other industrial nations have been en-
joying a boom even greater than the
United States. There has been an en-
ormous expansion which some author
tiles believe to be out of all proportion
to the increase of the gold supply.
What would a paltry increase of one
or two hundred millions in the latter
amount to alongside of the tremendous
expansion of the worlds credit? More
gold has been used in the arts and
several nations have recently come
under the gold standard. Moreover,
India has been boarding gold on an
unprecedented scale Her withdraw
ais on this account during the past
eight years have been estimated at
over $4OO,0O0,000 The Balkan-Turk-
ish War has also caused considerable
boarding. The real causes for higher
prices have been: Demand outrunning
supply; rise in land values the world
over; higher standards Of living; in
creased taxation, and several other
minor influences. The best cure is in
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1913-01-08

Henry Clews, of New York, gives his
idea of the problem as follows;
1.-THE problem of high prices still
Inonopolizes public attention, and the
cost of living has become quite as i'm
portant factor in business life as in
private life Opinions as to the causes
of high prices are, of course, divided;
not few authorities, particularly
those of a theoretical habit of mind,
clinging to the theory that gold is the
main cause. While the increase in
the gold supply must have some infid-
ence upon values, its effects are gross
ly exaggerated 1t must be remember
ed that gold is not the chief basis of
credit. Infinitely more credit is based
upon salable property than upon gold.
Moreover, it is doubtful if the increase
in gold supply has more than kept
pace with the worlds rapidly increas-
ing requirements The steamship and
tie cable have wonderfully consoli-
dated the business world, so that to-
day industrial activity is worldwide
ON scale never before experienced.

After the stout woman had Topped
into the nearest armchair, scattering
about twenty-four Christmas bundles
on the floor as she did so, she heaved
even a deeper sigh than one would
naturally have expected under the cir
cumstances.
What's the matter?" asked her
friend. You look as though you'd
lost pounds and pounds from worry"
Il think have" replied the stout
woman, rather feebly. you see, it's
Bessie. Bessie's my favorite niece, as
you know, and she's burdened with
over-indulgent parents who give her
everything she wants before she
knows that she wants it. Now, how
is it possible to please such a girl
with any kind of gift? She has jewelry
by the pound and she gets enough
candy every Christmas to feed an
orphan asylum So whenever Decem-
Der comes around l begin to wiring
my hands and say. What under the
shining sun can l get for Bessie?'
That's the way l got my first gray
hairs! l get a fresh installment Of
them every Christmas.
She was calming down now. Her
friend had politely assumed an air Of
deep attention.

racking effort" went on the stout wo-
man, Il found out that Bessie wanted

buy Bessies present and wrestled
for it with two husky youths, middle
aged woman and half a dozen giggly
girls. l got it, too, although in the
process l lost three perfectly good jet
buttons and sprained my wrist.
That night Bessie's beau brought
her an atrocious big Princeton PEN

of him, wasn't it?"

thrilling recital makes war story

Bessie came over to my house one
day." said the stout woman, land
raved about an embroidered shirt
waist of mine that some poor soul had
spent six monts making. Well, that
gave me an idea and l Immediately
started to make Bessie one like it in
six days. l embroidered until l saw
French knots dancing all over the wall

Even my football playing son, who
/ reels off signals in his dreams, became

when l brought the thing to the table

mon and she wouldn't wear one for
anything"
Dear, dear!" murmured her friend,
alphabetically.
Il felt like telling Bessie that If she
changed her mind again she wouldn't
get any present from me-" said the
stout woman. But next morning I
started out on the warpath, all Spilled
up in my Oldest clothes, so that l
could grab bargains with the best Of
them. l ran into a sale Of jewelry
women six deep fighting over lit
tie 80 cent reduced from 81 coin
purses, and all trying to get waited
on at once. 1t took me half an hour
to get next to the counter. Really, it
was cruel the way l climbed over peo-
pie, but it was for a worthy cause.
Anyway, l got there, found the coin
purses all gone, took another half hour
getting untangled and had to pay So
for the same thing in another store.
After I'd been patting myself on
the back for about day for having
solved the problem | met Bessie on
the street. She hailed me, and then
broke into lamentations. What do
you think, Aunt Helen?' she said.
Uncle Billy brought me another coin
purse last night, and had three al
ready!'
when l came to / was in a drug
store and Bessie was rubbing my head
and cooling, You shouldn't worry so
over Christmas. You know you do too
much, auntie.
Yes, know, Bessie I said. What
do you want for Christmas?
Why, don't know she replied.
Nothing much that can think Of. l
want a diamond ring, but daddy won't
give me one. Must you go SO soon?'
Il think now that I'll go a florists
and order a couple of dozen roses for
Bessie-the stems to be at least three
feet long. ! sent her some when she
had appendicitis and she raved over
them then, but now-goodness knows!
She may have developed a case of
rose fever by this time.
Honestly, the thought of all the
Christmases that are yet to come is
enough to kill any one. Yes, l do feel
as though I'd been through a key
hole.
We'll, Merry Christmas! Here goes
