Singularly enough, cast iron, neveE

six years, failed to burst after 1000

THE High COST OF LIVING AEQ
THE COST OF HIGH LIVING

In our Savior's day the great
question confronting men was,
What shall we eat? What shall
we drink? and Where witia
shall we be clothed? Today, over
twenty centuries after, men are
still struggling with the same
problem, but problem that is
bringing our gray hairs in sor-
row to the grave, for the cost Of
living has increased so .hat II e
average salary does not begin to
meet the demands upon it.
A parison of the prices
now with those twenty Years ago
will show a re1na1kab bic increase,
and while that may partly sx-
plain it, it does not who llv do so
1t is true that the price of food
stuffs ard clothing has materially
adv anc ed. while salaries have re-
manned most stationary, yet the
trouble is not wholly there. 1t
springs from our own NAL ell,
and as long as human nature is
what it is, the trouble will.rt-
main. Man is so constituted that
his wants are always beyond l.
ability to satisfy those wants
and there never comes a time
when he is content with what he
has.
Self-denial once occupi, 4
prominent place among e
Christian virtues, bu. now II
seldom mentioned and raj, y
practiced. Children are pa ml,;-
ed and never denied, so that when
they reached manhood or woman-
hood, they still expect to have
self gratified.
Then this is an age Of extrava-
gancee, an age of great fortunes
and lavish expenditures. If ex-
travagant expenditures were con-
fined to those having great for
tunes, the harm would not be so
great, but man is an initiative
animal, and both male and female
love to keep up with others, and
being unable to afford such lavish
displays, they have to live lie.
The school OF llardships, where
our fathers were trained for life,
and where their characters were
formed, seems to have been clos
ed, and the young demand that
they begin life where their faith
ers left off. Things which at
first were regarded as luxuries
soon become necessitit s, with The
result that this is fast becoming
all age of luxury, and wo are
walking in the steps of natiors
that have passed away, because
they did not know how to control
self.
Instead of gathering statistics
to prove that the cost of living
has increased, or vainly tryin G
TO find out the cause of this in
crease, what we need above all
things else is to go back to the
simple life of the past, a life of
plain living, high thinking, and
modest dressing.
In this we may be able to
arrest our downfall as a nation,
and the question that arises is
whether we are too far gone to
care to reform.
