REGULARITY ABOUT PRICES.

In December the price of all things
you bought was the highest on record
in this country. Since then there has
been a decline, although perhaps not
big enough for you to notice it. But
prices are surely going down, when
you take the average of all commodi-
ties.
Six years ago this month prices of
household and other articles touched
the high water mark up to that time,
and then they tumbled swiftly and
steadily until the middle of the next
year. Then they started upward and
never halted to take breath for an
other year and a half, when a new
high level was reached In January,
1910, prices again started to slide
downward, and that toboggan lasted
for eighteen months, when once more
they faced about and started to climb.
For exactly another eighteen months
the price of commodities mounted sky
ward until last December, as / have
said, the average reached dizzy pin
nacle that overturned any previous
one.
Judging from those recent past per.
formances, commodity prices should
now continue to go down until the mid
die of next year. when things would
cost tenth less than they do today.
/ do not predict that this will occur,
but merely give the facts so that you
may make your own guess.-Philadel-
