Folk who are complaining on the
high cost Of living here, because of
the war;" might get some consolation
BY taking a squint at the prices Of
1oodstuffs in Hamburg. Eggs are
selling there, for instance, at $3.50 a
dozen. But it is not the high prices
for food themselves that the people
here are kicking so much about. 1t is
the unreasonableness of them that
arouses the ire of the multitudes. And
well it may. Except for the few food
products that are imported in any
quantities there is no good reason why
the war should have caused any ma
