Rep. Kelly has made an interesting
tabulation Of food prices taken from

roast II per cent and pork chops and
smoked bacon and lard have been
proportionately advanced.
Flour has gone up rs per cent,
$1.60 a barrel having been added to
the price; while corn meal is % per
cent higher than it was week ago;
eggs are 20 per cent higher; butter
has gone up rs per cent and granu-

DR.. True's Elixir

1t can be authoritatively stated
that, Notwithstanding the alarming
increase in the price of drugs on &C
count of the European War, at least
one old reliable medicine, DR. Trues
Elixir, will not be increased in price.
Perhaps nowhere has the scourse
OF the war been more keenly felt in
this country than on drug prices.
This is a natural consequence since
many of the drugs used in making
medicines are imported and since the
first of August these importations
have totally stopped. Prices quickly
advanced. Some have been doubled,
others have risen five hundred, eight
hundred and even a thousand per
cent. In list OF ten common drugs,
all largely used in compromising
medicines, the prices have advanced
on an average of owe 500 per cent.
The DIR. J. f. True Co., maker OF
DR. True's Elixir, has been hard hit.
II is a fact that nearly every ingredi-
ent used in compromising the famous
Elixir has advanced in price, some
