male and female employees were at
work on postal orders. 1t needed nice
calculating In each case, making the
exchange between French francs,
German marks, English shilllngs,
Russian roubles, Italian Ira, Aus
trian kroners, etc. The records kept
by Mr.. Breny showed France was
sending about Ave times as much to
Germany as was sent the other way,
indicating more Frenchprisoners than
Germans or else more generosity. In
October, for example. France sent
153, 900 postal orders to French SOL
diers In Germany, totaling 1851, 900
francs (s336,000), while Germany
sent $4,000 orders to German SOL
diers in France, totaling 546,000
francs (s110,000.) Russia Is also
sending an exceptionally large num-
Der OF money orders to Its soldiers In
Austria. Hungary and Germany.
Since the war begun, over 81, oo0, 900
francs (s7. 000.000) has been trans
mitted from fapiilies to soldiers Inn
prlsoncd In various countries.
Thousands Of Letters.
Mr., Brenny summed up the mag
nitude Of its work In all classes of
soldier mail as follows: Each day
the Swiss postofiice receives and for
wards an average OF 219.0S4 letters
and postals. 1872 unregistered
packages and 1928 postal orders
this Is the daily average, on the spe-
cial service of soldier mail"

small strings and twines had a finc
inner wire, to give tensile strength,
wound with paper to give an outer
finish and fexibllity. The heavier ropes
were of paper, with strands wound to-
gether into a stout material. But the
little inner wire seemed the basis OF
strength in these strange German sub
stitutes for hemp rope and cord, re-
quired so enormously in ordinary busl-
ness and commerce.

PRICES TO SOAR HIGHER
Clothing, Hats and TOOLS Also to
Go to Unheard-of
Heights

Meat shoes, clothing-all such things that
sne must have-are leaping upward in cost
Just as fast as the public can stand the
shock.
Clothing will cost something like twenty
Ave per cent more before 1917 arrives (:
hats cost eighty-five per cent more to make
than before the war, and that is an indi-
cation of wnat the consumer is going to
pay IL the war lasts; meat is going way
up principally because the demand from
Europe Is so great; hardware is selling
from 100 to 600 per cent above normal (;
coal is going TO cost about 40 per cent
more ton than family men are paying
now.

Weights and Measures, declared that deal
ers in foodstuifs are guilty 'ct highway rob-
berry" and were using the war as their
excuse to boost prices beyond negd\ or
reason.
