"ALL have TROUBLES"
SECRETARY ROWLAND SAYS
BLAME FOR HIGH PRICES
Is UNJUSTLY PLACED.

Consumers are justified in regis
tering complaints against the high
cost of living, but kicks" against the
increased prices of commodities
should not be strewn around promis-
cuousIy, 1t was remarked today by
William Rowland, secretary of the
Madison Merchants association. Mr..
Rowland said that retailers. the coun-
try over, are the recipients of much
unjusitfiable criticism for the reason
that 1t is they who deal directly with
the consumer, and because there are
some who do not look to the real root
of the condition of high prices.
Steadily since the outbreak of the
European war, markets on the great
majority of items sold in the retail
store have gone higher and higher"
said Mr.. Rowland. The general rule
for the past two years has been stead
lily advancing prices. The merchant
lis paying a lot more for nearly every
thing he sells than he paid two years
ago, one year ago or even a few
months ago.
Every time the cost of living is
boosted, people naturally complain,
and | cannot say hal those who pro
test are TO be blamed. Ii is true.
however, that those who censure the
merchant, come very wide the mark.
The retailer has his troubles, even as
the man or woman who thinks he or
she is the real martyr, and then
some. The profit or o OF the ar
ticles the merchant sells and delivers
is less than ii has been for a great
number of years before, and at the
same time it is costing the dealer
o TO conduct his business.
Due to causes which are being in
vestigated by commissions. the manu-
facturer and producer have advanced
prices TO the retailer. The retailer is
rot in a position to increase his prices
on many items as fast or as much as
is required to offset the greater
amounts he must pay. i think that
if the buying public will look thor
oughly into the sources of increased
costs. merchants will not be held re-
sponsible.

BOYS and CIGARETS
CONDITIONS DEPLORED by CIVIC
LEAGUE WHICH CONTEM-
PLATES STARTING
CRUSADE.

Following charges hat dealers are
selling cigarets to Madison youths. a
movemen was set on foot by mem
beers of the Civic and Child Welfare
league, at a meeting of that %organiza-
ton last Tuesday afternoon in the
Lyric theater, TO inaugurate a city
anticigaret crusade.
Teachers i'm both the public and
Normal schools told that boys whom
they knew had formed the habit of
smoking cigarets. and mothers relat-
ed that i'm spite of their efforts to
disuade their little sons, the boys
smoke when opportunity presents
itself.
The statement was made hat some
merchants are selling the boys to-
bacco i'm direct violation of the law,
and thai TO obtain a supply of the
weed a boy has only TO say that he
is purchasing it for his father. II
was declared that boys only 10 years
Of age are among those who repair
TO bridges or barns. on their way
home from school. to indulge in
smoking. So pronounced has become
the desire Of some of the boys for to-
baeco that they will now pick up Gig
aret butts and smoke them.
We hear of these conditions eX-
isting i'm larger cities and it seems
almost incredible hat they exist
right here in Madison" said one
member.
Plans were discussed for carrying
on a regular organized anticigaret
crusade in the near future. Also a
committee was appointed 10 wait up
on the states attorney and find out
in what way the anticigaret law may
be enforced. both as regards selling
and using cigarets.
At the next meeting some definite
step will be taken in IN effort 10 stop
the use of tobacco by young boys. IT
was said.
Another movement on the part of
the club which will interest parents
is the effort of the child welfare
committee to secure a skating pond
for the children. In trying TO OBJ
tain suitable vacant lots TO be flood
ed for an ice pond, Mrs. Thos. Nc
Gee, chairman of the committee,
learned that one of the new enter
prises to be undertaken i'm our city is
a skating rink. Mr., u. Steele has
leased the old Park lake from Glatz
Bros, and will have the grounds
fenced and flooded as Don as wealth
er conditions are favorable. In talk
ing with club women in regard TO
this. Mr.. Steele stated that he expects
to build and keep heated a small
building where skaters may get
warm, have electric lights over the
pond and will endeavor 10 run a
strictly first class skating rink. He
will personally see hat no profane
language or rough talk is permitted
on the pond. lust what the charge
will be for admission to the rink Mr..
Steele did not state. but the club
women arranged with him 10 have

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
lnfiamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an in
ftamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars

catarrh) that cannot be cured by

Some folks leave. home for money
And some leave home for fame.
Some seek skies always sunny,
And some depart in shame.

Men travel east or west,
Or what the month or season
The home town is the best.
The home town is the glad town
Where something real abides,
'TiS not the moneyed-mad town
That all it's spirit hides.
Though strangers scoff and f1out it
And even jeer It's name

No other town can claim.

To distant towns to live,

Could not repay me quite
For those familiar faces
That keep the home town bright

LOCKHART JUNCTION

Lockhart Junction, March 13.-It
looks like the weather is going to
make change today; looks like
spring again. On March 21st spring
begins, as the almanac tells us, but
some say we will have late spring.
We will see what will be.
Well, since my last letter there has
been several deaths. Several good
men has gone the way of all the
world. Messrs. w. o. Southard, F.
M. Adams, B. G. Wilburn, w. Newell
Smith, who had moved from Union to
Greenville several months ago, was
buried at Union last Friday, 10th.
Mr.. F. M. Adams death was a
shock to this community, as his death
came so soon, by accident He and
the writer were school mates; were
in the same class and loved each 9TH
er like brothers. 1 have been in his
home several times since he grew to
manhood and reared family. 1t was
pleasure to him and also to the
writer to meet together. He still had
that same good, kind courtesy and
friendly feeling for me as when we
were boys together and we have often
talked of our boyhood days. This is
fresh in my memory today and it is
sad to think he is gone. 1t is also
sad to think of the others who have
gone, but this only reminds us that
we ourselves are some day, sooner or
later, to pass away.
The families of these dear friends
have the sympathy of this commun-
| ity.

THE ORDINARY MAN.

He kept the middle of the road, and
did his level best,
A simple, ordinary man, in common
garments dressed;
The one ambition that he had was
just to keep his brood
Supplied with shoes and clothing
warm, and filled with wholesome
food.
He never made bit for fame, nor
seemed to want to roam,
The only crowd he ever led was just
the few at home.
He never whimpered at his lot, when
extra burdens came;
He never told his WEAKNESS or spoke
of being lame
But trudged along from day to day
and did the best he could
And seemed content if those at home
his efforts understood.
A simple, ordinary man, who faced
each day of strife
That he might give to those he loved
some happiness in life.
He kept the middle of of the road, anG
did his level best,
He turned his back upon the east and
bravely faced the west,
And all he ever earned or owned tc
those he loved, he gave,
And to their joys and their desires
he made himself slave;
This simple, ordinary man, content il
life to do
The common tasks became at last 8
hero to the few.
