Saving the Family Purse

An examination of newspapers one
hundred years old shows that city
people were then, as now, complaining
about the high cost of food. Acentury
hence prices will be much higher than
they are today, and the complaints will
be heard just the same. This Is inev-
liable in a land where the increase in
population is five times as great as the
yearly increase in the volume Of food
produced. Ii food output were increas-
ing five times as rapidly as the number
of mouths to be fed, then the price
would decline. That condition is not
likely to happen in the United States
within the lifetime of any who are
living now. Lamb chops sosr to the
clouds, and why? Because the num-
Der Of sheep in America grows smaller
instead of larger, while population in
creases, and also because just at present
the price of wool is SO high that there
is an added incentive to let the lambs
live for their fleece. When towns were
small and the farmers drove with their
own produce through the streets, vege-
tables, butter, eggs and meats kept at
a fairly low figure. Now milk comes
two hundred miles to Philadelphia.
We get mutton from Australia, apples
from Oregon and butter from the mid
die West.
Pennsylvania does not grow more
than half enough wheat to make the
bread which Pennsylvanians eat. To
the farmers cost of production must be
added to almost every commodity a
railroad freight rate and a very expen-
sive local delivery system. Thus the
city consumer has a hard battle to
fight when he wages war against such
inevitable conditions. But the Ameri-
can consumer has one remedy within
his own home. He can be more fru-
gal. Ours is the most wasteful and
criminally extravagant race that lives
upon the earth. 1t is very likely that
II individuals spent half the zeal in
combating waste al home thai they
display in fighting a food situation
that must grow worse instead of better
the net gain would soon lessen the
strain on the family purse.-Newark

The Pennsy's Restaurant Cars

On April 1st, the Pennsylvania Rail-
road will discontinue the use of the
name "Dining Carr, After that date,
all cars now known as "Dining Cars''
will be known as "Restaurant Cars"
The term "Dining Car" is a misno-
mer, as the word s'dining'' properly
applies to a place to eat dinner. AS
breakfast and luncheon, as we'll as
dinner. are served in the so called
"dining car" it is actually a "restau-
rant" car, aud the Pennsylvania Rail-
road has decided to take the initiative
in abolishing the misnomer and in
giving the car its proper title.
This change marks the passing of a
name that has been associated with
first-class railroad travel for nearly
thirty-four years. The first "dining
carr was used on the Pennsylvania
Railroads "New York and Chicago
Limited" in September, 1882. Pre-.
vious to that date, through trains had
been equipped with "hotel cars'' which
were sleeping cars with a kitchen or
buffet In one end. "Hotel cars" were
first used In November, 1878.

A ..Safety First" Decision

A brakeman on the Great Northern
Railroad failed to flag an oncoming
train and was killed In the rear-end
collision that ensued. In reversing a
damage award to the dead mans estate
the Supreme Court of the United States
has emphasized the fact that the safety
of those travelling on the train was the
first consideration. Said the court:
His fate gives pause to blame, but
we cannot help pointing out that
the tragedy of the collision might
have been appalling. n 4 x To
excuse his neglect In any way would
cast immeasurable liability upon
the railroads.
The decision urged that all who are
concerned with railroad operation
ashould have a full and anxious sense
of responsibility"
By the decision 1t clearly shows that,
because public safety is the prime con-
Germ in railroad operation, there is little
expectation that in this field of employ
ment the old common law rule of con-
fributory negligence will be waived.
A striking distinction is thus drawn
between public utilities and manufac-
ture with respect to the principle that
ought to underlie workmen's compen-
acknowledgements News.

A.nenlans wilma Taxpaxars.

One of the most interesting cases of
voluntary taxation is the ancient
Athen1an liturgy" which means
something very different from the Tit
Urgy' Of today, the chronological mean
ing Of the word being public work. -
The liturgy was a special contribution
made to the state by a wealthy citizen
or group Of citizens. There were ordi-
nary liturgies, such as the provision
Of tina chorus for a tragedy, and ex-
tfaorGinary ones, such as the equip.
Lent Of maintenance of a warship.
The liturgy was fundamentally a tax,
and il was often evaded by all sorts Of
shifts. But in the palmy days of Ath-
ems it was considered disgrac aful for
those upon whom it was imposed to
90 more than the law exacted, and
sometimes rich citizens would yolun-
teer liturgy from public spirit or to
win popularity.

Why Reu-Heads Are Seldom Bald.

The reason why red.haired people
are less subject to badness than 9th.
ers is said to be this: Their hair is
relatively thick, one red hair being
almost as thick of five fair or three
brown hairs. The consequence Ia that
with 10000 red hairs the scalp is well
matched; whereas with the same num-
Der of fair hairs one is comparatively
bald.
