that of the dictator Diaz. The Mica

has no intention of becoming one.
This covers the list of South Amer

KILLED IN AUTO ACCIDENT.
Frank Doan, Of Abbeville, Has Skull
Crushed.

Abbeville, Nov. 5.-Frank Doan,
foreman of the county changing
guard, was killed and J. L. Schroe-
der, a mechanic at the Seaboard
shops, was considerably bruised when
the automobile in which they were
riding turned over last night about
1890 o'clock, two miles from Abbe-
vile.
Schroeder was driving the car and
had just passed buggy on very
rough stretch of road, when he
caught up with another buggy which
he did not see until almost on it. In
turning out to pass the back wheels
skidded causing the car to turn a
complete somm mersault sidewise, right
ing itself again, pointing in the di-
rection from which it came. Both
men were thrown out. Doan's head
struck a rock crushing the back of his
skull from which he died, three hours
later. Another car came along about
two minutes after the accident and
rushed both men to where they were
given medical attention. Schroeder's
bruises are not serious. Doan was 40
years old. He came to Abbeville
years ago from Indiana.
where he has mother and a sister.
He had been a chaingang guard for
eight years. About a month ago he
was promoted to foreman. The fu-
neral arrangements have not been
announced.

ADVANCES AMONG GROCERS.
Have Brought General Curtailment of
Purchase.-AIso ''Trade Runs

The popular notion of the average
consumer that the grocer is to be
blamed for the advancing cost OF
food products would be modified if
the average consumer could realize
how seriously grocers are worried
nowadays by the remarkable advance
in prices, says the New York Journal
of Commerce Instead Of spelling a
bit Of good fortune for them, it is a
cause of no little apprehension, not
only among retailers but also among
jobbers.
In trade circles, this is evidenced
by unmistakable signs of caution and
uncertainty, both in buying and in
making contracts for future deliver
les. That everything the grocer sells
is on an inflated basis of price is un-
questioned and unquestionable and
no one cares to be caught with a
cents worth more than is absolutely
necessary to cover actual needs. job
bers are commonly reporting a much
higher percentage of small orders
even down to split cases-than ever
before, and while it makes lot more
work to roll up a given volume or
business on such a basis, it is recog-
nized as more or less an assurance of
stability. Jobbers are sufficiently
short of goods to make them wary
about liberal deliveries, and they are
none too willing, for credit reasons,
for any retailer to load up on goods
bought at prevailing rates.
On the face of things retailer
might feel happy in the prevalence
of high prices, but it spells danger
for him all along the line. For in
stance, it is probable that the bulk
of the grocer's stock is worth 20 to
40 per cent. more than a year. ago;
ergo, to keep a full line for the con-
venience of his patrons, he must lock
up in it that much more money.
Locked-up money costs something in
interest and, with a given margin of
profit, the percentage on total sales
shrinks deplorably. Then again, if
anything should induce a reaction
from present levels, it would find re-
tailers loaded with goods on which
there would be loss the minute re-
cession commenced. Even as it is,
many a grocer has not yet advanced
prices in keeping with his own in
creased costs and that in itself is
serious menace to his standing.
Consumers Curtail.
But grocers in various parts of the
country are finding general dispo-
sition to curtail manifested by con-

chases the order of the day, but it has

chases the order of the day, but it has
within a fortnight or so been noted
that consumers are beginning to
count cost in making selection of
grades, and even commodities, &C
cordingly: The cheaper cuts of meat
are in increased demand; the more
wholesome but less delicate and ex-
pensive staples in other lines are COM
ing into use; and there is substitu-
tion of cheap foods for expensive
ones reported. This, in turn, is more
or less welcome to the retailer be-
cause he like the jobber, prefers eau
ton to badly stretched credit on the
part of his customer. And consum-
ers on the whole are admittedly be-
ing strained materially to make good
their absolutely necessary purchases,
thereby impairing their desirability
as debtors.
Restaurants and hotels are all
manifesting the same disposition to-
ward curtailment; some of them ex-
ercising such ingenuity as to sur
prise one who delves into their
methods and in many cases without
making the diner realize that he is
the victim of economy: More and
more restaurants and hotels are max
ing extra charges for bread and but
ter and such side lines of the feast.
Smaller servings always being de-
pendable sources of economy. With
food costs increased by elements
which are not susceptible to scold-
ing or accusation of soaking the con-
sumer, it is evident that if the high
cost of living is to be met, the con-
sumer must do it for himself.
1t is said that Germany, under the
stress of embargoes and short crops,
is developing many ingenious and
cheap food products, in some cases
using ingredients which are entire
ly new, but more commonly finding
attractive ways for using those which
in time of plenty have been frowned
upon. 1t may be that when the war
is over Germany's example in this in
teresting evolution willlfind welcome
in America, especially if America is
to continue her task of feeding the
whole world.
Exit "Ten-Cent" Packages.
One thing noticeable in. the food
trades is the rapid retirement from
the grocer's shelves of the ''ten-cent
seller" This has happened not only
in staple goods, but specialties are
at such a pace as to sug-
gest first the 'two-for-a-quarter and
later the ''fifteen-cent seller With
in the past three months the ten-cent
specially has been growing material
ly less common, though some manu-
facturers have maintained the price
unit by curtailing the contents of the
package. The writer knows of one

is a formal recognition of some one
of the warning factions.
Peru and Venezuela have pro-
yisional presidents. Provisional
presidents constitute disease quite
common to South American republics
Almost every one of them have had
a provisional government at one
time or another.
In Peru the provisional executive
is another general-Gen. Oscar K.
Benuvides. In Venezuela the execu-
tive is not a general, but DR.. V. Mar
uuez Bustillos. DR.. Bustillos is rat
ed very high as an official and has
given a good administration to a
country that has not had bad ad-
ministrations in the past. He reports
that the condition of the country
with regard to commercial activities
is good and that international rela-
tions "have been maintained accord
ing to the long tradition and fine rec
ord of Venezuela.
The Dominican, republic has as its
head Juan Isidro Jiminez. President
.Jiminez submitted message recent
ly reviewing the events of his ad-
ministration and stated that due, to
the policy the government under his
direction had pursued the foreign
commerce reached the largest total

public.
The terms of the president vary
in all the countries to the south.
They seemed to have followed the
American constitution very faithfully
in every respect but the term of the

cHIRoPRACTIC DEFINED

Chicropractic is the science of adjust
ing the cause of disease by re-aligning
the twenty four movable vertrebrae Of
the spine, releasing pressure on nerves
radiating from the spine to ALL parts
Of the body, allowing nerves to carry
their full quota Of health current (ner-
We energy.)
BY correcting the cause the effect is
eliminated. A perfect spine means
health. Let the vertebrae become dis
placed, press on the nerves, cut off the
life current and there is certain to be
