An official report upon the rise Of
prices in the various countries since
the outbreak of the war. issued in
London, shows that in England it has
been So per cent in the cost of food

cost Of living to a very large degree,
have not risen In Berlin the rise has
been about l5S per cent, in Austria
l78 per cent, in the Scandinavian
states about 81 per cent. in Australia

per cent, while in Canada the rise has
been only 1S per cent The very great
rise In Germany and Austria is attrib-
uted to flooding the country with a
vast amount of paper money. There
was no report on the rise in prices in
the United States. remarks Omaha
World-Herald, but the ordinary wage
worker is inclined to insist that 1t Is
about 800 per cent.

DOING, NOT TALKING.

That we can prove our faith by our
works is no new thought, but at this
season Of the year when, having turned
fresh page in our lives we point with
pride to the many things we intend TO
do during this year that is just begin
nlng ii is well to keep in mind the
fact that we can accomplish far more
by doing than by saying, says Charles
ton News and Courier. So many Of
us for one reason and another pro-
crastinate entering upon the actual ac-
cOmplishment of whatever tasks we
assume. but this prOcraStinatiOn does
not prevent us from nOising abroad
the news of what we mean to do. We
are quite likely on occasion TO tell any
body we may chance to meet the plans
we nave made for the future; we talk
about what we are going to do with
as much confidence and even with as
much pride as though we already had
achieved successful results. And then.
because life is so uncertain and be-
cause we do not make allowance for
our plans going .astray. we awaken
suddenly to the fact that we have only
been talking and not doing. and that
because we missed the golden moment
when 1t, was in our minds we have
made our faith but idle words.
II we mean to do something real and
earnest in life. something that we hope
will prove our worth and our ability,
we shall stand far better chance Of
out advertising the fact far and wide.

man should not be admitted to bail.
In other words, there being no of
fenses punishable by death, there can
be no offenses for which bail can be
refused.
The decision submits that the
question of giving bail is a matter
of discretion on the part of the
court but it goes a little farther
and states the constitutional
amendment relating to the abolish
ment of the death penalty has ma
terially modified the old law.

The great American peanut is broad
ening its empire. The crop grows even
faster than the peanut-eaters multiply.
The demand which bulges at county
fairs and baseball games and jOgs
along steadily in every town and ham
let all the year through is not equal to
the increased supply. But the pea
nut does not suffer. The oil industry
balances the score. says Cleveland
Leader. The nuts the millions of pea
nut-eaters don't eat can be swallowed
easily by the mills which make pea
nut oil and peanut meal. The oil is
a welcome and very good addition to
the food supply of the country. The
meal gets the same end less direct
ly. Cattle and swine eat it and then
they are eaten in turn. This year Texas
alone expects to make about 10000 bar
rels of peanut oil. There will be 40.-
900 tons of peanut meal as side prod
uct. These figures will doubtless be
far surpassed before long. Ultimately
great deal of soap may be made in
the United States. as it is in France
and other countries of Europe with
peanut oil as one of its ingredients.
So the peanut is not only holding It's
own, but widening its field of useful
ness. 1t is one of the products Of
American agriculture which are as
promising as they are popular.
