A business man of Lancaster re-
marked yesterday that most people
nowadays are having more prac-

of living in the purchase of small
items than they are with the higher

is that when man has been accus-
toned to buying matches, soap and
similar articles all his life at one
price, he hates to have to increase his
expenditures. Soap formerly selling
on the Lancaster market for $5.14
per case now brings S6.67 and while
matches formerly sold at 45 cents
per dozen boxes, they now bring 60
cents per dozen.
