ury. It's use is strictly limited by law and at the leading hotels one gets a small thin slice at each meal, including the first breakfast which is solely this one slice. White bread has sold as high as one dollar pound.
 The Entente blockade sent up the price of all other food-stuffs beyond the reach of the poor. The rise in vegetables has been 40 per cent, butter 50 per cent, meat 40 per cent. Police regulations prevent the sale of meat three days a week. There are sugar cards as we'll as bread cards. limit ing each ones use of sugar and bread. Potatoes have almost disappeared and are more of luxury than the finest fruit.
 The animals as we'll as humans show the strain of short rations. Bony horses go about ready to drop. A cabman refuses fare, saying: When the country can give the horses no oats or hay, and very little straw, you can't expect them to work" Starved dogs and cats besiege the eating places, competing for bread with the children, who thrust their skinny arms through the windows. The people have become accustomed to it, and "shoo'' off the children as they do flies.

BLOCKADE OF GREECE
 CAUSES SUFFERING

Athens. Aug. 26.-(Correspondence of the Associated Press.) )-The work ing people in some sections are ask ing that their wages be paid in bread, not in money. This is one of the ef- fects of the war and the blockade of Greek ports, that it has made bre:ad more valuable than money, and has started the unusual system of bread-wages. While the well-to-do classes have been very prosperous in recent months, the poor have suffered greatly by the blockade of all food stuffs, principally bread. Famished children and women crowd around the doors of restaurants, seeking bread rather than money. When money is offered a beggar he hardly has use for it, as it will not buy the bread he needs. And as money wages did not buy bread, so the working people resorted to this expedient of asking bread wages.
 The usual supply of wheat and flour comes to Greece and the Balkan countries from Bulgaria, Russia and America. But the Russian supply is now cut off by the barrier of the central powers; Bulgaria is consid- cred an enemy; and the American "rpplv is cut off by submarines. Bread has therefore, become the great lux

 King Christian X. whose 47th birth day anniversary will be celebrated by the people of Denmark today, is a thoroughly up-to-date monarch, with the personal qualities of courage, good nature and simplicity that can not fail to win popularity In his youth he served in the Danish Life guard-tho royal regiment-as pri- vate. When he fell in love, it was with a princess he chose himself, the Grand Duchess Alexandrine of Sch werin, sister of the crown princess of Germany. In 1912 Christian came to the throne in succession to his fath CT, the late King Frederick VIII. The close relationship between the rulers of Europe makes the situation of to- day peculiarly trying. The ties of blood are strong, but Christian X. has done his best to keep Denmark in a path of strict neutrality.

CURBING WAR PROFITS.

"War profiteering" has sinister sound-and the government evidently thinks it is as bad as it sounds.
 First came the coal operators and lost in their attemp. to hold up the government. The secretary of the navy used his war club to hammer down their price to $2.95, and a big howl went up as the coal barons saw less profit in government contracts at this price.
 E Whereupon President Wilson reduc- ed the price to g.
 Then the steel trust offered to sell S10,0OO tons to the government at $5S ton. tho the market price for "bars and shapes" was from $S0 to $S5, The steel offer came after threats nafl been made by the government, and since then the steel and copper rlag- mates have been notified tha. their products will be communicated and paid for at "cost plus a reasonable profit The federal trade commis- sion is now working out the price to be paid.
 The purchase of fuel oil likewise has been regulated with the strong
 arm of the government. The oil in jterests wanted $1.50 barrel at San Francisco; but this price has '. sr
 scaled down to $l08, and is st,ll go
 ing down under the cost and rei,
 sonable profit' basis.
 To transport oil some moro coHl' mandeering had to be done. aIi tank ships were requisitioned at sl.., per tons instead of $2.5O asked.
 And this is just a beginr.n:,: Ii the war lasts long-as seems prota bia-tfe nation will see things i, never dreamed before. The wind-ul may be that war profits will be nc more than peace profits.
