The civilized man has built coach

is supported on crutches, but lacks so
much support of muscles He has a
fine Geneva watch, but he fails of the
skill to tell the hours by the sun. A
Greenwich nautical almanac he has,
and so being sure Of the information
when he wants it, the man in the
street does not know star in the sky.
The solstics he does not observe: the
equinox he knows as little; and the
whole bright calendar of the year is
without dial in his mind. Fits note
books impair his memory; his Libraries
overload his wit; the e-office
increases the number of accidents;
and it may be question whether ma
chinery does not cucumber; whether
we have not lost by refinement some
energy, by a Christianity intrenched
in establishments and FORMS. some
vigor of Wild virtue. For every Stole

Say, when the bonds mature, wheat is
worth a dollar bushel and the Gov
crnment taxes Farmer Smith enough
to pay off one bond. Farmer Smith
must sell thousand bushels of wheat
twice as much as the Government
received-to pay the bond
But suppose Farmer Smith in 1918
sold five hundred bushels of wheat and
bought a Liberty Bond. When the bond
natures the Government pays him a
thousand dollars, with which he can
buy twice as much wheat as he sold

Prices, you know, have little more
than doubled since July, 1914. In gen.
eral way, then, when the Government
issues thousand-dollar Liberty Bond
it gets about half the goods 1t would
have got for the same bond four years
ago. 1t does not matter whether you
say this rise In prices is primarily due
to wars immense demand for goods
or to initiation of currency and credit.
Whatever the cause was it will GER
tainly not operate with past intensity
in the future. Wars demands for goods
will cease. Initiation will be checked.
Presently prices will fall,
