high-price level which will be found stubborn
reality. Business men are going to find out that
the clever man is not the man who waits, but the
one who finds out the new price facts and acts
accordingly"
The foregoing is the closing paragraph of q
most important article published in this weeks
Tissue by DR.. Irving Fisher, professor of political
economy in Yale University.
DR.. Fisher is one Of the foremost authorities
in America on business economics. In the ar
ticle published today he broadly discusses the
higher range of prices and wages now prevail.
ing, and clearly points out the fact that the world
is on a permanently higher level of prices, and
that the wise business man will recognize this
fact and act accordingly.
The views expressed by DR.. Fisher are in ex-
act harmony with the position of the Manufac-
turers Record. Here and there we may have
some temporary fluctuation in wages and in
prices, but the higher range Of the present is
based on economic facts which cannot be gain
said.
It is vitality important that men everywhere
should completely change their mentality in re-
gard to wages and prices, and recognize that we
must plan for all business activities in the light
of the facts clearly set forth by Dr. Fisher and
so succinctly stated in the closing paragraph of
his article
In many cases bankers have discouraged con-
struction work now on the ground that business
men should wait for lower prices. DR.. Fisher,
who is far better informed as to world prices and
influences than most bankers, is dramatically
opposed to their views.

Treat Yourself

Better than any spring tonic is the fresh air
Of spring. Get out into the open where Nature
is asserting itself after months of rest. Over
worked constitutions and jaded nerves will find
the balm of Gilead in natures offering.

says the editor of the Toledo Blade.

ant to you than anything you may gain by keep
ing your nose to the grindstone. You can afford
few minutes and then for some healthful
recreation better than you can afford weeks in
bed or months in hospitals or years Of sickness.
Get out into the open! Steal away from the
indoors for few minutes at least. Get out in
the sun where the air is clean and fresh Fill
your lungs with the freest thing in the world
fresh air. Give yourself treat!
go out with your boy or the boy of another
when you get home tonight and play ball. Don't
be afraid of how you'll feel tomorrow. What if
you are little stiff? Isn't that sign you need
exercise?
"Soon now the parks will be rich with color.
Go out and watch nature. Get close to the worth
while things. Know something about realities.
It's worth all the time you devote to it-health
You'll feel better and that's reward enough"

DR.. 1thmar Warner came to Wayne
county in 1915. and moved to Rich

graduate of any medical college, he
had large practice. was universally
respected, and when he died in 1885,
everyone in the county mourned. He
came from New England, and never
married. He gave the city what was
known as the Warner building, which
has been used for many purposes for
many years after his death.
DR.. Thomas Carroll, who practiced
in Cincinnati for many years, lived
in Richmond from 1919 to 1923, and
DR.. William Pugh stayed a short time
and then moved to Centerville, where
he died in 1924.
DIR. James Mendenhall, who Is re-

came to the city in 1922, retired from

The Cost of Illness

Workers in Ohio lost $4,25O,OOO in wages due
to illness in 1913, according to report of the
Ohio health insurance and old age pensions COM
mission. In addition the wage earners spent
about $44,OOO,OOO for medical care.
Illness is the cause of "35 to so per cent of
the poverty which asks relief" says the COM
missions report. Investigation of dependency
in Ohio cities showed that in Cleveland 81 per
cent is due to illness; Columbus, rs per cent
Newark, Sc per cent Springfield, 80 per cent, and
Toledo, 80 per cent.
Ohio is representative industrial state and
the findings may be accepted as conclusive for
the other commonwealth east of the Mississippi
river. No figures are available for Indiana, but
one may hazard the statement that conditions are
about the same as those found in Ohio.
Illness is source of almost incomprehensible
loss to the individual and to the community. A
workers absence, owing to illness, usually entails
not only loss to him in wages and an expendi-
ture for medical assistance, but also subtracts
from the producing capability of the, plant in
which he is employed, which in turn affects the
whole industrial and social structure.
Good health is intimately related to the
wealth of nation. Workers and employers are
beginning to realize more clearly that it is of
mutual benefit to keep plants sanitary and the
working force physically fit. worker with
diminished vitality is no longer looked upon as an
object deserving pity, but as case demanding
the attention of physician In many factories
and business houses, the see that relief is
quickly given, in order that the employee may
lose only hours instead of days of valuable work
ing time. Considerable progress has been made
in fighting the social evil of illness, but the loss
in wages of more than 100000 annually in one
state alone proves that the problem is far from
solved. 1t challenges the serious thought of the
industrial world.

Easter Lilies Scarce;
Yes, Because Of War

Easier lilies will be scarce this wear,
according to local dealers There is
scarcity all over the United States
and only forty per cent of the usual
consumption will be available.
The reason for this scarcity is that
under government embargo on for
eign trade the lily bulbs were not
shipped into the country from Japan
and most of last years bulbs were
left-overs.
Another reason is that coal was SO
scarce that many of the greenhouses
cut down their production of lilies
and planted flowers that did not neei
so much heat.
Prices will, of course, be advanced
slightly because of this shortage. The
usual number of lilies consumed at
Easter time in the United States is
estimated at about 100000

prices and wages. It's editor says:
Business men should face the facts. To
talk reverently of 1913-1914 prices is to speak a

Mining More Deadly Than
War, English Report Shows
(By Associated Press)

LONDON, April Thinning is more
deadly than war, declared John Rob-
ertson at the governments inquiry
into the coal industry of Great Britain.
Robertson is chairman of the Scottish
Union of Mine Workers.
THE extent of the danger to the
miner is not realized even in the min
ing DISTRICTS he said. There are
100000 persons employed in and
about British coal mines. In the ten
years from 1907 to 1916 there was a
total of 12,400 men killed, or an aver
age each year Of 1,240. In the last
twenty years the yearly average of
accidents was about 10000, or a total
of about 3,250,000. The miner is al
ways on active service; he is always
in the trenches"

the early railway days, when smoking
on the company's premises was for

Western was transgressing the bylaw
at station in Wiltshire, and contin-
ued to do SO in spite of a warning
from the stationmaster. Thereupon
the latter pulled the cigar out of his
mouth and threw it away. A few
minutes after the Duke of Beaufort's
carriage arrived and the stranger en-
tered and drove off to Badminton. 1t
was Lord Palmerton.
