hears ominous threats that unless
something is done" there will be an
internal ruction. sometimes called a.
revolution, but the quiet observer does
not fail to notice that the very people
who are doing the most talking about
such an aupheaval are spending the
most money needlessly and making no
effort to retrench on the simplest econ
omies. That does not forecast any So
cial upheaval Them this very fact,
the utter disregard of so many folks
today for the constant outlay of small
expenditures, is to many who profess
to study the subject, the underlying
cause of much OF the rising prices.
How often do you hear any strenuous
objection to paying fancy prices for
pleasures, for enjoyable lllxuries, or
for that matter, for hundred and ona
different things that one really does
not need to have. But take question
of food, clothes, rents, any of the es.
sentials, and the slightest rise draws
forth many ear splitting invectives. in
some instances curious people have
been known to sum up and find that
they spend carelessly each week more
than the sum total of raises in the
prices Of essentials in several months

time lying quietly by my mother. We
finally noticed that the road was get

green bushes and lie In the shade of
the rocks, but heard the men say
this was the little town of Atchee and
he wanted us to hurry and get to the
stockyards, because we were to De
