Costs Remain Same.
+ ''''rhe absolute amount Of money neces-
-sary to conduct business in 1917 and
1918 was greater than In 1914. but the
relative cost Of doing business prac-
ticaliy did net change. The percentage
Of total sales Of dealers that was ex-
pended for the conduct of business was
approximately the same In 1917 and 1918
as it was In 1914. The volume of BUSH
ness OF more than 50 wholesalers in
creased So per cent in four years, while
their actual expenses In dollars and
cents increased only "a per cent.
The actual expense OF So retailers
handling n general line Of good shoes
was rs per cont Of their sales in 1914.
and the expense Of 81 dealers in 1917
was tho same. Stores handling popular
priced shoes had u lower rate OF sx-
pensa as compared with sales than the
general. class OF dealers. 1t Is to be
noted also, these popular price stores
had n lower rate Of expense In 1918
than they had In year, prior to that
time.
Taking into consideration all the cir
cumstances. the high prices of shoes in
1917 and 1913 cannot be justified.
Leather manufacturers. shoe manufac-
turoTs. and retail shoe merchants all
made unprecedented profts.
1T should be noted in this connec-
ton that prices were bound to advance
considerably between 1914 and 1917,
even though no large profits were OBJ
tained. There was an increase in the
cost sof' hides and all other materials
used in the manufacture of leather. The
shoe manufacturer had to pay much
higher prices for leather and other ma
terials and also more for labor as the
war progressed. While tho shoe mer-
chant did not take larger percentage
Of profit on the cost OF shoes. tho APP
plication Of the same percentage during
the war N was used prior thereto gave
him . much larger absolute profit per
pair OF shoes.
THE best standard for judging
whether tho prices of a commodity are
reasonable Is the percentage of the
profit on the investment employed In
it's production and sale. Measured BY.

DOCTORS SAY
The new CALONEL
is BEST MEDICINE
New Variety, Called Gallo
tabs, Is Purified and Re-
fined From Nauseating
and Salivating Effects
Medical Virtues Retained
and Improved

According to the worlds greatest
physicians and medical authorities,
calomel was the best and most uni
versally useful Of all medicines. Medi-
cal authorities prescribed calomel for
almost every disease and explained
that it was the best and surest of all
system purifiers. They say that Gallo
mel cleanses the liver, stomach, bow
els and kidneys and purifies the blood
from all poisons, making the system
pure and clean so that nature can
quickly restore the health.
Now that science has purified calo-
mel of all its nauseatfng and danger
Gus qualities, the new kind Of calomel,
called "Calotabs," is even more popu-
lar than the old. AS liver cleanser
and system purifier Calotabs are more
effective than the old style calomcl,
yet are entirely delightful in effect.
One Calotab at bedtime, with swal-
low Of water-that's all. No nausea,
no salts, nor the slightest unpleasant
ness. Next morning you awake feel
ing fine, with hearty appetite for
breakfast. Eat what you please and
go where you please-there is no re-
strction of habit or diet or danger
of salvation.
Calotabs are sold only in original,
sealed packages, price thirty-tive
cents. Your druggist recommends
and guarantees Calotabs, and will re-
fund your money if you are not de-
lighted with them.-(adv.)

crop remaining on farms.
The death rate among live stock for
the past twelve months is shown to be
lower than usual, due largely to the
mild winter and ability Of the extern
sion department, through quarantine
regulations and the use of serums, to
prevent the spreading of epidcmics.
1t is estimated that 35 mules and
horses Of all ages, 26 cattle, % sheep

died from disease during the year
