ment to envy and unrest among the
poor. The latter. however show that
their objections to this kind of dis
play are not truly philosophical, by iIni-
tating it themselves as soon as they
get little more money. 1t is in fact
topsy-turvy world in which We live.
The only prospect of lettering it, SO

to cover a constantly expanding living
cost with a singularly inelastic income.
Some of US may be blowing in our

living is becoming palmer all the time.
