Taxing Bachelors-2.


Men look upon him as one who has
been craftier than they are, and toe
lcowardly to face the consequences they
are enduring. Women regard him as
ORG who has cheated some sister wo-
man out of her due. and they are filled
with rage when they behold him
squandering on his own pleasures the
dollars that a wife should be employ
ing in the purchase of glad raiment
And both men AND womeuere deter
mined that the unmarried man shall
not remain unmarried. Nobody raises
a finger to try to get~the old maid a
husband, tho heaven knows she needs
laH the assistance she can get, and to
be press-agented, and pushed, and
have her stock doomed far more than
any man does; but the minute bache-
lor appears on the Scene, everybody
turns into a matrimonial agency on his
behalf.
Men try to lure him into matrimony
by pointing out it's advantages, and
putting the soft pedal on the draw
backs. They boast of what kind of
cooks their. wives are, and brag of
their kids. and say never a word of
how eloquent even a good wife can
become when man gets home a
couple of hours too late,or of how
many weary miles they have walked
with a colicky baby on a cold win
ter's night.

WHY BUSINESS IS Dull.

Three factors, high wages, high coal
prices and high freight rates are held
to be mainly responsible by the Amer
lean Exchange National bank for de-
lays in the reimbursement process dur
ing February. Other factors were
active and contributors to the general
results. it says. but the removal of
the three named would open the way
for permanent progress apd dispense
the doubts which still infest the bust
ness mind.
The irregularity of the price decline

or cost of living. markets continued,
altho some of the retail markets have
evidently~receded as far as is prac-
ticable in advarIe of reduction in
wage scales and other items of cost.
Steel prices showed further reduc-
lions, petroleum and crude oil prices
declined for the first time. and cotton.
which had already declined further,
IT is pointed out, than. any other raw
material. went lower. touching the
1914 level. Corn also reached the
pre-war levels. and hides, hogs and
other farm products appropriated
them. These reductions have stripped
producers OF their buying power in the
retail markets, where prices continue
at from so 10 ITO per cent above the
pre-war level. Reductions in wage
rates have been small. running from
10 to so per cent. but the reduction
in wages paid has been considerable
as the steady increase in unemploy-
ment shows.
In part the resistance to the re-
adjustment of prices to conform to the
changed conditions is held to be due
to the expectation of a sudden revival
of business and an incidental advance
in prices. Those who refuse to take
their losses know that, there is a po-
tential shortage of goods and expect
it to develop into a real shortage with
the reopening OF trade. II the Londap
