Sportsman Given Authority for Re-
markabIe Story That Appears in
London Periodical.

The London ZOO" fishing cat which
so steddfastly refuses to show Itself
except at meal times-has rival in
the fishing dog, says London Answers.
A sportsman was on the west coast
of Madagascar, when he observed a
dog come out of the thick bush in
front of him and trot briskly down to
the edge of the sea. When it had got
a little way into the water it stopped
and remained perfectly still, ais a
heron might when fishing at home. Its
glance was never once taken off the
water.
Suddenly it thrust it's head into an
oncoming wave, and reappeared with a
large fish in its mouth. Quickly taxi
ing its capture ashore it .squatted
down and made a hearty meal. After
while the fishing operation was re-
peated, and it was evident to the witt
ness of the incident that the dog made
regular practice of it.

PRESENT PRICES
WAY ABOVE 1914
Industrial Conference Board Re-
port Shows Rise and
Fall of Arc.
RENT SHOWS BIG INCREASE
Cost of Shelter, Fuel and Light High
er Than LIST Year, While Food
and Clothing Costs Show
Sharp Decline.

New York, May PA report made
public here by the national industrial
conference board shows that the total
cost of living has fallen 17.5 per cent
since July, 1920, but in March, 1921,
was 6S.7 per cent higher than in July,
1914. Costs of food and clothing are
shown to have decreased, and rent and
cost Of fuel and light to have in
creased since last year.
This analysis of changes in the cost
of living in the United States is based
upon material gathered from a large
number of representative retail deal
ers, from persons representing inter-
ests in many sections of the country
in connection with rents and car fares.
The total increase in the cost of
living since the beginning Of the war,
the investigation shows, was 6S.7 per
cent in March. The rise in the cost
of the major items of the budget Of
wage-earners between July, 1914, and
March, 1921, is estimated to have
been as follows:
Food ................... SO per cent
Shelter per cent
Clothing ................74 per cent
Fuel and light. ..........87 per cent
Sundries ...............,. 80 per cent
The report shows that the peak was
reached in July, 1920. Since then the
total cost of living has decreased 17.5
per cent.
Food has decreased 20 per cent,
clothing, 35 per cent, while shelter has
increased s per cent and fuel and
light 10 per cent, no change having
taken place in the cost of sundries.
Since the beginning of November
last the total. cost of living has de-
creased 1875 per cent, food showing q
10 per cent decrease, clothing %
per cent decrease, fuel and light a
6.5 per cent decrease, and sundries a
A per cent decrease. The only item
which has shown a tendency to in
crease is rent, the average having gone
up 3 per cent since November.
