to what the year of 1858 has in
store for us.
Unemployment and the relief

industrialists are attempting to
ease the shock by telling us to
expect a mild recession which
will a.bate by this summer. With

long for our larders to be emptl-
ed, our utility bills to mount up
and the banks-if you are buy
ing-or the landlords, if you
are renting, to look at you with
a scowl1 on their faces. All OF
this adds to discomfort in nor
