Mounting price have only increased the demand for it. , The principal cause of the greatly: accelerated demand of lute may have I been the payment of the many small '. war taxes running into odd cents; but: a still stronger influence has been the , growing spirit of thrift, revealed in the fixing of odd prieis for commodi ties and in the claiming of small1 'change by many who used to scorn' j anything less than a nirkel. Even on j the Pacific slope the penny has won ! recognition at last.
