The efforts of business and the government to control prices will prove completely ineffectual if this trend continues. In some lines, of which retail nierehamlising is perhaps the most outstanding, prices have beer, held down for the reason that business has taken smaller profits. That cannot go on indefinite ly, in the fact of the wage trend. If we are to have an upward wage spiral, we must have, an upward price spiral with it. If we are to place a workable ceil ing over prices, on th«- other hand, we must also place a (•«•¡ling over wages. There are no alternatives.

A well established journal in 18.98 requested a number of its largest advertisers to give their opinions concerning the best time to stop advertising, and the following replies were receiv ed. The best time to quit adevrtising is—“ When the population ceases to multiply, and the generations that crowd on after you and never heard of you, stop coming on. ‘ When you have convinced everybody whose life will touch yours that you have better goods and lower prices than they can get anywhere else. “ When you perceive it to be the rub- that men who never ailvertise arc outstripping their neighbors in the same line of business. When you can forget the words of the shrewdest and most successful men concerning the main cause of their prosperity. “ When every man has become so thoroughly a creature of habit that he will certainly buy this year where he bought last year. *'W hen younger and fresher houses in your line cease start ing up and using newspapers in telling the people how much better they can do for them than you can. “ When you would rather have your own way and fail than tgke advice and win.” /mr t i 1111 Has This to Say: A customer guv«- us n shock, the other «lay.

There is a very sound reason for that. The reason is wages. It should be obvious to anyone that prices and wages still fol- • low the same course.
