Little Talks on the
High Cost of Living
By
W. A. REID.
Thero nro mnny way of reducing tho high cost of liv
ing without denying miiolvea tho comforts of life. Ouo
way Is to study tho markets A nhrewd buyer lays In n
supply of coal when ho seen a prospect of n rise In price:
nlso of potntooa nnd other necessities where possible to
effect n saving. In n larger way shrewd buyors tako ad
vantage of low values lu stocks, bonds and real estate.
Wo class such buys na Investments, but when wisely iimdu
they nro of vastly grontor Importance to us than studied
economy In Ilttlo things. For Instance, a small Investment
lu I'KKIIAM PARK right now will net not less than 50rc.

O. A. Stlllmnn, Prohibition enn-

tnlked Inst ovenlng to qulto a largo

Mr. Stlllmnn, of courso, ndvo
cntes prohibition, but his argu
ments nro a Ilttlo different from
mnny of tho snmo polltlcnl pnrty.
Ho Bnys when ho wna qulto young
that ho took up tho causo of pro
hibition hut wns discouraged bo
causo of his inability to nccompllsh
nny results. Ho flnnlly decided
that tho proposition was a political
ono. Mr. Stlllmnn takes tho stand
that tho liquor trnfflc is wrong
nnd thnt tho government should not
bo n pnrtnor In nnythlng thnt Is
wrong. Mr. Stlllmnn takes tho
stnnd thnt representation of tho
best peoplo Is tho way In which
theso things which his parly re
gards as bolng ovil must bo ro
movod nnd ho insists thnt tho best
peoplo must ho represented by men
who stnnd for what tho best peo
plo really wnnt. Mr. Stlllmnn
makes no porsonnl reflections upon
nny of his opponents In tho con
gressionnl race, but snys thnt tho
other parties allow themselves to
bo swnyed by tho saloon elomont
becnuso of tho votes that they may
securo
Mr. Stlllman particularly mnkes
an appeal for a cleaner representa
tion of tho best peoplo in ofilcinl of
fices. Ho nlso says thnt If ho
should ho olected ho will not do
voto his ontlro timo In congress to
talking prohibition, but thnt ho will
have at heart all of tho important
development questions, including all
thoso which affect Coos Day.
