Hand of Armonk, N. 7., "but, when all
other remedies failed, we saved her
life with Dr. King's New Discovery,
Our niece, who had consumption In an
advanced stage, also used this won
derful medicine and today she Is per
fectly well." Desperate throat and

HOTEL PORTLAND
The Finest Hotel in the Northwest
PORTLAND. OREGON.
Per Cent More Food in Seven
Years.
It cost the people of the United
States, on an average, $34.71 per
head for food In 1897. This year It
costs $52.58, an Increase of over 51 per
cent.
In other words, It takes $1.51 to buy
as much food now as a dollar would
buy seven years ago. A man earning
dollar a day wag better off then, as
far as that part of his living expenses
went, then one earning $1.50 a day now,
And according to Commissioner
Wright, of the department of labor,
food absorbs iver 41 per cent of the
total expenditures of the average
family.
The Increase of $17.87 per head In
the cost of this Item represents an
increase of $89.36 In the expenditure
of the ordinary family of five. Ad
ding $18.08 for the enhanced cost of
clothes, we find that a workman's
wages have to stretch $107.44 further
now on two necessary Items than
they did In 1897.
The skilled workman and the ordl
nary mechanic, however, are not 'the
ones who feel this advance in the cost
of living. It Is the clerk, the book
keeper, the middle class who feel the
"pinch of prosperity" as the days and
the weeks go by.
