THE HIGH PRICE MOVEMENT.
For the past five years high prices
have been the order of he day
throughout the northwest, especially.
Prices for wheat, wool, wood, flour,
coal, clothing, provisions of all kinds,
and in fact, everything bought or sold,
have soared.
Wages and rents have reached the
zenith. Never before In the north
west have such high wages been paid
In all lines of industry as during the
past three years. Never have such
iigh rents been paid. Never have land
prices soared so high. Never has it
cost so much to live. Never have the
expenses of operating industrial enter
prises been so high.
The movement of prices have been
constantly upward and In many lines
an unreasonable limit has been reach
ed. Wages took- the first slump last
fall when the financial panic came on.
Wool has taken a tumble, although
nobody is able to tell why. Fuel prices
will never be as high again.
Lumber has been so high that It
has stopped all building and so lum
ber prices are coming down to a sane
If vtl. Rents have been beyond all
reason. Industries cannot afford to
pay such rents as have prevailed,
There is not enough profit in an ordi
nary business to justify such rents
ard so everything points to a return
to a medium, bona fide, logical busi
ness basis.
The water is being squeezed out of
the hysterical high prices, as It were
and the cost of living will be reduced
while every industry will still be re
warded with a fair Income from the
capital Invested.
As long as the extremely high prices
of everything prevail business Is un
settled. People feel uneasy as to fi
nancial conditions and there Is a
panicky air everywhere, although sur
face prosperity may prevail.
It is much better for the country to
have moderate prices, based upon the
actual worth of products and com
modities. People feel secure and bus
iness settled down to a substantial
basis where It is sure to remain
steadily.
THE BEST NEWSPAPER.
The Philistine is of the opinion that
the best newspaper to the world Is the
Philadelphia North American, because
U Is edited by men of purpose and In
dividuality, and through Its warp and
woof runs a silken thread of good will
to humanity.
As one scans the average newspaper
the expression of good will to human
ity Is conspicuous chiefly for Its ab
sence. Shakespeare said something
about the evil that men do living
after them and the good being Inter
red with their bones.
The average newspaper does much
to make the evil that men do stand
out prominently and live as long as
possible, says the Philistine. .
If a charge Is brought against a
man, though he be ever so Innocent,
his name Is dragged before the public
and the details of the supposed wrong
magnifle dto the fullest extent. Some
time a man Is ao lacking In the In
stincts of a gentleman that the only
way to deal with him Is to roast him
to a turn and then turn him over and
roast him on the other side.
But to connect a man with a crime
(he may never have committed; and
! .... .I-,-- i .
publish Ine details 01 wiCKeunew ui
which ho may never have been guilty
appeals only to the bad side' of bad
people and to the worst aide of good
people. Because a corrupt taste de
sires scandal is no reason why It
should tie pandered to.
The one redeeming virtue of the
bad newspaper, says the Philistine,
lies in the fact that what It prints,
mostly, Isn't so.
THK MONKY IX KINDNESS.
Until humankind has attained con
siderably nearer to the goal of perfec
tion than at present the fact that a re
form has a utilitarian side will not be
considered a handicap to Its success,
says the Chicago Post. The remarks
of President William DeLosse Love of
the Connecticut Humane society at a
recent annual meeting of that organi
zation are, therefore, worthy of notice,
He says:
"The difference In value of animals
in Connecticut under humane or In
humane treatment Is enormous. It
has been estimated that the produc
tive value of a horse Is extended five
years by' proper use, food and care.
If his net earning powej is only 25
cents a day, and he works six days a
week, he earns "$"S a year, and In
five years $390."
There being some 50,000 horses In
Connecticut, Mr. Love estimated that i
humane treatment would Increase
their value by nearly twenty million
dollars. Then he did a little figuring
on the 123,440 cows In the state, with
this result:
"These cows average six and one
fourth quarts of milk a day. If, as
claimed, a cow's productive life Is ex
tended two years by proper treatment,
the value of this milk at 7 cents a
quart would amount to $313.50 for
each animal, and the aggregate for the
cdws in the state would be more than
$40,000,000."
There are, of course, more admira
ble arguments for kindness to animals
that the profit that lies In humane
treatment, but since It takes all kinds
of people to make a world, these fig
ures undoubtedly will appeal to some.
A MAX WITH A DRUM.

with the booming of the drum, it had nf..
a martial and inspiring air to it to
night. It wasn't classical, but it was
stirring.
Suddenly the lone marcher wheeled
and took a station in front of a crowd
and began preaching. Every step was
made with the precision of a regi
ment. He marched as vigorously, as
dignified, as precise as though he were
leading a thousand soldiers. It was
really an inspiring performance, to
say nothing of your belief or disbe-
lief, your faith or infidelity, your
Christianity or paganism.
It requires a superb heroism to be
brave when alone and in the presence
of only scoffs and sneers. It requires
courage to stand up for principle In
the face of a Jeering world. It re
quires almost a divine bravery to face
ridicule, scorn, derision!
It Is easy to show courage in the
thick of the fight, with the huzzas of
the boys ringing In your ears! But It
takes a soldier to stand up erect and
be shot at when alone and unseen by
your comrades or the world.
No woman who uses ''Mother's Friend" need fear the suffering

This lone man with a drum march
ing In the face of a heedless, you
might say, hostile world, Is a symbol
of the splendid courage of the un
known and unsung reformers of the
wprld, who carry forward their ban
Pers proclaiming principles which the
same heedless world adopts and en
Joys after the pioneer who proclaimed
it is forgotten.
It requires courage to stand up
alone for principle. It requires man
hood to espouse an unpopular cause.
Few men will get Into the middle of
the street and proclaim their prlncl
pies. Most of us choose to follow the
crowd, say what the crowd says, do
as the crowd does. There are very,
very few men who will beat a drum
alone, in a -cause which does not bear
the approval of the multitude.
And so the lone Salvation Army
captain stands as the symbol of a
splendid manhood, a superb citizen
ship, a fearless and defiant principle
which looks straight forward to a
goal, and which Is unawed by the Jeers
of a cowardly world.
Three cheers for the lone man with
the drum!
GOOD IX ALL.
I do not know, 1 cannot say,
What life will hold for me today;
But this I know, whate'er befall.
Some good lies wrapped within It all.
Though undlscerned by mortal mind,
jThis treasure Is for me to find;
To rend the veil that clouds mine eyes
And view the blessing In disguise.
For toilsome ways will lead to rest,
And Irksome tasks are often best;
In struggle, power and will are born
Who plucks the rose must grasp a
thorn.
The cross I lift In morning hours,
At evening may be hid In flowers;
The trial that before me lies
May prove a gate to paradise.
As oaks grow sturdy In the blast,
So courage, buffeted, nolds-fast;
As blossoms, crushed, breathe per
fume rare.
Affliction drives the soul to prayer.
All things shall work
for highest
good
To those who put their trust in God;
All things in heaven and earth are
mine
If I but claim my right divine.
And so. It Is my happlnes
To know in all things dwells success;
; us mystery is mine to prove.

KEPT 0PEH BY BAD BLOOD
Whenever a sore refuses to
the place existed simply because the flesh was diseased at that particular
spot, it would be an easy matter to apply, some remedy directly to the
ulcer that would kill the germ; or the diseased flesh might be removed
by a surgical operation and a cure effected. But the very fact that
old sores resist every form of local or external treatment, and even
return after being cut away, shows that back of them is a morbid cause
which must be removed before a cure can result.
The impurities in the blood which keep old sores open, come from
different causes. A long spell of debilitating sickness, which breeds
disease germs in the system, is a common source. These morbid
impurities get into the circulation, and the blood becomes a polluted,
mfectious fluid, which, instead of
nourishing the fibres and tissues of
the flesh, irritates and ulcerates
them, and continually discharges
its impurities into the open sore,
and prevents the place from heal
ing. Another cause for bad blood
is the retention in the system of
the refuse and waste matters of
the body. . Those members whose
duty it is to carry off' the useless
accumulations, become dull and
sluggish in their action. and leave

his fermenting matter is absorbed
