Tour friends can buy any thing you can give them except your photograph. Notwithstanding the soaring costs of all commodities during the past three years, prices of photographs have not risen. The necessity ot a readjustment of values, however, is self evident. Beginning November first, prices mast be raided from twenty to thirty-five per cent. Compared with the difference that exists in the prices of practically all staple articles, this Increase is small Indeed, and will remain per manent only to the extent that other values are stationary.
