WOKDS OF WISDOM PHO MY PEOPLE—•When a demand arises for* an nrt'de. and if the supply should. riot >•<- i{Utte equal) to the demand, it ere*t«'s a acarcity, consequently higher *' ces. English ideas and customs 1m ve been introduced into the Orient, MMII iKiii, has 1 caused an extra demand lur v\l kinds of food, etc., and as the producing area has not increased correspondingly, it at once reflects on the producing countries, and raises prices. Great Britain is the only free trode country n! any importance in, tlitr world. In Great Britain, only a tew days ago, a Commission was api'Mited to inquire into the reasons why the cost of living had increased, it was beem officially stated, while the <<>st of living had increased 50 per cent, during tho last 25 years, wages !u«I only increased 15 per cent, for the panie period, so it is obvious taxing the land will not reduce the cost of living, nor increase th« workers' wages', and the only remedy for Great PrrtaJD ia Protoottton.

' fhe Orient has, ... and xs erecting, .*• «ge, industries equipped with.^jiiodvrn r machinery, «<a« -aiijr* ;J>nglralfc«pea&3ng. country cope-.with this .menace" ~ protected -to save our imdustri wag© earners from being brought down to the' Asiatic level P The Single Tax theory is absolutely one tax on the Sand -and free trade. Ifc is apparent it womM not lessen the cost of production., but reduce wages to cope -with. Asiatic labour, augmented with modern machinery. There ie staH hope, as I am aredtblty in formed the success of the Single Mas policy wifll depend upon- the world adopting it; this ought to ensure safety for a time. During my varied experience I found that quack recipes were harmful to those .with" imaginary aifcmants, but they nave the option of 'becoming, well 'and remaining here if tbey wiU! follow my advice. I strongly advise my peopde, and the imaguij»ry sufferers l , to feast upon the weUknown recipes, prosperity, and longevity, etc., viz:— ' Ample Proterfoom on things we can produce, and good wages—''CHAMPION MUSCLE-RAISER FLOUR" and: "STANDARD" OATMEAL and ROLLED OATS."
