WORDS OP WISDOM *r\Q SIX PJ©PI* iWTwm a demand arises for an «rtM©, and if the supply should not %• folia equal to the demand, it ore«tsi r -Jtroity, consequently higher —'oWu idea* and customs •aid are spreading rapidly; this, along mti th» world's increasing population, has caused an extra demand fftr. all kinds of food, efco., and as the producing area has i.ot increased on the producing countries, and raie•f jgrioes. Great Britain is the only free trade country of any importance in th© -world. In Great Britain, only a few day» ago, a Commission was appointed to inquire into the reasons why the cost of living had increased. It has been officially stated, while the oost of living had increased -50 per oent. during the last 25 years, wageß had only increased 15 per, cent, for the same period, so it is obvious taxof living, nor increase the workers wages, and the only remedy for Great Britain is Protection. The Orient has, and is erecting, huge industries equipped with modern machinery, worked, and to be with Asiatic labour. The question •uggests itself to my people— how oan any English speaking, country cope with this menace unless amply protected to save our industries and wage earners from being brought down to the Asiatic.level The Single Tax theory is absolutely one tax on the land and free trade. It is apparent it would not lessen' the cost of production ; but reduce wages to cope with Asiatic labour, augmented with mddern machinery. There iB still hope, as I am credibly informed the success of the Single Tax policy will depend upon the world adopting it; this ought to ensure Bafety for a time. . During my varied experience I found that quack recipes were harmful to those with imaginary ailments, but they have the option of becoming follow my advice. I strongly advise my people, and the imaginary sufferers, to feast upon the well-known reoipea, prosperity, and longevity, etc., viz:— Ample protection on things we can produce, and good wages—"CHAMPION MUSCLE-RAISER FLOUR" and "STANDARD" OATMEAL and ffiOLLED OATS. I Remain, Always at your service, CHAMPION. P.S.— Follow Canada's example, and reject Single Tax and Free Trade.—o. UP-TO-DATE TAXi-CAR FOR HIRE 7ANTED KNOWN— That Mr ' J.
