WOBDS OF WISDOM ifJlO MY PEOPLE—v .When a demand arises for an :artiole, and if the supply should not 1)0 quite equal to the demand, it creates a scarcity, consequently higher prices. -Eingjiah ideas .and customs have ibeen. introduced into the Orient, and are spreading rapidly ; this, along with the world's increasing population, lias caused an extra demand for all 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 tie only free trade country of anyimporfcanoe 111 the world. In Great Britain, only a few day* ago, a Commission was appointed to inquire into the reason* ?r£y the cost of living had increased. T* been officially stated, while the «v%i of living had iDcr©afl6u 50 p©r aeai. daring the last 25 years, f*§®" fcad only increased 15 per, ,cent. _for the name period, so it as obvious taxins the land will not reduce the cost of living, nor increase the workers wages, and the only remedy for breat Britain is Protection. The Orient has, and is erecting, Irage industries equipped with modern machinery, worked, and tc be with Asiatic labour. The _ question suggests 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 ial>oar, augmented with modem machinery. There is still hope, as I am oredibly informed the success of the Bin«le Tax policy will depend upon the world adopting it; this ought to entare safety for", a* time. . _ During my varied experience 1 found that quack recipes were harmful to those with imaginary ailments, but they have the option of becoming well* and ■ remaining - her® if they will follow my advice. I strongly advise my people, and the imaginary sufferers, to feast upon the well-known recipes, prosperity, and longevity, etc., rie:— Ample protection on things we can produce, and good wages— HON MUSCLE-RAISER FLOUR and "STANDARD" OATMEAL and ROLLED OATS.
