WOKDS OF WISDOM 10 MY PEOPLE—iWhen a demand arises for an article, and if the supply should not %e quite equal to the demand, it ©Testes a scarcity, consequently higher prices. -English ideas and customs i Thave been introduced into the Orient, ■with the wdrld'a,increasuu; population, has 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 produo tog countries, and raises prices. Great Britain is the only free brads country of any importance in ftto world. In Great Britain, only a few days ago, a Commission was appointed to inquire into the reasons why the oos* of living had increased. ?t Mi been officially stated, while the of living had increased 50 per wtt>. during the last 25 years, wages had only increased 15 per cent, fo.r the same period, so it ib obvious taxing the land will not reduce the coat (of MviiiflC* nor increase'"the workers wages, and tie only remedy for Great BritaLn is Protection.

There is 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 safety for a time. # Daring my varied experience I found that quack recipes were harmful to those with imaginary ailments, btrif tfcey have the optioiTof becoming well and remaining here if they will Follow my advice. I strongly advise «y..people, and the imaginary, sufferers, to feast updn the well-known reiKpes, prosperity, and longevity, etc., ffa:—' .''■ Ampl© protection on things we oan ©reduce, and good wages—"CHAMPION MUSCLE-RAISER FLOUR'' and "STANDARD" OATMEAL and ROLLED OAT 3.
