WOKDS OF WISDOM TOMYPEDPtEWhen a demand arises for an article, and if the supply should not fee quite equal to the demand, it creates a,scarcity, consequently higher toea. ; English ideas and customs ve been introduced into the Orient, and are spreading rapiddy; this, along ■with the world's increasing; 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 prcducing countries, and raises prices. tSreat Britain fe tie only, free trade countTv of any importance in the world.

The Single Tax theory ig absolutely one tax on the land and free trade. It is apparent it would not lesc-sn the cost of production, but reduce wages tto cope with Asiatic Labour, agumen'fced with modern machinery. There is still hope, as I am credibly informed the success of the Single Tax policy wiil depend upon the world adopting it. This ought to ensure safety for a time. During my varied experience J found that quack recipes were harmful to those with imaginary ailments, but .they have the option of becoming well and remainnnc here 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., vua-» — Ample protection on things we can ?roduce, and good wages—"CHAMION MUSCLE-RAISER FLOUR" and "STANDARD" OATMEAL and POLLED OATS.
