A THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK.
The unaided intellect is incap
able of understanding all of the
immense problems which are pre
sented at a single glance on the
world horizon. Under such circum
stances, if 1 had not believed in
the providence of God I should
have felt myself lost in indeci
sions.—From President Wilson’s
Response to the French Protestant
Delegation, January 27, 1919.
The woods are full of swindlers
trying to get people to exchange
their money or Liberty Bonds for
all kinds of stock in oil wells, gold
mines, fertilizer companies, and
every imaginable sort of proposi-
tion. It’s a mighty safe rule to in
vest your money at home in some
thing you know something about.
Unless you have money to throw
away, 8 per cent and safety is bet
ter than a gamble on any far-away
concern. The bigger the profits
promised on a proposition the
greater the prospects that you will
lose all you put into it.— Exchange

PRICES ARE LIKELY TO RE
MAIN HIGH INDEFINITELY.
There were many who believed
that the signing of the armistice
would he immediately followed by
falling prices. Seven months have
passed, and there have been no
material price changes; in fact,
not a few commodities are now
selling at prices higher than at
any time during the war.
Slowly the economic world is
coming to see that high prices
have not been due so much to a
scarcity of materials as to a cheap
ened currency. Enormous loans
have been floated, inflation has
followed in consequence, and mon
ey has become plentiful and
cheap. Cheap and plentiful money
has simply meant high-priced
commodities, because as the dollar
has cheapened everything it buys
has proportionately risen in price.
A bushel of wheat, a pound of cot
ton or wool or tobacco will buy
about as much in commodities as
in 1914; but it will exchange for
two or three times as many dol
lars, because dollars are cheap.
Another phase of the price pro
blem is seen in the wage scale.
Wages for labor have risen great
ly, but probably no more on ail
average than have commodity
prices. In other words, the labor
er’s daily wage, on an average,
will today buy no more commodi
ties than it did five years ago,
though in dollars it may buy two
or three limes as much. Certainly,
then, wages should not he mater
ially lowered until commodity
prices fall, and it is hard to see
Imw commodity prices can fall,
until we have lower prices for the
labor that helps create them. It is
also pretty generally conceded
that wages for common labor were
in many eases too low before the
war, notable examples of this be
ing seen in the cotton producers
and sawmill workers of the South.
In the ease of the cotton grower,
his wife and children, wages, be
cause of low-priced cotton, were
generally pitifully inadequate;
and since a pound of cotton today
will buy little if any more than hi
pre-w ar times, wages of cotton
producers are still relatively low.
With these facts in mind, we do
not look for materially lower
prices in the near future. It will
be years before the enormous
debts of the world are paid; this
uill mean that currency deflation
Mill proceed very slowly, and this
in turn Mill mean that prices Mill
fall very slowly. The farmer or
other person who does not buy
what be needs, expecting material
ly lower prices in the near future,
is likely to he disappointed.—The
Progressive Farmer.

“ A TOTAL WRECK”
SAYS TENNESSEAN
flfbo Says He Now Feels Fine, Since Taking
Zlron Iron Tonic.
David Jones, of Forbus, Tenii.,
writes: “I got a bottle of Zlron and
will say that I never had anything to
come In bo good a time as I -was think
ing of giving up, I was so weak. I
cannot tell you how bad I felt. Had
stomach trouble, loss of appetite,
couldn't sleep, in fact was a total
wreck all over, as I am subject to weak
spells In the Spring of the year. After
using Ziron will say I now feel fine
and can do a fine days work. I think
you have a good medicine, and I can
surely recommend it to any one who
needs a tonic”.
M Jical authorities and text books
agree that Iron is needed to keep the
system In good condition. Investiga
tion shows that pale, weak, tired peo
ple generally lack the necessary a

strength that Iron gives may be ob
