Eugene V. Haynes Co. Importer*, 37 Whitehall St Atlanta Oa, STILL LEMS ALL DTsitRS. The Favorite with all Smokers and Growing Daily in Popularity. WASHINGTON, D. C.. October 26. —(Special)—A special report, by the Department of Agriculture, on the question' of meat supply, consumption and surplus shows that the price of meat has greatly Increased within the last few years; that the retail meat hill of the country Is over two billion dollars, and that every In crease of a cent a pound In the nat ional average retail price of meat raises the total yearly expense to consumers 6168,000,000. This Is equivalent to saying that the addi tion of a single cent a pound would increase the profits of meat dealers to that extent. The report given out by the de partment today with these figures was prepared by Chief George K. Holmes, of the Division of Foreign Markets. Among other things It de clares: "Investigations of meat prices by the national- bureau of labor Indicate that the average price of meat per pound paid by consumers In 1900 was 12 3-4 cents, 13 cents In 1901, 13 1-2 cents in 1905, nnd 13 3-4 possibly 14 cents In 1906. It follows that the retail meat bill of this coun try was $2,052,279,000 in 1900, and about $2,304,000,000 In 1906. Every Increase of a cent a pound In the nat ional average retail price of meat raises the total yearly expense to consumers by $168,000,000.” LETTER TO G. S.

Dear Sir: Ten years ago, there was one pure paint and 200 adulterated there are now eight pure, 200 adulter ated, about half of the latter short- measured besides. There is still but one best, and the difference Is ten gallons Devoe goes as far as eleven next-best—$5 In every ten gallons. A new word has come up In paint; it Is strong. Strong paint goes fur ther and wears longer; weak paint takes more gallons nnd wears-out sooner. The proper cost of a 10-gallon Job is $50. Paint that takes 11 gallons makes it $55. Paint that takes 12 gallons makes It $60. Paint that takes 13 gallons makes It $65. Paint that takes 20 gallons makes It $100. The $30 Job wears twice as long as the $100. These figures are not pre cise; they are round. The 10-gallon pdlnt is Devoe. Yours truly, 48 F. W. DEVOE & CO. Amerlcus Construction Co. sell our paint. WASHINGTON, D. C., October 26..— (Special)—Of all the people who are scared at the panicky state of affairs In and about Wall street, Secretary Cortelyou Is probably scaredest. His little presidential boomlet would be blown Into smithereens In very short order were a real panic to come, and he has been so close to Wall street all his life that he Is unable to dif ferentiate a real panic from a break in securities in Wall street and the! consequent failuro of one or two of the big trust companies. In spite of all the throwing of cold water on It, it Is well understood here that the young man from New York who had such a skyrocket career had his eye on the White House, and the only way he can get there Is to be put there by the backing of the finan cial Interests. Wouldn't Stay “Bought” Because he would not stay bought there Is no man In public life or private who Is so unanimously dis liked by Wall stre.et as Roosevelt. The moneyed Interests'of New York have always disliked him. The one time they pretended to love him was when they bought him up In the last presi dential election with a large campaign fund. He stayed bought for a couple of years, during which time he was the hero of Wall street But when no longer able to stem the tide of pub lic clamor for the ousting of those who had betrayed the people’s trust and had committed all sorts of out rages he turned upon them with his mighty flow of words. Wall Street’s Candidate So Wall street's candidate for the presidency is Cortelyou. He prompt ly went to New York to help out “the street,” and he helped It out. Of course, Mr. Roosevelt approves of'thls matter of helping out, for the mere matter of depositing a few million dol lars in the banks In New York is such a customary thing and is so little un derstood by the people that there Is A Notre Dame Lady’s Appeal To all knowing sufferers of rbeu matlsm, whether muscular or of the Joints, sciatica, lumbagos, backache, painB In the kidneys or neuralgia pains, to write to her for a home treatment which has repeatedly cur ed all of these tortures. She feels it her duty to send It to all sufferers FREE. You cure yourself at home as thousands will testify—no change of climate being necessary. This simple discovery banishes uric acid from the blood, loosens the stiffened Joints, purifies the blood, and bright ens the eyes, giving elasticity and tone to the whole system. If the above Interests you, for proof address Mrs. M. Summers, Box R, Notre Dame, Ind. comparatively little danger of outburst from the people, especially when so many influential ones feel that the little deal helps them out by re-establishing confidence In the banking Institutions of the country There Is no doubt that President Roosevelt would like to have all the credit for running In these swindlers, and there Is little doubt that the peo ple very largely attribute It all to him. He is a remarkable man. He keeps his ear close to the ground and he knows what the people throughout the country want. Cortelyou does not know what they want. He gets his opinions like so many of his type from the club-men and patrpns of the Waldorf-Astoria dining rooms, and they ode and all are of the opinion that "the people” consist of those who buy and sell- stocks on the New York stock exchange. We are here to sell you things to wear. We want to do it, and we have the things, timed to the min ute-top notchers. Some men hesi tate to “shop”— think they must buy or they are “troubling” us. They are not. To show them what we have—to try on our Stein-Bloch-made Fall Smart Clothes, and fit them is no trouble —it is a pleasure. Come in. You are the man we Want. RYLANDER SHOE COMPANY.
