The Purchasing Power of the Dollar. The Department of Labor has just published a review of the prices of staple foods in the United States which shows how the purchasing power of the dollar has been cut in half in recent years. Prices of staple foods in the United States increased on an average of 1 per cent from February 15 to March 15 last.

Figures made public by the Department of Labor show that all meat prices increased, as did the price of sugar. Eggs, Milk, flour and potatoes were cheaper. Prices advanced 8 per cent in the year from March, 1915, to March, 1916, and prices March, 15, 1916, averaged 5 per cent higher than for the entire year of 1915. Eighteen foods increased in price, five did not change and three were lower. A table covering prices for the last fifteen years shows that the purchasing power of a dollar has decreased steadily in all foods. In 1890 a dollar bought 8.1 pounds of round steak, today it will purchase 4.5 pounds; pork chops sold at 9.3 pounds for $1, against 5.4 now; bacon, 8 pounds, against 3.6; ham, 6.6, against

3.8; lard 10.8, against 6.9; hens, 7.4 against 4.9; eggs, 4.8 dozen, against 2.2; butter 3.9 pounds, against 2.6; milk, 14.7 quarts, against 11.1; flouf, 1.41 sacks, against 1.10; meal, 52.6 pounds, against 32.3 ; potatoes, 4.8 pecks, against 3.8 ; sugar, 14.5 pounds, against 14.7.

SIXT WILL SPEAK BEFORE CONVENTION

Federal Aid for Good Roads.

Federal' aid for improved highways seems assured. Both the senate and the house have passed a bill,, and it is now only a question of harmonizing the differences before a good roads measure is placed on the federal statute books. One of the features of the proposed measure, which makes it different from the pork barrel legislation, is that each state which takes advantage of federal aid must match every dollar the government expends with a like sum. For instance, if the government grants Indiana $1,000,000 for good roads, the state must put up $1,000,000. If the proposed measure is enacted into law, the good roads movement will be given tremendous impetus. It will focus public attention on the necessity of improved highways, educate the

public to the advantage of having cities and

towns connected with rural districts by roads

that are fit for use the year around. Unless Indiana establishes a highway com

mission, she will not share in the distribution of federal aid, for the government will deal with no smaller unit than the state. A centralized form of road administration, provided the local needs

are not slighted and ignored, is a desirable form

of handling the problem. Sentiment has been

growing and is rapidly forming into an expressed

determination m the Sixth district that a state

highway commission is needed. All the states of the Union, excepting five, Indiana included,

have highway commissions.

Evils of Constipation. Those who are habitually troubled with constipation and who permit their bowels to go two or three days without an operation have little relish for their food. Their stomachs become disordered, they have piles and kidney diseases. No one can reasonably hope for good health unless his bowels move once a day. If they do not move naturally they should bo helped, and for this purpose you will find no better medicine than Chamberlain's Tablets. Obtainable everywhere. Adv.
