WAGE, EXPRESSED IN NECESSITIES, KEEPS PAGE WITH NEEDS
Rochester Post-Express According to history, the Roman emperor Diocletian, 1,600 years ago, fixed the price of eggs at 5 cents a dozen, and the wages of unskilled labor at 15 cents a day. The prices of other articles of food were proportional to these, and a Rpman laboring man could thus, if he wished to, buy three dozen eggs a day. Along in the seventies here in America the wage of unskilled labor had climbed to a dollar a day, and eggs in the season of their plenty sold tor 12 cents a dozen. The laboring man had scored again, for he could then take eight dozen eggs with him at sunset if he so desired. During the last few years it has been a neck-and-neck, nip-and-tuck race between eggs and wages and their relative position has not greatly changed. With eggs, "state fresh" and "western fresh" at, say 50 cents a dozen, and wages at about $4, the toiler can still accumulate eight dozen eggs a day, whereas if it is only $3.50 or thereabout the agile egg is beating him in the race. Skilled labor, however, has left the hopelessly distanced egg at the quarter pole, and even the half skilled labor has left it far behind. Want More Eggs. The Window Cleaners' Union of New York city recently formulated its demand for $36 a week, which is equivalent to twelve dozen eggs a day,, and the modest ultimatum of drivers of retail milk wagons recently was for $50 a week, a 2 per cent, commission on sales, a six-hour day, with time and a half for overtime, and double pay for overtime on Sundays. This would probably figure to something like $56 for the seven days, equal to sixteen dozen eggs, which would keep 192 egg-a-day hens, if there is such a productive bird, at work throughout the year. It thus appears that since Diocletian's day wages, measured in the necessities of life, have increased about fivefold, and the world is clearly moving toward a state of affairs when the manual workers will have all the eggs and none will be left for the nonproducer doctor, lawyer, merchant, priest, and other physical drones of
me numan tamily who work with nothing but their brains.

Wed 41 Years, Woman, 69, Jealous of Aged Spouse LONDON, Oct 3. Mn. John E. Pool had her husband summoned to the West Ham court for assaulting her. She said she had to complain of her husband 'gadding about with other women, one of whom would even come to their house." She admitted to the
clerk she was jealous.
She said she had reason to be and produced a pack of letters and post
cards addressed to her husband. An
extract from one read: "Sorry I did
not see you last night. Love. S. S."
Another extract read: "Don't you think the baby is getting like you?" On a picture postcard of a baby was written: "Don't you remember when you and I were like this?" The clerk asked her why she did not get a divorce and she replied that she would not go in for a divorce after being married for 41 years. The court bound the husband over to keep the peace for six months.
