V The Friendly LOCKED JOHNS, tyath CAN YOU BEAT IT? The life of the western beet sugar industry has been saved by a moderate tariff which will prevent its extinction by foreign grcwr sugar produced with the cheapest kind of labor. The act also saves the western fruit and nut industry which enters largely into the manufacture of candy, from destructive foreign competition which on account of cheap labor could underbid the American products. Boston candy manufacturers now raise a loud cry to show how this protection is going to hurt the "consumer. Mayette and Chabert walnuts and Jordan Almonds must pay p duty under the new tariff of 10 to 14 cents a pound.. Lower grades such as are used lor making cheaper candies are taxed about I to 3 cents a pound. Most of the larger candy manufacturers are soon t announce new prices to meet the increased costs due to the "tariff. One manufacturer has already increased the price of chocolate; from one dollar to one dollar and twenty-fiv- e cents a pound. It i rrobable that but a small fraction of a pound of nuts was used in the pound of chocolates and yet the manufacturer seizes this opportunity and excuse for increasing the price of his wares from one dollar to one dollar and twenty-fiv- e cents, when the tariff on a full pound of nuts was from to 4 cents and on sugar about 2 cents.

Ilarsh lessons are usually well learned. The man who foolishly trusts a rotten plank to carry him across a whirling stream and then pays for his folly by a stiff fight for life, always is more cautious when he must walk another plank to follow his pathway on the other side of a stream. The same logic may Justly be applied to every walk of life. If one spends all he earns, the money naand turally goes; hut, if he saves something, what he saves is certain to grow if properly Invested. And it is surprising how fast it will grow and what an assistance it will become when Hie source of supply becomes weak or slow in producing.

Out of the struggles and discouragements the country and world at large have been experiencing, common sense will eventually rise to a higher plane than it lias occupied lor several years. And, though many may have foolishly spent all they earned when prosperity was with them and since have been finding it difficult to make both ends meet, when the tide turns back to normal, greater value will be placed on Incomes, more caution will be exercised In spending, more money will be saved, and healthful simple and pleasures will be appreciated there will Tie wider appreciation of the privilege of earning fair wages or making fair profits on business done.
