In fact, almost overy other wave dashed In at the door. Armed with brooms and mops. mh Partington, with such nolo as she could command, endeavored to sweep the ocean out of the houso. But as fast as ho mopped up one wave, another had swept In and she waa finally oompellod to retlro to an upper story.

For example, there Is a move ment away from the extremely deep cape collar of former seasons. Instead, we frequently find the choker collar or what Is known aa the petal one, This latter Is extremely becoming, Inasmuch an It comes up about the throat In a way that reminds you of a lily's calyx.

Common Sense or Calamity? AFKW days ago, one of New York's largest and most reputable i lolhing houses ran newspaper advertisements illufctruting" with graphic divisions of a dollar sliced like a pic just where every cent that comes in goes. About eleven cents out of every dnllur tnkeu in was hhown to go for rent nnd taxes ; four cents for delivery, freight, building repairs, insurance, bad debts, telephones and other incidentals; fifty cents goes into wages directly paid for making nnd Kclllng the goods, and twenty-five cents for material with its direct labor costs leaving ubout ten cents out of every dollur coming in to spreud over advertising, profit, surplus and to on. To give the consumer the benefit of a price reduction, this great business house could effect snvlngs by cutting costs in only one place tho three-quarter slice represented by direct labor and by mateiial, the cost of which latter is in turn largely regulated by the high cost of the labor involved' in its manufacture. It is claimed thut this proportion of income apd outgo holds good for most every other Industry. Labor, which periodically and frequently nnd sometimes justifiedly demands more wages because of the high coht of living, Is the one great factor in the higli cost of pretty nearly everything. This means that there are only two ways in which tho II. C. L. can be kept declining till it readies n normal level.' First. Eitlier the wages of labor must be brought, down to a normal level, thus directly cutting the labor cost, or Second, The average production per man must bo greatly increabcJ, thus indirectly decreasing labor cost. If labor wants to keep enjoying its present high wages, and to take full advantage of tho fact that declining prices nnd undiminished income really amount to a wage increusc, the puth is plain before it it must cut out btrikes and other cutting of the nose to spite the face and produco more than over before.

'"How interesting!" the guest exclaimed, de lighted. "The best part of Asco Blend," Mrs. Jones de clared, "is that it costs only 29c per pound, in spite of its unmatchable quality. It's really a high priced coffee, but by their Producer-to-Consumer Plan, which eliminates the middleman's profits en tirely, the American Stores Co. is able to sell it for only 29c per lb. instead of the high price it's really worth."
