One has only to think back on the cost of living ((when wages were certainly much lower) prior to 1014 and compare with present-day prices for everything. Rents, wages, and all conditions have risen so highly that it necessarily followed that all commodities in clothing, in food necessities, in luxuries, and in all the essentials of modem life must proportionately increase. It is only by systematising that economy can he .attained. The process of dealing in the most urgent of all the daily food supply has always hern 'the hamassed housewife’s chief concern. When Cash and Gamy was introduced to the large communities of the world’s centres, then it was realised that the only medium possible had arrived. Dunedin Qitv is to receive a great Christmas and New Year gift when this system is established here at the largo promises, next to Hayward’s and opposite Arthur Barnett, -Ltd., in George street, on Monday morning. From Monday on, all will have the opportunity of buying the 'best well-known brands in a simple, expeditious manner of landing them in the. home at prices which will bring recollections of those cheaper and happier days of ten or twelve yeivlJ ago.—[Advt.]
