There is something to consider in the daily expenses for the household necessities, which in the aggregate of the year amount to a good deal. The ethics of buying and selling seems to be for the vender to get all he can, and for the purchaser to see that he don't get too much. Bui what is too much? It is almost a profound question, and presents the strange paxadox that the dearest in many things is often the cheapest. Certainly this is so in food where health is involved, and in remedies which restore health after it has been impaired. It is certainly so in clothing; for acheap suit that will hardly last one season is dearer than the one which will last two seasons, the difference in price being reason- \ able. So in shoes, and the like. Re- : curring to the items of food and health, undoubtedly the most im- portant, it is found that villainous adulteration is what renders it cheap- er, in much that is sold, and men are known who have spent thousands to be cured of disease, have suffered years of agony, and have trifled away their substance on worthless reme- dies. That which is testified to by thousands as being an absolute cure, and permanently efficacious, is cheap at any price in comparison with such as have no virtue, and which prolong suffering. A case in point is the fol- lowing: “New Bloomfield, Pa., April 26, 1886. The Charles a Vo- geler Co., Baltimore, Md. Gentle- men:—For more than thirty years I had been afflicted with rheumatiam so severe I had to use morphine to secure rest at night. Spent bun- dreds of dollars with physicians and for remedies without benefit, Five years ago I tried St. Jacobs Oil, and it effected an entire and permanent cure I have not been troubled with it since. Cold or damp weather does not affect me atall. I desire to give it my unqualified indorse- ment. J. E. Bonsall, clerk of the several courts of Perry county, Pa.” The point here is not so much what Mr. Bonsall paid for the remedy for pain, for the price is a mere bagatelle but that he was cured permanently after thirty years suffering.
