During the day their proprietors "are busy selling all kinds of vege- tables, fruit, tinware, dry goods and the like. At night the same toiling men doze on the curb stones, regardless of thé weather, that they may be sure to retain their place in’ the morning. A “No other civilized city in the’ MMMM world has such a spectacle of _ needless hardships ‘of ambitiows poor merchants. : 5 It Is frequently proposed to remove-this painful sight by abolishing the push-carts altogether and drive push-cart men from the streets, What would-become of them? 8 ‘The push-cart supplies a legitimate demand. If people did not buy from push-carts there would soon be-no push-carts. Not through choice but from necessity do the push-cart men shiver on the curbstone all night. They meet the necessity of the great east side for cheap food in} small quantities. Their abolition would be a hardship to their customers! ‘5 well as an uncalled-for punishment to themselves. | The cost of living”is high, needlessly high. 1 z | ; If the consumers could buy at not more than 50 per cent. over what} _the producer receives, prices would be lower and both producer and con- sumer would be better off. The modem system.of grocery stores and + butcher shops scattered everywhere, each with its store renting at a high price, its ice-box, its delivery wagon, its clerks‘ and its neightSoryood.ac- cessibility adds enormously to the cost of food. _ When New York was New Amsterdam and householders went to the markets, baskets on arm, not only were prices lower, but the gr0- | _, cerymen. and butchers themselves were ‘relatively better off. The cost, - of the paper and twine alone used to wrap up parcels runs into the; millions of dollars. The many individual delivery systems overlapping | the same territory are an enormous waste. j nnd daughter of a former Mayor of Minneapolis left her hi nd and a home of luxury to work as A’servant because, ahe deciates, she no longer loves him “Mind {s the «reat factor in the unlon of man and woman,’ fhe sald Jn explaining her action, ‘It time works changes in tie mind and the wite and the husbaud — are drifting further-out of touch then they #hould part.” In my opinion this Is neither new nor true af ti snajority of married couples.
