And prices, moreover, have no fixed relation to prosperity. What we call the cost of living has actually no real relation to prices. For while the present price level is high, the hu man effort that must be put forth to live, which is the actual "cost of liv ing,'' is as low as it ever has been— far lower for us than ever in any one country in the history of the world— simply because in most cases a day's work ^ill buy as much and some time* more than before the war and because a given amount of labor will secure an amount of necessities and luxuries that men, say twenty-five years ago, never dreamed of possess ing. There is no doubt that salaried peo ple and unorganizied laborers have suffered from the fluctuating dollar and that speculators have made tem porary large winnings, but, by a.nd large, the cost of living in the sense of this country's productiveness, the yitld of its natural resources, the ac cessibility of its supplies brought about by the vast network of distribu tion. is an excellent basis.—The Na tion's' Business for October.

Papeete, Tahiti, Aug. 20.—(By Mail)—The rising price of copra forecasts better times for the. Society Islands after a period of depression due to the effects of the influenza' epidemic, the low price of copra, ex orbitant freight rates and the scarcity of labor. One effect of the advancing ptice of copra is indicated in reports from the pearl islands of the Paumotu group that the taking of pearl shell will be light this year. Owners of plantations are remaining home to make copra. Cold weather has pre vented many divers from going after the shell this year. Despite the more optimistic senti ment brought by higher copra prices, many residents here believe the econ omic condition of the islands will not be much better until France adopts a different attitude toward Tahiti and French settlements in Oceania.
