RETAIL PRICKS IN GOUEKI('H.
Dbieussed Amkably at a Meeting of
Merchants and Maehinista.
As a result of the Invitation extended
by Goderich Lodge, International Awo-
ciatioa of Machinists. to the retail mer-
chants of town, a meeting was held at the
Lodge rooms, West street, on Tuesday
night which promises much for cordial
co-operation b ,e..tea""een merchants and
C onsumtrs in Godei lch.
Mr. Alf. Bewick, president of Goderich
Lodge, was In the chair. anpisthe proceed-
ings were opened by a short address from
Mr. F. H. Hancock, explatmng the object
of the meeting as thedesre to establish a
better feeling in Goderich„su that. instead
of blaming the merchants for the high
cost of living, they might come to feel
that Goderich is a good place to work in
and to live In.
Mr, John Dry was chiefaspokesman for
the rnachint$ts. Lhsclauning any intention
of telling the' merchants how to run their
business. he spoke ill some things which
he thought shdhki be remedied. There
were strange discrepancies between the
prices charged by different merchants,
even on standard articles; goods displayed
in the windows were not priced; prices
were not stated in the merchants' adver-
tisements in the newspapers. He declared
that when a woman bought out of town
there was a good reason for it, for a
asuman took a great deal more pleasure in
personal stopping than in doing it by
mail. Goderich Lodge intended to "boost"
Goderich and its members wanted to buy
their requirements an town, and they
asked the merchants to meet them half-
way.
The merchants were then invited to
speak. and there folhwed a very interest-
ing discussion.
Mayor Wigle and Mr. J. A. Campbell
spoke of conditions in the drug buslnsd;
Messrs. E. L, Dean and C. M. Robertson
spoke for the grocers, and others heard
from were Messrs. D. O'Brien, W. C.
Pridham. H. J. A. M1acEwan, Reg. Shar-
man, W. T. Millar and C. C. Lee. It
was explained that a variation in prices
might result from the fact that one mer-
chant purchased while prices were lower
and another after prices had advanced.
Mr. Pndham told of the investigation
being carried on by a committee of the

Board of Trade. which had ascertained on
a comparison of prices that Goderich
prices were more often below than above
those in other towns, One member of the
committee who had been inclined to com-
plain of unduly high prices in Goderich
hound on comparison that prices here
were on the whole lower than those in
other towns similarly situated.
There was an argument on the question
whether a merchant should take advant-
age of a rise in prices to charge a higher
price on goods he had purchased before
the advance, or whether he should con-
tinue to charge at the old price so long as
the old stock lasted. Mr. Lee and Mayor
W igk held that the merchant was justified
in advancing his prices in such a case; it
paces were lalling he would have to lower
his charges no matter at what price he
may have purchased his goods.
Mr. J. N. Kernighan and XMr, William
Young, jr., of Colborne, spoke from the
farmer's standpoint. Mr. Kernighan said
they would have to go further back than
the merchants to discover the origin of
high pr'icea. Mr. Young spoke of the
tariff, especially of that on farmers'
machinery, as a great influence in high
prices. With cheaper machinery produc
tion would be increased and prices would
be reduced all round.
Mr. W. S. Bowden. secretary of the
Board of Trade, said he had lived in
various towns and no matter where he
went he heard the complaint that that
particular town was the dearest place to
live in. He suggested that the unions
might by means of their lodges through-
out the country institute a general inves-
tigation of costs, including rent, fuel,
food and clothing. As for Goderich, he
found it "the best, the sweeest, the most
congenial place to live in he had ever set
his foot in." •
It was decided to arrange a meeting of
a committee of the merchants and of the
machinists to go into apeeific instances in
which there was complaint as to prices.
Mayor Wigle ori behalf of the mer-
chants tendered a vote of thanks to
Goderich Lodge, and the meeting con-
cluded with the best of feeling on both
aides.
The Best fledicint
for Little Ones,
Thousands of mothers state positively
that Baby's Own Tablets are the best
medicine they know of for little ones.
Their experience has taught them that
the Tablets always do just what i• claimed
for them and that they can be given with
perfect safety to children of all ages.
Concerning them Mrs. Joseph Therrien,
St. Gabriel de Brendon, Quebec, writes:
"Baby's Own Tablets are the best medi-
cine 1 know of for little ones. 1 thought
i would lose my baby before trying the
i'ablets, but they soon made him healthy
and happy and how i would not be with
out them." The Tablets are solei by
medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a
box from the Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,
