WAGES AND COST OF LIVING IN JAPAN."

The average rate of wages continues to increase, reports the British Vice. onsul ut Tokoheras, and indeed has taken u special step upwards. Taking the rates of wages in 1902 as the standard the average rate of wages for 38- einsson of workmen in Yokohama had increased in 1906 16.95 per cent, and in 1907 36.26 per cent. Of the 38 dasses only four showed a decrease out the figure for 1902, while as there were only six increases of 50 per sent. or over it will be seen that the increase is fairly well distribate over all classes. It tunat not be thought that the rates of wages for labourers is yet high compared with British standards, for it must be remembered that the standard of living in matters of food, clothing, &c., amongst the labouring classes in Japan is still very low. This fact, however, renders it Improbable that there will be any reduction la the rates of wages for the standard of living is constantly advancing, and it is more likely that;

will continue to increase.
