us don’t buy more than'.we eat—and
we probably do—most of u8„ assured-
ly buy more than we assimilate, and
it is the food that we assimilate, and
not that which we eat, which deter-
mines hunger and, consequently, our
buying. -Mastication will require more
time and less money than we usually
expend in the task, or the duty or the
pleasure of nourishing ourselves,
this depending on the mood we go
to the table in. It will ease the tax
on the stomach and the pocketbook
both to chew. We shall have neither
the time nor the desire for the quan-
tity of food Which we are in the habit
of putting into our stomachs in an
undigestible form. In other words,
we sfyall perhaps learn more from
Horace Fletcher than from Adam
Smith of ways to reduce the cost of
living.”

A DAILY LESSON IN HISTORY.
NEW TEMPLE THEATRE.
. If: you want tp meet Sammy Lane
and know all about her sweet love,
her thrilling life among those good
and bad folk of the Ozarks—if- you
want to know about the man who
would not fight for her, and also
about the man who: risked his life for
her dear squl—if you want to know
about Sammy’s father, Jim Lane, the
old Bald Knobber, Uncle Ike, the’
postmaster at the forks, with his “Ha
Thundas,” “Preachin’ Bill,” “A-say-
in’ things as good as David Harum,”
“Wash Gibbs” and the old “Shep-
herd”—and all the rest of the people
who lived among the hills, you can
find it all in “The Shepherd of the
Hills,” a dramatization of Harold
Bell Wright’s novel, which opens its
second annual engagement at the
New Temple Theatre on Saturday,
November 25.
The dramatization -was made ‘by
yit/ Wright with assistance of
Efebery W. Reynolds. It is said to be
even inorp interesting than the story
in book form.

CONSERVING THE FOOD SUPPLY.

New TempleTheatre, Sat.,Ndv. 25
The high cost of living, which to
■ many people,has been inerely a flip-
peat expreasion. is gpmlng to he a
matter of real concern, and seriods
^minded people are thinking of ways
to relieve what Is coming to be an

tojtow our modern system. Every
