From the box-office standpoint. last
evening Texas" at the New Oregon
was failure-or at least near-fail,
ure. From the standpoint of the au-
dience the play was quite the reverse,
and as drama of the not-mellow
sort 1t was certainly good.
Texas was an eastern conception
of the west--or southwest, and was
really recognizable conception. The
man who wrote the play evidently
had been west of the Mississippi river,
and at least one of the actors had
seen a cowboy before he played the
part. The one in particular referred
tc here was Allen st. John. as "Okly-
homy,' who in spite of a normally
erect figure was keen enough To OBJ
serve that the man who wore chaps
was usually bow-legged and he was
bow-legged with a vengeance.
The story of Texas" Is not alto
gether new. but it moves naturally.
and that is lot. The cowboys in the
play might have ridden the range in

WIVES MAY GO THROUGH

Washington. Nov. 1S.-A woman

searching of her husbands pockets,

complaint that he threatened to
knock her head off, and he objected
to his wife taking liberties with his
pockets while he slept.

Lardless Cookery.

Horseless carriages, wireless telegra-
ply, and now lardless cookery! Lard
has, from time immemorial, held sway
in the kitchen, but it has one fatal OBJ
jection-it is indigestible Nine-tenths
of the indigestion with which the Amer
lean nation is afflicted is due to the use
of pork and its by-product-lard.
Recognizing this, The N. K. Fair
bank Company, Chicago, have placed on
the market vegetable oil cooking fat,
Cottolene, which can be used in every
way that lard or butter can, and which
makes delicious, digestible and nourish-
ing food. 1t is recommended by physi-
clans, even to invalids, and it is cheaper
than lard, one-third less being required.
