FISH AND RICE FORM
JAP DIET IN ENTIRETY
Away from Beaten Track Of Tourist,
Native Fare Is Limited to
Two Foods.

Away from the channels Of tourist
travel, the native Jap knows little or
nothing about meat, bread, or the other
forms of our American foods.
The native fare Of the japanese con-
sists Of rice. fish, fish and rice. Occa-
sionally. very occasionally. as you knock
about through the strictly native COM
munities you can procure eggs.
Many Of the villagers keep fowls and
sell the eggs to the big hotels Of the
seaport towns. 1t is, however. exceeding
ly difficult to induce the japanese to sell
you goose or a chicken. There Ii
lingering ancient dislike handed down
through the religion Of Buddhism against
the taking of life.
When you travel through japan away
from the beaten path Of the touring globe
trotter, you are apt to view the japanese
food rather hopefully at first. Your first
impressions are that you can learn to like
1t. But disgust and disappointment soon
take possession Of you, for the native fare
Of rice and fish, when you are brought
face to face with it continually day
after day. becomes most unsatisfying.
The average Jap culinary dish is most
insipid. II you like bean soup. known as
''Miso-shiru," the latter will taste de-
cidedly Hat unless you give 1t an added
zest by means Of curry powder. Occa-
sionally in a Jap village you may find
an inkeeper who can procure fresh milk
for you. There is a strong native liquor.
made from rice. which once in awhile
may be agreeable to your palate. 1t Is
known as sake" Is heated much the
same as our American hot .toddy." and
is always obtainable.
But sake soon loses its palatability,
and the very thought of rice" soon be-
gins to grow monotonous. When eggs are
more plentiful. however. the Japs can
supply you with a sort of native omelet
known as ''tamago-yaki,' but the usual
fiat and insipid dish of rice and fish is
the mainstay Of diet.
Away from the beaten track Of foreign
travel you stand little chance of enjoy
ing a strictly square meal" For who.
indeed. accustomed to our good American
food. can reconcile their hearty appe-
tites on fish and rice for Monday; rice
and fish for Tuesday; fish-rice on We'd
nesday: rice and fish and more rice on
Thursday? But everywhere you travel in
Japan you will find this colorless diet

the home Of a wealthy woman. who

with the information that she was
terribly Bohemian" The statement
ripped off with a little laugh that
said quite plainly: 'Of course, you

This will possibly recall to you in
vitations that have come from well-to-
do women who told you with high
pride that they were 'frightfully I'M
conventional or quite Bohemian"
With the majority of women VINO
boast about being different from other
people the motive is one of two things.
In the one case they are brainless,
silly bits of femininity. who like to
create a little sensation by leaving one
to think them quite naughty individ-
uals. They deceive no one by their in
sistence that they are "dreadfully b.
hemian" for they haven't the first
characteristic of a real Bohemian, and
can lead no one into believing they
have.
The other motive is the desire on the
part of certain women to be thought
clever and artistic. They have large
and luxurious homes, to which they in
wife second and third rate actors and
actresses. writers, and artists-and
think by so doing that they have Gre
ated a Bohemian atmosphere in their
domiciles that will stamp them truly
artistic in their tastes and friendships
and social connections for all time to
come.

next week 1t was quite probable that
would find her sunken in the deepest de-
preston, the shadow Of black gloom
gathered closely around her. The trag-
edy one read in her eyes was positively
heartbreaking.
After some six months Of this sort of
impossible conduct I met a woman who
had known her intimately from her girl
hood days, and remarked upon her Pc
culiar and radical changes of disposition.
suggesting that perhaps she possessed
more than one personality.
Clever Poses.
''Only poses. my DEAR" said the friend
with a laugh.

the Abbey this week. why. then. she
is taking the weeping Amanda as her
ideal of womanhood. and il living up
to her part faithfully.
when she read The Bishops Car
riage' she actually became the girl thief
and made several clever hauls. She is
always the latest female character OF
whom she has read, and 1t is really re-
markable how well she portrays them
This is rather a remarkable case of
posing, but VIC see examples Of 1t in
everyday life wherever We go, women
pretending to be Bohemians, others try
ing to make one think that they are right
there when it comes to standing under
the proper social awning, and still 9TH
ers pretending that they have character
istics that in reality nature never gave
them.
Shake the shams

that he never boasts Of his Bohemianism.
He has too many real issues of practical
life to meet to be fouud posing for ef-
feet.
The Bohemianism of one woman Of
whom 1 know consists of a certain ia
miliarity of her guests toward her. In
variably the frequent visitors to her
house greet her with peck on the cheek,
which is as stiff as it is improper. The
invariable refreshment in this house
when visitors drop in during an evening
is something or other in a chatting DISH
served with rye bread ana beer that
foams over big stems. The woman in
question never fails to make a point of
her Bohemianism when extending one an
invitation to come and see her.
I'VE are regular Boh-mIans, you know
my dear" she will tell a prospective
guest. proudly: and if the visit Is really
made the guest has every reason to Won
der over the why's and wherefores of the
pride in the voice that gave her the in
vitation to this make-believe realm Of
Bohemia.
Has No Real Friends.
The affected woman has no real and
lasting friends. Acquaintance would be
dull indeed who did not discover the
falsity of her pretensions and feel only
disgust for the pose that had been as
sumed.
Whatever else you are, be yourself.
Don't try to ape other folks because the
things they are supposed to do and to
sound good to you.
This reminds me Of a woman I met a
few years ago in Chicago. For a long
time she was the subject of much specu-
lation on my part, for her manner toward
me varied as much as though / were
meeting an entirely different individual
every time I came in contact with her.
Upon occasion she would meet ME gay

Valley View To Be Disman-
tied.

A report from Valley View is TO the
effect that Millikin & Aldridge, Of New
York, have bought the old saw mill
plant of the Southern Lumber & Boon
Co. at that place-that is, all of the ma
ch merry, nxtures, ETC.. and have begun
dismantling the mill, preliminary 10
sending the entire outfit by boat to r.
vine, wnere the firm will erect new
building and install the machinery as a
part of their extensive operations at that
point They are also building new
planning mill in connection with the saw
mill. They are extensive lumber deal
ers and now have large mill at Hays,
on the Kentucky river above Jackson.
1t will be rendered that the Southern
Lvmber & Boom Co. sold all Of their
real estate at Valley View last October
to j. S Stapp, of Lexington, reserving
only the mill machinery. which IS now
being taken away.
The dismantling and removal of this
large plant closes big business. which
has been successfully carried on by the
company at that place for more than 20
years. Lon Bryson, who has been river
boss fer the Southern Lumber & Boom
Co., since 1t was established there, has
secured the same position with the new
company and will move to Irvine in a
few days ID take up his duties. He is
one of the most capable and reliable
men ever in the service of the company,

olasville and deserves the promotion he
has earned d.-Jessamine Journal.

Shepherd of The Hills Makes
Decided Hit.

Harold Bell Wright's novel, THE
Shepherd Of the Hills. was one Of those
gripping stories that made one sure il
could never take stage form.
Yet an audience at the Grand Opera
House last night disproved the idea and
followed the story through four acts of
realistic dramatization.
To the Ozark mountains comes Dan
lel Howelt in search OF missing man,
who had painted a masterpiece Of beau
tiful girl There he learns that the ar
tisi had fed 10 years before, after be-
traying the daughter OF old Matt Math-
thews.
Mats daughter died, but left child,
Feter, ,child of nature Howett
hears tho threats of vengeance against
the artist by the enraged father. who
clings to the child, his remaining kin.
Howett's pride is broken and he be-
comes The Shepherd OF the Hills"
The haunting sadness Of the story is
relieved by the loves and joys Of others,
especially the romance Of young Matt
and the beautiful ward of old Matt OF
the ine-drawn characters. Preachin'
Bill, known as "everybody's friend, - is
refreshing. Admirably portrayed by
Leighton l. Stark, well known to Phila-
delphia play goers, the preachings Of
"Bill' stick.
Lawrence Williams, who was with
the old Girard Avenue Theatre stock
company in 1892, has the title role, and
well deserved the warm reception he re-
ceived. Ella Malmrose, who had the
difficult role of Pete, is the hit of the
piece. She has dramatic talent and a
compelling voice.
Don Merrifield as old Matt and Joseph
Kelvin, leader of the lawless element,
appreciate their opportunities. The love
story is well handled by Margaret Lang
horne and John Thorn. The opportuni-
ties for stage pictures are well realized.
