SOLVE HIGH COST
OF LIVING BY
EATING FISH
BY PROF. EDNA NOBLE WHITE
Domestic Science College, Ohio
State University.


Two statements that should at
tract the attention of the house
wife are often heard-one that
the cost of living is rapidly in
creasing and the other that most
people eat too much meat. 1t must
be remembered that meat is one
of our highest priced fod prod
ucts, and therefore, If 1t is over
used, 1t behooves the housewife
to study the question OF possible
substitutes.
Such animal foods as oysters
and fish of various kinds. espe-
ciaily II combined with cereal
products containing protein, offer
desirable substitutes at some
what lower cost than. meat. Oys-
tiers, of course, are not high in
food value, since they contain SO
much water. but their flavor Ia

with macaroni and milk, or
creamed and served on toasted
bread, they are savory and nutri-
tious, and the cost il not prohibi-

Dear Miss Grey: l wrote
to you some time ago, but re-
cei4ed no answer. 1t was
about my wife being in love
with a musician. She Is,
and always has been, a good
woman, and is 32 years old;
but looks much younger.
My fault is drinking and a
quick temper, but after being
married to me for the last
twelve years, don't you think
she ought to be accustomed
to that and not mind it?
She has got into the habit
of going to cheap shows the
last couple of years.
Now, Miss Grey, won't you
please tell me how to break
her off this habit for the
children's sake, IL not mine?
Also, how to make her for

whom she insists she will

A little while ago stood by the grave
OF the old Napoleon-a magnificent tomb
of gilt and gold, fit almost for dead
deity. I thought of the orphans and the
widows he had made-of the tears that
had been shed for his glory, and OF the
only woman who ever loved him, pushed
from his heart by the cold hand OF
ambition. And l said I would rather
have been a French peasant and worn
wooden shoes; would rather have lived
in hut with vine growing over the
door, and the grapes glowing purple in
the kisses of the autumn sun; would
rather have been that poor peasant with
my loving wife by my side, knitting as the
day died out OF the sky-with my children
upon my knees and their arms about me.
I would rather have been that man and
gone down to the tongueless silence of the
dreamless dust than to have been that
imperial impersonation of force and
murder.-Robert Ingersoll.

BUILDING A BUSINESS.

It is a difficult proposition to build a
business without capital and business
methods. What would we think of a
man who started in business with little
capital; in poor location, with poor
goods, poor statesmen, poor reputation,
and at last, but not least poor advertising.
If the poor statesmen do not sell the goods
to the public at the poor location, aided
by the poor advertising, what does the
poor merchant blame. He invariably
blames his advertising, and says adver-
Using doesn't pay. His advertising
don't pay him.
The impossible is not claimed for
advertising. No one claims that adj
vertising can change the leopard's spots,
but advertising will sell the leopard's
skin. Likewise no one claims that adj
vertising will make business man out of
man, or success of any business, but
it is claimed that advertising will assist
materially in building business for a
Illol "AClC CO1AAlIlOl SclASc Is UScu Ill Vic
conduct of the business.
The basis of all individual success in
life is common sense, and the basis of
success in business is common sense.
If man uses common sense in en-
barking in business, buying his goods,
selecting location, choosing statesmen,
and parading his wares before the public
through advertising, it is as impossible
to prevent him from succeeding as to
stop the Niagara. His purpose is to
build a permanent and profitable patrons
age. The only way to do that is to go
out after business all the time.
No business essential is less under
stood and more neglected, and thus con-
tributes more completely to so many
business failures than advertising. The
buying habit of the people is changing
constantly and the best way to keep in
touch with these ever changing habits,
ever increasing demands, is through
newspaper advertising everybody looks
to the newspaper for all the news. Elk.

Governor-elect Hammond has an
nounced that he will leave Washington
for Minnesota the middle of December,

bership in the house until January 1.
The governor-elect said he had no in
tention of calling a special election to
fill the place in congress that will be
created by his retirement from the house.
Mr.. Hammond said that as the seat
in the house to the credit of the Second
District would be vacant for only two
months, following his assumption OF the
duties of governor, he would not think
himself justified in subjecting the state
to the expense that would be entailed by
Especial election.

sufficient to lay the dust along Minnesota

which our legislative policies Of the
past fifty years have failed 50 utterly
to secure. Our foreign trade will be
doubled and new home industries will
be stimulated. We shall have learned
through necessity to make many Of
the commodities we now import, and
we will supply practically the whole
western hemisphere with American
products.
Third: It will be impressed upon us
once for all that contrary to certain poll
tical demagogues, peace can never be
preserved by preparation for war; that
militarism is not protective but pro-
vocative. Instead, therefore, Of the
manufacture of the siege-guns for the de-
struction Of life, we will manufacture
goods for the preservation and comfort
Of life. Instead of instruments Of tor
ture, we will make instruments of
pleasure. Instead of the accoutre
ments of war, we will arm our citizens
with the accoutrements of play. Instead
OF employing the surplus energies OF
our youth in the non-productive activi-
ties of devastation and ruin, we will give
them those wholesome recreations which
increase their capacity for toll. Instead
of sending our young men away to weary
marches, hunger and death, we will keep
them at home, contented and peaceful.
Instead of providing our little boys with
toy-rifles, knives and Indian war dress,
with which to develop the savage
spirit of destruction and murder, we will
give them miniature bowling alleys and
turning poles, home billiard tables and
indoor baseball with which to develop
the spirit of domestic contentment and a
happy family consciousness. Instead
Of prohibiting games, we will prohibit
guns.

Official Paper OF the City of New Uim

Negotiations were pending yesterday
for a transfer of North Minnesota Street
property which may result in the
establishment of a new meat market
While the Review is glad to see new
business enterprises here, it is question
whether there is a call for a fourth meat
market. We should prefer to see some
of the plans of the present dealers carried
out so that we could have model shops
here. A fourth market may make 1t
hard for those already here to make the
improvements that they would like tc
carry out.
