At Palace AirdOme Tonight.

Taking as it's theme the dramatic
struggle between the small farmer
and the food trusts, "The Public Be
Damned" sheds glaring light on the
methods used to cruch the weak COM
petitor. How a resourceful, il.domi-
table woman, aroused by her hus-
bands wrongs, enters into a fight to
the death with the moneyed powers,
and how she wins her point, is told
in gripping fashion by Charles Rich
man and Mary Fuller in this splen-
did production being shown at the
Palace Airdome tonight.

PRACTICAL USEFULNESS
OF CHEWING GUM
Best and Least Harmful Invented
BY Man In All the Ages.
Says Medical journal

! "Of all the varied means Of nIasti-
catory stimulation which have been
restorted to by man in all times and
ages. the great American gum seems
/ least harmful and most helpful" says
the New York Medical Journal al
most enthusiastically That there is
! a physiological demand for some
lmasticatory stimulant is shown by
/ the universally OF the practice of
tehewiHg. whether it-Aa- the tobacco
of the American Indian, the betel nut
of the east the coca leaves of South
America the slippery elm bark the
tamarack, and the spruce gum of the
down east Yankee, the sweet gum of
the Cuff States the chicle Of the
Mexcans, which, III Its American
adaptation, becomes the great Ameri-
can chewing gum, man has always
felt the necessity of chewing some
thing more than his meals That
there is a practically useful side for
this habit is evidenced by the orders
placed by the quartermaster of the
United states army for 1900 900
packages of this standard American
dainty. We learn from the war de-
partment that the commanding officer
of a field regiment about To embark
stated that $50 pounds of chewing
gum would take the place of hun
when water was most needed and least
readily obtainable. ON long marches
the chewing of gum would go far to-
ward quenching the thirst of the
troops when water is not accessible.
AS Ellis Parker Butler has aptly
said; If our boys over there to rim
the hides off the Germans want to
chew gum, let EN- chew. If they
want ten tons Of gum, send them
eleven tons. However much the
chewing of gum may be condemned
from an esthetic point of view, It's
practical utility is so great as to
quite counterbalance the esthetic OBJ
lection. The gum chewing youths Of
our American army may corrupt the
good manners of the poilu and make

improve the condition of the teeth Of
the people so greatly as to quite
