GEST FAVORS new
IDEAS FOR PLAYS
Theatrical Novelty is Sought
by American Producer
of Broadway Hits.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1S.-In affairs
theatrical. there is always one ele-
ment OF anticipation-inter in
what Morris Gest Will do next.
Whatever Il may be, It is bound
10 be interesting and & is sure 10
have a real artistic background.
Morris Gest is a fearless person
with a vision, an instructive knowl-
edge and love Of art and beauty
and a great sense of values.
OF course It is Morris Gest who
has brought Balieff's Chauve- Souris
to America.
What is Balieff's Chauve-Souris?
Well, it's the Gernier-cri, the III
tra-modern. one might say. ultra
futurist. expression in the theater.
The Theatre de la Chauve-Souris
means The Bat Theater Of Moscow.
It developed from the meeting Of
the actors Of the Moscow Art The
ater after their performances when
they would give little entertain
ments for their own pleasure. The
novelty spread abroad until they
were lured, although keeping the
intimate character OF the entertain
ments, into offering them to the
public.

They went TO Paris and Paris

via London. whore they also met
with success.
Folk songs, folk dances - the
Russian ltfe-motif in its varied and
mysterious form-naturally domi-
mates the entertainment which Is
composed Of many acts ranging
from Russian genre pictures to ex-
quisite aesthetic bits which are uni
versal In appeal. Indeed even the
fine satires. burlesques. comedies
tragedies. although Russian, have
this same appeal, which rises above
the limitations OF language The
/ scenery, costumes, lighting are also
ultra-modern. They are as startling
in their daring loveHness as IN their
originality. The music, especially
the singing. IS OF a new school. &"
Back Of everything, burlesqUe, com
edy. caricature. aestheticism, there
is that deep background Of culture.
One OF the charms OF the Chauve-
Souris is the intimacy between per
former and audience. OF course the
storm of applause which greeted
the great Russian singer Chaliapin
and the over-the-foolights hand

VIE. Do Sharks Cat.

All sharks are not mau-eaters. Far
from 1t; most persons who have fallen
victim to sharks have been eaten mere
~ because they happened TO be a, hand
lhen what do sharks eat? Mr. l. c..
Bell of the American Museum has an
s~ered the question. Mr.. Bell, saws
Mr.. John 7. Nichols in Natural History,
examined the stomachs Of more than
thirty tiger sharks.
Most of the sharks were from nine
to twelve feet long, and seventy-six
per cent of them had been eating such
creatures as sea turtles, other sharks
ana large rays and porpoSes. Thirty
essht PER cent had eaten a variety of
smaller creatures crabs, horseshoe
crabs, mackerel, Shad and other fish,
and one had eaten water bird. Six
per cent, probably in their role of scav-
eneerS, had swallowed the bones of
domestic animals; one shark contain.
ed among other material beef bones
and hair, and second. which landed
on the dock still alive, vomited several
small mammal bones, among which
were the leg bones of three sheen.
Ordinary sharks constituted the
largest single item of diet for the tiger
sharks that Mr.. Bell examined. The
stomach of one tiger shark eleven feet
three inches long contained large
piece from the side of the head and
giIlS OF an clevcn-foot hammerhead
shark that was taken in the net with IT,,
In The stomachS of four tiger sharks
were large pieces of black-tip sharks.
One tiger shark twelve feet two inches
long had swallowed a large shark
eight or nine feet long, bitten into seven
or eight pieces. An eleven-foot fell
low contained a whole hammerhead
perhaps three and a-half feet long ana
also several parts of other sharks. In
most cases the sharks that were eaten
appeared to have been first caught in
the nets. Ii is doubtful whether so
many of them could have been captured
IN the open, although the evil tiger
shark doubtless carries with it always
the will TO eat its weaker brethren.

The Banana.

Too many people claim they can
not eat bananas because this fruit
does not agree with them"
The average stomach will digest the
banana all right il il is given the right
kind Of banana. The trouble lies in
the fact that We commonly buy and
eat unripe bananas.
This fruit is fully ripe and ready
to eat only when the peel is golden and
freely speckled with brown patches.
Some people, children especially,
wrongly object to such bananas and
say they are overripe.
If people would confine themselves
to such bananas as these there would
be no bowel disturbances, as the green
banana is apt to produce.
Furthermore, experiment has shown
that the sugar in ripe banana is very
completely absorbed from the intestine
and made use OF by the body.
On the other hand, If we eat bana-
mas not fully ripe the starch OF the
fruit has not been as completely chang
ed into sugar and the food substances
Of the fruit are not as available for The
body.
The banana has been called "the poor
mans fruit" because it is always in
season and readily obtainable at a
reasonable price.
When we examine into the compost
ton of fresh fruits we find that the
banana has greater food value than
any other common fruit, its nearest
competitor being the grape.
However, it is too bulky and con-
tains too little protein and energy to
permit its use as the sole article OF
diet.
A man OF average size would have
to eat between 80 and 90 bananas
daily to satisfy protein requirements.

WHAT KIND OF LAxATIyE"
No. 4

The right kind of laxative will often re- lieve the condition that causes so many people to have sick headaches. indigestion offensive breath and pimpled or sallow skin when caused by the decay of food in the body.
 Many people who suffer from chronic constipation try one laxative after another thus weakening the intestinal muscles so that medicine taking becomes a habit
 The right laxative not only removes the poisonous matter but strengthens the sys- tenn to do its own work.
 Do not use laxative like castor oil or purgatives like salts which merely do the work which the bowels should be strength ened to do for themselves. Many medical authorities say that the continued use of al laxative like castor oil frequently leaves a person more constipated than before
 Use a laxative like Lentho Litate which contains medical ingredients which gently stimulate the liver and then tone up the action of the intestinal muscles so that they will be able to function naturally.
 If you are run down, nervous, half sick, give Nature chance by getting rid of the toxic poisons that injurc your health and sap your mental and physical powers.
