It isn’t the things’ which we need that cost so dearly as to keep most of us dog poor, but the things that we don’t need and would be better without. In other words, it’s the Tuxuries which at once impoverish and enslave us. For instance, take this much discussed matter of eating. It is literally true that a person in good health can keep the human machine going at full efficiency on the merest fraction of what the average American hinks he must spend for food. A glass of milk, a handful of uncooked and uncracked wheat— wheat just as nature meant it should be eaten—and for dessert, a prune or a pinch of raisins, make a meal rich in all the essentials of nutrition and at a cost which is negligible. The same rule of simplicity is tru ities. Clothing, to cover nakedness and se 'tion, can be had for the merest fracti jexpended upon it. In proof, see how |Your camp clothing and how serviceable and co hile for bed ‘a couch as restful as the ed a king’s palace. We, therefore, see nothing ment of the founder of Chicago's Progressive Hygiene club that people can be fed with palatable and sufficient food at .an actual cost, right in this era of frightful high prices, of SIX CENTS A DAY They can be, but they won't They prefer to stuff with expensive non-essentials and to wire indigestion, liver complaint, excessive blood pressure land the other costly sequences of gluttony. Did we say “they do.” We meant “we do.” For we're all in the same boat in this respect. But if Miss Denning’s progressive hygiene efforts can get any considerable number of folks herded toward a saner habit, she'll not need a monument of stone; the value of a result so desirable will compel future generations to call her blessed. . ¢ of other daily necessi e as bodily protec of the sums usually little you spend on fortable it is. downiest contraption that ever probable in the announce s The Kind of Preaching That Counts a notable sermon was preached in ery inmate crowded to hear it. There 1 when professional this occa- On a recent Sunday A great penitentiary. was none of the indifference so common preachers filled the pulpit For the preacher on sion was a convict from the ranks He did not talk platitudes or use the imagery of old ; ries. He said nothing about theology or the conven- ‘tional things about religion. He talked of real life as it had been seen and known by a man who had fallen under temp- peation. He talked as a sinner to sinners, and he talked the e of the craft. 8 is man had bribed a legislator to betray the people. 3 ught, cted and sentenced. HE HAD }HAD THE GOOD FORTUNE TO BE PUT IN A PRISON MWHERE THE KEEPERS HAD HEARTS AND SOULS, ‘AND WHERE THE PURPOSE WAS LESS TO DEAL OUT VENGEANCE THAN TO RECLAIM. He prob- ‘ably wouldn't have made much of a response to cruel ty and cant. But the man within him softened to mercy, faith and “Yove. He decided to take his medicine patiently and start tover again. His talk to the other prisoners was straight from the soul. He gripped them by a frank confession of his own misdoing and by the simple story of his resolve to try to redeem the past. They felt the ring of sincerity in his words and they listened as if bound. : : Such preaching is rare because such experience is un- ‘common. The preaching of men who have not sinned and heen caught and suffered and been builded up on the tomb- ‘stones of their repented mistakes, however silvery or golden, ‘Yacks an essential thing—knowledge from within. q , one with the courage of his convictions.
