STALE BREAD AND SKIMMED MILK.
Rev. Jacob Kuril Says People Should Eal
More Sparingly and Think of Holy Things
The Rev. Jacob Kurtz, known
as the "Housetop Preacher" is
preaching roof sermons in Waynes
boro. He works in the harvest
field during the day and preaches
in the evening.
Mr. Kurtz says the people eat
too much and live too expensively.
He declares he is living on 13.J
cents a day.
His bill of fare is as follows :
Milk (skimmed) one pint each
meal; costs i cent a day,
Three slices of stale bread,
each half an inch th ck, each tneul;
costs per day 2 cents.
Coffee, half cup each meal, costs
per day 1 cents
Jelly, two tablespoon fuls each
meal; costs 1 cent.
This makes a total of OJ cents
a day. But Mr. Kurtz says that
the good farmers around Waynes
boro compelled him to eat a little
more, which costs as follows ;
Two eggs, each meal (farm
prices) 0 cents a day.
One piece of pie, 1 cent
The last named items he class
ed as luxuries and says he did not
need them.
Mr. Kurtz while he has been
preaching around Waynesboro
has been cradling wheat, rye and
oats, and has been one of four to
bind wheat behind a spirited oair
of horses and a modern reaper.
He declares that lie was able to
stand the work bettor than the
younger men, who gorged them
selves with rich foods and then
sold their souls to the devil, curs
iug because the things did not go
right. He says all they needed
was to eat sparingly and thiuk of
holy things.
