a veteran of (he Army ought to know
something about tirst aid, regretted
my caution when 1 saw hitn throwing
me water with such vigor as io i
saturate niv little friend's niirlit dress.
Inside the minute I had named I
was back with a pungent restorative
which I stVt upon the chair by the
i bedside, ready to administer it the
first second I saw thai Mrs. Durkee
was able to swallow. Then I took the
water basin lrom Doeky's hands.
"Do you think you could find the
coffee things in tho kitchen?" J
asked. remembering his justMiable
pride in his eoffee-makin.?. "We
shall need some hot, strong coffee
here. -Ainrl hat did Dr. Gibson say?"
"He'll be here as soon as he can
get out his oar and run over. And
fis for coffee, I've helped All" root it
out too often here not to know where
it is. I'll have some for you pronto "
The Patient Commands
"Turn on the hot water heater."
I called after him as he hurried
toward the stairs. "We'll need hot
water for hot water bags as soon as
yon can get it ready."
"All right. Eeave it to your uncle."
he called back cheerily, and I think
the tone did more to compose 'Alfred
Durkee than anything else could have
done. Alfred loves his mother dearly,
and I saw that this seizure of hers
had done something months of active
campaigning had not achieved made
him panic stricken as a 'nervous
schoolgirl;
The hand chafing and the coM
water 'kept up a minute or two longer
and brought hack my little friend to
consciousness. 'She moaned with pain
as she opened her eyes, and then in
the next second shivered.
"So cold," she murmured, and T
saw that something must be done im
mediately about the soaked night
dress.
"Drink this." I commanded, putting
the pungent restorative to her lips.
"Oh, I can't," jhe said plaintively,
"You must," I returned with deci
sion, and by sheer force of will I put
it down tier. Then I turned to Alfred.
."Bring- nie a pair of scissors and that
heavy sweater of your mother's,"
I said.
"Oh! What, are you going to do""
she asked as he hurried to the bedside
with the articles for which T had
asked.
"I'll make Dicky buy you a. new
one," I said cheerfully, "because he
soaked this one throwing water on
you. "But I've got to set this wet
night dress off you, and this is the
only way to do it."
I had the scissors at the neck of the
gown wlien she pushed my hand away
with unexpected strength.
"Why. Madge Graham!" she said
indignantly. "This Is one of my best
gowns. I couldn't 'troy one like it
again in these slioddy times. You
shan't touch it."
I felt like shaking her, but I saw
that, carrying my point would only
mean a scene which would agitate
her; therefore, with a shrug of mv
shoulders, T turned to Alfred.
"Bring me some heavy Turkish
towels," I said. "I'll stuff them under
the soaked portions of the "gown. That
will have to do until the doctor
comes."

LYCEUM THEATER.
The Lyceum offers tn the people of
the city the biggest bill of the sea
son for the lirst three days of the
week. The popular Marie I oro in
"Twelve-Ten" is the feature picture.
II is a mystery story of the most, baf
fling character. It was absolutely no
similarly with any photoplay thus far
produced. The work of a master di
rector, Herbert Drenon with a dis
tinguished actress and screen star,
Marie Dnro, in the title role offers a
real feast of amusement for the
picturegoers. This' great picture is
surrounded Nby a vaudeville bill of
four big acts. Captain Everests
monkey hippodrome, the act which
is booked for an early showing at
the Palace theater in -New York, is
the headline-. There are 24 monkey
actors and no trainer is on the sjage
during the act. The monkeys per
form the whole act themselves.
Harry Puvk, . America's youngster
song writer is on the bill and he will
play and sing his latest song hits,
lie will win immediate favor with
the Lyceum audiences. The Ped
wicks, offer a song and dance num-.
ber which is bound to please. Evans
and Sidney in "The Painters" and
act which is written for dancing
purposes only will complete the bill, i
athletic prowess, but at the same
time provides htm with opportuni
ties to express his histrionic talens.
The play is rich in adventure ami
thrills and the action is crowded with
exciting situations.
The star carries his audience
breathlessly through the swiftly mov
ing scenes. The many various phases
of New York life of high and low
degree are depicted in live reels of
gripping1 melodrama. '
"The Invisible Hand"' is n earing
its finitfi, the fourteenth episode be
ing presented today. It has, proven
one of the best serials so far shown.
The always beautiful Chester Out
ing, always interesting, will be seen
the first half of this week as well
!is the Fox News from all over the
world.
Four acts of refined vaudeville will
be presented afternoon and evening.
These are to include as a special
feature "Rolling On" in a musical bit,
entitled "On Board Walk at Atlantic
City'." 'Jininiie ', Logue will admix an
exhibition of difficult juggling with a
little bit of nonsense, while "The Ex
plorers" in "The Brazilian Jungle"
suggest endless opportunities for,
Ethiopian humor and Dougherty &
Dougherty will mingle songs, patter
and dancing.

EON'S THEATER
"A' Manhattan Knight." founded
on the novel. "Find the Woman"
from the fluent pen of Gelett Bur
gess, opened at Fox's theater this
afternoon and will continue through
tomorrow and Wednesday.
The star of this swiftly moving
story of New York life is Georgo
Walsh, the smiling athlete who is
rapidly winning the millions of mo
tion i picture enthusiasts throughout
the cou nl ry.
He is supported by an exception
ally well balanced cast. It un
doubtedly is one of the best mysterv
stories presented in this city this sea
son. .
This William Fox production of
'Burgess' well known storv is full of
suspense and contains many excit
ing and amusing incidents which are
thoroughly well handled by the star
and his co-workers.
Walsh, as the hero of the story, is
at all times convincing, and his per
formance is one of the best he has
given in his successful career as a
Fox star.
It presents him at the peak of his
MARY PICKEORR AT PALACE.
America's screen idol, Mary Pick
ford, is playing in her second very
own photo'play, "The Hoodlum," at
the Palace. Critics have agreed that
(his is her best production. Miss Pick
ford is supported by an all-star cast,
and playing opposite her in the lead
ing male role is Kenneth Harlan, who
was quite popular in this city some
time back, as a local stock star.
As Amy Burke, overburdened with
money and luxury as a granddaugh

suddenly switches to that of the t?n

In a. "few weeks she has developed a.

Sometimes in spite of mic a freshly
ironed garment will bear traces of a
slight scorch. It's always a calamity
to have to relaunder anything before
weal ing, but a yellow mark is unsight
ly, to say the least, and something
must be done.
If the scorch is not deep all evi
dence of it may be removed by plac
ing the garment in the sunshine. I
managed to scorch the frc.nt of a sport
waist the oilier day when 1 was ironing-
it. 1 put the waist in a sunny
window and presto in an hour or so
the stain had disappeared.

My Own Hex'iios.
Some women who have lots of un
expected guests are never without a
ham. At certain . times of the year
people in the country are dependent
on ham for meat. Whether boiled,
liked, fried or broiled, ham is deli
cious and nourishing. There is no
meat that works up into .such tooth
some left-overs-'.
Walnut Pudding.
1-3 cup f.mgar.
1-2 cup cream of wheat.
1-2 cup walnuts.

Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets Get
at the Cause and Remove It
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets, the
substitute for calomel, act gently on the
bowels and positively do the work.
People afflicted with bad breath find
quick relief through taking them.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets are a
vegetable compound mixed with olive
oil. They act gently but firmly on the
bowels and liver, stimulating them to
natural action, clearing the blood, and
purifying the entire system. They do
that which calomel does, without any of
the bad after effects. Take one or two
every night for a week and note the
pleasing effect. 10c and 25c a box.

BETWEEN ASYLUM AND PRATT STREETS.
The Gold That
Hangs On
This is No. 5 of d&series of advertisements, prepared by a
competent physician, explaining how certain diseases which
attack the air passages such as Pneumonia, Influenza, Whoop
ing Cough, Measles or even a long continued Cold often leave
these organs in an inflamed, congested State, thus affording a
favorable foothold for invading germs. nd how Vick's Vapo
Rub may be of value in this condition.
A cold is simply an inflamma
tion of some part of the air pas
sages throat , larynx or bronchial
tubes just like a sore is an in
flammation of the skin. A long
continued cold means constant
inflammation and this constant
inflammation frequently weakens
the air passages so that they
become an easy point of attack
tor invading germs of more serious
diseases . A "cold that hangs on,"
therefore, is simply nature's "red
"lag" indicating that there is
'trouble below," and this warning
should never be neglected.
Nightly applications of Vick's
Vapo Rub will aid nature to clear
up that inflammation. Because
Vicks acts locally by stimulation
thru the skin to draw out the
inflammation, attract the blood
away from the congested spots
and relieve the cough. In addi
tion, the .medicinal ingredients
of Vicks are vaporized by the
body heat. These vapors are
breathed in all night long, thus
bringing the medication to bear
directly upon th? inflamed areas.
Vicks should be rubbed in over
the throat and chest until the
skin is red then spread on
thickly and covered with hot
flannel cloths. Leave the cloth
ing loose around the neck and the
bed clothes arranged in the form .
of a funnel so the vapors arising
may be freely inhaled. If the"
cough is annoying," swallow a
small bit of Vicks the size of a pea.
