That's tho trouble with the whole

If you tnlk nil nlarht."

He grinned reluctantly. "Oh! You
know what I menn, perfectly. But I
think you're rlTht In this particular
case. Thla eertnlnly is the most com.
forlftblrt place I've seen In a long time.
OIvisa me the wlllira to think of sroing
out And opening up that shebang of
ours. I say. Madge, can't you tell Jim
nd Intl whnt to do. and j-oti and I
go to nn apart-fnt hotel here In the
city until th place Is dismantled?
You'd have all your time, then, to look
up plaeea. I'm jrolng to be ho busy the
next few eek.s with ordera that I
don't know where I'm getting off. I
ought not to upend the time commut
ing out to Marvin."
"If you were looking for a furnish
ed apartment with a trained maid,
now," Lillian said demurely. ". could
recommend this one very highly."
The amazed look which crossed
Dicky's face wna ludicrous.
'What what do you mean?"
he stammered.
"Why, I've been wantln? to get Mar
lon away from the city for some time,
twit didn't see how I could go far, my
self, and Madge assures me that you
, mother and her father would be de
i light-V to have Marlon down there for
a few week. So I'm going to send
her down ta a day or two, and then
I m goln hoi- bunting In the su
burbs. I can sublet this apartment
for Wthlng I have the nerve to ask.
for a month or five years, when I
finally want to give It up. So If you'll
stay here. Dlcky-blrd, It'll be a god
Lrtid to me. for Betty would be wild If
she didn't have somebody to cook for.
Madge and I can divide our time be
tween Marvin and her with trips, on
the side in search of homes for both
of us."
For a tens second I wondered
whether her ruse would succeed. Bui
we were not long left In doubt. Dicky
rose, walked over to Lillian's chair,
pulled her to her feet, and gave her
a mighty hj and a smacking kiss
that almost could have been heard In
the street.
"You're always the little life-saver,
Lil, I'll tell the worl!" he excaimed.
"I'm not golnc to stand on any cere
mony In accepting your plan. And I
needn't ask Madge how she'd like It. I
havo vivid recollections of our last
moving from the Brennan place, and
I think her Idea of a perfect moving
day would bo with me about twenty
miles awpry. headed West. By the way,
won't that let me out of going down to
Marvin tomorrow? You can attend to
things, can't you, Hcart-of-my-life?"
he swept me a bow "and T really
ought to get to the studio."
I had hard work to conceal my re
lief and exultation at his- proposal,
even a.n I demurely assented to It. IC
he could dismiss the trip to Marvin
that carelessly he war. not as interest

feared.

Dl TOPICAL REVIEW
J
45 MIX. FROM BROADWAY
AT THE PALACE, j
Charles Ray's verson of "Forty- i
Five Minutes From Broadway.' the
George M. Cohan classic which he
has adapted to the screen, in being
kept close to tho original form which
had such tremendous success during
the years of its stage vogue. The
wide popularity of the original Cohan
play and the star'a recognition of its
value in the form known to a vast pub
lic, has convinced Its producers that
the biggest success would attend a
screen version following closely the
lines of the popular stage piece. "Forty-Five
Minutes From Broad-way" is
the first of the star's new productions
to be presented by Arthur S. Kane for
First National releas. It will be
shvwn at the Palace Tuesday and
"Wednesday.
The sponsors of Mr. Ray's initial
picture stressed the point that a too
greatly altered photoplay adaptation
of the Cohan piece was contrary to
the country-wide value 6f this well
known comedy-drama.
The Keith vaudeviKe bill for the
first half of the week features that
classical musical comedy, "Nearly a
Prince," vrltfx Mg clever caat and
special scenery galore. Other acts in
clude Jarrows, the man with the
lemonBro-wn and Taylor In new
songs and talk; and Ross and Foss
In a pleasing musical offering.
FIVE VAUDEVILLE ACTS
n' CORA MOORE,
New York's Fashion Authority.
In a new collection of frocks espec
ially designed by Mood for Pair
Beach there are two harem skir
frocks. As Mood is always ahead o
Mode this may be taken to Indicate
that harem effects are likely to be a
vogue for some time. But the Idea Is
that some new feature must be Intro
duced to carry it.
Rows of fringe, from an inch to
four inches deep, winding spirally
around a harem skirt, from the lowest
one which falls below the hem, up the
whole length or some part of It, is
one of the ne-w modifications, and Il
lustrated Is another.
Here a flesh-colored chiffon with
oval-shaped motifs embroidered in
beads is used with graduated lace
flounces let In In a double row down
either side.
In still another harem skirt & very
full jabot of exquisite lace was Intro
duced in similar fashion, each scallop
of the lace dangling a small pearl
bead.

week. 1
A photoplay unusual enough to lift
It above the (verage - screen offering
and thrilling enough to keep theater
goers Interested Ufromgh every foot of
the picture ha$ been produced by Uni
versal In Harry Carey's latest starring
vehicle. "Bullet Proof." "This picture
is being shown the first half of this
week.
The plot centers about Pierre,
studying for the priesthood. He leaves"
the church and forgets his early re
ligious training when he learns that
his father has been killed by a notor
ious gunman. He pledges himself to
avenge his parent.
On a mountainside, at night, Pierre
comes upon a girl held fast by a land
slide. While he Is trying to save her,
the huge mass of dirt and rocks movec
farther down the slope burying tho
wo completely.
Alice Lake, who was seen last week
i "The Misflt Wife," comes to the
Lyceum the second half of the werjk
n "Should a Woman Tell?" In no
way a problem or propaganda play,
this picture presents the emotions in a
woman's heart when torn between her
desire for truth and her fear of the
loss of the man she loves more than
life Itself. .
OX BILL AT FOXS
The live acts of vaudeville at Fox's
the first half of the week are "all en
tertaining ' numbers. Joe Sheftal &
Company presents a. lively act. It is
a 10 member team of colored enter
tainers with songs, dances and comic
dialogue. Barnes and Harris present
a piano and vocal number, feturlng
"When I Lost You, Mother O'Mine."
These men were co-partners in writ
ing this song. "Oh Gee, (Say Gee" and
a Hebrew character song, "I'm In
Love" are other numbers of theirs
that go well. Renoma is a young
woman, evidently with a rubber spine,
judging from her contortions. She is
also a juggler. Miss Mae Russell has
several good songs and a monologue,
her best offering being "That Irish
Mother of Mine." Lorimer and Car
breyz offer a distinct novelty. They
have a rapid fire selection of songs
and Jokes, all of which are given in
accompaniment to their eccentric
dancing. They dance up and down
stairs, ladders, etc., keeping time to
the jazz of the orchestra.
Ever hear of a man, disappointed in
love who tried to persuade a gunman
to kill him? Owen Moore, in "The
Poor Simp," the feature picture at
Fox's, tries this and has a terrible
time, first trying to get "bumped off"
and ,then trying not. The cause of
the trouble is when, on receipt of bad
news, he deodes life isn't worth liv
ing. A gangster is hired to accom
plish his demise but in a manner un
known to him. The thug agrees
then comes the good news that the
bad news s not really bad news but Is
good news. Moore tries to head off
the gunmen but with no luck at all
until a series of laugh-provoking in
cidents solve tne delema and reunites
the hero with his sweetheart. Other
reels are the bi-weekly Penrod story
a Chester Outing Trayelorue, Episode
Six of Fantomaa and the Fox News.
Beginning Thursday afternoon the
vaudeville will have six big acts and
the feature picture will be ve.rsatile
George Walsh n "Number 17."
CAPITOL
"Bubbles," as joyous ond melodious
as "Not Yet, Marie" and produced
likewise by Charles B. Maddock, Is

twenty in the company of song and
dance artists. "Four Jacks and a
Queen," a splendid male quartet and
a real queen of song and beauty,
Dunbar and . Turner are song and
dance creators; Ted and Corinne
Briton are "The Whole Show" with
their varied offerings and Stanley and
Wllburne in their wire stunts, are
really comedians of the air.

Do You Know a Baby Sick
With Constipation
Tell the mother to give half teaspoon
ful of Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin.
NO thoughtful mother with children
in theTiouse will risk being without
a good, reliable laxative. It will save
many a serious illness, many a'
doctor's visit.
When the baby cries and is fretful,
when the boy hps no appetite and won't
play, when the girl is listless and fever
ish, when there are complaints of
headaches and colds, the mother can
suspect constipation. Give Dr. Caldwell's-
Syrup Pepsin in the small dose
prescribed on the bottle, when you put
the child to bed, and with morning the
ailment will have disappeared,
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a
popular compound of Egyptian Senna
and other simple laxative herbs with
pepsin and pleasant-tasting aromatics. It
acts gently and mildly, and children
take it without objection. A sixty-cent
bottle is enough to last an average fam
ily many months. The ingredients are
endorsed in the U. S. Pharmacopoeia,
and last year American mothers bought
over eight million bottles of Dr. Cald
well's Syrup Pepsin from druggists. It
is the largest selling liquid laxative in
the world; and few cautious families are
ever without it

Address me Dr. W. B. C5aU

laxative-, and it is well to know
