The pleasure and profit which Colonel Anderson’s kindness gave Andrew’ Carnegie was a seed planted in very fertile soil.

We must not forget that their influence may become a far greater force than we dare dream oOf. The inspiration of the widow’s mite has helped to build many a beau- tiful cathedral. Colonel Anderson’s humble gift of self and service has helped educate hundreds of thousands, nay, millions of people. Mrs. Browning once asked Charles Kingsley what was the secret his beautiful life and work. He answered, “I had a friend.” We do not know the name of that friend; but we know that we owé much to him, for by his ffiendship he hglped to make Charles Kingsley. “All that I am and ever hope to be I owe to my angel mother,” said Abraham Lincoln. That means that his mother influenced the history of the world. She might have thought it did.not matter whether in her humble corner she lived up to the best that was in her and taught the little country boy to worship the highest ideals of truth and justice, vet it did matter—and not just to a few people but to nations. “Thou knowest not what argument thy life to thy neighbor's creed has lent”—and not only to thy neighbor’s creed, but to the millions of his neighbors whom he may .influence. : Truly the possible power even of the humblest of us is a great and solemn thing. One is almost appalled by the thought of it, and yet we need not be. For after all, it is very simple. Of no man is required more than he can give. Just remember what Canon Farrar says, “The only real failure is not to be true to the best one knows.” Live up to that; give what you have, and lo, the widening circles of blessed influence from - your life may touch the shores of eternity, TR ‘Woman With Wide Girdle Causes People To Stare At Belmont Park All That Saved It From Looking Like Basque-of Thirty- five Years Ago Was Lack of Shoulders and Sleeves —Necklace Should Be Worn on Arm. i EACH PATTERN CAN BE USED OVER AND OVER AGAIN | _NEWES METHOD IN || OLD ENGLISH AND SCRIPT LETTERS Size of Pattern same as above These pa hot irons, with the'usé be trans PATTERN COUPON Friction Transfer Patterns PATENTED JUNE 3, 1913, g ral v or your thum . be used many times. <o For 10 cents and the coupon o this page you will receive an envelop containing two sheets of transfer patterns.

KELLY AND JUDGE Enockabout .Comedians o MR st high class bill, with exceptionally fine photo-play attractions prevented any falling off in the box office receipts. The management has made plans for similar conditions this week and vaudeville lovers will no doubt be well satisfied with the entire program. Belmont, Darrell and company will present as the headliner a comedy sketch which has been featured in the vaudeville houses of New York, Chi- cago and other large cities during the winter. The sketch is said to be ex- ceedingly funny and is generally re- garded as a laugh-producer of first class. Will Carpenter, the famous roller skater, will be among the performers this week. Besides giving an exhibi- tion of his skill in fancy skating, Car- penter will show what strides have been made in roller skating tangos and other new dances. Kelly and Judge, known the world over as vaudeville’s great knockabout comedians, have been billed as an extra attraction. These famous mirth- makers should prove a valuable addi- tion to the program, The Regent Trio, singers and com- edians, and Booth and Leander, the popular eyclists, will assist in enter- taining the audience. Several motion picture features will be given during the week in addition to the Hearst-Selig weekly, shown to- night; the Pathe review, on Wednes- day; “The Perils of Pauline,” Thurs- day and Billy Mace in a new comedy on Friday. CHINESE SMUGGLING FEATURED AT FOX’S “The Yellow Traffic,” four reels of film from the Blache studios, dealing With Chinese smuggling along rough and secluded sections of our coast, is the big feature on today’s program at Fox's theater. Of all the trying prob- lems this government has to contend with, the checking of the yellow traf- fic is, perhaps, the most difficult to solve. Comparatively little is gener- ally known of that evil and this graphic depiction of the activi notorious smugglers will he ly interesting and instructive. The balance of the big photo-play bill includes some of the best and most | recently released comedy and dramas and as a whole two solid hours of ex- cellent entertainment is in store for those who will visit Fox's theater to- day.
