On Expecting Gratitude By RUTH CAMERON. A young wife was complaining to me the other day because her hus- band so seldom expressed his gratitude for her sacrifices in his behalf, and her efforts to please him. “I feel as 1f it were all in vain,” she said. The desire to be paid in praise and gratitude for all the good things that we do, and the feeling that our effort is otherwise lost, univérsal weakness. We are willing to give ourselves is an almost generously, but we expect a due return in recognition and appreciation, and we are all subject to moods of revolt when we find (as we invariably must) Let me tell you, Reader Friend, Much a mood. To take down the biographies from our bookshelves, look over lives of some of the men who have humanity, and see how little reward that we do not get it. what would be a good specific against the given great and beautiful things to and recognition they received. 1 will tell you some of the things you will find. struggles, died in abject poverty.

There * is a strong western atmosphere about the piece, which is well constructed and written in a fashion that pleases.- The dialogue is crisp and there are a number of amusing situations; Mr. Belmont plays the part of the bad cowpuncher in skillful fashion, while Mr. Darrow takes the- part:of ' the ‘broncho-busting hero, an interesting type. Miss Belmont also interprets the role assigned to her with com- mendable skill. During the action of ' the story musical selections are inter- spersed, Miss Belmont's singing of “I'll Miss You Most of -All” finding special favor. The act 1s well staged, - Jthe drops and other scenic accessories ‘making the stage a real western pic- ture. s % Judging from the reception given by “first nighters” the act of the Regerit Trio is bound to be popular all week. These young men are real harmonizérs and' entertainers of the first order. One of them, appearing s, Dblackface, injects considerable ., humor into the act and also does some daneing that is sure to’ win the ap- proval of the audiences. The tenor solo, “A Game of Love,” and ‘The Angeélus Is Pinging,” are two of the most popular numbers in their re- pertoire. Dainty Babe Anderson captivated the audience last evening by her dainty, lithesome dancing and her “wonderful violin playing.

A woman vanishes under the very eves of her companion. Subse- quent revelations through the moon- | stone bring to light the truth. THe woman's daughter, left alone in Al- glers, is glad to-leave the scenes of terrible experiences as the bride of a man who helped her solve the mys- tery. Maurice Costello plays the leading réde, and is supported by an excellent cast of ‘the Vitagraph players. The Univeérsal part of the program is a 3-act drama of love, intrigue and mystery entitled “The Secret of the ‘Well.”” Through its entire 8,000 feet of film runs a vein of mystery that is astounding and for the lovers of detective stories this' feature will eclipse in excellence any seen here- tofore. The balance of the bill is made up of the very best comedy reéls from both the Universal and Asso. clation studios and taking the pro- gram as a whole it is safé to say that it will be one of the most enjoyable ones offered at Fox's this season. DISCLAIMS ANY RESPONSIBILITY. ‘Washington, July 7.—President Wilson has notified the principal Bu- ropean powers that the United States disclaims any responsibility for the statements regarding Albania attri. buted to George Fred Willlams, American minister to Greece and Montenegro. The president refused to discuss Mr. Willlams’' resignation, but it was understood it had not yeét been received. WHEN AND HOW THE BODY POISONS ITSELF The underlying cause of much head- ache, particularly migraine, or sick head- ache, bilious attacks, vertigo, or dizziness, is intestinal auto-intoxication. This pro- cess, reécognized only in recent years, is | the sbsorption into the bloed of poisons roduced in the intestines from the resi- ue of f60d. The two most prominent factors in causing this condition are constipation and excessive meat eating. 1t canthere- fore be largely avoided by clear away the fermenting residue of food which is generating the poisons. Pinklets, the new laxative, are admir- ably suited to protect the body sgainst the dangers of auto-intoxication for they gently assist nature and do not gri Harsh purgatives leave the ;ymm in & worse condition than they nd it but Pinklets give just the stimula- tion to the organs of excretion that is needed to produce natural action and if the{ are used regularly for a time they will really correct constipation.

Albany, July 7.—Malcolm Gifford, Jr,, is under constant guard at the Albany county - jall, Sneriff Peaseley | announced last night. This precau- i tion is taken because of the changed demeanor of the prisoner. The sheriff says he has lost his nerve and is cheerful only after visits from his relatives. A nail flle which young Gifford had in his possession was taken from him yesterday. The sheriff said he thought it best to search Gifford and finding the file took it from him as a matter of pre- caution, ‘“He acts as though he was thinking hard,” said the sheriff, “and is very serious, which contrasts with the air of confidence he displayed until the close of his trial."” District Attoyney Alexander de- clared yesterday that he would try Gifford agalin in the fall. He belleves that the vote of seven of the jurymen for conviction of second degree mur- der at the first trial leaves no other course open to him. BEST PLACE FOR CHILDREN. President of Swarthmore Jauds Work of Educating Future Citizéns. St. Paul, Minn., July 7.—"Given a cultivated, trained teacher of sound mind and body, who goes to work at peace with God and man, the school will be the best place in the world for the growth of the child in practical righteousness and Ameri- can citizenship,” sald Joseph Swain, president of Swarthmore college, and president of the National Education assoclation, at the first general ses- sion of the association’s annual con- vention here yesterday. A telegram from President Wilson to President Swain expressing regret that public duties made it impossible for him to attend the meeting was read at the general session. The message sald in part: “Thoughtful people all over the country follow the Aeliberations of the National Educa- tion assoclation with genuine inter- est. The problems of education are really problems affecting the national development and national ideas. 1 think that no one long assoclated with the profession of teaching can have failed to catch the inspiration of it or to see how great a power may be exercised through the class room in directing the thinking and the ambition of the generations com- ing on, or can have failed to realize that nothing less than a comprehen- sion of the national life is necessary for a teacher for the great task of preparation and adaptation to the future that education attempts.” PLANNI VACATION. Washington, July 7.—President Wilson is planning a trip on the presidential yacht Mayflower later in the summer, probably in August. Outing Clothes Should Be Simple and Comfortable A Very Good Looking Sport Chinchilla—It Has Long Coat Can Be Made of White Sleeves, Turnback Cuffs and Large Self Covered Buttons. The principal requirement of out- ing clothes is that they be simple and comfortable, and for this reason the mannish shirt continues to be worn by smart women for all kinds of sports. A well cut and excellently tailored one observed today was made of China silk, with attachable collar and turn back cuffs. A small pocket on the left side completes this waist. Practical Pocketed Skirts. A skirt suitable to wear with the waist just described is of white ra- tine, with two small pockets conven- iently placed on the sides. A belt of the material trims this skirt. White golfine skirts also are very smart for sports wear. They are almost identical in appearance with the one just described, except that they have a wide belt of the mater- ial, which comes high at the waist and is fastened with two pearl but- tons. White Chinchilla Coat. A very good looking sports coat is of white chinchilla. Its very big- ness is attractive, yet it possesses the necessary smartness of line. It is made on English lines, with long sleeves, finished by turn-back cuffs and large self-covered buttons. On a- damp, chilly day the revers may be buttoned over, closing the coat (o the throat, and the broad collar may be turned up around the neck. Two big pockets, one over each hip, are very convenient and add to the com- fort given by the coat. The back is trimmed with five large covered buttons, and in the front the coat 18 ‘closed in the same manner. The coat comes in white only. To complete this outfit a conserv-| ative Panama with a medium sizo crown and rolled brim can be worn. ! ' Smart Boots and Shoes.
