His mentor was a chap of his own age named Carter, whose father was = judge and a person of influcnce in the town, A hall prospered in a larger city, rising to a position of wealth and influence, He returns to Dan- ville for the purpose of acquiring the charter rights for the construction of a railroad between th: place and Richmond. Marshall keeps the fact of hig former residence in the town a secret. The Carters attempt to se cure the same rights that Marshall seeking. To ccomplish his ambi- tion to secure the rights Marshall sees will be means of retaliation for the unkindnesses he was subject- ed to as a boy, and, finding that ‘his proposed route requires obtaining cer- tain property, he notes an opportun- ity to repay kindness shown him in hoyhood. The council of the city becomes deadlocked over who the charter will be given, and the mayor casts his vote in favor of Marshall. Conspiracies develop and the Carters are exposed and become the victims instead of Marshall. A beautiful love story is\interwoven and the culmina- tion s most satisfactory. “The Stranger” comes with the stamp of “hit” placed upon it by theatergoers all over the -country, “The Master Mind,” with its com- bination of irresistible thrills and suspense, lives up to all the promises of the greatest attraction offered in a long time and large audiences are testifying to its popularity. play next is are : fellow ran about the the humor He principal is a was of was tor- LUNCH SERVED AT POLI'S SOCIAL EVENT large advance sale of s matinee at Poli's was ample evidence that the “Get-Ac- quainted” matinees, introduced by Manager James Thatcher, are to be- come very popular, This afternaon witnessed the first of these theatrical social events, as they might be called. Miss Madeline Moore, the dainty in- genue of the Poli 'Players, and Roy Phillips, the juvenile, are the two who received today. As soon as the mat- inee was over all the ladies in the audience were invited to go upon the stage where Miss Moore and Phillips were pleased to see them and be- come personally acquainted. To make the party a congenial one, Manager Thatcher arranged with a local caterer to furnish a luncheon.

Give the soles of your new boots or shoes a thin coating with the varnish, and set the boots on a shelf with the soles upward to dry.

This treat- ment should be repeated once month, but only one coat, not two, be given. a MANTON ssasseszgasiaii 8509 Dress with Russian Tunic for Misses and Small Women, 16 and 18 years. N Undoubtedly the frock with long tunii is a favorite one. This model flares mo: gracefully and prettily and is arrangec over a two-piece skirt that is closed at thg front. The blouse is a perfectly plain one, and the frock altogether is so simple 1h<11 it is peculiarly well adapted to school and college needs. The combination of muy terials shown is a fashionable one, bu% there are so many good contrasts offerec that there are many variations that be made. It is by no means nece: to mke the entire under skirt of the ma- terial, either, for lining faced toc the required depth is all that is necessary, and that treatment not alone reduces cost, it also reduces weight. Like many an- other model this frock can be made per- fectly simple and utilized for the school- room or can be made dressy enough for afternoon functions, as the material is, varied. In this case it is a school dress. If it were made of charmeuse satin over velvet it would be completely trans< formed.
