He rose to a position of af- fluence and with his acquisition of | wealth he looks down upon his fath- | er. The scenes between the father and son are highly dramatic.

The entire action of the | play transpircy within twenty-four hours and every minute is chock full of action that holds the wrapt atten- tion of the audience. There will be matineces every day. Thursday, Friday and Saturday. | “MONEY” IS NEXT BIG FOX PICTURE The program at IFox's for the first two days of this week carries with it an abundance of good things and one hase only to glance casually over the list of attractions to be convinced of this fact. The big feature photo-play is “Money” a powerful and spectacu- ! lar production from the Shubert stu- dios featuring a strong story of love, | labor and intrigue with a cast of Broadway favorites that play their re- | spective roles in the most finished { manner. No expense seems to hav cos tuming of this photo-play both in the matter of properties and big cast in the staging of the riot scenes. The schooner plunging in the waves is a beautiful sight, the backgrounds are xquisite and the tinting of the scenes is simply great, and the struggle of two men waist deep in water is most remarkably rea and thrilling. The production is in five parts, and deals with John Maxmillian, an eccen- tric old millionaire with a penchant | for Orfentaism and medaevalism which expresses itself in' the costum- | ing of his great retinue of servants. | He is, of course, a grasping old skin- | flint who has ground his employees | at the steel mill down into the dust. | Despite the pleas of his young super- i intendant he continues overworking | his help until they determine to strike for more pay. The story progresses j with remarkable speed, tense, highly interesting and dramatic until at the climax one is given a real treat that will be long remembered. In conjunction with ‘Money” a two reel Keystone hilariously funny |. comedy will also be shown, having in store in its two thousand feet a great many laughs and also today’s “Pathe Weekly” showing the most important | scenes from the theater of war as weil { as the most important happenings the | past week in our own countr; Scenic Theater .

She has very shrewd eyes, this plain- featured ‘“Ma’ Sunday, and strength and kindliness are found together in her face. She wears silk dresses now, and, when she goes out, a seal- skin coat, but they don’t hide the | fact that she is ‘“just plain folks,” as | she confesses to be.

If she says it is all right all the logicians in the world couldn’t keep me from doing what she says. T tell you T would rather depend on her intuition than the logic of a college full of highbrow divines. But ““Ma"” Sunday would take none of her usband’s glory for herself. “There are people who say that the credit is mine, but it isn’t,”” she depre- cated. “I just haven't stood in the way of the Lord, that is all. When we found out that the Lord had work for him I made up my mind to do all T could to help by looking after my ‘nusband. There is many and many a woman who has kept her man back by standing in the way of his progress. Wives Must Guard Big Men, “I think that it is the duty of all women whose husbands mean yme - thing to the world to look after ithem and make their husbands’' welfare and needs their own interest. It is far more important to the world that I look after Mr, Sunday and keep things from annoying him than that I try to do something for myself. And I know how to look after him, too,” she nodded her head aggressively. “When it §s to his interest T know how to ‘No* very definitely.” Just then Rilly Sunday's secretary was heard whispering outside the door: “There’s no use agguing with me. If you can get by ‘Ma’ Sunday, you can see the boss,” came in per- fectly audible tones. .‘Take a tip from me. Just talk to ‘Ma’ about it, because what she says goes with the boss.”” Then there was a knock at the door, and a determined, spec- tacled vouth walked in and asked to see the evangelist. “Ma"” gave just one look at him and gently hut firm- 1y sent him away. z " During his stay in Philadelphia thousands of persons have sought private interviews with the revivalist.

Later on, when there is a boy of school age it developa that he had fled from England not because he was guilty, but because the wicked Earl whose sin he assumed, had confessed on his death bed. The Englishman had cared for a sunny- haired English girl “back home,” but this thought had been resolutely put behind him. However, he planned to send the boy to England, to be edu- cated for the title which he would have to carry. The affair is solved with Indian finesse by the squaw, who incontinently makes way with herself, leaving the squaw man free to return to England, take the title and marry the girl of his choice, whose hair, by the way, had not been changed by vears of waiting. Mr. Hollingsworth will be seen in the name part, Miss Skirvin will play the English girl and Miss Moore the quaw. FREE ADVICE T0 SICK WOMEN Thousands Have Been Helped By Common Sense | Suggestions.

And that wa with which it was uttered Why uld one he proud of a prejudice? Especially one that deprives one of pleasure? Yet peoplc nvariably are. 1 have heard tha statement at least a hundred times and each time t s uttered with an of great pride. Evidently pride and prejudice go hand in hand today just as they did in Jane Austn's time The Joys of Reading Serials Personally I like to read serials. 1 am reading three at time and they furnish delightful little points of interest in life. Again and again the people in them come into my mind and I wonder what will happen to them in the next installment. 1 speculate as to whether the dogs tor in disguise will go back to being a doctor again, and if the woman who lost her money will learn to make the little home beautiful; and T find pleasure which the veiled uncertainties and vast possibilities of life Iitself (the greatest serial of all) give. Of course it is trying to be forcinly cial moment by a cold-blooded “to be continuec passes and in the balance we have the anticipatory delight of suddenly dis- covering that the time for the next installment is close at hand and the ful fillment of hurrying home with a fair new copy of the longed-for magazine under one’s arm to an open fire and a lovely “read.” Why it almost makes my heart ache to think of all that miss who “never read serials.” The Old Prejudice Against Musie.” is another prejudice in which peopls seem to take infinite pride. I know a girl who adopted this epigram b#fore the music machines were satisfactoryto anyone of rcal musical dscrimins tion. Today when they have reached a point of perfection at which peop! of the finest musical taste enjoy them she still clings proudly to her preju dices and refuses to listen to the most beautiful records. Indiscriminate race prejudice is another fence to keep out happiness To make up your mind to dislike a whole race and to set yourself fipmly against recognizing the claims to friendship or admiration of any mdlaber of that race, however worthy, is to steel yourself against many possibifties of breadth and happiness, as well to do injustice to others.
