Daring and sensational though it is, it is a play that has created more dis- cussion than any of the present day productions and although its moral is one that every mother should heed, it tells in a straightforward manner a lesson that needs the recital. It is a powerful indictment of the modern fashion to fortify them in the neces- | sary struggle against the evils and vices of the world. This week the Players are adding to their popularity through their pre- sentation of the Edward Milton Royle drama of the western lands, ‘The Squaw Man.” The inter ing story, the unigue and typical situations as well as the comedy lines all combine to make the story gripping in its in- terest and entertaining Mr. Hollir orth and Miss Lestina received at this afternoon’s ‘“get quainted” matinee and it was largely attended, both plavers heing popular and the event f{tself already estab- lished, by af- him the unique | plays of | the | a | | tractions today’s ! many PLAY, NEXT AT POLI'S| the sombre | FFebuary with of " Ash 16, dawn Lenten and Wednesday the weeks begin. | The traditional pancakes | sShirove Tuesday night were supposed | to strengthen those who ate them for the ordeal of confession, but in latter 1ys the night is taken as an. excuse ! to admit the common pancakes into | the festive repast.

The remarkable story of “Elaine,” written by Arthur Reeves in collaboration with Charles God- dard, the author of ‘“The Perils of Pauline,” has taken an immense hold on all of the motion picture devotees, both in this town and elsewhere, and while the story is of the most fas- cinating kind, it possesses that taint of mystery ‘and thrills running the gamut of all human emotions, that is satisfying in the extreme. Toda, chapter deals with “The Vampire, and shows the very latest methods resorted to by “The Clutching Hand,” the master criminal, in bringing about what he may desire criminally done. The ~ adaptation of “Rip Van Winkle” from the original manuscript used by the immorta]l Joseph Jeifer- son, ig certaintly a most magnificent production. and the appearance of Thomas in the leading role adds much to the artistic side of the Washing- ton Irving classlc that has been read by every man, woman and child.

Frod present ne v “Inside the Lines,™ by Earl Derr Biggers who wrote the story of “Seven Keys to Baldpate.” W hile the play has for its backeground the present war in Burope, it is not concerned with any actual event or character in the struggle. Neither is it a war play: there are no battles in it, and no suggestion of the grim or horrible. The scene is laid at the Rock of Gibraltar, probably the most famous fortress in the world, and the zction is furnished by a trio of daring spies who get “inside the lines” of the fortifications and seek to aid their country by a coup as dangerous as it is striking. The new play will be presented by a company of remarkable strength-— one of practically all-star proportions. Men who are of convivial habits and who retire to their domicile slightly under the weather, can see themselves a:;, others see them, when they watch Signor Monti, the famous Ttalian tenor in Selwyn & Co.s production of “Twin Beds."” prepare to retire. Sel- wyn & Co. are sending “Twin Beds"” to the Parsons theater, where it will have its initial performance on next Tuesday. The engagement is for two evenings. Besides the regular mati- nee on Wednesday an additional mati- nee on Tuesday has been added. Box office ‘sale opens Friday. Some of the musical numbers that are expected to be ‘“hits” of ‘“The Debutante,” the new musical comedy in which Hazel Dawn is to be the star, are “All for the Sake of a Girl,” “The Golden Age,” “Peggy’s a Creature of Moods.” “Call Around Again,” and “The Cubist Opera.” There.are twen- ty-four numbers in the new operetta and those who have heard the score are of the opinion that Victor Herbert has surpassed himself in “The Debu- tante.” The book is by Harry B. Smith, the Iyrics by Robert B. Smith and the music by Victor Herbert. ‘““The Debu- tante” will be seen at the Parsons theater the last half of next week ith matinees on Lincoln’s Birthday and Saturday. with a Saturday matinee, Jr. comedy drama, Zimmerman, will a { | i Native eggs, 33c doz, —advt.

BAS ON THE STOMACH When colicky pains accompany the presence of gas on the stomach the need of a gentle laxative to clear away the ofending food residue is imperative. If the condition of constipation is not quickly corrected a coated tongue, erup- tions on the skin, headaches and back- aches soon show that the poisons have found their way into the circulation. The use of the gentle, laxative pills, Pinklets, will not only banish these un- pleasant symptoms quickly but, if used regularly for a reasonable time, will really correct chronic constipation. Pinklets contain no poisons or harm- ful drugs. Write the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N.
