As many persons have said of Ellen Terry, “Never before have I seen act- ing,” they may say on meeting Paulina de Ciano, ‘‘Never before have I seen graceful hands.” Severely simple in dress and manner, her hands betray the well-born Spanish woman. Tt is a grace unstudied, unconscious, coming from a long line of nobly bred an- cestors.

As one of the best sellers Rex Beach “The Spoilers” was found chockful of sen- sational action and interest from the first page to the end and that same abundant sensation and inter- est has been even multiplied in the motion-picture with the result that for two hours the spectator is held in a mighty grip of interest that keeps him on the very edge of his seat until the last scene has been concluded.

The Poli Players “HIS LAST DOLLAR.” Mats, 10c, 20c. Eve. 10, 20, 30, 50c Woman’s Place There is a woman in our neighbo rhood who is always criticising onc of her neighbors because the latter is interested in certain civic reforms and philanthropies and gives a good deal of her time to them. “There's scarcely a day,” she frets, “that that woman doesn't go to a committee meeting.” Now the woman in the case has two children who are in school, s has a small easily cared-for home and a competent maid. She do much for the small society of a surburban town she is a woman of con- siderable vitality and it is not all ne eded in her home, and so she puts it into philantrophic and civic work, What possible wrong is there in that? And yet there are many women, of whom the one of whom 1 spoke is typical, who continually criticise the woman with interests outside her home, To my mind it is they themselves criticism, who are often more deserving of The Woman Who S hirks Her Duty. I believe there are thousands of women who are shirking their full duty in not interesting themselves in any work, church or civic or philan- thropic outside the home. I mean the women who are so quire all their vitality. Mind you, I do not mean the wo man with small children, the woman Wwith sickness in the home, the woman whose strengih is so slender that the day's work completely saps it, the woman who has to help support the home as well as run it. Nor do I mean any other cla who has a legitimate within the home for all her energy. But afier all these have heen muster- ed out there still remains a large class of women who have vitality spare and who owe some of that vita lity to =ome goond cause What Are You Dolug to Help the Biz Family?

Now add the raw meat, cov- er and simmer very slowly for three hours, adding, when half done, one or more chopped onions. This cook- ing of the meat in a thickened sauce gives a much richer result than to thicken the gravy just before serving.
