News far Theater Goers and Wome; R eaders REVELAT By ADELE A Quiet Decision. The morning after Dicky had made the scene about Jack’s letter I awoke with a violent sick headache, such as I have been subject to since child- hood. I lay still, wondering if Dicky would think I was too angry to get up. and get breakfast. I heard him splashing in the bath- room, and then I heard him go to the kitchen door. I thanked my stars that I had carefully put the kitchen and dining room in perfect order the right before. He waited for Then he came to stood ajar. “Are you sick, Madge?”’ His voice was conventional, but he came rush- ing into the room at my answer.’ ‘“Yes, Dicky, I am quite ill. I am afraid you will have to get vyour breakfast at the restaurant.” ‘“Never mind the breakfast, sweet- heart. Tell me what I can do for you. .I’ll phone for a doctor right away.” “Here was the old Djicky, kind, im- petuous, the royal lover. I caught him by the sleeve as he was dashing out to the telephone. “Listen, Dacky. I have had these headaches for years. I know just what to do for them.” “I'll stay at home, then, and take care of you.” The Nurse Refused, “Indeed you won’'t with that cover on your mind. I couldn’t talk to you anyway, and you couldn’t do anything for me. If you will just do two or three little things for me this morn- ing, so I won't have to raise my head from this pillow until about mnoon, I'll be all right. Luckily those cooks whose advertisements I answered will hardly get their mail in time to come this forenoon. Oh, will you telephone that employment agency not to send any one else up here " “But you cannot be all alone here, and ill.” “You do not understand, Dicky. T am not really ill, and if I keep quiet this headache will have disappeared by afternoon. So don’t bother me, there’s a good boy.” “All right, sweetheart. what you want me to do.” “Please put that small here by my bed,” I directed. “Get that small electric plate from the dining Toom and connect it with the socket here. You see I have a ribbon attached to the chain, so I can pull it on or off, while lying here. Fill the small kettle with water and put it on the plate, and put beside the plate a glass of cold water, and a cup with a teaspoonful of tea leaves in it. When the pain begins to leave my head, I always take a cup of tea and go to sleep.” “Don’t you have any medicine?” “Only the powders you'll find in that little lacquered box. If you'll give me one now, and put the others under my pillow with my watch, I won’t have to think of them again for two hours.” The Headache Passes. Dicky gave me the powder and ar- ranged the table. He was evidently unaccustomed to doing anything of the kind. “I am afraid I'm a poor nurse,” said ruefully when he had finished. I reached up my hand and patted his cheek. The pain in my head was very bad by this time. “Run along now, Dicky,” I whis- pered. “I don’t want to talk any more, it makes my head worse.” He bent and kissed me tenderly. “He’s a nice gorilla,” he whispered, “even if he does look as if he had the mumps. I'm sorry I was so cross about Jack. After you go to dinner with him and prepare him gently for the revelation that you have a hus- hLand, T'l1 appear on the sscene, and we’ll show him the town. After all, 1 suppose you would have married him if you wanted him. And you did marry me.” . Dicky’s tone was triumphant, his foce mischievously tender as he went softly out of the door. At the end of two hours T took another powder, and in another hour the pain began to get lighter. With the relief there came rushing swiftly to my mind the thoughts which I knew would come as soon as my brain was able to awell upon them, What was the reason for Dicky’s sudden change of attitude toward the letter from Jack? Was he sincere in accepting my feeling toward my old friend, or was he adopting my tactics toward Lillian Gale? Was he deter- mined to eliminate Jack from my life, as T had planned to shut out Mrs. TUnderwood from his? Was this sud- den cordiality a means to that end? minutes. which several my door, Tell me table over he ' Delightful Short Sea Trips Affording Pleasure and Rest NEW YORK TO OLD POINT COMFORT, NORFOLK & RICHMOND, VA.

Fashion Hnis By May Manton Cheese i | | i 8761 Child’'s Dress, 2 to 6 years. Children’s fashions are very fascinating this autumn. Here is a little dress that is confined by means of a belt, the skirt: and body portion being cut in one and joined to the yoke with sleeves. There ‘are the fewest possible seams to be sewed: .up and the least possible amount of work; frequired for the making, yet the model is ‘an exceedingly smart one. The front and‘ lower edges are finished with hems and the beconing collar can be made of the ‘material as it is here or of embroidery, itred at the corners. Since the sleeves, make a part of the yoke, there are noarm- ole seams and the frock is an unusually romfortable one as well as an extremely Lashiopable one. The material illustra‘ed s white cotton crépe with ring dots of | blue and the collar, cuffs and belt are of ‘white linen. Both the fronts and the fack are tucked at their upper edges, but | {f smocking is liked, the tucks could be, | vmitted and smocking in either white or a’ ~olor used in their stead. |, For the 4 year size will be required 25§ ! fds. of material 27 or 36 in. wide, 2 yds. 4, with 3¢ yd. 27 in. wide for collar, tuffs and belt. : | round her. | comedy | be seen here at tae Lyceum theater, i WILLIAM FARNUM, IN “THE DUAL ROLE FOR WILLIAM FARNUM William Farnum, who plays a dual role in the latest William Fox pro- duction to be seen here and Saturd at the local Fox thea- ter which is called “The Wonderful Adventure,” and is from the fertile tomorrow pen of CaptainWilbur Lawton is des- | cribed by a writer in a popular maga- zine as ‘‘the most unneutral chunk of masculinity’ I have ever met.” He may be an actor, continues this en- thusiastic critic, “but when God made him he molded the actor from the cast of which fighting men are made. All _this is true, although William Farnum doesn't like it. He is any- thing but a “Pug” with a chip on his shoulder, as certain enthusiastic personages have tried to make of him. He is, however, a man who throws himself heart and soul into a “SINNERS” APPEARS . AT LYCEUM TONIGHT After proving to be one of the greatest successes both artistically and financially of a season that was the worst in New York's theatrical history Owen Davis' remarkable pl “Sinners’” appears likely to duplicate the record breaking tours of “Way Down East” and “Bought and Paid For,” for it is a play that appeals to the heart of every theater-goer. “Sinners” is not a crime play, but depicts phases of life in the White Light Belt of New York. Into this | mire wanders a guileless young girl ! from a New England village who is welcomed with rapture, and the play revolves about her adventures and the manner in which she escapes un- | scathed from the pitfalls which sur- ! ners'’ is in four acts, the first of which takes place in a sporty New York apartment, while the other thres are laid in rural New Hampshirz llomestead.

Therc are two big features in addition to the regular service. The leaders are products of two of the greatest screen makers in the world, the Selig and Vitagraph companie: One of them, “The Wheels of Justice,” is a Para- mount attraction and is said to be one of the most thrilling melodramas ever arranged for screen presenta- | tion. It is in six parts and there is a near-sensation in each film. The picture will be shown again tomorrow. Doubling with this attraction will be “Betty in Search of a Thril,” a comedy drama in which Elsle Janis played a prominent part, when it was acted before the camera. Miss .

POMPEIAN - OLIVE OIL ALWAYS, FRESH- PURE - SWEET AWARDED GOLD MEDAL SAN FRANCISCO EXPOSITION Janis is one of the best known cel- ebrities in musical comedy. As a screen star she was successful from the first and in her latest hit she has scored a signal triumph. The Pathe weekly will be another good part of tonight's program. The photo-play in itself is worth more than the price of admission charged. The Keeney management has always shown a disposition to give the patrons of the playhouse real bargains and tonight and tomorrow in addition to the big screen tractions, three first class vaudeville acts will be given. The Il Trovatore at- trio will enter- tain with selections from the mosi WONDERFUL ADVENTURE"” part, which he may be enacting, and | if there is a fight scheduled (and there usually is)—well, Willlam is there with both husky fists. In “The Wonderful Adventure,” however, Mr. Farnum enacts more peaceful roles. As Johnny Stanley, an upright, manly, civil engineer, a master of pen, and Demarest, the broken down dope—fiend, this re- markable actor achieves unusual re- sults. Picture if you can, “Big Bill Farnum,” as a decrepit, tremble-hand- ed victim of drugs; yvet so wonderful is his makeup and so painstakingly has he studied the dual roles that the contrast between Stanley and Demarest is as marked as the dif- ference between night and day. Robert Edeson in ‘‘Mortmain,” a remarkable picturization -in six acts, the latest chapter of eal Of The Navy,” a Chaplin comedy, and the Pathe News with its current events that are always highly interesting will be shown for the last time to- night. Emma Stevens, comedienne, repertoire the primadonna and Osborne “The Lun- Martin sketch, popular operas; will present their atic and the Girl” and Anita will be seen in a clever juggling and posing novelty. “OVER THE WIRE” CLARKE bit of a agreeably missed There was ied couple there.

She Had a Headache, A woman who employs other women told me this little experienc the other day. She had an unusual rush of work and contrived to reach her office at a half hour early in or- der to have all her material on hand and be ready to dictate the moment the stenographer arrived. She even hoped that by some miracle that per- son might be a few minutes early. On the contrary, nine o'clock came and went and no stenographer ap- peared. It was after ten when she finally put in a lelsurely appearance, nonchalantly removed her hatpins and explained calmly, “1 had head- ache.” “If she had only telephoned me,” said her employer, “I would have ar- ranged my work differently- As it was, I waited from moment to moment, expecting her to come in every instant, and you know how a “EXCUSE ME” SCORES BIG HIT AT POLI'S line, and With a laugh in every comedy situations occuring rapid- Iy that the audience is kept in a continual' uproar, “Excuse Me,' the Rupert Hughes farce in which the Poli Players are scoring a hit this ranks with the best laughing of the century.
