Princess Mary Ragle Feather, a Sioux girl, has all these qualifications and she—she is unmarried! ‘And what is more, she says she will never marry an Indian. Not that she despises her own people. Far from he is proud of the Indian as and when she attended the Indian school at Lawrence, , and learned to read the white man’s books, her favorite litera- | ture was that relating to the red men |in North America. But Princess Mary E realizes that the Indian formative state so far a tion is concerned. To marry an Indian | brave would mean living in a tepee, performing the hardest kind of man- ual labor, while the buck took life easy, and being shut forever from in- tellectual society. Chief Eagle Feather has no sons and has signified his intention of leav- ing all his possessions to his daughter and his prospective son-in-law. The present task of the Princess Mary Eagle Feather is to convince her fath- er that a white son-in-law would be more desirable, and the success of her | diplomacy would place her in the market for a paleface hushand.

Her last ex- tended engagement in Hartford was as leading woman of the Hunter- Bradford Players; since then she has steadily climbed the ladder of success to the top.

Many times I loaked back to that night when I had lain sobbing on my bed fighting the demon jealousy, and gasped in amazement at my own folly. That evening had ended in Dicky's arms on our own moonlit veranda, and ever since he had been the roval lcver of the honeymoon days which had preceded our first quarrel. Il wondered vaguely sometimes if he had guessed the wild grief and Jjealousy which had consumed me on that night, but if he had any inkling of it he made no sign. Grace Draper had gone out of our lives temporarily. If I had needed reassurance as to Dicky’ real feeling | for her, the manner in which he told | me the news of her going would have | given it to me. “Blast the luck,” he growled one evening, after reading a manuscript which he had been commissioned ta illustrate. “Here's something I'll reed Draper for, and she’s 200 miles aw I ought to have known better than to let her go. The tone and words were exactly what he would have used if the girl had been a man or boy in his employ. | Fven in my surprise at his news I 1ecognized this, and my heart leaped exultantly. I was careful, however, to keep my voice nonchalant. “Wh has Miss Draper away?” T asked. “Oh, that's so, T didn’t tell you,” he Teturned carelessly, looking up from the manuscript. “Yes, she went two days aga. She has a grandmother, or | aunt or old party of some kind down in Pennsylvania, who is sick and has sent for her.

Under other circumstances the cal- lousness of this speech, the ccarseness 1 0f some of the expressions, the calling of Miss Draper by her surname would have grated upon me. But I was too rejoiced both at the girl's departure and the matter of fact way in which Dicky took it to be captious about the language in which he couched the news of her going. “The Real Reason.” “Grace Draper is gone, is The words set themselves to tune which lilted in my brain. T felt as if the only obstacle to my enjoy- ment of our summer in the country had been removed. How I did revel in the long, heautl- ful summer days! Dicky appeared to have a great deal of leisure in contract to the days crowded with work which had been his earlier in the spring. ach year T work like the devil in the spring so as to have the summer, June especially, comparatively free,” he explained one day when I had commented on the fact that he had been to his studio but twice during the week. T had dreamed in my girlhood of vacations like the ono I was enjoving, Lut the dream had never been fulfilled Lefore. Dicky had fixed up a tennis court on the grassy stretch of lawn at the left of the house, and we played every day. Two horses from the livery were brought around two morn- ings each week, and after a few trials T was able to take comparatively long rides with Dicky through the exquisite country surrounding Marvin, Our motor boat trips were frequent also, though Dicky had found that it was more convenient to rent one when he wished it than to enter into any cwnership arrangement with any one | else.

Heading the list lis the William Fox super-feature “The Man From Bitter Roots,” featur- ing the greatest photoplay favorite now appearing before the camera, William Farnum. Wherever films aie shown the name of Willlam Farnum is known. No one can know him without liking him. He is big, manly, whole hearted: he is also kind and considerate. He can be as gentle as a lamb or as fierce as a lion, at a woment’s notice. In his latest feature, under the Fox banner, “The | Man From Bitter Roots,” Caroline | Lockhart's story, he has a rale for a man of virility and strength. This is |a story dealing with mining con- | | @itions in the Northwest, and weaves into the v of three persons. | The hero is a miner, Bruce Bart,| plaved by William Farnum, who | { battles against great odds, to achieve | the happiness that is his by right. His| fight is practically for life or death. | He emerges victorious. The feature is | i well staged and the supporting cast is exceptionally strong. In addition the | Pathe serial story, The Iron Claw, will Le shown. As this serial draws to a | ! close the interest in the personality of | the Laughing Mask increases and | “Who Is He"’ seems to be the topic of conversation among most of the movie fans at the present time. As a special | attraction the Pathe latest war news | { will be shown at this hause every | Wednesday and Thursday in the future.

One says to the other, indicating the next table with a motion of his head: ‘I guess we picked the wrong table.” The Other, looking in the direction indicated, where a very pretty wait- ress is ostenstatiously flirting with a tableful of men: “I should say we did. But I don't know as we would have been any better off over there under the circumstances.” The One: “Well, we'll have to come here again by ourselves.” The Other: “By the way, see that little peach they've down at the news-stand 2" The Other: “No, I've been getting my paper from the boy at the corner: but that will be all off now."” A little later there enters the res- taurant a woman no better looking than either of the wives.
