Stones” the newest play from the hand of Edgar Selwyn will be seen i for the first time in this city at the Lyceum theater when it is produced the week of January 15 by the Wal- ter Naylor Players. It is a story of Chicago and has the tang of the great city combined with the wiles of love rampant and despair rejuvenated. “Rolling Stones” tells of two young men, who, fri an extreme degres of inrpoverishment and desperation make a rapid rise to fortune on the principal that the world owes every- one a living if they have the nerve to take it. Jericho W. Braden takes over the business of Mr. Hewitt, a manufacturer of candy, on the death of /the latter, with the proviso in his uncle’s will that Braden shall marry, the testator's neice. It was M!Dul.&tb,g‘ ‘howeéver, that the wedding | shonld "take place provided the girl was willing. Braden, being already marrled,’ goes to Chicago the better to-earry out the will's provision, and takes a room in a boarding house un- deér ‘an assumed name. The boarding house is'kept by “the girl’s” aunt and there he meets a youth with nerve, but‘no funds, who is being evicted. A railroad wreck at Omaha, leads to fears-that the much valued Braden .| is on board and has lost ' his' lfe. Thig gives the impecunious youth an idea.’, He tries “sticking up” a pas- serby on the'Clark street bridge only. to’find that ' his victim is penniless. The two join. forces. of offense and defense, and the:stray youth is pushed to the front as the -~ much sought Braden. The real Braden enjoys the fun knowing that “the girl” will solve his problem by marrying the im- poster, wealth or no . wealth. The plans of the ‘rolling stones” work splendidly for a time - until Hewitt’'s lawyer begins to be suspictous of the young men who are seemingly mak- ing such a success of the candy busi- | ness. Things reach a climax when they realize their imposition is dis- covered and they attempt to rob the safe only to flnd out that a real buyrglar has been there ~ahefd of them. The situation becomes ~more serious when they are surprised .by the presence 'of the. real . Braden hacked by the police, but their clever wit comes to their aid and enables them to not only clear themselves but win a partnership in the business their efforts have so materially alded and furthermore to win eternal hap- piness for them both in the form of a couple of girls who never lose their confidence in the interesting. young ! | crooks when things look blackest for them. 2 MA‘NY THRILLS IN VAUDEVILLE ACTS Three acts of exceptional excellence form the vaudeville program at Kee- ney’s this week and the patrons are waxing enthusiastic over them. Rach of the specialties has some novel fea- ture to commend it to a vaudeville audlence and there is something about the show that makes it go big with the theatergoers. The big speclalty of the week is Theo The Balloon Girl. The balloon ascension given by the young lady during which she travelers in mid air over the heads of the audience is a spectacular novelty and it is the real feature of the show. The dainty aerialist is accompanied on her tour by two young men, whose ability as entertainers is unquestioned. They sing a number of popular songs in most pleasing fashion and are liber- ally applauded for their efforts. The act 18 from the “big-time” oirouits and 1s seldom seen at popular prices. Selmo, the contortionist, does a se- ries of twisting feats that provoke a great deal of applause. His act is. well staged and the scenery used is adequate. Armstrong, the master banjoist, has another number that is winning popular. favor daily. Arm- strong plays both classical and popu- lar selections on a number of string instruments. Topping the photoplay program for ¢, | tonight will be the Lasky production, 47 | “The Golden Chance.” The picture I 'is a/splendid drama and is acted in ] capable style. Earl Willlams will be i | seen in a new chapter of “The Scar- let Runner.” The week of January 22 has been selected for the showing of the sen- sational fllm, “War Brides,” in which Nazimova is starring.

In children the slightest irregularity of the bowels has a tendency to dis- turb the entire digestive system, and unless promptly remedied invites seri- ous illness. The experienced mother knows that by training her children to regularity in this respect, and when occasion arises administering a mild laxative, she will have little need for the doctor’s services. Mrs. Leo Weigand, 8261 Central Ave., N. 8, Pittsburg, Pa., whose two boys, Frank and Joseph, are shown in the illustration, writes that she has found Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin a most effective laxative, not enly for the children but also for herself, and that she will always keep it in the house to use when nseded. Dr. Cald- well’s Syrup Pepsin is a combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin that acts easily and naturally, with- out griping or other pain or discom- fort. It is pleasant to the taste so that children like it, and is equally effec- tive on the strongest constitution. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin can be obtained at any drug store for fifty cents, and should have a place in every home. It will save many times its cost in lessened doctor bills and maintain the health of the entire family. To avoid imitations and ineffective substi- tutes be sure to get Dr. Caldwell’s Sy- rup Pepsin. See that a facsimile of Dr. Caldwell’s signature and his portrait appear on the yellow carton in which the bottle is packed. A trial bottle, free of charge, can be obtained by writing to Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 466 Washing- ton St., Monticello, Illineois. A STORY YOU OAN Her Side--and His ' How Cora and David Temple By ZOE Nicoll When Roy Nicoll sald, “I'm going back to New York tonight; I'll call Walt on the phone and tell him you're all right,” Janet felt like a person who, making a fierce effort to unlgok a door, finds it entirely unfastened and ylelding. She felt a little ashamed of having had even-the remotest and vaguest distrust of Nicoll. As she thought it over now, she could not de- fine just what she had or had not ex- pected, if anything. Janet only knew that in everything that day—their stormy motor trip to Philadelphia, the meeting of the Fem- inist Congress committee in which plans were discussed for making “her’ magazine first in the field; and Nicoll's delicacy In taking himself back to New York, leaving her comfortably hostgled for the night—he had acted in a way to lncr* her admiration for him tenfold. The one weight upon - her mind seemed now removed. She had mis- judged. Roy Nicoll, she told herself. He was after all Jjust a good friend, straightforward and kind. He was a clever businessman who recognized in hen a clever businesswoman who would make a name.for herself and money for him—and money was his standard of success in life. She had nothing to fear. He evidently had seen the hopelessness of winning her from the husband she truly loved, if, indeed, he had ever held such an am- bition, and with honest sportsmanshin had determiped to give Janet her chance - without making her pay any price save her capable work. The relief of it sent Janet's spirits soaring. She sat down in her well- furnished hotel room and wrote a gay letter to Walt. “Be very nice to Roy,” she ended, “for he .is far from the frightsome vilyun we thought him, dear! When he and I were talking on the vulgar subject of terms today, fancy my feelings when he mentioned five thousand as my salary for the next eighteen months under contract! I had been prepared to pull his offer down to something like that figure from goodness knows what altitude I feared he would suggest. I believe, Walt, that I am golng to be a real bargain at that price! My fingers al- ready itch to get at my work. And my tongue is fairly wagging to be at BEGIN AT ANY TIMB Solved Their Marital Problems BECELEY Scores : those women tomorrow when I attend their congress! Good night, by dear- est, and I pray you are as comfy in mind as I am.” « Janet awoke early after an unbrok- en rest, feeling eager to be at her dutles. She made a genuinagstir at the women’s convention, actually achieving a crisp little speech iIn whioh she told them of the progress she hoped to win with her magazine “Woman” in its broadened and se- curely financed scope. The day passed swiftly and with tri- umph to Janet, who was halled on all sides as “our powerful new lead- er.” At night she was guest of honor at a dinner given by women whose experience covered many years of! campaigning for their sex’s freedom and betterment. Yet Janet held her own. g It was past midnight when she at last found herself with flushed face and sparkling eyes in her hotel room. Therg were telegrams from both Walt and Roy Niooll. Walter's was mere- ' ly a message of love and cheer. Nicoll wired congratulations, having read reports of the convention and her satiffactory share in fit. She could come back next morning, he ®aid, and begin her editorship in earnest. Or If she chose to have a little rest and recreation first, she was to stay as long as anything interested her. Her heart sang as she prepared for bed. . She was pleased that Nicoll had telegraphed instead of writing, and that he had said pleasant, com- fortable things without being too per- sonal or eager for her return. Of the two, Janet felt she was the more im- patient. As she snapped out her light and laid her tired, happy body between the smooth sheets, her mind flew to her home and to Walt. Was he com- fortable? Had he proper food? Was his work going well? Had his latest story been accepted? Was he burn- ing the midnight and later than mid- night current in a mad effort to finish something? Was his fine courage still intact? All this ‘she thought of. ‘What she d4id NOT realize was that her very last consciousness before she sunk to sleep was devoted to thoughts of Roy Nicoll, SIDE TALKS BY RUTH That Exasperating Person ‘We were speaking of conversational awkwardness the other night, apropos of the plah (which I confided to you) of a course in soclal conversation. Someone spoke of the monologist who never gives you a chance, and then someone else quoted Margaret Ossoli’'s cheracterization of - Carlisle. ‘“He does not converse, only har- angues.” The kind of person I mind the most is the one who asks a question and then doesn’t give you a chance to an- swer it.
