EHow Cora and David Temple A STORY YOU OAN BEGIN AT ANY 1IMB Her Side---and His Solvea Their Marital Problems By ZOE BECKLEY Walt looked up curiously at Janet's | paradox. “You're going to help Roy Nicoll to forget you by working for him again?” he asked. “Yes,” Janet said, thoughtfully. Most 6f us think only of ‘out of sight, out of mind. We forget that there is also the absence which ‘makes the heart grow fonder.” I think one of these holds true for men; the other for women. But if there are any illu- sions to be killed as an aid to forget- ting, absence is the surest way to keep them alive. “Roy thinks I am essential to his happiness. I am not. I am only use- ful—or ke thinks so—to his magazine. If I refuse to go back to the job, even for a time, he will have difficulty in getting some one clse in my place. Oh, 1 don’t mean that he can’t get any one as able. Tt is only that, he thinks so.” “Well, if I don’t stay on the maga- zine while he is in Europe he will think he misses me. But he will be only missing my work on the maga- zine. He wont distinguish, however. He will be nursing the illusion that it i§ the woman, not the worker he is de- prived of. Don’t you see? But if T keep on with the work while he is in Burope, he will have the bother of the magsazine off his mind—please don’t think me conceited, Walt. I am only telling you what he has repepted to me often. Well, having the maga- zine off his mind, he will have most of me off his mind. And I have no fears that Europe, travel and his own efforts will fail to obliterate the rest of me from his thoughts!” ‘Walt nodded. “You're the doctor dear,” he said. Janet sat down and replied to Roy Nicoll’s letter: “Dear Roy—Certainly I want to stay on with the magazine while you are in Europe. If you persist in the de- in this case, What a Woman Remembers lusion that 1 am indispensable to the magazine, there is only one way to cure you of it. I will stay on and, with all the intention in the world ot being perfect, I will undcubtedly make the average score of mistakes. Then you will find out that I am only hu- man and average. Whereas if [ left the magazine now, you would sigh at every mistake wy successor would make and think of how superlatively well I would have done the job; where, perhaps, in reality I would have made the same mistake, if not a worse one. “So run off to Europe and play, if you can find it in your heart to play in that world of the wars horrors. Try to forget the magazine and its editor for a time. You will find the forget- ting easier than you think, I know. You're a man, and women and all that pvertains to them are only' a part life to men. “It is different with a woman. She always remembers a man has once offered the best in himself to her. There ever after he belongs to her, if only because of the fine tribute he has paid” her. She will always wish him well after that, and try to help her wish come true. “I shall never forget that you have done it. I shall always remember that at a time when I was mest helpless | you were most helpful. Yes, Roy, a woman always remembers a man who reaches out the steadying hand and says the right and gentle word when she is adrift and panicstricken. “We have gone through much to- gether, you und I. Life has plowed a deep furrow in our hearts, has it? Well, all the finer the soil for a good, deep friendship! Only this time it will be a friendship that has weathered storms and been stripped of all but the soundest growth. Will you help har vest the good grain? Your friend, “JANET.” BY RUTH OCAMERON SIDE TALKS H Low Lights In my paper the other morning, I observed that a woman lecturer on home decoration laid down a set of rules for making the home attractive. Briefly they were as follows: “Use plain wall paper if you going to have pictures, “Use slip covers for are upholstered furniture so that you can wash them. | “Don’t and sideboards. crowd mantlepieces “Don't display family photographs. | “Don’t have lace curtgins. Hang curtains straight and cut the sill for an informal room. “Don’t use Christmas presents un- less they fit in with your scheme. (One wonders if her friends and rel- atives never visit her home and lcok about for their gifts). She Doesn't Approve of Rockers. “Don’t have rocking chairs; Chairs | are not meant for gymnastic practice and rocking makes the onlooker ner- vous.” Except for the last I can put ditto marks under all these rules. I must say I do like a rocking chair here and there except when I meet them in the dark. But it seemed to me that she (or whoever reported her) had left out the most important of all.

Nothing Makes ‘a Room So Unhome- like As High Lights. Of all the things that make a room unhomelike and unattractive there nothing, in my mind, so bad as a hi placed light,—especially an unshaded one, Of course the strain on the eyes in reading or working by such a light is tremendous but 1'm attacking the practice from another angle today. As you pass down the street some night notice the glimpses of rooms you get. Some impress some ag dismal. b How were they lighted? Nine times out of ten you will find that the : homelike rooms were lighted by a {low light on a stand or table, throw- ing a pleasant, concentrated light on the family circle. A Low Light and an Open Fi The low light is almost as sym- bolical of home as the open fireplace. A woman said to me the other day, ‘‘There’s something the matter with { that front room of mine. It isn’t cheerful and inviting. I visualized the room and knew in .a minute,—it has a chandelier lght. Sometimes when I catch glimpses of rooms that might be made home- like by a low light I feel as if T must g0 in and tell their owners, But so far, as doubtless you'll be glad to know, I never have.

S— fi Theater Goers and Womel; Readers NAYLOR PLAYERS IN SEASON’S SUCCESS' Great plays, like everything else, are sometimes the result of environ- ment. They are produced from sur- roundings that are conducive to greatness. Such is the case with ‘“The Trail of the Loi®some Pine” playing this week at the Lyceum. John Fox, Jr., wrote the book from which Eu- gene Walter evolved this play John Fox lived for many years in the Blue Ridge mountains on the ginia- Tennessee border line. He knew the people woh lived there as well as he knew life. There he discovered *“June” Tolliver the central character in his romance. And in June he found a girl so unlike other girls, people of this century know that she was at once a creature new to America. The Walter Naylor players by their production of “The Trail of the Lone- some Pine,” have added to their glory. Nor have they diminished in any way the glory that surrounds a play presented by some of the great- est theatrical organizations in the country. 411 who have seen the pro- duction grant it is the best effort made in the local field of tlreatricals for many moons. Miss Virginia Perry to whom has been allotted the part of “June” is particularly adapt- ed to play the role on account of her histroni¢ ability and her youthful in- fluences. She was born and rearved in Virginia and knows the manner and character of the people in the Old Dominion. Better, she has a wonderful natural dialect that par- ticularly suited to the playing of | Zune. Sharing some of the honors with Miss Perry is Miss Dorothea An- tel who is cast as “Loretty” Tolliver, the little cousin of June. Both Miss Perry and Miss Antel must appear Lon the stage in bare feet, because the scenes are laid in the mountains and all little girls up in the Blue Ridge country go shoeles To Walter Naylor who has directed the production of “The Trail of the Lonesome Pine’ there must go an in- finite amount of praise. He has cast the members of his company ad- Philip Quin and Ralph engineers who seek their in the war-like camp of the 'follivers, have never had better op- portunities to do better things. The same applies to other members of the company, notably Miss Margic Dow. CORDIAL WELCOME TO { IDOL OF YESTERYEAR Recalling with a good deal of ple ure the days when they lined up out- ride the theater for more than an lhour hefore the hox office opened to see him in . a . melodramatic *“ ten- fwent-thirt ” the plaveoers of the city are turning out in large numbe: this week to give a well deserved wel- come to Corse Payton, whose name o a household word in New Eng land a decade ago, when he was f3 mous as matinee idol, and who is now appearing at Keeney's where he tops the vaudeville progrm.‘ Pay- ton still possesses that peculiar charm which made him so popular with theatergoers the world over and in the sketch which he is now present- ing, he demonstrates his power over the emotions of Tils auditors: The s is a part of Willard Mack’s great play, “Kick In” and it is splendidly pr sented by Mr. Payton and his asso- ciates. He is supported by Edna May Spooner, William Slider and Jay | Elwood. Pavton enjoyed more popu- larity in his day than any other actor of his class and in New Britain as well as other cities his admirers are legion. - There are other good acts on this week's bill and the show on the whole is above the average. Besides the vaudevlle there are iwo big photoplay features, one of which, Mary Pickford in ‘Less Than the Dust,” is a show in itself. This picture is the $300,000 feature which has attracted nation-wide attention. It is in eight reels and is the biggest attraction in which the famous little star has appeared.

Your doctor will tell you ninety per cent of all sickness comes from inactive bowels and liver. Dr. Edwards, a well-known physician in Ohio, perfected a vegetable com- pound mixed with olive oil to act on the liver and bowels, which he gave to his patients for years. Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets, the sub- stitute for calomel, are gentle in their action, yet always effective. They bring about that exuberance of spirit, that natural buoyancy which should’ be en- joyed by everyone, by toning up the liver and clearing the system of impuritics.

Millions ot folks bathe internally now instead of loading their system, with drugs. “What's an inside bath?” you say. Well, it is guaranteed to per= { form miracles if you could believe these hot water enthusiasts. There are vast numbers of men :and women who, immediately upon arising in the morning, drink a glass, of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it. This is a very excellent health measure: 1t kidneys and the thirty feet of In< testines of the previous day's waste, sour bile and indigestible material, left over in the body which if not eliminated every day, become food for the millions of bacteria which in- fest the bowels, the quick result is poisons and toxins which are then j absorbed inte the biood causing headache, bilious attacks, foul breath bad taste, colds, stomach trouble, kidney misery, sleeplessness, impure blood and all sorts of ailments. People who feel good one day and badly the mnext, but who simply can not get feeling right are urged to obtain a quarter pound of limestone phosphate at the drug store. This will cost very little but is sufficient to make anyone a real crank on the subject of internal sanitation. Just as scap and hut water act on the skin, cleansing, sweeteming and freshoning, so limestone phosphate and hot water act on the stomach, liver, ’kidneys and bowels.
