Those who saw the big feature last evening were surprised to such a wonderful picture. It is ‘“Paws of the Bear,” in which William Des- mond will be seen as star.

Fate appeared to favor Katherine Sonnot’s plan to conceal the presence of Mrs. Allis in my room until she i could be removed to a private sani- tarium for drug addicts. At break- fast Dicky exhibited only perfunctory athy when T explained Kather- 5 48 by saying she had told me to do | by saying she had a headache, and I had pur her in my own room for better quiet. He was evidently ab- sorbed in some problem of his own, and announced before leaving that on account of an ‘engagement with an art editor” he wouldn’t be home for dinner, would not come home, in fact, until a late train. I my brain and heart had not been so busied with the prablem of dealirg with Mrs, Allis, who, maddened by drugs, had broken into my room the evening before, and had heen thwarted in her attempt to throw acid in my face only by Katherine’s quickness, I should have bestowed much worried thought upon this excuse of Dicky’s for staying in the city so much. Dicky's “Engagement.” It was becaming to be somewhat stereotyped, this “engagement with an art editor.” He had spoken the words so often that they were getting on my nerves. ‘I'ry as I might to avoid the thought, the image of Edith Fairfax, the Virginia art student over whose friendship with Dicky I had worried, would rise before me every time I forced myself to smile acquiescence to ! Dicky’s excuse. I did not say to my- self in so many words that Dicky was deceividg me, that many times “art editor” might be translated *Edith Fairfax,” but a knawing little doubt was coiled like an ugly worm in my heart. I had no time for introspection, however. Dicky’s plan to stop down- town made it passible for me to ac- company Katherine on her projucted motor trip to the sanitarium with Mrs. Allis, and to return before he came back in the evening.

No sooner were we left alone than Katherine went to the telephone.

If you | have-the taxi come to the dining room lentrance no one but the driver will ever know that three women instead of twa entered it.” I arranged it as she wished, and when later Mrs. Allis, veiled to con- ceal the redness of her eyes, and the general appearance of her drug- ravaged face, was assisted into the taxi by Ktherine, with me following, there was nothing unusual in our appear- ance, nothing to excite the curiosity of the driver. Three-quarters of the way to the sanitarium there was a town that boasts of a hostelry of whose fame I had heard frequently. Xatherine di- rected me to instruct the driver to stop there, and then to send him back to Crest Haven, pretending it was the destination we had plarned. “Now, after something to eat. we'll take another taxi from here to the sanitarium,” Katherine said, almost | gleefully. “Then that taxi driver and the long-distance operator will have no real data if they compare notes, as 1 have known them to do in country towns.” To my surprise, Mrs. Allis ate hear- tily of the meal Katherine ordered served in a private dining room, and became quite loquacious on the last] lap of the journey, chattering of every i thing and nothing, with no heed as t whether or not we made her any answer. But when we finally left her after Katherine had made the neces- sary arrangements for her, she made us a sweeping courtesy. “Be sure, ladies,” she said, “that I shall never forget your kKindness.” The attendant who stood at her side looked pleased at this evidence of her appreciation of us, but I shivered as if a chill wind had blown upon me.

Boston, Sept. 15.—The surgicai dressings committee broke all its previous records during the month of August, when it shipped to Europe 990,000 dressings for the use of the Allies. There is a great deal written and said about the unwisdom of husbands and wives trying to live with rela- tives of either. And In that great deal there is, as usual, somne sense and some non- sense. Of course society is founded on the unit of the family and unquestion- ably it is easier to get along pleas- antly when that unit shuts itself up in an individual cell. But that doesn’t mean that, if nec- essary and kind to live with another unit, the thing can’t be done pleas- antly. It doesn’t mean that all ‘fric- tion should be eondoned as something inevitable. In-Laws CAN Live Together Pleas- antly. Some of the friction is inevitable. ! And some just comes from a wrong way of looking at things. I once knew a.man who lived for some years in the home of his wife's people. This household numbered among its members an elderly aunt Menu for Tomorrow Breakfast.

Heralded from afar as wun- doubtedly the best thing that this member of the Farnum family has ever accomplished in his histrionic career, it is even sald by those who know that it is better than his brother’s recent success, “The Spy, which was seen here last week. At any rate, it isn’t too much to expect a corking good picture with such a star and such a cast, several of the best of whom played prominent roles in “The Honor System,” and when the fact is added that “The Conquer- or” is staged by Raoul Walsh, who directed ‘““The Ifonor tem,” there i i | can be no doubt that Farnum’s first production will be a worthy one with which to inaugurate his Standard ac- tivities. The story of the picture has TUFTS VETERAN DEAD, Patrick Byrne in Employ of College Since 1861. Medford, Mass.,, Sept. 15.—Pat, known to thousands of Tufts grad- uates and a familiar figure at com- mencements, will be seen no more on College Hill. Several years of fail- ing health ended in his death yes- terday. Patrick Byrne, born in Ireland, 89 vears, entered the employ of the col- lege in 1861 as “‘college farmer.” For more than half a century, he super- vised the care of the trees, lawns and gardens on the hill. In 1911 alumni, faculty and students presented him with a substantial purse in recogni- tion of the completion of fifty years of service. SIDE TALKS BY RUTH CAMERON Reducing Domestic Friction after I had been there awhile the only way to do was to let alone so long’ as she didn’t inter- fere with me. If I let myself be bothered by them of course the queer things she does would annoy me all the time. But why be bothered if she doesn’t get in my way? I made it plain at the beginning that I wouldn’t stand for being inconven- ienced by her peculiarities. That an- tagonized her at first but she got over it. And to everything that doesn't personally concern me I keep my eves shut.” “But doesn’t it annoyv you when you don’t say anything?” Hc Kept His Mind Shut, Too. “No,” he said thoughtfully, “it did a little at first. But 1 guess I keep more than my mouth shut. I try to keep my mind shut too.” i How’s that for a bit of philosophy? And not just for this situation either, but for many situations. Of course when two families (or even two people live together, theres are many things which each does which must inevitably concern the other. But there are also many things which don’t really interfere— | if you will close your mind to them. How much do you suppose the fric- | tion in homes would be reduced if peonle followed that man’s plan? WL—W that her even Wet tea leaves will drive away ~ — to do with the life and adventures of ! General Sam Houston, that beloved character of history and fiction, and certain incidents that befell him during the perilous days of the early southwest, when the only guarantee of the safety of your saddle-bags was the fact that they were empty. Ruling the toughest district of the frontier, he had a mixed people to control, in- type of outlaw. And what he couldn’t do with his bare hands he did with a shooting iron. Certainly a charac- ter of this sort is ideal for the brawn and bravery of a Farnum, but he was not called upon to bear the whole burden of the work, for there iwere employed to assist him something like eight thousand actors and ac- tresses, thousands of horses and cattle, and all the ammunition that money could buy was sent up in smoke during the most realistic battle scenes that have over been screened. “The Conqueror will have its in- itial presentation at FFox's theater to- morrow night, at which a special program of selected and interpretive music will be rendered by the Fox concert orchestra. LABOR MEDIATOR DEAD. Harrisburg, Pa., Sept. 15.—Patrick Gilday, chief of the state bureau of mediation died at Clearfield, Pa., last sight.

Before becoming a mediator he was a district officer in the United Mine Workers. RETURNS R. R. PROPERTY.
