I had heard him rush up the stairs a moment before, evidently up- on receiving my message, transmitted through Katie, that I would not be down to dinner. I unlocked the door and opened it, hoping devoutly that I would be able to keep up the atti- tude J had chosen against Dicky's rudeness, that of quiet cold dignity. here!” Dicky began roughly. “I want to know whether you're real- Iy sick or whether you're simply stall- ing because you're mad. Katie says youw're not coming down to dinnmer.” atic is eminently correct in her statement. 1 am not coming down to I answered frigidly. you sick or grouchy?” The was explosive. I knew my husband well enough to realize that my next words would probably pre- cipitate a storm, and I resolved to end the scene quickly. “After your rudeness of this morn- | ing, I do not see that my reasons for | keeping to my room have any interest for you. But as I really have a head- ache, I must beg you to excuse me.” I stepped back into my room and closed my door. He had done exact- 1y the same thing a few hours before, when I had asked him for an ex- planation of the impassioned love let- ter, written in a woman's handwrit- ing and copied in his own, which had dropped from the hasket of waste pa- per he had so carefully destroyed. The only difference in the two inci- dents was that he had slammed the door In my face, and accompanied with an oath his indignant refusal| to explain the letter, while I had shut | the door quietly, and had preserved | the outward forms of courtesy in my | See High Class Vaudevilie and Photo Plays "HE HOUSE UNRIVALLED FOX’S| foday and Tomorrow } liclous breakfast warm for me, and OF A WIFE GARRISON tion in me, a fear that take me at my word.

Her perceptions were too keen, her sympathies too warm for me to be quite comfortable with her eves watching me. It was an hour after breakfast, when T was still chafing under Dicky's rudeness, that the telephone sum- moned me. T hurrled to it, in the hope that Dicky was ‘phoning his re- pentance to me, something he had done frequently hefore. Rut it was not Dicky’s voice that came to me over the wire. The deep- er tones were those of Dr. Pettitt. “SOULS ADRIFT” ON SCREEN AT FOX'S “Souls Adrift,” the new World fea- | ture which heads the Fox program for today and tomorrow, is one of those thrilling adventure tales that appeals to every one with a trace of the romantic spirit in him.

And It is presented in a most capable manner by that charming star, Ethel Clay- ton, and Milton Sills, who will be re- membered from his recent success here in one of the biggest productions ever made. A most unusual situation develops in the early part of the plc- | ture, when Miss Clayton ,as Flma, finds herself cast away on a desert island in the Pacifis with no neigh- bors but the engineer of her father t, which was wrecked. To in- [ sify her predicament she learns that the engineer is no other than Micah Steele, whom her father had ruined, and to whom she herself had formerly been betrothed. Stecle, he has the upper hand, immediately begins to formu- late plans to avenge himself on the daughter of his enemy. the girl whom he had once loved, but no thought There are all thé elements of the ideal adventure romance In “Souls Adrift,"” from hidden treasure | battles with bandits, the timely rescue of the heautiful heroine in distress, and all that the imagination could crave in the way of excitement. But that's not the only thing on | the bill, for Charlie Chaplin lends | his funny presence to the occasion in one of his big laugh hits, “Tho Tramp,” wherein comedy king, as the impecunious vagrant, has the auda- city to fall in love with an interest- ing Gipsy maid. Of course, his feet get in the way, and help spoil his | romance in a hilarious way. And the | cleventh chapter of the “Fatal Ring” | brings something new In the way of | thrills and dangers.

The less one does the less one wants to do. That is a famlliar bromide. It is also a familiar experience. There is really such a thing as hav- ing too much time. It Takes Her Months to Answer a Letter. 1 have n friend who was married a few years ago and went to a distant part of the country to live. Her friends here miss her and write to her. Sometimes months eclapse be- fore she answers thelr letters. Some- times she does not answer at all When she comes back here to visit we are so glad to see her that we forgive her. She is the kind of a person who somehow manages to make people fond of her without do- ing things for them. People vie with each other for the chance to do things for her. She takes what they give as a matter of course and they are content. You know the sort of people I mean. Nevertheless we do sometimes chide her for not answer- ing our letters. And then sho explains that she cannot find the time. That may not strike you as a pe- cultar excuse. There doubtless are people for whom it is difficult to find the time ot keep up with their corre- spondence (and they are often the people who answer you the day they get your letter). Know then that she has no children, that she and her hus- i | i | i band board and that she does no out- | side work of any sort | And yet she cannot find time to ! write. Pressure of Work Keeps You Up to | the Mark. Truly if want a thing done, | find a busy man or woman to do it. | There really is something in tho pressure of much work that seems to keep one up to the mark. I have found that if T get my work ahead so that T have only a little to | do on a certain day, half the time I | will not do even that liftle bit. T have so much time that I do not feel ‘fl\e necessity of getting at it. Conse- quently I put off getting at it, and by and by the day is gone and my worlk |1s not done. You Depend On Its Being Faster Than It Ts. Having plenty of time to do a thing in is like having a clock fast. Before you know it you miss the train because you are depending on its being faster than it is. Too much time is as bad for fl'\el character as too much money. 1 suppose we ought to pity those who are handicapped with both. But somehow one doesn't seem to. von TRIANGLE THRILLER AT THE LYCEUM For today and tomorrow the Ly- ceum offers the noted Triangle star Louise Glaum in *“A Strange Trans- gressor.” Miss Glaum plays a typl- cal vampire role., Unable to main- tain herself and her boy after her husband’s death, she seeks the pro- tection of John Hampton the surgeon. The growing love for her son in- creases her desire for respectability in her own eyes as well as those of the world. How Dr. Hampton be- comes engaged to another woman and brings his affair with her to an abrupt close, and to retaliate she leads his only son astray, is very in- teresting depicted in this feature, Miss Glaum is greatest as an artist in the selection of her wardrobe. The gowns she wears and the way she wears them, make for all the convic- tion the spectator feels when the made characters of the play fall mad- 1y in love with her at first sight. This is a new Triangle feature and lives up to its roputation as the best pro- duced. On the same bill is the Key- stone comedian Ben Turpin featured in “The Clever Dummy.” Also a new interesting O.
