Lillian took charge of me the swift practical energy that acterizes everything she does. “Not a word, or at least only one or twa,” she said, smiling as she slipped her arm around me and led me to her wonderful rose-hued bed- room, the one she had kept sacred for her little daughter in the dark days before the 'child was restored to her. " “Now you're going to lie down for a while ,” she said, with the litle air of authority which is.as much a part of Lillian as her features, and which no one ever resents. I knew better than to protest, and indeed I was glad of the chance to re- lax in the comfort of Lillian's care. The strain of my interview with Dr. Pettit and the shock of meeting Dicky with Edith Fairfax had racked my nerves, and I recognized the premoni- tory symptoms of one of the nervous headaches to which I am subject. Lillian removed my outer clathing with char- and my shoes as deftly as the most experienced maid could have done, wrapped me in one of her own warm negligees, and tucked me cosily in bed. “Now for this,”” she said, putting a tablet between my lips, and holding a glass of water for me to drink, after I had obediently swallowed what she had given me. I recognized the tablet as one of the kind Dr. Pettit had once prescribed for my attacks of headaches and rememberd hazily that I had seen Dr. Pettit hand Lillian a small envelope when he was explain- ing to her that I need her care. It was probably a good thing for me that tho pain in my head, which OF A WIFE GARRISON was raging by the time Lillian had gotten me into bed, prevented me from thinking about the meaning and probable consequences. of my en- counter with my husband. By the time the tablet took effect, I was - glad to slip into slumber. “Sce Here, Lil When I awakened the twilight was fast changing into night, and the only light came through a crack in the almost closed door leading into the living room. I heard the murmur of voices at first low, then evidently forgetting caution as their owners became mcre excited. With an ap- prehensive, vet rejoicing little thrill, 1 recognized one of Dicky’s. He hadn’t been as indifferent, then, as he seemed at the restaurant! Then another thought came like a dash of @ cold water. sent for him, I strained my listen. “Well! why shouldn't she take luncheon with him?" “Because she knows how I feel- about him, and -because I had for- bidden her to see him.” Lilllan laughed softly, but there was in the laughter an edge of amused con- tempt. “That’s probably the answer,” said. *“So you had ‘forbidden’ had you?”—mockingly, plosively—*You idiot!™ “See here, Lil—"” my husband began wrathfully, and I heard him spring from his chair. “‘Sit down!""

Now it's my turn to ask a few ques- tions.” “Just a moment.” was lcily polite. “I want to get your position on this. Do I understand that vou approve of Madge's lunching with that man at Ristori's? ‘““And Besides—."” “Of course 1 don't altogether ap- prove,” Lillian retorted, “but it was no crime, and besides I'ra sure there's some explanation of the fact. Madge isn’t the woman to dine with any men but you without some good rea- so.” “I tell you that sawbones has her bypnotized,” answered Dicky, and my heart leaped at the jealous anger in his tones. ‘He's done the dieaway quiet, unobtrusive devotion act for months, and now I believe he's going to South America, to the same city where her father is, and I imagine she thinks he's going to devote his life to the old man.” “You've been showing your wife so much quiet devotion yourself the last few weeks that it is strange she should ! be impressed by any one else,” Lil- lian drawled ironically. WALSH A HIT IN “THE YANKEE WAY” There is nothing quite as enjovable as a real George Walsh picture, and | “The Yankee Way,” which is the present feature of the big Fox pro- | gram, is the best picture that the versatile George has ever made. He | Dicky's tone smiles and licks his enemies with ' equal facility, and goes through more adventures in the little mythical king- dom of Lithuania than ever could: happen to him in the U. 8. A. 1It! seems that Dick Mason—George ‘Walsh—is sent to Lithuania to rep- resent his father in somé cattle deal | or other, but as Dick’s interests are centered more in ‘“poultry” than in cattle, his business is sadly neglected. This, however, doesn’t seem to be of much importance to the plot, as long as Dick has a good time. He sur- rounds’ himself with a select coterie of admirers, including a cow-puncher, a.gun man, and a negro valet, and then the fur begins to fly in all direc- tions. He takes a stab at the toy politics of the principulity ,and finds it quite entertaining, particularly when he meets the princess, with whom he was acquainted in the days when she was a cabfret dancer in Chicago. ““The Yankee Way,” has a typical musical comedy plot, but it is brimful of laughter and comical sit- i yatlons from beginning to end. Another highly interesting feature of the program is the formal open- ing of that much talked of Pathe ser- ial, “The Seven Pearls,” in which Mol- lie King, that dare-devil heroine, and Creighton Hale, are featured. It strikes a distinctly new note in serials, and the scenery and costuming are most extraordinary. The setting is laid in Constantinople, which gives unusual opportunity for unusual characterization. And as for thrills —well, it is safe to say that there has never been a serial since serials were first made, that started off in such a rapid-first manner. And speaking of serials, “The Red Ace” is no slouch, either, for there are a few stunts pulled off in the sec- ond chapter, which is also on the bill, that are hard to beat. Marie Wal- camp is one of those little girls who take the greatest chances in such an easy way that at first sight, one thinks nothing of it. Tomorrow's feature will be “The Guardian.”” in which little Madge Evans, the cutest juvenile of the World Studios, is starred. “The Fatal Ring,” and oth- er superior films will also be shown. DOUBTF FATE. Copenhagen, Oct. 4—German news- papers report that the project for granting additional representation to overgrown Reichstag districts and for introducing the principle of pro- portional representation in the large cities is on the rocks. The govern- ment had promised to introduce a biil embodying this minor reform, but several federal states now object so vigorously to the bill that its fate is doubtful. “FOLLIES” BEAUTY ON LYCEUM SCREEN Dainty Olive Thomas, winsome beauty of the famous Ziegfield “Fol- lies”, smiled and danced her way into the hearts of a big audience this after- noon at the Lyceum theater when she made her initial bow in “An Even Break”, her latest motion picture of- fering, and she will be ready to do the same the remainder of the week. Advance notices of the picture proved to be no exaggeration, as “An Even Break’* measured up to any previous offering the theater has had. To say that it made a hit is expressing facts mildly, for the story and the way in which it was told fairly entranced. Miss Thomas has a right to feel perfectly at home in her role, for she depicts a Broadway favorite just as, in her own career in real life, she is the reigning queen of the Great White Way and ane of the most popi- lar favorites the big street has today. Scores of chorus beauties assist her in the scene at Minot's cafe, a repro- duction of Broadway famous tryst- ing places and throughout these scenes, a thirty-piece Jazz band plays, giving the famous lobster palace a natural appearance. “An Even Break” deserves the re- mark that was once made about it when a critic called it a ‘‘musical comedy in pictures”, only in this case, the play is par excellence, and is really out of the class of an ordinary musical comedy. The story that runs throughout gives the picture a bal- ance, and while the little bits of foolishness that everyone admires in a musical comedy are present here also, there is a tinge of reality about in with the story ever predominating. i If one looks deep enough it is -easy to see that the moral point is upper- most all the way, for while a girl, such as Miss Thomas depicts, may be of light heart and manner, ever loving the frivolous and playing for the applause of the pleasure seeking, love has made its mark, and that mark will stay. And a chorus girl may love, too, though deep may be the rouge, and ever-changing, her mood. In support of Miss Thomas aré Charles Gunn as “Jimmie Strang’, and Darrel Foss as “Ralph Harding.” “An Even Break” will head the bill tonight, and Friday and Saturday. Keystone has just scored another big hit in presenting Mack Sennett and Ethel Teare in a smashing, rip- roaring comedy, . “Thirst”. Contrary to what may be indicated by . the name, the picture is not “dry’, but is one continuous roar, with the audience doing most of it. The latest news ns caught by the camera's eve will be given by The Lyceum Weekly. Many other pictures will comprise the usual Lyceum program always .at. the top of the list.

NOT PRESSED. Mexico City, Oct. 4.—The Mexican foreign office has issued an official statement that citizens of Mexico are not being pressed unlawfully into the American army. The announce- ment was made in answer to reports to the contrary believed to have been fostered by German agents. BY RUTH You would hardly think she would exist in any but the richest classes; the woman who does not go over her bills. " But she exists everywhere among rich, poor and middle class folks. She is the dishonest tradesman’s joy and the struggling husband’s heaviest burden. Of course one may trade tradesmen of whose honesty one absolutely sure. But What Tradesman Never Makes Mistakes? But can one be equally sure that they never make & mistake? I trade with perfectly honest tradesmen. Last night I went over my bills for the past two weeks. with is In one account I found a dupli- cated slip. In some way or other my purchase of a dozen oranges and =a half pint of cream had been charged ltwice. I also found a slip on which SIDE TALKS The Woman Who Does Not Go Over Her Bills the total of the day's purchases had been set down and then added in. It was a small matter (seventeen cents) but the same would have happened if it had been several dollars. Be- sides which, the seventeen cents is as valuable to me as to the grocer and I am not ashamed to ask for it. He Added in the Day of the Month. On another bill I found that the fruit man had added in the day of the month (which happened to be thirty.) I wanted that thirty cents too. These are small items but on one bill this summer I found some lum- ber charged up at so much the hun- dred instead of the thousand feet,— a mistake which would have lost me about seven dollars. Doubtless the thrifty woman who always goes over her bills is ques- tioning the existence of any other sort of woman.

B ey the other day I read an article which gives an amusing (if it were not so horritying, proof of her common sense. Five Women Who Don’t Know What They Have Bought. A grocer during a rush hour car- ried out a ham and put it in his cus- tomer’s limousine himself. After- wards he could not remember which customer it was, so he told his clerk to charge it to seven of the limousine owning customers, ' expecting that those who were wrongly charged would protest. At the date of writ- ing flve had paid for that ham with- out protest. Another grocer confessed that when he wasn’t making enough profit he added some items to the bills of his non question asking customers. Those who protested were entirely satisfled when he adjusted the matter. Some women aren’t careful about their bills because they are too lazy. Others hate to be always protesting about little items. They think it is mean. It is worse than mean to put the extra burden of such carelessness on their -husbands. Especially in these times.
