I couldn’t help contrasting it with the gruffness of his response but a few hours earlier to my protests against his bringing the stuff from By adrait management I had been able to get Dicky’'s mother and her Cousin Agatha past the closed living their noticing the room’s condition. Since then both my mother-in-law and I had been busy straightening out the domestic unpleasantness caused by Cousin Agatha’s verbal attack upon Katle. I knew that Dicky's mother woulfl be occupied for some time to come with her cousin, who had gone to bed with a nervous headache, so that if I chose I could help put the room back in order, A Wistful Niote. But a remembrance of the ar- rogance with which Dicky had taken possession of the room, giving me the alternative of removing all the furniture and rugs or having them Tuined by the dusty accumulation from the attic, hardened my heart. “Why? They know we're moving,” I sald nonchalantly. “Of course they expect us to be torn up.

I always had to sneak my things outside. Mother was What they called a crackerjack housekeeper, and while she spoiled me In every- thing else, she never allowed me to litter the house with anything.” There was a wistful note in his voice that went straight to my heart. I could see the child he had been, grieving because he could not enjoy his ‘“collections” in peace. Then I realized again the child he is, and knew that I must mother my Peter | Pan, for in the daing so lay my only | chance of happiness. I had a swift| vision, gone as soon as it had come, | of a wide-eyed lad, mine, who should never, never have to ‘‘sneak” his “col- lections” out of the house, and the thought of the shadowy dream child who might not be mine curiously enough made my voice tenderer to my husband, although in strict justice the vision should have made me bitter against him. I moved nearer to him, and put my hand on his arm. “If youw’ll bring Jim in and promise | to ‘work like sixty,’” I said gayly, | “I think we may be able to put all this stuff in the library and get the; living room put to rights again be- fore your mother comes down stairs.” Dicky had the grace to look ashamed of himself. “ “You're a trump, Madge!” he ex- claimed, ‘‘especially after my grouch this morning, but you know I don’t mean things I say, don’t you, sweet- “I ought to,” I smiled, “by this time. Now hurry up and get Jim.” I paid a flying visit to Katle in the kitchen while Dicky went in search of Jim, and found her much more and sit in the library.” . “You know mother hates that Ii-! brary,” Dicky said, despondently, ' “and more than anything else she composed than when I left her.

I tried the other day to remember the first name of a woman who was once my close friend—and could not because I had never spoken it.

Haven’t you ever had friends with whom you were “o “rushed” them. And didn’t you feel sorry afterwards that you didn't let the intimacy ripen more slowly? Friendships Should Ripen Slowly. Emerson speaks of the danger of l i < “#ucking a sudden sweetness” ‘from friendships. It is a danger which xll young people are prone to run. Friend- ships, like fruit, want to ripen slowly to be the more perfect. The fruit that ripens suddenly is apt to have a false heart.

I Think Husbands and Wives Might Be Less Familiar.

I was afraid she was taking advantage of my kind- ness to be familiarly impertinent. Then for a feverish half-hour Katic, Cousin Agatha and all other problems were forgotten in our rush to get the living room settled. And so well did we labor that long befare my mother- in-law came downstairs everything “In a few’/minutes, Jim, I want you to come upstairs and help me to put, up my bed again and get'the furniture ; and rug rearranged,” I said when we . had finished. “What's that for?” Dicky asked, as Jim went slowly away, every line of | his back spelling protest against un- doing so much work already counted done. “Why, Cousin Agatha has to have a Toom to herself.

MARGUERTIE CLARK AT THE LYCEUM Reaching supreme heights in her characterization of “Tommy”, one of three daughters of the English March- foness of Castlejordan, who have been brought up as boys, Marguerite Clark, the winsome little motion picture star comes to the Lyceum today, to remain until Saturday. After two years be- fore the camera, Miss Clark has finally completed a productipn that for its everlasting cleverness and originality has any of her former pictures backed off the boards. Her part is probably more difficult than any ever attempted by her, but she does her work in that manner that has endeared her to the hearts of the picture lovers of two continents. “The Amazons” tells the tals of three girls, brought up as boys, who finally feel the pangs of love, and de- spite the wislies of their mother, mar- ry. Before the knot is tled, though, they go through a chain of experl- ences that brings the audience from thrills to shrieks of laughter. Miss Clark as “Tommy’’, the liveliest of the trio furnishes most of the excitement when she goes on a visit to London. ‘What with getting into a fight in “the liveliest music hall in the city” and es- caping with the mob at her heeels, boarding a passing automobile and be- ing obliged to escape through a win- dow of the house where she is taken, the little girl spends a somewhat live- ly evening. This production is right- Two Spoonfuls of Sugar a Day Saved by Every American Will Keep France Going France, one of the Allies, is in dire need of sugar. So limited is her available supply of this indispensa- ble energy-food that the daily allowance for each person barely covers a silver dollar. War has seriously interfered with the world’s sugar production. Until the new cane crop in Cuba and other tropical countries comes into the market, the supply in the United States will be enough for our needs only by rigid economy. Everyone must do his and her part to save sugar. Use it sparingly and do not waste it. If every American saved but two spoonfuls of sugar a day, this would be enough to give France the sugar her people need. This Company has no surplus sugar to sell. This ad- vertisement is simply an appeal to the public to use sugar sparingly until a new supply can be obtained. The purpose here is to ive the facts, so that the people of the New England and Atlantic Coast States may understand the exact situation and cooperate effectively with our Government in its present efforts. Do not pay an increased retail price. American SugarRefining Company ‘“‘Sweeten it with Domino’’ Granulated. Tablet, Powdered, Confectioners, Brown — fully heralded as Miss Clark’s supreme production. The Lyceum Weekly is also on the program, with scenes from the army camps showing America’s war prep- arations. There will be several other good pictures. GRACE CUNARD IS KEENEY'S FEATURE “Society’s Driftwood”, with Grace Cunard is one of the best productions seen upon the Butterfly program for some time. The plot, dealing with the unjust judge who is caught in his own | trap by a woman, offers a play with force and a sympathetic appeal that is ably maintained throughout. “Big Timber”, featuring Kathlyn Williams and her eminent co-star, Wallace Reid, is a true out-and-out western story with plenty of action, The story is quite novel, tinted here snd there | with touches of originality withal car- rying enough pathos, {intermingled with plenty of comedy, to meet the approval of the majority of the pic- ture fans. Lawler and Daughters is one of the best acts ever seen on any local stage. Lawler was made famous twenty-five years ago when he composed and wrote the song that never grew old ‘*The Sidewalks of New York” and many other song hits of those days are among his selections. All the musical numbers in this act are composed by Mr. Lawler, who still retains the pop- ularity he gained years ago as a song writer.

For it is one of these pictures that keep you right on the edge of the seat all the | way through, wondering just what is going to happen next, and what does happen invariably turns out to be just the opposite to what you.expected. It is a detective story through and through, and the most mysterious thing that can be imagined. Virginia Pearson plays the lead, the part of Mary Bruce, an American girl who is about to be bartered to English royalty. change is to be formally mated, she robs the man who claimed her. But in turn she her- self is robbed, and a number of valu- ables are missing that she knows nothing about. Detectives are sum: moned, and make good progress, by applying the process of elimination to all the suspects. But they reach the end of their rope when they have eliminated everyone, and can find no more suspects. A mysterious party, who travels under the name of Dy, of | “Thou Shalt Not Steal,” the feature | of the present Fox program, certainly | g \ Brown, appears throughout the pic- ture and he is an admirable type of | quaintness. It is through his most | astonishing work that the problem is finally solved in a most unique ma ner. William Nye, who plays this| part, is almost as much of a hit as| Virginia Pearson herself, and inas- | much as he also directed the picture, a mighty good share of the credit be- | longs to him. Dan Mason, that in-| imitable ' character comedlan, and Claire Whitney are also in the cast. “Thou Shalt Not Steal” will appear for the last time tonight. “The Air Peril,” which is the graphic title of| the present chapter of ‘“The Seven Pearls,” is a distinct novelty and as | full of thrills as a two-reeler can be. | Most of the action takes place high | above the clouds, and the services of | all kinds of air-craft, from balloons to Zeppelins and hydro-planes are pressed into service, and there are | one or two parachute drops that are unequalled for realism. “The Red Ace” and an interesting issue of the Pathe News are also on the program. Tomorrow’s feature will be a big | special Bluebird production called “The Rescue,” in which Dorothy Phillips is starred. The “Fatal Ring,” Mutt and Jeff in ‘“The Cheese Tams ers” and the Pathe News will als be shown. £ Slight scratches on mahogany furs niture can be removed by rubbing with a bit of pecan meat.
