I was glad in- deed to see the retreating backs of all three, for their departure. left me frec ta proceed with especially Dicky’s ‘“‘collection” books and periodicals, moved to our new home before noon on the next day, the time when our lease expired. Our erratic and often landlord had appeared in the morning to see why we were not already, mov- ing. Dicky’s altercation with him had made him so angry that he had de- parted, threatening dire vengeance if the last article were not off his prem- ises at the stroke of the next day's noon. The moving men we had en- gaged could not dr would not come hecause of the muddy condition of the roads, and I was nearly at my wits' end with anxlety until I had thought of a scheme which, if I cauld sacrifice my housewifely pride a bit, would get everything out by the appointed time. This was to keep William Trumbull and his push cart traveling back and forth between the:new hame and the old, all ‘night if necessary, until the last installment of Di¢ky’s “collection’ was landed in the attic of the new "home. I knew that Jim with an oc- easional *“hand” from William could manage to get the furniture and the trunks over on a horse-drawn wagon it he only had been able to secure one. Dicky’s’ “collection,” which I knew. many wives would consign to the rag man the minute his back was turned, was the bughear. in my path. What our new neighbors would think of my method of moving and of the cargo Willlam and the push cart of old . would carry, I didn’t dare to think. I went swiftly to the kitchen the min. ute I had seen the last of my husband and his relatives, and found Jim and Katie and William discussing with great excitement the problem of thej moving. “I only could find one horse, Mrs. Graham,” said Jim worriedly, “and he isn’t very strong. He can't pull a very heavy ‘load Willlam Trumbull be&mefl up at me out of his near-sighted eyes, which yet were of so clear and child-like a blue that they redeemed his ugly face. He was a squat little man, almost a dwarf, but with an unusually well de- veloped chest and arms.. The ngliness of his face was accentuated by a lump or iorn ‘of flesh .protruding from one’ slde of his forehead. Altogether, his was a face and figure calculated to strike terror into the hearts of chil- dren and nervous women. And yet all children and animals loved William Trumbull, a sure test of the unfortu- nate old fellow’s innate goodness af heart. He was so eager to propose some plan to me that he fairly wrig- gled on his chair as he waited for Jim to stop talking. “Don’t Need to Worry.” “Don’t need to worry none, Mis’ Gramie,” he said in his staccato, husky utterance, which people found hard to understand at first—I myseil ‘had ‘puzsled over it for days before I could get the man's real meaning. “Don’t matter none if Jim he can't get no horse. I kin move everything right on my push cart. I kin get a plano on that push cart if Jim can g0 along to help me hold it on.” The vision of Willlim Trumbull and Jim delicately balancing a piano on the push cart was almost too much for my risibles, but I managed to keep my face straight. Katie had not my self-control, however, and she gig- glea outright. William' sulky child' “You don’t need to laugh,” he said sourly. ‘‘Me and that push cart we've done things for lots of swell people in this town. Mis' Cathcart, thnt'! the banker's wife, she's a short, chunky lady, she always has me bring things to her from the station, and take trunks down, too, when their automo- bile is broke."” His voice was full of pathetic pride. I hostened to soothe his wounded vanity. “I have a.very important job for you, Willlam,” I said, “one that I woudn’t trust to an ordinary express- men. But you have to work all night lang on it.” The Eager Answer. His face lighted up as if someone had turned an incandescent bulb be- hind his eyes. “Ain’t no job in the world too long or too hard for me and the push cart if you want us, Mis' Gramie,” the poor fellow said simply. And there came to me a sudden, swift thought like a forewarning, that sometime, somehow, Willlam Trum- bull would make good his boast. VIOLINCELLO INSTRUOTION By W. H. MILLER, SATURDAYS 3 to 9 p. m.

The Englishman is lured a great distance from his hotel by the crafty Algerian with the assistance of a guide, and then he proceeds to work his charms ELSIE FERGUSON AT THE LYCEUM Elsie Ferguson, whose most recent stage success in “Shirley Kay" on Broadway was the big hit of the sea- son last winter, has been won over by the motion pictures, and in ‘“Barbary Sheep,” her first production, which heads the program at the Lyceum theatre today, Friday and Saturday, she scores an instantaneous success. Miss Ferguson's great beauty, which, coupled with her exceeding ability, helped her win. a high place in the theater warld, is brought greatly into play in her first picture, for she has that sought-after distinction of ‘“‘pho- | tographing well,”” and all the details of her handsome features are brought out clearly and distinctly. ‘“‘Barbary Sheep” relates the expe- riences of the beautiful Kathryn, Lady Wyverne, wife of Sir Claude Wyverne, who, tiring of her conventional ex- istence, prevails upon her husbapd to take her to Algeria, where, she-feels, her romantic soul will have room for development. She is the sort of per- son who belleves there is great amuse- ment in testing the passion of men, and,’ with the hope' that Algeria will furnish that amusement, sets out for the distant land. In unconventional Algeria she meets Benchaalal, an officer in the Algerian cavalry, and between them there springs up a strange friendship. The handsome soldier possesses a magnetic personality and by degrees the Eng- lishwoman feels herself, against her will, drawn toward him. He tells Sir Claude of some excellent hunting up in the mountains and prevails upon with the idea of on Lady Wyverne. There are some fiercely dramatic and tense moments in this great play, and Miss Ferguson is called upon to exert all her power. On the pragram will be a Lonesome Luke Comedy, and scenes from the Front.” the Lyceum “With the Weekly Allles at GEORGE PEP WALSH AT FOX'S THEATER Pep, Zip, and Ginger! Those are three of the principal components of “This Is the Life,” in which George Walsh, the most popuiar athlete- comedian on the screen today, makes his bow at Fox's theater. There has never been shown a picture on Fox’'s screen with so much rapid-fire ac- tion, and dare-devil stunts as this one. There’s more fun three ring circus, and there's twice as much going on all the time. George just enjoyed himself thorough- ly, and that means that everyone who saw him had u great big good time. He isn't still for a single second, from the time he is first discovered in his combination bedroom-gym- nasium, until the very end of the pic- ture. And there is something besides mere physical activity to the show too. It has a real, logical, but highly hil- arious plot, the workings of which are dstinctly original. George plays the part of Billy Drake, a bright youth who has absolutely no use for hard work, but ‘who loves the movies. he deter- motion picture in it than in a Inspired by this ambition, mines to become a star. He even writes to the greatest producer in the business, and offers him his services for fifty a week. He performs a few stunts, and then raises his own salary to five thousand. Papa Drake, however, does not ap- prove of Willie's young dreams, and sends him to South America to for- get it, and incidentally to act as pri- vate secretary and personal valet to a consignment of ammunition. Billy goes aboard, and sees a motion pic- ture camera in the possession of a German spy, whereupon he immed- iately jumps to the conclusion that everybody on board is connected with the movies. Arriving in South Amer- ica, the TTeuton starts a revolution, and Billy pitches right in to help out, thinking that the whole thing is only a motlon. picture play being enatted. He smiles all through, although he wonders at times at the realism with which some of the scenes are per- formed. Even when he is taken out to be shot, he doesn’t see anything but the funny side of it until he sees the executioners putting ball bullets into their rifles. And then things be- gin to happen with considerable energy. And there is a novelty sur- prise sprung at the.end of the pic- ture that alone is worth the price of admission. An exciting chapter of the “Seven Pearls,” “The Red Ace" and" the' Pathe News, constitute the remainder of the program. T beatersfoers and Women Readers Use Sugar Sparingly—Do Not Waste It Everyone—manufacturers and .householders— should use sugar sparingly for the present. The supply is limited and will be until the new crop of cane can be harvested and shipped from Cuba and "the Tropics. The supply will then be ample.

Said someone else, “Oh, I think you must be mistaken, I don't” think she is at all’ that’sort of wofan.” By the way she’ s4id” “‘that"sort of a worhan” it wds plain that she took the phrase “self indulgent” in the only meaning which most of us give it. That is she took it to apply to the grosser forms of self indulgence. Isn't that a mistake we are all apt to make, not only in' our use of that term but in our attitude toward the state it connotes? If we are free from the grosser forms of self indulgence we think we are free from self indulgence. But are we? Take the Phrase to Pieces. Helf Indulgent means simply in- dulging onewelf, In any direction. Heye's mume of the things it can meai fstting onewelf be irritable becuuns one “feeln like it.” Indulging onewelf in dwaddling.

Letting oneself get into the -habit of blinking any facts that annoy one, For instance if there is any- thing you ought to do and don’t want to do, permitting yourself to con- vince yourself by some pleasant sophistry that it really isn't your duty after all. Just l Indulging your mind in any kind of unreasoning fear or superstition. Yielding to your pet sin such as ex- travagance or quick temper, and the justifying yourself with various excuses. Doing slovenly work your best. Letting yourself habit. mmAnPeopleWhoAren'tumn; a Finger to Help.
