In fact the salutation, “Hey Buddie, gimme a match,” might, from now on, come from the lips of a rough neck bruiser or those of a rosy cheeked, hobbed haired maiden, No more can a humble escort buy one cigar as he passes the refreshmemt stand: hence- forth his lady friend must be consid- ered a supporter of 'Lady Nicotine” as well, “Hey Jen, Got a Match?" «A horrified young man tells the story. He was walking through the park. His smoke went out. He had no matches. He looked around for a match and beheld to his astonish- ment, two very pretty young ladies sauntering along the Ariveway, vain. ly trying to conceal themselves be- hind a smoke screen of tobacco fumes. “Tot a light, ladies?" he inquired, applying for the first time to a mem- ber of the opposite sex, the age old inquiry of the smoker. Perfumed Smokes Probably. Calmly flicking the ashes from the tip of a dainty cigarette with a jew- eled finger, one young woman hand- ed the cigarette to the man, who ob- tained his light, passed the smoke, tipped his hat with a polite. “Thank and wandered off fn a daze, AILY FASHION BERVICOE sssqmwessmesmrmmm, | With or Without Sleeves — That’s the Questionl MY MARRIAGE PROBLEMS Adelo fiarrison's New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE Let the children share this mealtime beverage No NEED to warn the little folks away from the table beverage when Postum is served; every reason to invite every mems ber of the family to join in the enjoyment of this wholesome, satisfying drink.

So one Reldy flew down to Black Creek, where this nimble gentleman lived. Unseen by Mr. I'rog, Reddy Wood- pecker clung to an old stump that lcaned over the water, as if it wanted to enjoy a swim, but didn't quite dare to take the first plunge. Keeping most himself hidden, Reddy peeped around the stump and watched Ferd- inand Frog as he sat on a flat rock near the bank and caught flies. Mr. Frog was an expert at that port. Whenever a fly ventured near enough to him his lahg tongue dart- ed out of his wide mouth so quickly vou could hardly sce it. And it dart- ~d back again just as fast, bearing the iy upon the end of it “I don't see how hie spears ‘em like that,” thought Reddy Woodpec! “with notl but air behind them.” Mr. Frog's } k was so unusual that at last Reddy Woodpecker ecouidn't keep silent any longer. So he catled M» Fro¢ was arn expert at that sport to Mr. Frog: "How do you do—." “I'm very well, thank you!" cried Ferdinand Frog instantly. “How are Reddy that Mr Woodpecker had to explain IProg hadn't understood him t I was goin to ask you,” he said, "‘was not ‘How do i doet It was ‘How do you do that,?" ‘That what?" Ferdinand Frog in- quired. “How do you spear flies with your ue when they're in the air?" Red- dy Woodpecker asked: *I can spear grubs and things with my tongue when they're on a tree. And I can | catch flies in my mouth when I'm fly- ing. But I've never learned your | trick.” “T don't spear flies,” | and Frog. Of course Reddy Woodpecker thought that Mr. Frog had told a whopper. Hadn't he been wathing him? “I don't spear flies teng Ferdinand Frog “My tongue iz sticky i touches a fly, he's caught. simple.” ‘““That's an elegant ‘em,”” Reddy remarked. “Yes,” said Mr. Frog: "and that's tand elegant suit you're w2aring.

It's a question evéry woman must decide for herself after giving the subject the serious consideration it deserves. The difficulty is that the unprejudiced observer is likely to con- clude, as always, that both sides are entirely in the right In that case there's nothing to do but to have two summer wraps—one with sleeves and one without. Both are fashionable. Sleeves are interesting this season : P COPYRIGHT BY M*CALLS and one dislikes to do without them. They are made in odd shapes and trimmed with beads or embroidery quite beyond one's wildest imagin- ings. On the other hand a cape without sleeves is an essentially romantic garment. It reminds one of Spanish cavaliers and dark-eyed villains and all that sort of thing. The choice, of course, is a matter of tempera- tuless otherwise indicnted, theatrical notic PALACE THEATER ‘The Invisible Power,” a Goldwyn picture, by Charles Kenyon and di- rected by Frank Lloyd, is the feature playing at the Palace theater, Thurs- day, Friday and Saturday It is an rngmssmz story of the underworld, of real dramatic power.

The Keith vaudeville bill for the last half of the week starting today, has four good acts| with Norman and Saul in a°* musical offering; Fargo and White, comedy a flashy trio, who offer a series of talk; the Misses Howard and Wilson, a flashy trio, who offer a esries of dances that are cleverly done: and Flo‘ Ring, a charming prima donna, who has an excellent woice and with her sparkiing personality offers a fine se- lection of songs that are highly en- tertaining.

You mustn't break your promise.” “I'm not going inside any shop,” Reddy daclared very firmly. “Of course not!"” said Mr. Frog. T'll go inside. You stay outside. And I'll look you over through the door- way and jot down what I need.” “All right!" said Reddy Woodpeck- er. So Mr. Frog leaped ashore and gaily lead the way to his shop near-by. {4 opvnght 1922 by Metropolitan ) paper Service.) MAKING OLD-TIME APPLE DUMPLINGS FOR TH RF(‘TPE YOU NEED Fight small apples Two cups flour One-half teaspoon salt One teaspoon baking powder Three-fourths cup thick, cream Butter Sugar sweet OTHING will add more zest to an evening or holi- day meal than good old-fashion- ed grandmother's apple dumplings. Here's how to make them — in the real old-fash- ioned way: Sift flour, salt and baking pow- - der into mixing bowl. Cut in cream with a Kknife. | This dough should be as stiff as pie dough Roll about one-fourth inch thick Cut in squares In the center of each square pile apples which have been pared, cored and cut in quarters. Sprinkle lightly with sugar, dot with bits of butter and bring the four corners of the square together over the top of the apples. Bake in moderate oven 46 minutes. The oven should be hot when the dumplings &re put in and the heat reduced slightly as the crust bakes. After the first 15 minutes of baking baste with one-quarter cup boiling water and one tablespoon melted butter. Just before dumplings are ‘done take from oven and baste with jnnm&mm T meited butter.

FOX’S THEATER Kenneth| Harlan, smiling and de- bonair even as he was when a mem- ber of the Lyceum players in this city several years ago, has the principal male role in the current feature at Fox's, “The Barrricade,” and playing opposite him is one of the most beau- tiful girls in the movies. Friday and Saturday the program of double features will include clever Will Rogers in ‘‘Boys Wiyl Be Boys” and “The Light in the Clearing." All who have read Basil King's ar- ticles know how he delves into the occult. Such is his “Earthbound” to be shown Sunday night. “Bunty Pulls the Strings,” a comedy will also be shown. Serve warm with sugar and cream. The covering for the apples may be of pie dough not quite as short as for ple. To make this crust use two cups flour, one-half cup lard, one-half tea- ‘|spoon salt and enough cold water to make a dough. Roll and use as in preceding rule. Apple dumplings make a hearty des- sert and should follow a light meal.

FINAL TRIBUTE T0 LILLIAN RUSSELL Funeral Services Today--Ameri- can Legion Sends Firing Squad Pittsburgh, June 8.—(By Associat- ed Press)—Friends from officialdom from the profession which carried her to the height of her operatic glory, and from the walks of life into which her various well directed interests carried her in later years, today paid their last respects to Lillian Russell Moore, wife of A. P. Moore, Pitts- burgh publisher. Announcement of her death on Tuesday morning struck deep into the hearts of those who had known her down through the years during which she was heralded as “Queen of Am- erican Opera,” and hundreds of sym- pathetic messages have been received at the home as well as many beauti- ful floral tokens. The funeral at which Pittsburgh friends, and admirers from all over the country. gathered in farewell trib- uvte took place in Trinity Episcopal church at 2:30 o'clock. A private service was conducted at the home previously, when members of the family and a few of those most close- ly associated in friendship with the deceased looked for the last time up- on the features of the®woman whose beauty and talent were admired the world over. The casket was closed finally before its journey to the church. Rev. Dr. Edward S. Travers, rector of the church officiated at both services. Marines On Guard Silent sentinels, a detachment of U. S Marines, have stood guard at the death room in the Moore home since their arrival from Washington,“under orders from Assistant Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt. They were watching over a dead comrade, for such she was by official warrant during the world war when she held the rating of gunnery sergeant. And when their vigil was eénded they were the body- guard on the march to the church and thence to the cemetery. There the survivors of the 107th Field ar- tillery escorted the cortege from the gates to the vault where Mrs. Moore's body will find a resting place until a suitable mausoleum can be erected. A firing squad from the American Legion, whose ranks the distinguished woman graced by her membership, rendered the farewell salute. Many Floral Tributes Although a request that no floral tributes be sent to the home had been made, hundreds of wreaths from per- sons prominent in official and profes- sional walks of life were received. One of these was from the White House. This was placed on th€ foot of the couch on which Mrs. Moore's body lay. Others who contributed floral of- ferings were U, S. Senator Medill Mc- Cormick, Attorney Geenral Harry M. Daugherty, Gov. and Mrs. William C. Sproul, Mr. and Mrs. J. Ogden Ar- mour, Mr. and Mrs. Gifford Pinchot, Mr. and Mrs. Leonard G. Wood, Con- gressman Stephen G. Porter, Kermit Roosevelt and other persons well known in social and professional cir- cles. Organizations also forwarded their tributes, military, professional and social. Hundreds of additional telegrams of condolences were also received. Among the senders were: U. S. Sena- tor William M. Calder, Secretary of War Weeks, Daniel Frohman, Charles M. Schwab, Mrs. Tony Pastor and many actors, actresses and persons otherwise acquainted with the noted woman. NEW FOOD PROPERTY.
