And of course they simply couldn’t chatter then. “There!” cried Aunt Polly. “You're better already.” She was quite pleased with what she had done. But Uncle Jerry Chuck was very angry. How was he going to eat his supper? He hadn't been ill at all. He had been frightened.

All sorts of sensi-| bilities, some of them so deeply hid-| den that she herself was unaware of | their existence, were being lacerated. And by Fred’s hand. “And you want me to live in this —this awful place,” she gasped, ‘‘with people like—that.” Connie flicked her hand in the direction of the cos- meticked woman.

Imagine Jackie, who doesn't weigh as much as a sack of flour, trying to lug a kit of heavy plumber’s tools up a stairway; and picture him further tying the bag to a wagon and lur- ing the old horse into drawing it up for him by waving a carrot under his nose. Then follow Jackie to the scene of trouble, where he contrives to turn a trickle into a flood by smashing the water pipe he meant so earnestly to repair. The Keith vaudeville bill has four good acts with Dillon and Milton in a very fine singing and piano offering; Eileen Sheridan, an exceptionally clever singing comedienne; Randall and Marston, a pair.of good come- dians, and Roder and Dean in a comedy novelty act. Thursday's bill features George Walsh in ‘‘Serenadas’” and Mary Pickford in a revival of “Going Straight.” NANOOK GREAT PICTURE—FOX’'S By far one of the best pictures thown here in months is “Nanook of the North,” on at Fox's today.
