How the latter repays her generosity by her selfishness, even to the extent of trying to steal her lover, makes this a great domestic story. In the final climax however, the tragedy of the life of this pitiless flirt is brought out with emphasis, The latest release in the Benny Leonard serial will start tomorrow, and the first feature, “Discontented Husbands,” port s a film drama in which the masculine sex are pie- tured as the ones wearying of home ties when things are not as happy as they might be, THE HERALD CLASSIFIED ADS BRING RESULT:S Elks’ Fair Tonight Elks’ Home Washington Street Lo Radio Booth Gift Shop Dolls Blankets Candy Latps e Entertainment and Dancing Every Evening ——-———J Collegiate Dance Jester’s Hall Friday Evening, Feb.

Nearly every one concerned with the wedding, save only the bride and groom themselves, had verified the report that it had taken place, but the more prosaic problem of the whereabouts of Mr. and Mrs. Telle- gen remained early today an un- solved mystery. One report had it that the actor and his wife were in San Francisco and would return today or tomorrow but “efforts to find them in San Francisco were unsuccessful, It was gencrally agreed by thelr friends here, however, that now that the marriage secret was out, they would soon cease to be missing.
