BREED THEATER. u 8 Army Manoeuvres, Magnificent Military Spectacle. Superbly scenic in every detail and marvelously accurate, the great mili- tary picture entitled U. Army Manoeuvres at Fort Lea¥enworth, Kansas, was shown at every perform- ance at the Breed theater to large and attentlye audiénces who were held spellbound by the unlimited subjects presented. Among the many events shown are the review of 7,000 of Uncle Sam’s picked men on dress parade. pontoon bridge building, field wireless and telegraphy through ground cir- cuits, heliograph signaling and wig- wagging, bridge building, rough riding and bereback drills, splendid display of the ponderous artillery and cavalry manoeuvres. Included in this great fillm ig the buflding of a spar bridge in ten minutes and the destruction of it with dynamite after the last soldier has pmssed over it. This is said to be the finest military picture ever taken and the wonderful vim, snap, orderli- ness apparent makes it a picture of trememdous educational value and thrilling interest. There is a powerful biograph story entitled Her Terrible Ordeal and is strongly melodramatic in character, keepimg the spectators in a state of excitgment until the great climax. The rest of the programme is equal- 1y stwong, while the excellent singing of M¥ss Wolcott is regarded as one of the pest features of the bill, rendering &s she does the old favorite, T Dreamt I Dwelt in Marble Halls, from The Bo- ‘hemfan Girl, also retaining by popular request the illustrated song There's a Mother Old and Gray, one of the sea- son'g biggest hits.

The discovery caused qufite a sensation, particularly among these farmers who think the veins run thpough their farm That there is oil in that section of Connecticut is not ne to the Standard Oil company. 'ge ground where the oil shows on thy surface in a swamp has been in- | sndcted by the company,-and Mr. Hen- dr)x told a reporter that several at- termpts have been made to discourage him from sinking a shaft.

The very little child, whether boy or girl, 's looks sweet and feels at ease in the simple little Mother; Hub- bard frocks which fall in gathers from yokes either straight or round, the lat- ter being the ome here used. I ired the frock may be made more elaborate by using fine ‘embroidered flouncl:! for the skirt and making the yoke of all- over embroidery or decorating it with hand work. Plaits under the arms give the skirt the necessary fullaess, and the sleeves may be elbow puffs or full length. In either case they are finished with narrow bands. Persian or India lawn, pongee, China silk, Swiss, or- gandy, batiste, chambray, gingham or French percale may be employed for the development of this model, with lace, embroidery, art edging, hem- stitching or hand embroidery for its embellishment. X The pattern is cut in four sizes—14 to 5 years. For a child 3 years old the dress requires 23 yards of materim 36 inches wide, with, as illus: of insertion and 13% yu-ds o ing to trim. Price of pattern 10 cents. Order through The Bulletin Company, Pattern Dept., Norwich, Conn. Sana is the largest and most impor- tant inland city in Southern Arabia.

Problem of Eating. One who possesses a healthy, nor- mal appetite and a good dizestion is apt to take a different view of the eating problem from that of the man who is not living under such desira- ble conditions. He is fortunate who has an appetite for breakfast, and is doubly fortunate if he has a break- fast for his appetite. Conceding that many persons eat too much, it must be remembered that many eat too lit- tle, The world is full of well meaning individuals who spend a considerable portion ‘of their time in telling their fellow men what to eat and how to “ eat it. These persons forget that eat- ing is largely a matter of likes and dislikes, and .that a regimen that is acceptable to one palate is entirely distasteful to another. The old sayving has it that what is ome man’s meat is another man’s poison. The physi- cian may prescribe a diet for his pa- tient because he knows from experi- ence what is best adapted to his par- ticular case.
