Prasenting The Bo(lc. of Yorktown, a Beautiful Historical Feature in Three Reels. : _The siege of Yorktown was the last sérious military operation of the war of American independence, and result- éq in the surrender of Lord Cornwallis, the sblest of all the English generals in Afnerica. Washington himself I the first shot into the beleaguered town, and it was his skill ‘and e that gained the victory and »,Am‘wrlcn her independence. The reel feature photoplay The Belle orktpwn, shown at the Davis to- ¥y degls with this great battle, and ide om the historical Interest it &~ pretty love story and tells of 'w & brave American girl helped to | n $he victory for her country.

Closing the show is a screaming fun- ny. Majestic comedy called The Hen- pecked .Hodcarrier, a picture that no i one can help laughing at. Matinee daily at 2)80; 5 and 10 cents, COLONIAL THEATRE. By Ma 'w, Biograph, Superb Two Reel Feature Spectacle . The intricacies of film-play pro- duting, as well as its possibilities, are clearly shown in the mammoth Bio- graph production at the Coionial to- day entitled By Man's Law. This powerful ‘feature is one of ‘the "very few multiple reel dramas sent out by the great - Biograph company, and its | strong story of the oppression of poor | by the monopolists cannot fail to make the patrons of the popular Colonial see its wonderful moral and superlative merit. Another big two-reel feature, a second one, and @ rare occurrence on | a2 motion picture programme, shows 8flzg Marner, perhaps the most widely read novel of the universal favorite authoress, George Hliot, as the co-star | with the Iiograph film. This supreme- | ly beautifui novel never was presented as accurately as in the feature by the Idison cast today, when William West, the veigran actor of thé company,ap- pears as Silas. This is a film tha. none should miss, and there is plenty of ‘mirth in the reel The Vaudeville ! Star’s Vacation. NORWICH TOWN Methodist Church te Observe Christ- mas Sunday—A .Pest of Tramps— !

Ii means that Pebeco has promoted a normal flow of natural alkaline saliva. And this has ncutralized ‘“‘acid- mouth,” which authorities say most of us have and which s almost the sole cause of tooth decay. If the germs can’t penetrate the cnamel, they can’t decay a tooth. Since Pebeco saves the enamel from ‘‘acid- mouth,” it helps save the teeth from decay-germs. Pebeco is the complete den- tifrice. Its all-round efficiency is shown in the way it cleans, + whitens and polishes the teeth and overcomes unwholesome breath. Sold everywhere.

Japan’s rice crop this year is esti- mated at nearly 263,934,000 bushels, a 12,000,000 bushel increase over last year. Throughout, the world one-fourth of all children die before 6 years of age one-half before they are 16, and only one person in each 100 lives to age of 65.
