DAVIS THEATRE. Thres Great Acts and Triangle Pho- toplays Today There will be & _complete change of photoplays at the Davis today and the feature is the Golder Claw, a five part “Trlongle feature. Triangle feature. Bessie Barriscale the part of a girl Who marries ‘money in The Golden Claw. Mias Barriscale is shown as living with her mother (Truly Shettuck). They are in straitened circumstences tiough 1 in an extravagant way. As a it the girl makes up her mind to 2 man of wealth. Her choice m’ 4 rieh youth, who is repre- W Frank Mills. She frankly ' “him thet she i3 marrying him for money rlone, but he does not be- fieve it. Mills loses his wealth through the pinchirg out of the vein in the silver mine in which he is interested. His wife reproaches him for the loss of his wealth and he is goaded to do his utmost to recoup his fortune. By ‘lucky deals in Wall Street he restores himself to his former position as s man of means, but the strain of con- stant effort and concentration in money-making make him into a sort of machine. Then Miss Barriscale, as the hero- ine, begins to notice that she has lost the lover that so ardently wooed her and she realizes the hollowness of lux- ury and wealth without affection. On the anniversary of her marriage she goes to see her husband in his office. and when she reminds him of what the day means, thinking that he would give her some flowers or other other token of his love, she is bitterly dis- appointed in his coldly handing her a check for $5,000. . Miss Barriscale is next seen enter- taining o former rival of Mills, who is also a rival in the stock market. By this man's machinations Mills becomes ' dnvolved to such a degree that he wants to borrow money he had pre- sented to his wife. In order to get him away from his money-mad career. Miss Barriscale refuses to aid him. He is ruined and is about to commit spicide when he overhears his wife telling his rival that che had refused in order to win him back to her- #elf. At this disclosure he masterfully sends the other man on his way and with some of his old fire he takes his estranged wife to his bosom.

One of the fondest traditions of the stage has been given a rude shock by the management of Mald in America, the big New York Winter Garden re- wue, coming to the Davis theatre ‘Tuesday, Feb. 1st, when upon the com- aged 15, of this city was as follows: At first New Hngland had a_great water power, and a moist climate enough labor, all of which were im- ROt I e i ‘B peopls. o . Then New England came mostly from farms and they made the best laborers for the mills, Steam is now used greatly because the people have found out that the New England water-power 1s not inexhaustible as they once thought Now that they have ventil- ating and moistening _systems they can regulate the climate inside the factories no matter what is is out- side Some of the great advantages of the New .England mills are the meanest to the large cities, great mar- kets, skilled labor, a good reputation, and’ a capital that holds the cotton busines where it is. The earliest kind of weaving as we know was done with rushes instead of yarn or thread in the making of baskets After people learned how to make yarn or thread, the same thing was done with yarn or thread as the rushes were in the making of bas- kets A number of threads were at- tached to a beam at the top, and the other ends of these threads were attached to another beam at the bot- tom so they hung straight at a short- distance apart. Then the weaver ed o thread horizontally through n and out among the threads that were attached to the beams, going back and forth across the whole of them and pushing the cross threads tightly against each other with a stick. This was very slow work and when it was done, unless the greatest of care had been’ taken, the weave would be loose, that Is, the threads were not firm ‘enough and as close together as they are in our modern textiles. This was the foundation of all weaving and the operation today is that merely the same thing is better donme. If you look at a piece of cloth or pull it to pieces you will see that there are two sets of thread, or “the warp and the Woof.” Ome goes across and the oth- er under. The lacing back and forth of these threads is what forms and makes the cloth, ‘ The machine for weaving cotton- cloth, whether it is two beams, a limb of a tree, or made into a frame, it is known as the loom. In order to have the thread pass more easily through the “warp and woof” it is at first wound on a bobbin which when placed in a large or small wooden tube with two steel tips on it called the shuttle passed swift- ly across between the warp and Woof leaves a small thread after each time which is shoved up very close to the one before it, this is what makes the cloth. This process is known as weaving. 5 The inventions in spinning in- creased so that the spinner could make cloth so much faster and <o more easily than the weavers could use it up. At first as we all know: as far back as colonial times they had the old spinning wheel in each house. ‘This was a very slow process but it answered the requirements of the thmes; next step was the hand loom ‘which could be run sitting down, and by keeping the shuttle going by mov- ing the hand back and forth. Now Cartwright invented a better moans for doing this work and that better way was the power loom, the little invention that made the spinners keep so far ahead of the weavers. It was patented in 1875 but was not put into much effect until a long time had elapsed because the people were used to the old hand loom, but when the manufacturers did find out lts great superiority over the old hand loom they at once got busy and went to set them up in their great factories because power looms could be run very much more quickly and easily in the factories. Some of the old home manufacturers at first tried to compete with the power looms but all turned out very fruitless. The change between handicraft and ma- chinery brought along machinery breaking riots that were put down by force. Mercerizing was at first started by an Englishman named John Mercer; he was a hand loom weaver in England. Mercerizing was started with cotton goods although it can be used wit hother goods. It is treated ,to the action of caustic soda dissolved in water, and a weak solu- tion of sulphuric acid is then used to wash out the soda remaining in them. ‘This process is saild to bring about a number of changes in the makeup of the fabrics, Mercer asserted after being subjected to his process fabrics would be stronger than before, and would more easily take the dyes. The dyeing and finishing of goods is, strictly speaking, a part of the process of textile manufacturing, but it is a common practice of the estab- lishment. Half of all our cotton g00ds are colored either by dyeing or printing, before they are used. Dye- ing itseif is a man’s job. Up to 1905 for-fifths of the labor hired were men, but the women and children were beginning to be hired to do this kind of work. The dyestuffs being used in coloring fabrics come from all the different parts of the world, and the number of them have in- creased so greatly since the very early times that there is a feeling that the great European war will have 2 great effect on the dyestuffs be- cause of the submarines and bombs that the ships would be afrald to go _ ture in five reels, one of the biggest film features ncw before the public, will be presented and accompanying it under the direction of Musical Di- rector Dowsett, will be the same ag- gregation of ' Federated Musicians, from the local union.

The following letter from Manager Hodes recounts the experlence _ond condition of many Norwich men. Read this letter and our offer which fol- 1o ws: Brooklyn, N. Y. ‘1 am a seneral office manager, and became so ner- vous and run-down in health that I 1ost my appetite and finally my health broke down completely, largely be- cause of overwork. I tried Beef Iron and Wine, and other remedies with- out help. I saw Vinol advertised, and soon after taking it I noticed an improvement. I now have a hearty appetite, sleep , feel better and have gained erable in weight.” Samuel Hodes, 501 Stone Ave, The reason Vinol is so successful in such cases is because it contains the three oldest and most famous tonics viz—the medicinal elements of fresh cod livers without oll, peptonate of_iron and beef peptone. ‘We ask every run-down, over worked man in Norwich to try a bottle of Vinol with the understanding that their money will be returned if it fails to help them as it did Mr. Hodes, G. G. Engler, Broadway Pharmacy, Norwich. e to Burope after them, ~or her pos- sessfons. The dyestuffs are vegetable, animal and mineral dves. One of the great vegetable dyes is indigo. Perhaps the greatest animal dyestuff is “Tyrian purple,” derived fro ma Mediterra- nean shellfish. In Bible times if a man had any fine linens or purple clothes he was considered to be very rich or of very high rank. Under this rule Rome made purple an imperial color to be used for im- perial use only because it was so costly. Hence the phrase, “To put on pur- ple,” meant as much to the people of Rome as the phrase, “To put on the ermine,” meant to England, to become king or emperor. Some of the most common dyes of this present day are made from a by- product of coke manufacture known as coal tar. These days are very cheap because they are made from a by-product of a business that is prof- itable without them. Coal tar is nothing but thick dark liquid which gathers In gas pipes when the gas is being driven from the coal and yet this dirty-blacky looking substance can be combined with some of the certain chemicals and used in mak- ing some of the most beautiful of colors. Sometimes the dyeing is done before the spinning takes place and sometimes it takes place after weaving. Mercer’s claim, it will be remem- bered, was that by this process it would take the dyestuffs better than any other time. In order to make a dye permanent it has long been cus- tomary to use a dormant, which means a “biter,” or “to biter,” in the color. Alum, or some similar substance which united with any of the dyestuffs to from an inoslute compound, has been largely used. In general the vegetable dyes are much less likely to fad: than the mineral dyes. The Navajo Indians of the west used a great quantity of vegetable dyes for coloring their blankets, rigs and other fine goods tney had for sale. When the traders come they fur- nished the Navajo Indlans with a large quantity of their old mineral dves. As soon as the Navajo Indians went to using them the value of their rigs, blankets, and all of thelr goods went speedily down. 4 As we have seen the causes for New England surpassing the South with cotton manufacturing was the loca- tion of industries in certain parts of the section; one good reason is be- cause of the water power and near- ness to the very large markets. East- orn Connecticut has quite & few cot- ton-mills. We also have many woolen, silkvand velvet mills. DECLARES GREAT BRITAIN IS “VEXATIOUSLY INQUISITORIAL” Amedican Protest Against Interference with Mails So States. - Washington, Jan. 27.—The text of the American protest to Great Britain against interference with neutral mails, made public tonight, reveals that diplomatic and consular pouches have been treated in, a manner the United States considers “vexatiously inquisitorial.” The note describes the practices of British officials as “un- warranted interferences” and in urg- ently requesting a prompt reply points out that “a strong feeling is being aroused” in this country by the loss of valuable letters, while foreign banks are refusing to cash American drafts because they have no assurances that drafts are secure in the mails. The United States declares that pos- tal articles are entitled to the exemp- tions of neutral trade and denies the right of Great Britain to take neutral mail ships into British jurisdiction for purpose of search and then submit them to local censorship regulations. It also denies that the British gov- ernment has any authority over neu- tral sealed mails on ships which mere- ly touch at British ports. RHEUMATIC CRIPPLES NOW REJOICE No Matter if You Are Crippled, Can’t Use Arms, Legs or Hands, if Rheuma Doesn’t Help You Nothing To Pay. It you want relief in two days, swift, certain, gratifying relief, take one-half teaspoonful of Rheuma once a day: If you want to dissolve every particle of uric acid poison in your body and drive it out through the natural chan- nels so that you will be forever free from rheumatism, get a 50-cent bottle of Rheuma from Lee & Osgood Co. or any druggist today. ‘Rheumatism is a powerful disease, strongly entrenched in joints and muscles, and any modern physician will tell you that the days of wishy- washy treatments are over and in order to conquer rheumatism and sciatica a powerful enemy must be sent against it. Rheuma is the enemy of Rheuma- tism— an enemy that conquers it ev-zwuma. Judge John Barhorst of Ft. Loramie, Ohio, knows it. He was walking with crutches; today he is well. It has caused hundreds of others to refoice. It should do as much for you; it seldom fails.
