FOR
MATINEE

Last evening the shadow Of Salome
danced for the head of John the Bap-
fist at the Art Theater.
At noon today the Y. NJ. c. A. fol-
lowed it up with an exposition of He'll
One c. c. Wilson was the young Da-
vid who slung the pebble at the brow
of the giant Goliath of an almost dead
superstition
To fifteen newsboys, half dozen ia
panese, two bill collectors and few
intelligent people, at noon today this
young man delivered the information
that hell was bad conscience.
He told of Dives and Lazarus and
how the former pet1tioned for the
moistened finger of the latter when
Dives was suffering torment because
he was being roasted by memory of
wrongs done, an incapacity to bridge
the chasm that divided him from Abra-
MANS bosom, and his chagrin at seeing
the former poor man happy while he.
who had been rich, was now in misery.
1t was a good talk and one who
had the night before, in the same
hall, beheld Salome doing a very poor
imitation of the hoocnle-coochie dance
before Herod, on the moving-picture
screen, could not help but thinking
that the particular hell that was
handed Salome was when she realized
that she couldn't get a Kiss from John
the Baptist, in spite of the fact that
he had lost his. head over her
To sum Wilson's talk, he mentioned
the fact that the Kingdom OF He'll, like
the Kingdom of Heaven, is within us
all.
There is change of program at the
Art tonight, so perhaps Salome will not
appear again, for which fact there
should be cause for great rejoicing.
