AT THE GEM

To avoid, any disappointment the
management begs to- announce that
this will not be George Ever, the
worlds famous second baseman of the
Chicago Nationls, making his appear
ance today as George from Troy" is
still making himself busy around the
second base sacks on the various ma.
ton league grounds.
But his namesake, who will appear
at the Gem today, will make things
lively at the popular play house. He
carries with him the famous little fun
maker, "Porkchops," and if the re-
ports of the Fargo papers, where this
act has been the laughing hit of last
weeks bill, are true, there will be
some fun In store for the local thea
tire goers.
Violette Curtis, the singing and
dancing soubrette, also comes direct
from the Grand Family Theatre, in
Fargo and is we'll recommended.
Miss Ethel Moore will have new
illustrated song in Andrew Mack's lat
est hit, "Oh, You Girls" and the pic
lures, including one of the beautiful
Pathe art films, will be up to the
usual high standard.
The Sunday matinee will start at
and the 1.-TWO Pauls" will have plenty
o'clock and the night shows at 1880,
of refreshing ice water.
The management Is succeeding in
keeping the place as cool and COM
Portable as possible. So everybody to
the Gem today.

The Parlor.

AS the daughters bud into young
womanhood the youths of their &C
quaintance will ring the front door
bell. Where shall the modest ad-
vances and coy retreats Of sweet and
sacred courtship find their needed ex-
preston? American home training
and its soundly placed confidence in
the ~self-respect of boys and girls have
included no fixed places for the
chaperon as one inevitably present at
these engaging conferences. She ex-
lists, but usually as a figure in the
discreet background. 1t was n OF
the social problems of pioneer days
in a new country to find a place of
comparative s~eclusion for the bashful
calls of the neighbours lad.
In the congested life of large cities
the difficulty is enhanced and finds
unsatisfactory remedy in the theory
that there may be solitude in crowds
and possibilities for personal inter-
change of agreeable condolences IN
vehicles and public parks. The par
lor, in the old-fashioned of the
word, is In impossibility in a fiat. 1t
becomes there an anachronism, and

Banting the Dog.

The woman who was strolling up
Fifth avenue paused in front of a
smart little shop and looked at a
small article displayed in the window
and labeled, Dog Sweater" 1t was
handsomely and deliberately croch-
cited and evidently was expensive.
Not being the wner of a dog, and
being fairly unintelligent on such
subjects, the woman sought inside in

saleswoman, ARE to be worn by pet

Also, they are useful when it is nee

ignorant family.
Yes. You know pet dogs are like
ly to be overfed and to grow fat and
lazy. Then they have to be banted,
just like people"
"Ah! I suppose some one has to
take them out for this exercise?'
"Oh, certainly. Usually that falls
to the lot of the maid or some other
servant"
But suppose the servant should
not wish to be incidentally banted?"

Women as Jurors.

A phase of woman's suffrage which
has been given little publicity was dis
cussed by Miss Marguerite De Forest
Anderson, the celebrated woman COM
poser, to the New York Telegram.
Whether women get the right to
vote or not said Miss De Forest
Anderson, u believe they should be
| called upon to do jury duty. By this
I mean that when a woman is vitality
interested in a court case, whether 1t
be civil or criminal, it should be de-
cided by a jury which comprises an
equal number of men and women.
Women alone can understand wom-
en-, and many unjust verdicts would
be avoided if women were permitted
to serve on juries. Of course the
women picked for jury duty should
not be of the butterfly type. They
| should, instead, be intelligent women
who have had the benefit of an edu-
cation.
LAS far as woman suffrage itself is
concerned, I do not believe the wom-
en- will make much progress until
they adopt womanly and conservative
tactics. A good, true, womanly wom-
an can get anything she desires.
When the so-called s~uffragettes come
to realize this they will modify their
tactics, and then their chances for
success will be greater. Until that
| time, however, I think the success of
, the cause is more or less hopeless, for
men will not be forced to do any,
thing. They prefer to be coaxed. The
women who should vote are the wom-
en- who pay taxes. Strangely enough,
though, they as yet have remained in
the background. But when they do
! enter the lists, mark my words, some
! thing is going to happen"

The Absurdity Of
, Modern Navies.
seeoeaeeeeeeeseoo oeseeosoc

The great work of making war alb
surd. especially naval war, goes ON
swimmingly. A London paragraph in
the Sun quotes Naval-Expert Jane as
rejecting the suggestion that to sink
warships will be a chief use OF air.
ships in wartime. Not so, Mr.. Jane
says. But he says that experiment
has settled it that all ships are clearly
visible at night from q balloon over
head. But the chief protection of a
battleship fleet from night torpedo at
tack is invisibility. When the air.
ships are able to direct torpedo boats
by wireless where to find their quarry,
the security of battleships will be
very much impaired. The only rem
edy, Mr.. Jane says, will be in a better
and more complete net defense than
ships now have, and in plenty of de-
O to meet the torpedo boats.
No doubt Mr.. James opinion is
wise, but it only emphasizes the fact
that the whole navy business is grow
ing ridiculous. 1t has been improved,

body begins to see that it has lost its
proper proportion. Instead of ma
tions maintaining navies to protect
them, it is getting to be that naVies
are using nations to maintain them.
The lack Of a proper sense of humor
in the English and German naval
boards promises to be the death of a
fine old employment that has held it's
place among men for thousands of
years. Tax-burdened peoples, groan-
ing under the cost of naval programs,
must cry out pretty soon in a unani-
nous howl, why do we maintain
such a raft of these ridiculous ma
chimes, that cost preposterously to
make and keep, and eat their heads
off without ever doing a stroke of
productive work." AS soon as that
voice is unanimous, armament will
subside, and we suppose navies may
dwindle to what is necessary for in
ternational police work.-Harper's

PRESSED HARD
Coffee's Weight on Old Age.

When prominent men realize the
injurious effects of coffee and the
change in health that Postum can
bring they are glad to lend their tes
timony for the benefit of others.
A superintendent of public schools
in North Carolina says:
my mother, since her early child
hood, was an inveterate coffee drink
er, and had been troubled with her
heart for a number of years, and COM
planned of that weak all over feeling
and sick stomach.
Some time ago ! was making an
official visit to a distant part OF the
country and took dinner with n OF
the merchants of the place. l noticed
a somewhat peculiar favour OF the
coffee, and asked him concerning it.
He replied that it was Postum.
II was so pleased with it, that af-
ter the meal vas over, ! bought a
package to carry home with me, and
had wife prepare some for the next
meal. The whole family liked it so
we'll that we discontinued coffee and
used Postum entirely.
81 had really been at times very
anxious concerning my mothers con-
dition, but we noticed that after using
Postum for a short time she felt so
much better than she did prior to its
use, and had little trouble with her
heart and no sick stomach, that the
headaches were not so frequent, and
her general condition much improved.
This continued until she was as well
and hearty as the rest Of US.

self and the other members of the
family. but not in so marked a degree
as in the case Of my mother, as h
