Hattie's Helpful Hints.

Many people have trouble keeping
the blankets on the bed in cold
weather, the constant striving to
make the tops come we'll over the
shoulders pulls them up, and that in
turn cramps the legs. A splendid
way to avoid all this is to sew piece
of strong cloth to the blanket along
the folded end large enough to tuck
under the mattress at the foot.
To remove slivers- Fill bottle
with hot water, place the afflicted
part over the top and press tightly.
This will draw down the flesh and in
a short time the steam will remove
the silver.
To save bobbin winding When
there is a great deal of sewing on
hand, place a spool of thread on the
extra spindle, fasten on the bobbin,
put it on the winder and allow it to
fill while you are stitching the regular
sewing.
Neat seams may be made on fine
material by using the smallest hem
mer. This does away with french
scanning, a saving of time and thread.
When hanging out clothes pin the
table cloths and sheets on the line
by the hens. 1t will save them from
the wind, and they will be folded

POISON is FOUND IN MANY
GEORGIA PEACHES-oTHER
NEWS FROM ATLANTA.

Atlanta, Aug. 17.-Arsenate of lead,
deadly poison, has been discovered
in canned peaches from the Fort VAL
ley peach orchard district, and as a
result of the discovery P. A. Methvin,
the states pure food inspector, will
probably condemn the output Of a
number of the largest canneries in
the state.
The poison got into the peeling of
the peaches from a spray used on
the trees to kill worms and brown
rot. AS general thing the peach
growers use the spray early, so that
it will not accumulate on the fruit,
but this year the unprecedented heavy
rainfall made it necessary to spray a
second time.
A discoloration of the peaches led
to Inspector Methvin's discovery. The
peaches canned for pie filters" are
not peeled, and it was principally in
this class of canned goods that the
poison was noted.

Will Approve Bill,

Atlanta, Aug. 17.-Although Cover
nor Brown believes that it is just for
man to be taxed on old dog Tray"
and while he is mindful of the fact
that the bill enacted by the legisla-
ture abolishing the dog tax will cut
off $4,000 of the states revenue, he
nevertheless will approve the bill and
thereby make it law, and thereby
hangs a right interesting little tale.
A number of legislators voted for
the bill because they knew it would
mean political death at the hands of
their constituents if they didn't vote
for it. They are really in favor of
continuing the dog tax, and since the
adjournment of the legislature they
have gone quietly to the governor and
urged him to veto the bill
This particular brand of patriotism
and political courage is not to the
governors liking, and he has decided
that since the legislators put them
selves in the hole they can stay
there.

Police Are Puzzled.

1t is a puzzle and source or annoy
ance to the chief, and all of his de-
tectives and all of his men cannot
solve it. The city's chief of construc-
ton has been appealed to, but he is
not equal to the task.
Water is flowing into the basement
of the barracks faster than three
men can remove it with a big suction
pump and nobody knows where it
comes from.
There is no water pipe in the drive
way alongside the building where the
flow seems to originate, and one OF
the old policemen on the force claims
there is no spring in the vicinity, for
he patroled Decatur street before
there was a building anywhere near
the station.

LYcEUM

Patrons Of the New Lyceum were
unanimous in their approval of THE
Cherry Blossoms" billed for the week at
the Pennsylvania avenue house. With
Jack Perry as the stellar light of the
show. there Is hardly dull moment
from the rise of the curtain until the
finale.
Perry keeps the audience we'll sup
piled with laughs. but has not a mon
opoly on the comedy. Two other COM
edians, Frank Dobson and George
Payne. also shine as merrymakers. The
first part of the bill is What Happened
to McGuirk?" with Jack Perry as Nc
Guirk. The chief comedian is assisted
by Jack Rose. George Clifford, Frank
Dobson, George Payne. Brownie Carroll.
Ethel Hall. and Lillian Perry. With
this group Of principals is a handsomely
costumed chorus in graceful dances.
Ethel Hall sings "One Beautiful
Night" and vies with the chorus, which
sings Down Where the Love Blossoms
Grow" in commanding applause
Widow McCarthys Boarders' takes
up the second part of the bill. and the
burlesque concludes with a number of
living pictures which brought round
after round of applause.

ACADEMY

Perhaps the first play ever written
claiming to be decentralization Of a
painting" is THE Angelus." playing
this week at the Academy. 1t is in a
way a religious play, but there is suf-
Ificient action to keep-the audience keyed
lup to a high pitch.
The story, based upon Jean Francois
iAdillets famous painting of the same
name concerns the love of Jeff Norton
for the beautiful Sheila Beveridge.
Ralph Harding, the villain of the plot.
lundermipes their happiness and might
have won the girl had It not been for
the interference Of Father 'Brien, who
directs affairs to a happy ending.
Harrington Reynolds, well remem-
Ibered here for his performance in The
Rosary last season, takes the leading
role OF Father OBrien, and gives a
creditable Interpretation. Reynolds, 1t
may be said, is the youngest man on
the stage with perfectly white hair. 1t
1s the result Of a severe fever contract
ed in the tropics when he was q MEM
lber of the United StatsS Army, and Is of
great advantage in his presentation of
the role of the priest He shows up
best, perhaps, in the Intensely dramatic
meeting with Harding.
The other members of the cast are
we'll up to the Academy standard, and
the play Is wholesome and refreshing.

!. CANADIAN WOODS
Pierre of the Plains" Well
Done by Popular Stock

The announcement that "Pierre of the

at the Avenue playhouse this week. is
a nelodrama, Is entirely superfiuous,
for one moment spent jim listening to the
sounds emanating from a highly excited
and enthusiastic audience, proclaims that
viliainy, courage, and a. beautiful woman
are all mixed up in TRUE melodramatio
style.
Stories of the great Canadian north
west are incomplete without the type
Of devil-may-care, lovabae, and strong
hero such as is Pierre, the halfbreed,
who shows that he Is white. clean
white inside and willing to risk his
skin ten tines over, for the mere trust
of Jen Galbraith. French patois is more
than hard to learn, owing to the gut
ituraI infections of the ''r," but Mr.. Van
Buren, manages to impersonate the
French Canadian halfbreed, not only by
an able rendition of the dialect. but by
assuming the mannerisms which identi-
fy themselves with Pierre.s Irresistible
personality.
