Fox's LYRIC THEATRE
CBy the Fox Lyric Press-Agent.)

NE3T the FOX AyE1C EE6SS-AZ6ntsl
 In The Bridge which will be the offering by the company headed by Eleanor Cleveland at the Lyric next week the theme is that of capital and labor with the trio of central figures, "a wealthy bridge builder, his engineer and the bridge builders daughter. The title is particularly applicable for there is a bridge between capital and labor which seems always hard to cross, there is the bridge between the rich and the poor and most every love af- fair, particularly the one in this play has O bridge to surmount. The role of the capitalist will be played by Edward Nannerys the big local favor 1te. who returns to the company the coming week, that of the engineer by Bob Conness and the daughter of the rich man by Eleanor Cleveland
 This weeks splendid production of "~The Deserter' appeals to such an ex- tent that the Lyric is filled at each performance, a tribute to the star, her associates and the play itself While 1t is essentially play for the woman It is of such a character th2.t individ- s1aI hits are scored in sp1aller parts notable among which are the splendid work of Glen finders and Edwin E>rers in the concert hall scene, the clever dancing and rag singing of Josephine Lent, the splendid emotional work of Margaret Lewis in the two big acts and the always consistently clever work of Guy Harrington and wilson Humme1.

EMPIRE

'@rhe Accusing Hand. 2. showing the value of the silent third degree, writ ten by and acted under the direction of Lubin's popular producer-actor Ro- maine Fielding, is the days feature picture, in two parts. '@The Accusing Hand'' greetS the criminal at every turn of the road and eventually draws a confession from him, without one single word of accusation, showing showing that a guilty conscience needs no accuser. A very clever demonstra- ton of the value of applying the si- lent third degree. The show at this theatre runs continuously from 1880 till Il D. m. and if you only have a short time or are looking for a pleas ant way of spending an hour and a half, drop into this house any time between those hours and enjoy the ex- hibition of the Best Pictures in Town.

CASES OF INTEREST

RAILROAD CONSTRUCTIONS AS FPEdOAIMlATE CAUSE OF SUFFER- ING. On the occasion in question, a physician was on his way to visit the
 bedside of a patient who was suffering internal pain and anguish incident to
 the abnormal presentation of a child to which she was then about to give birth. On travelling upon the high way he reached a railroad crossing, which was blocked by long freight train The employees of the train were thereupon requested to open the cross ing, which request was ignored. The train continued to obstruct the high way, and detained the physician for "a period of between 30 and 40 min utes. When he finally reached his pa tfent'S bedside he found her so much exhausted from her prolonged suffer ing that he was compelled to relieve her quickly of the child, which result ed in some 1aceration of her body. In Terry V. New Orleans Great N. R. O., 50 Southern Reporter, 729, she sues the railroad company under the Mis- sissippi statute forbidding a railroad to obstruct a highway for more than five minutes. The Supreme Court of Mississippi holds that the negligence blocking the crossing was the proxi- mate cause of plaintiffs injury, and reverse judgment for defendant.
 I1ABI1PTY IO UNBOEEN CHILD FOR F'ATHEFTS DEATH. Can a child, unborn at the time of it's fa- ther's death but later born alive, maintain an action for damages against the tort-feasor responsible for the fathers death? This question aris- es in Herndon V. St. Louis & S. F. R. O., 128 Pacific Reporter, 727. Plain tiff sues in behalf of her infant child, the father of which. while an employe of defendant railroad, received injuries which later resulted in his death. Thereafter and before the birth of the child the railroad company settled with the widow, the chfId's mother, and obtained a release. Plaintiff con- tends that the child, unborn at the time of it's fathers death, was an ex- isting person, and therefore a bened- ciary in any sum recovered or to be recovered for the wrongful death of it's father. The defendant, though ad-
 hitting that the child must be regard ed as an existing person. claimed that 1t was bound by the release which, as finally written out, included claims of heirs and next of kin. The Supreme Court of Oklahoma holds that such a child is to be considered as an exist ing person at the time of it's fathers death, but that if the real contract

 standard variety, and labeled under the Pure Food and Drugs Act. Plain tiff, granting the argument that de- fendant had been no way negligent in not discovering that the food was in furious, maintained that the relation between the defendant carrier and plaintiff was such that defendant was liable in terms of insurance, and that knowledge of the poisonous defect in the food was charged to 1t. The su- preme Judicial Court of Maine held that such rigid rule could not be applied to defendant; that having pur- chased asparagus of drst-c1ass brand and labeled such, and since judging from it's odor and taste on opening the can it appeared to be of good quality, no more could have been ex- pected of it ;at least not the duty im- posed in such cases on the manufac- turers who have the opportunity of observing each stage of the process of canning the product.

LITTLE BEAUTY CHATS
superfuous Hair on the Face
BIZ BLANCHE BEACON

do not believe that there is any one beauty trouble that is so annoy ing to a woman as hair upon her face.
 Only a few young women are troubled with it, bue after thirty al- most every woman begins to find more or less hair growing on her up- per lip and about her chin.
 Many women will lay this condition to the cream she is using, but she ought to realize that face cream does not grow hair because if any enter pT-ising cream maker found that his product had this qualification, he would immediately grow rich by tell ing the bald heads about it.
 The skin grows coarser with age on most people and it is also the irony of fate that the hair falls out where you want it to stay in and comes in where you want 1t to stay out on your head and face.
 The electric needle is the best thing to remove coarse superffuous hair on the face; but you must not expect this to do the work effectua1Iy at one sit ting About twenty per cent. of the hair will come back and that has to be burned out again. You can re- move fine hair with peroxide of hy- drogen and ammonia (four parts of peroxide to one of ammonfa). You have to be a very persevering and pa dent lady to do this, as it takes about three or four years of constant use of the remedy to remove.
 In the meantime, the peroxide will bleach the hair so that 1t will be less noticeable, Pull out all the hairs with the tweezers and then dab the place with the peroxide and ammonia If it burns rub 1t with a little cold cream. This will also remove the ugly hair across the nose between
