"Last DAYS of Pompeii."

George Kleine's photodrama produc-
ton of the Last Days of Pompeii,
adapted from Lord Bulwer Lytton' s
famous novel, comes to the Columbia
Theater next week with matinees daily.
Produced in Italy, these pictures bear
the artistic stamp that characterizes the
foreign productions. Mr.. Kleine has
practically avoided the sensationally
melodramatic note and has emphasized
the idyllyic qualities. The pathetic and
hopeless love story of the blind flower
girl Nydia, is nevertheless related with
the utmost fidelity. Mr.. Kleine has es-
tablished a national reputation with his
wonderful photodrama productions OF
Quo Vadis,'' and THE Last Days of
Pompeii," and will still further add to his
reputation as the foremost photodrama
producer of America.

utely free, there being no fees of

chards, how to prune, how to cult
vate, to recognize insects and disea-
ses, and how to control them by spray
ing.
The live stock man will find a
weeks course arranged to meet his
special needs. The principles of feeds
and feeding, breeds and breeding,
live stock diseases, and the growth of
forage crops for live stock will all
