One Of Washlngton's photopIay houses
yesterday showed q bill consisting Of
nine reels. the feature being q slx-reel
special film which was one OF the best
and most impressiveiy beautiful and ar
tistic that have ever seen This bill
was shown for q 1o-cent admission.
There are two ways to look at this:
One view Is that the public doesn't want
nine-reel show. They either leave be-
for its over, lose interest or frankly fall
asleep as / have seen several people do.
Another view Is that the theater which
shows such a performance for such a
low price Of admission defeats Its own
ends. Il cannot show very many such
performances In the course, Of a day
and evening-it therefore cannot enter
tain very many audiences. Furthermore,
1t spoils the publieAeads them TO ex-
pect too much for too little. A three or
four reel show Is the legitimate size Of q
io-eent show. The nickle admission
should be discarded as unworthy Of the
entire moving picture enterprise. Where
a moving-pIcture house shows features
as well as comedy and dramatic single
reel subjects. the price Of admission
should be at least Is or % cents
Pop" Anderson says: Il remember when
there was only one moving picture place
in Washington. and that was at he
northeast corner Of Tenth and D north
west. II people want any more proof Of
my being the Oldest Inhabitant, b'gosh,

The mysterious Miss Beautiful" who
appears in Thanhouser society plays, is
Adele Rey in real life. She is a tall.
striking girl Of the Harrison Fisher type,
with grey eyes and an abundance OF
dark. Titan hair. Formerly she played
in musical comedy. but eagerly deserted
to pictures where the freedom Of the
life strongly attracted her. She has been
called the girl of the air" because, OF
her passion for aviation Miss Rey has
made numerous flights, and now is seriA
ously entertaining a project for making
n transatlantic trip by aeroplane- Be
sides being a fearless young woman and
a charming actress, she has a delightful
singing voice and Is an accomplished

theaters, she replied:
They would be far more attractive to
many people, believe, IL the films were
accompanied by the best music to be pro-

TUESDAY,, JULY Z, 1914.
According to astrology, the sun today
exercises an adverse sway, which should
be read as exceedingly unfavorabIe for
dealings of any sort with persons Of su-
perior rank or with those who have pow
er to thwart even well-laid plans
1t is held as an exceedingly unforsunate
aspect under which to seek employment
or recognition for achievement in business
enterprises. Employees should be exceed
ingly. cautious, the seers declare, lest
they be subjected to unjust or humiliat-
ing discipline.
This is a time when all who desire
favors should be wary. All requests for
cooperation should be postponed until Z
more auspicious day.
For lawsuits this rule Is considered
most unfortunate. Affairs that involve
judges, magistrates and mayors are sub
ject to an i'll omen All this month roy
atty is under an evil rule, the seers de-
clare The King OF Italy is especially
menaced by troubles that may be serious
1t has been predicted that great pro-
gress in aerial navigation will be made
within the next few months. A famous
man will lead in the study of air routes,
and the skies will be charted, IL the stars
are read Alright
In connection with research to pro-
mote the conquest of the air discoveries
relating to the sway Of the planets and
luminaries will revive general faith in
astrology, the seers declare.
Literary folk are warned to conserve
their health, as there is~a prophecy that
many prominent writers will suffer Ill
ness. The death Of famous man is fore
shadowed.
The President of the United States is
likely to be troubled by the machina-
tions of foes, who will cause him much
concern. The last days of this month viii
bring him anxiety.
Persons whose birthdate It Is have a
threatening augury. They should not be
betrayed into quarrels with business as
sociates. Both men and women who are
employed may suffer disappotntments.
Children born on this day may have
a great delight in whatever Is fantastic.
and their imagination may cause them
to contract untruthful habits. They will
not be practical in business matters.

BARBARA TENANT.

Miss Tennant. leading lady OF the Eclair
Stock Company, appeared at the age OF
twelve as solo dancer in one Of the great
London pantomimes. This was the out
come OF a little performance she had
given at a charity benefit in one Of the
London halls. A theatrical manager who
was present offered her an engagement
as premiere danseuse for the London
pantomime. II enjoyed a long run in
London and then went on a tour among
the principal towns Of Great Britain. This
was really the starting point of her
career in legitimate theatrical work
After leaving school, at the age Of
eighteen, Miss Tenant played in The
Private Secretary" Charles Aunt. "
The Rivals" Romeo and Juliet" His
Majesty's Servant" and many others
Four years ago. while visiting some
friends in Canada, she gathered together
a small company Of talented artists and
gave q series Of recitals in the principal

precIative and by being so bring out the
best there Is in an artist.
She played three successive seasons in
The Seven Sisters" under Daniel Froh-
man.
One day on her return from a trip to
England she met an old friend on Broad
way who Informed her with much pride
that she was acting in moving pictures.
She practically forced Miss Tenant into
a moving picture house to view some
films where her eyes were opened to a
realization OF what the motion picture
really meant 70 the artist and the public.

the picture / saw had as its leading

A BoUD0IR CAP.

What q trousseau It was! lies and
pftes Of beautiful things carefully packed
in a huge brsss-bound cedar chest that
might have been old. but which was very
new-that Is. but a year Of residence
had II enjoyed in q corner of the en-
gagged girls room.
There were negligees, night robes, lin
gerie underwear OF all descriptions, and
a hundred and one other things that the
girls own skilful fingers had fashioned
and various friends had Iabored over
lovingly. Yet one article in that chest.
carefully boxed so that II could not be
crushed. was its chief treasure-a-b -beauti-
full lace-and-pearl boudoir cap.
II was a soft little Dutch cap made
of cream aII-over lace in a lovely shadow
pattern over another cap. lining
Of cream net. The cap itself was softly
gathered. and the turn-back nap. which
in most Dutch caps Is cut perfectly plain
and straight. is Of the same shape, but
shirred softly in half-inch rows. White
satin wire was used to wire the flap
about its edges to keep II In place. The
three edges of this nap. meaning the
back and the two sides. were edged with
pearls.
Upon close examination, It was found
that one long string Of pearl beads was
used. The beads were strung so that
they had not much room to slip. and
then they were basted on with whipping
stitches about half an inch apart.
The whipping stitches slipped between
the beads and were entirely concealed. It
was evident that when the cap became
soiled II would be quite a simple matter
to rip out the basting threads which were
about the beads and the wire. After the
cap was laundered It would be even q
more simple matter to renew the bastins
threads. as, Of course, the pearls would
not be washable.
II pearls are not used upon the cap,
some pretty colored beads, turquoise,
coral. amethyst, sapphire, or any other
kind of mock Jewel that is preferred,
can be used
