The Price She Paid

The Price She Paid. the latest sensational dramatised of ferin9 of the. east, will be seen at the Pastime on February 18th. Reports of the play have come from many cities in which it has been presented and without ex- ceptlon the verdict is unanimous that it is one of the greatest as well as one of the most absorb ing plays ever witnessed in this country.
 In many plays the struggle of honest girls has heen depicted, and much has been made of the dramatic possibilities that sur round a young girl fighting for her virtue. Never before has the story been so forcebly pre- sented or darlngly told.
 Scenically ''The Price She Paid'' is a marvellous production, and the fact that the cast has been carefully selected from the ranks of the best players is a guarantee of the exquisite man. ner in which the story is told.
 When The Price She Paid" was first given in New York, Augustus Thomas, the playwright said T have never seen better drama, the play is a theatrical gem and will last for many years to come"
 The famous actress, Miss Syl- vla Summers, takes the leading role.

WHY is IT?

Did you ever worry teacher with
this question. Can cold travel faster
than heath"
If you did she probably told you
what Sir Francis Bacon, the great
scientist, said about knowing how to
ask questions, for even teacher can
not answer this question put in this
way, as there is no such thing as
cold. You may have cold nose on
cold day and you may drink cold
water any day, but when you speak
of cold what you really mean is less
heat and not thing existing by itself
as cold.
When the tea gets cold it is simply
less hot than when it simmered on
the fire. When your fingers are numb
with cold they are less hot than when
you stood beside the fire. So you can
see that as this thing cold you hear
so much about does not exist it can
not travel.
It's different with heat. Heat or
the rays of heat we feel when we
are near fire or a light travels be-
cause this kind of heat is the same as
light, and light, you know, travels at
smashing pace of $4,000 miles a
second, and so far no one ever heard
of anything that would keep UP
with it.

tax due in Minnesota on the estate of
the late Charles G. Gates has been
dropped and the states claim for $751;
