Here's the Answer to Very PuzzIins
 Question.

Just before the Christmas holidays, when the stores are thronged by the last minute rush.; when you've often racked your brains for an idea that will solve the question of what to give husband, father, Brother Tom or Jack; when you've looked back on former trials, due to your having picked the wrong tie or a misfit shirt or socks that were too snnall-did it ever occur to you that you might settle the matter quickly and satisfactorily without los- ing any beauty sleep by giving him d glass humidor of Prince Albert, the national joy smoke?
 It's a neat looking crystal-glass re- ceptacle, holding 3, pound Of the pest liked tobacco made. Whenever the supply is exhausted it may readily be replenished, and the humidor keeps the tobacco moist. fresh and fragrant all the time.
 You will find it in all stores where tobacco is sold, and you needn't hesi- tate to walk right in and ask for it. The clerk won't bite and the tobacco can't, either. The bite has been taken out of P. A. by & wonderful patented process. Think of the pleasure it will save you. It's gift that will not be slipped to the janitor or the office boy, like tie that doesn't strike his fancy
 And Furthermore, when The" is thinking of gift for a business asso- ciate or acquaintance or male rela- tive, help him out of the difficulty by suggesting 8 crystal-gIass humidor cannot be duplicated in acceptability by anything else at so nominal a cost.

time, and is distinctly story of the sea. It is filled with thrilling events and gorgeous scenery and the great climax is withheld until the very last foot of the film, so that the tenseness of the plot-interest is never lost for moment. Bessie Eyton and Thomas Santschi are the leading couple in the story and the fact that they are sur rounded by the great beauties of the Pacific coast as background makes this picture one of great promise. His Dominant Passion is the Vitagraph feature with William Humphries in one of his greatest character crea- tons. while The Girl of the Tenements is the sterling Biograph offering When Slippery Slim Met the Champion is the big western comedy. A big feature for Saturday is another in the splendid se- ries of Alice Joyce and Tom Moore dramas. This last named is a beau tiful story of great intensity and intro duces both of the favorites.
