DOLLY DALRYMPLE CALLS ON MISS
CLARA JOEL, STAR" OF "WTTTIIN THE LAW"
BY DOLLY DALRYMPLE
TO MISS JOEL

TO MISS JOEL.
A tuneful voice-voice of gold
A lovely face when all is told;
A smile as if some wondrous scent
Were waited from the orient;
Two eyes like jewels-where flaming
fire
Seems burning with a hearts desire;
And alternate with raclxing tear
Your ripping laugh, rings pure and
clear
Oh, wonder creature-beauteous
Your eyes-your hands-your lips
your hair,
In quaint conjunction proclaim you're
young,
And to these charms my song is sung.
Yesterday called on Miss Clara Joel,
the star of within the Law
Pretty name, she has-hasn't she?
But you should see the girl who owns
the name.
She's the prettiest actress that I've
ever interviewed, and that's saying a
lot, for I've done all of them who are
worth while.
I've never seen anything out of a
picture that could approach Miss Joel
in looks.
She's the most exquisitely beautiful
creature 1 ever saw
And her looks are real" too.
She doesn't take off her hair Of her
complexion, and her wonderful blue
gray eyes are a perfect joy!
1t was high noon when / sent in my
card at the attractive home of Mr.. and
Mrs. A. P. Rich, who are Miss Joers
hospitable hosts during her engage
ment. and when the youthful star"
came in to see me, for just about two
minutes, ! was so stunned by her beau
ty that I forgot all about what I was
there for.
She was as radiant as the day itself,
and as we sat in the beautiful drawing
room with the soft shade and nuances
rejecting the most exquisite coloring
of the young womans pretty self,
Just summed Miss Joel up as the love-
liest thing I'd ever seen.
Hers is kind of beauty that is very
appealing.
It just grips you like "hooks OF steel"
and you find yourself wanting TO hug
her right tight and kiss her right
sweet. and then some more
OF course you can'ts
Because
You don't know her well enough to
be taking such liberties.
But
That doesn't keep you from wanting
to, Just the same.
Most actresses are afraid Of the SIM
light--mortnlly afraid Of III!
They rather prefer the rose lights and
the soft tints.
Well

Fruit Candy.

Fruit candies require no cooking
and can be easily and quickly made.
1t is best to use confectionery sugar,
as this may be more easily nodded.
The sugar is fhoistened with various
fruit juices to obtain various colors.
The sugar should be separated into
an many portions as there are colors
and moistened with enough Of the
Juice to enable one to mold easily.
The mixture should then be formed
into little balls and rolled in granu-
lated sugar.
Grape Juice makes delicate layen.
der-colored candy; orange Juice q light
yellow; cranberry and currant jellies
more or less diiated-different
shades Of brown are obtained by mix
ing cocoa with the sugar before add
Ing moisture. Cream and white Of
egg make the white candies, and the
yolk Of egg makes bright yellow.

nuts and raisins between two layers

Advice Given by Writer to Those
Auto Drivers Who Make Use
of the Country Roads.
DO NOT FOLLOW OTHER CAR
Those Who PorsIst In Travelling Along
Exactly the Same Lines a. the
Other Fellow Arc Largely Re-
sPonsible for Spelling the
Highways.

Have you ever stopped to think that
you, Mr.. Automobile Owner, can do q
lot to help along the good roads move
ment and preserve the surface of the
highways without 30 much as donating
cent toward their upkeep7
do not mean that you are to be
exempt from doing your share toward
helping to solve the problem OF good
roads, for the future great advantage
OF the gasolene-p.opelled vehicle will
lie IL the pleasures and business ad.
VantaSes gained In travelling from
town to town, city to city and state
to state, says a writer in the Chicago
Record-Herald.
In this article have been asked to
deal with the touring motorist who
knows not the meaning of the word
economy In using country roads. Or
might better put 1t by saying that l
have been asked to call the attention
OF the automobile owner and truck
driver to their lack OF appreciation Of
good roads.
When an automobile owner or driv-
er strikes a piece of bad road he sure
ly realizes 1t, and either expresses or
feels dissatisfaction. Very often, how
ever, others OF his kind are RESPONSE.
BILE for it's condition.
For the year OF 1914 why not make
resolution that you will do your lit
tie share toward preserving the good
roads and helping the bad ones?
The first and most important les
son In preservation OF the highways
is found In the motto adopted by one
OF the good roads clubs In Texas,
Don't Drive in the Rut!"
Examples innumerable In all parts
of the country might be recited in this
| article where fine pieces Of highway
or a translate road In its entirety
has been destroyed by automobiles
who persist in travelling on exactly
the same lines as the other fellow.
How often have you seen a well
oiled country road In fairly good con-
dition or a new section OF highway
Just built become almost impossible
by constant usage Of O rut that was
first marked by the initial car to trav.
ell over II.
Almost without an exception every
piece of good road In the country is
sooner or later destroyed by careless
ness on the part of the owner or his
chauffeur. Six inches of road that ia
often twelve feet wide is called upon
to stand the strain of all the machines
that pass over 1t.
After these ruts are started and
the surface has been broker; thra;,-h
the chuck holes and dust holes come,
and In many seasons you have the
water to contend with, which softens
the surface and decreases. the EN-.
cheney OF the material used In making
the road.
Don't drive in the rut" would be a
splendid motto for all motorists to
adopt and then live up to It would
save millions of dollars annually in
the building Of roads, increase the
pleasures Of the tourist many fold and
In the end save the auto
