"Peg o. My Heart"

peg o. Ny Heart the most delight,
full comedy the American stage has
known in many years, will be the at
traction at the opera house Saturday
March rs, matinee and night. This is
the j. Hartley Manners play in which
Miss Laurette Taylor made such ter
rible hit at the Cort theatre, New York,
that she Is now rounding out her second
year OF an uninterrupted run there with
capacity record so far. II is consid.
cred one of the marvels OF present day
theatricals.
Oliver Morosco the producer has
chosen Miss Marion Dentler, winsome
little actress OF unusual ability, to play
the role of Peg in the company which
is to be seen here. He has surrounded
her with a cast which rivals that now
playing in New York. peg o. My
Heart" with its sweetness and quaint
humor. is an attraction that endures
in the mind as the happicsst of mem
cries. 1t is play for all classes and
the young enjoy it just as much as the
grown-ups There is only one "Peg O.
My Heart" and it will be years and
years before this comedy will have
rival worthy of the name.--Advt.

ATTITUDES IN OKLAHOMA.
Report Issued By the Geological Survey
Showing Many Exact Elevations.

A recent publication of the United
States Geographical Survey bulletin
564 should be OF considerable impor-
lance to engineers and surveyors It
shows the exact elevation above mean
sea level of more than ] 800 points in
Oklahoma as determined by spirit level
ing done by the survey from 1895 to
1912, inclusive, under the direction of
X. b, Marshall, chief geographer, in co
operation with the territory OF Okla
homa. from 1905 to 1907, inclusive, and
with the state in 1908, 1911, and 1912.
These exact elevations have been de-
termined by the geological survey in
connection with its topographic mapping.
Their value as starting points for en-
cheering projects requiring their own
surveys is evident.
Though large number of elevations
are shown on the Topographic maps OF
areas in Oklahoma published by the sur
yey, they are stated on the maps only
to the nearest foot, whereas the bulletin
gives the elevation to the thousandtl of
a foot and the points are SO described
as to be easily identified.

Candy and Box Makers Wages.

The New York Factory Investigating
commission, which since early fall has
been studying wages in confectionery
paper-box and shirt making, and the
department stores, presented report to
the legislature on February Is. Cover
ing only the confectionery and paper
box industries, it represented wage sta
tistics for 10000 people.
The report shows that in the eonfee-
tionery factories more than half of the
men receive less than $40 week and
half of the women receive less than So
d week More than two-thirds of the
girls below Is receive less than $3.50,
and of the women above that age more
than half receive 81 or less.
In paper box making, the majority of
women workers receive less than $3.50
week and about half of those over Is
years of age receive less than SO week
Senator Wagner, chairman of the com
mission is quoted as saying: "No man
can live properly and be selfsustaining
on wage of So or Sc or 81 week
Yet we find thousands of women receiy-
ing those amounts. 1t is clear that
something must be done to remedy this
situation. The Survey.

WHY DOCTORS NO LONGER
CLAIM TO nCURE" PEOPLE

A few years ago it was common thing
for the family doctor to say, II will cure
you in a few days" This cheerful
prophecy often gave the patient new hope
and courage but it is no longer good
form. Doctors still ''cure" malaria and
few other troubles in which their medi-
cines have direct or ''specifc" action
on the virus of the disease. In other
cases they simply give supporting nedi-
cine and keep up the strength OF the
patient until nature effects a cure.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills cure chlorosis
and other trouble due to thin blood be-
cause they have specific action on the
blood, building it up, purifying and en-
riching it. This direct action on the
blood also makes them the best support
ing and strengthening medicine. II you
are thin and weak, breathless after slight
exertion, if you have palpitation OF the
heart, gas on the stomach, cold hands
and feet, if you are nervous and easily
irritated and show other signs OF weaken
ed vitality, try these Strengthening pills at
once and let the rich, red blood cure you.
Get box today at the nearest drug store
and begin at once to build up your health.

FINANCES IN PARIS
IN A CHAOTIC STATE
All Banks of the French Capital in Nego-
tiations, 1t Has Been Re-
ported

| Paris, March GA well known au-
thority on French finance says that the
situation in financial as well as political
| circles here is chaotic and that he is
! pessimistic about conditions, although
be does not fear any big crash is i'm,
minent
All the banks in Paris, be said, are in
some unhealthy negotiation and much
money is bound to he lost. All the cash
available is short time money and it is
impossible to obtain large loans for a
long period. He instanced the Brazil
Railroad company as one of those most
likely to be in difficulties and to meet
with heavy losses.
According to this authority the ap.
preaching general election may help to
improve the situation. He blamed the
banks for issuing securitiec during the
recent good times without exercising
proper care for the sake of big profits.
The financial writer for one OF the big
dailies said he had heard rumors that
several important banks aae in difficult
ties. All have been gorged he said, with
Balkan treasury notes, but the Servian
loan has eased the situation.
One section of the Socialists place
the blame for the situation on the crush
ing burden of military expenses in con
nection with the three-year service. but
the cause must be sought further back.
The budgets have been finanially un-
sound for years. Legislation for cleo
pioneering purposes, such as the pur-
chase of the Western railway and old
age pensions caused the epenses to ex-
coed by far the original estimates The
finance ministers did not face the deficit,
but filed the hole by digging another.
Trade depression, he went on, is only
at its beginning. Frgnce has enormous
capital invested in South America which
may ultimately prove profitable only on
the condition that cheap money will al
low things TO be kept going. He referred
to Brazil, especially its railroads, as the
danger spot. All confidence seems to
have been lost and the people seem to
think that no safe place for the invest
ment of their money exists. Even the
best American railroads have lost their
regulations.
Much money has been invested in elec-
trio securities, which is new form of
investment in France, and there is need
of cheap money to keep the thing going.
Germanys attitude is causing uneasi-
ness. The general election may give
France a Chamber which win inspire con
fdence. for at present, he said. the feel
ing is general that cit cannot last, with
out anybody really knowing what he
