PLAZA THEATRE.

As special added attraction at the Plaza theatre the first three days of this week AIanager CaIlan has secured Charles Chaplin's latest and most laughabIe success entitled Dough and Dynanite,'' a special two reel feature released by the Keystone company and fans of iniInttab1e Charles in his famous drunk character are in for some real, honest fun. The action concerns a. strike by the bakers in a large restaurant, which leaves the baking of the establishment to the lot Of Chaplin and Chester ConkIin, who were engaged as walters. If the en- tire action had not been purely farcf- cal and in the hands of less reputable 2 artists than bhis clever pair, the incl dents that follow might temporarily if not permanently impair one's taste for rolls and coffee as a morning repast, but such Is not the case. for it is all funny and not a scent of vl1garity Is evidenced in the entire two reels of dlm.
 1eThe Flirting Widows" heraIaed as the seasons greatest musical comedy offering, will be seen fn the headline position on the vaudeville program. ttThe Flirting widows introduces much that is new in the production of comedy musicales, showing a magnih- cent array of effects in the way of costuming and scenic eQuip1nent, and there are pretty girls in abundance. The cast is large and the music, song and. dance numbers Of the most de- Hghtful sort imaginable, so that talk ing all in all. 1t looks as though lovers of vaudeville are in for rare treat.
 The remainder of the vaudeville pro- gram consists of Billie Cree, a win some, smiling, gifted coGnedienne who has a way all her own for entertaining an audience; sIn SnowIand,' z acclaimed by vaudeville critics as the prettiest scenic novelty in years and requiring the services Of three artists; the Hay ward Sisters, two charming young wo- men with splendid voices and beau tlfuL extensive wardrobe, and CrIrnbly & Glass, two merry young men in . singing, talking and dancing ekdt.
 The photop1ay program includes, in addition to the Chaplin picture, s'Zip the Dodger,s' another Keystone com cry: Our Mhitl1al Girl, and eeThe Face at the Window

'CABlRIA" GREAT
 PHOTO SPECTACLE
Produced In Natural CoIors, It Is Pronounced Real
 Work of Art.

Cabiria,'' the great motion picture film which is to be offered at the new Poll theatre all week of NOV End. is one of the most beautifn specimens of motion picture photography ever pro duced. Regarded merely as a work Of art 1t is alone worthy Of inspection ir- respective of it's dramatic and spec tacular properties. Parts of the dIm are made stereoptic that is to say they have all appearances and solidity and relief of the original subject. They look real, so real that they have depth and solfdity to degree heretofore not shown in a motion picture
 This wonderful effect is obtained by 8 patended! device of the Its1as Film company, who produced the picture. Steroscopfc motion pictures have long been sought and tsCabirfa'' is the first to offer the effect. The picture Ioolzs like itself both in respect to soltdityr and depths Of field. Tn parts the pic ture is superbly tinted and toned and you have wonderfully realistic repre- sentations of an eruption, burning ships on the water, Alphine views, etc All these are shown in what you may approximately term natural cOEors.
 There are sdIhos1etted effects, moon@ giving opportunity for the introduc- ton oh artistieally chosen colors. The entire picture is tinted and toned throughout, not root of plain film being included in the two and three quarter hours exhibition. stCSabfria in fact may be regarded as a natural color stexescopic work Of art, which all students of the motion picture should make 8 point of seeing.

sCANDAIMONGERs AND
 A GIRLS FAIR NAME

':A1aa! They had been friends in
 youth;
 But whispering tongues can poison
 truth,
 And constancy lives in realms above;
 And life is thorny and youth is vain,
 Doth work like madness in the
 brain.''
 The most circunaspect maiden needs to be careful of appearance when she gets a beau. If she lives where neigh bors are inquisitive---in short, keep tabs on her---it behooves her not to permit him to remain in her parlor after 10:S0 of an evening.
 If she should remain out with him until the wee srna' hours. the scandal mongers would be sure to put their heads together, surmising every other reason which kept her out except the right one. She may not have thought it needful to explain to her dear neighbors that she had been detained at the bedside of Q relative who was i'll, and that her soifcftous lover walt CT patiently to escort her safely home. If the neighbors espy a shadow on the curtain revealing 8 devoted pair kiss ing each other good night, she does not feel called upon to explain that 1t was that same dear old auntie who had put her arms around him and kissed him. as she thanked him for his devotion to her at the time she so needed it.
 It does not take the scandalmongers long to pick the best of reputations to shreds.
 There's nothing. unless it be the down of a thistle, that Is let loose at the slightest jar, which flies about as quickly as gossip concerning a pretty girl If one of the women has c2s- ually remarked to the young man,

Mrs. Believes and Miss Jones were
the leaders at the hotel. Nobody had
made them so, but they had assumed
that role. There was plenty of Cos

clacked. The only woman who did
not join in it was the shy, quiet little
woman of thirty or so, who sat alone
and unfriended at the other end of
the porch.
Nobody had ever troubled to take
any interest in dowdy little Miss
Wentworth, and nobody was likely
to. What aroused the antagonism
of Mrs, Believes and the rest was
that she didn't seem to mind being
ostracised. In fact, she had been
overheard to say that she had come
