THE ARKWAY.

In Vegetable Vengeance Vies With Victor's Vows" to be shown at the Arkway tonight, Harry and Jack are both in love with their boss daughter. She gives a reception in honor of Prof. Treble, musician, and both the boys are invited. They both buy flowers to present to the object of their heart. While Jack has gone to lunch Harry fills Jack s basket with vegetables. Jack treats Harry in the same manner not know ing that Harry has played a trick on him.
 When they arrive at the reception and hand Miss Morgan the supposed flowers and she finds the vegetables great excitement follows. The boys get in fight with the vegetables but the guests suffer most from the duel. The butler throws both out after they have broken up the reception.
 The next morning the boys arrive at the office and the boss fires them. They then find out Miss Morgan is engaged to the professor.

HOW THE FLY BREEDS.

In the spring as the warm days come the fly that has dozed about all winter in some warm corner stirs her self and seeks a place where she may deposit her eggs. Remembering where she was born she flies to some manure pile or some other place where organic filth is abundant and deposits sitting of eggs-about 120 eggs. In few hours a small white worm matches out of each egg; it eats and grows and molts. leaving it's skin behind. In five days it is shut up in a case like butterfly in a cocoon, less than one-quarter inch long. In another five days the full grown fly breaks from it's prison and begins it's destructive career.
 John Ruskin calls the fly the "queen of the air." but Edward Halford Ross, an English scientist, says she is the queen of everything and anything unclean." He says the flys life is a grand dirty life And so it is. Born in the midst of vleness, fed on organ ic waste, and engaged in the work of spreading misery, it deserves to be called an outcast and to be made on in truth.

 Steve joins Trampas and the cat tie thieves. The Virginan is selected to run the cattle thieves down and in the discharge of his duty is seriously injured. Molly finds the Virginian and nurses him back to health and promises to marry him. He hears that Trampas is in camp and sets out in search of him. They meet in one of the principal streets and fight a duel. After Trampas has paid the penalty, the Virginian and Molly take up the thread of their dreams in peace.

to comprehend the true significance
Of that phrase uttered so carelessly by
newspaper readers-Notre Dame de

The whole of the ground was in
heaps. There was no spot, literally,
on which a shell had not burst. Vege.
tation was quite at an end. The shells
seemed to have sterilized the earth.
There al not a tree, not a bush. not
q blade of any sort, not a root. Even
the rankest weeds refused to sprout
in the perfect desolation. And this
vas the incompatible soil of France.

through the pitted brown slopes, and
nothing could be seen from them but
vast membranes of barbed wire

HELPING N IN CHINA
Practical Work That 10 esina Done
by League Of American Ladies'
WORKING In the Orient.

To Mrs. Lolita Carswell Hume. an
American, belongs the credit Of or
ganizing and pushing to success the
Woman's Social Service league of
Changsha, China. Changsha is the
only city in the Chinese empire in
! which the commission sent out by the
China Medical Board of the Rockefel-
fer Foundation found hospital social
service actively developed.
The Woman's Social Service league
Of Changsha was organized in 1913,
and since the beginning has been i
distinctly Chinese institution, for Mrs.
Hume, believing in native leadership,
has steadily refused to assume any Of
fetal position. Not only is the men
bership made up exclusively Of native
women, but all the funds except $3.50
used during the first year OF it's work
were given by Chinese. The wife OF
the governor Of the province in which
Changsha IL located is an active mem
be" of the league and besides her reg
ular membership fee gave $50 to the
work.
"Soon after organization we discov-
cred that the work had q double sig
nificance," said Mrs. Hume when tell
ing of efforts in establishing the
league and getting it going. "On the
one hand it offered practical relief to
the poor while teaching them methods
of self-protection against disease and
by offering facilities for relief from
disease and unhygienic living. 1t also
furnished the w%ell-to-do, leisure class
of Chinese women an opportunity for
performing unselflsh service for 9TH
ers. This is something they have sore
ly needed to save them from the dead
ening effect of life without outward
expression. The enthusiastic response
of these women proved that a definite
point of contact had at last been found
between the two classes of women in
China"
Before going to China Mrs. Hume
studied nursing at Johns Hopkins uni
versity under Adelaide Nutting. The
methods employed at Changsha are
American adapted to Chinese condi-
lions. Even the book "Holt's Care of
the Baby" vas carefully adapted to
the use of Chinese mothers before be-
ing distributed as a circular supple
menting league lectures to mothers.
