Julia Swayne Gordon, in the ti;le
role in this photo drama, is a sort
of superwoman in the perpetration of

qualities, but they are pretty we'll

side of her forceful nature. She as
sists her husband, a gang leader, in
robbing a judges home where she is
employed as nurse, and when her hus-
band is killed she takes charge of the
gang herself, meanwhile retaining The
judges son, whom she rescued from
the burning house. Having reached
maturity, the son knows nothing of
the woman's professional career and
naturally believes her to be his moth

clever detectives unrayels a crime

ready to do the dramatically correct
thing, she swallows poison.
Mrs. Gordon gives a capital per-

and romance. The principal part Of
the orphan Samanthy, is acted with
sympathetic charm by Margarita
Fisher, who has the good fortune 20

Most of the scenes in this newest
Mutual Masterpicture have the nat
ural background of forest, hill and
stream. and the result is a succession
of pictures that are complete in artis-
tic excellence and realistic detail
But what is far more important, the
play is not only superior as photo
production, it is wonderfully acted by
a company of stars of first cramauc
rank. You will thoroughly enjoy it.
1t is such motion pictures that mark
the triumph of the silent drama
Friday, Geo. Kleine presents the
great laughing success, who's Who

FIRE Oss AJAX

A tax of SO a year to pay for what
we burn is a heavy one. 1t is equiv
alent to SIS a year for the head Of
each family of four or five. The United
States Geological Survey, in its fire
bulletin covering the fire losses for a
singel year, 1907, figures that, on act
ual property losses of $2l5,0S4,709 for
that year, the people really paid a
tax of $456,4S 900, because of the eX-
cess premiums over insurance paid,
and the heavy cost of fire protection
due to bad construction. This tax
exceeded the total v.aue of the gold
silver, copper, and petroeum pro
duced in the cuntry in that year. To
emphasize the loss more specifically,
the buildings consumed, if placed on
lots of Co feet front, would line both
sides of street extending from New
York to Chicago. This enormous street
of dissolution and ruin would be filled
with the head and disabled. At every

Every householder should make a
personal inspection of his residence

HIGH COST OF FIRE WASTE
Is the Cause of Much of the High Cost
of Living

Our fire waste is in a measure re-
sponsible for the high cost of living, for
1t merges with the cost of everything
we eat. drink and wear Year after
year $250000,000 worth of buildings
and merchandise are wasted by fire;
therefore it is easy to see that the very
foundation Of our commerce is being
consumed by the Fire god" Tomorrow
ycu may read of another San Francisco
or Baltimore confagration. Can we
stand such loss in the present condi
ton of our financial affairs? The fnan'
cial depression throughout this coun
try is put at the door of the war, but
can We not, to a large extent, trace
this back to 1906 and 1907 when be
tween two or three hundred millions
of securities were thrown on the mar
ket by insurance companies to meet
the pament Of losses? Another con.
fagration, such as at San Francisco, AT
this time would cause the worst panic
Of modern times, place a majority OF
manufactures and financial institu
tions in the hands of receivers, throw
thousands out of employment and
cause untold hardships and suffering.
In the past we have at least been
fortunate in having the big conflagra
tions occur in periods of mild weather
Picture if you can, the terrible suffer
ings and loss Of life at a cOn1lagra
tion in one of our large cities in the
dead of winter; of blind, sick and dy.
ing, the aged and the infants driven
from their homes, grand or humble as
they may be, TO face the wintery blasts
in one mass of fleeing humanity. Let
every man, woman and child become
a committee of one to fight against
such catastrophe. Start now to clean
up your home, the office, your place of
business; discuss the subject with
your family, employees and business
associates; give the fire prevention"
Just fraction of the time given to the
discussion of the war and watch the
results and effects.

TOWNS SHOULD TAKE NOTICE

Every fire insurance man knows that
a large number of disastrous fires in
towns and villages are caused by the
burning of trash, paper, and other com
bustibles on the street and in the al
leys. and that but limited number of
cities and towns have made any pro-
vision whatever for the safeguarding,
either by ordinance or otherwise, of
the property of the town from such
fires.
In some places merchants use wire
fencing, filling a container constructed
from such fencing with paper, etc, and
setting it afre. The charred paper
will blow around the street and into
areaways, possibly still burning. Any
way such makeshifts are viewed they
are dangerous.
In other places old discarded steam
boilers are set on end and the mer
chant fills the shells with paper and
rubbish, setting it afire at the top. The
heat causes a draft, and the wind
whisps around, scattering the burning
material and embers all over town.
But merchants and property owners
are realizing that the burning of paper
and rubbish is a danger that must be
safeguarded Some municipalities com
pei the burning of paper, etc. in brick
or concrete receptacles especially con
Btructed for the purpose, either by the
city or individuals, as the wisdom Of
the city council may decide.-Hartford
Agent.

Secret Of LAUGHTER.

THE secret of laughter is in the re-
turn to nature. Civ Nilization and cul-
ture are late additions and we are
living to a great extent in artificial
conditions. Psychology makes plain
the fact that our present mental equip
ment has been slowly and painfully
tanning that high altitude is inevitable.
This tension is relieved by nonsense
and by the portrayal in humorous
anecdotes and on the stage OF eva
sions of convention and infractions OF
the prevailing code Of morals and
manners.
