Under normal conditions, not
only does Italy buy more from
Germany than any other country,
but 1t buys twice as much from
Germany az it sells TO that EN-
pire The United Kingdom is
the second favOrite market, where
Italy also buys twice az much az
It sells. The United States ranks
third, with trade balances almost
even.
Americas opportunity to sup
ply Italy with goods formerly sold
by the belligerent powers and
other countries in the war zone is
evident from recapitulation of
the export prohibitions of the sew
eral nations.
By imperial decree of July 81,
1914, the expectation of SMOKED
aud sailed meats f,om Germany
was forbidden; on August | the
expectation and transit of coffee,
cocoa, chocolate, tea, salt, pepper,
sugar, starch, yeaet, raw and pre-
pared tobacco, brandy, wine, beer,
and vinegar were prohibited.

William Farnum, who appears in a | dual role in ''The Wonderful Adven- ture," which opens a two-day en- gagement at the local Fox theater this afternoon is Americas favorite screen artist and matinee idol of the day. MT. Farnum is the highest salaried actor of the screen today, drawing $100,000 year for his work. MT. Farnum was first of the great legitimate actors to forsake the stage, hut he says today that he never was more contented nor happier in his work.
 MT. Farnum is a man of unusual personality. He is tractible and mod est and has none of that selfish con- ceit which is found all too often with persons in all walks of life who have attained success.
 In connection with ''The Wonderful Adventure" too much credit cannot be given to Frederic Thompson, the producer, for the unique photo graphic effects he has introduced and the general power of the production. For instance, MT. Farnum Is seen shaking hands with himself, viewing his own dead body and opening a door for himself. This latest Will liam Fox production develops all the resources of. the camera under the able direction of MT. Thompson who is now hard at work on another big picture. How a vexed problem is finally solved, makes "The Wonderful Adventure" photo-play romance of entrancing power and thrilling inter- est. There will be several single reel comedies to augment the big feature and Miss Emma Stevens, the popular primadonna comedienne will render a completely now repertoire of popular song hits in her own artistic fashion

and big white apron tied around his waist, he stood at attention like a trained nurse.
 "Would you like your temperature taken or your pulse counted? 9" he in auired solicitiously r "No thank you, nurse." I returned gravely, settling myself luxuriously against my pillows. T will eat my breakfast now if you please"
 Dicky took off the covers with a great flourish.
 'Dicky!" I gasped. You extrava- gant boy!"
 For the daintiest imaginable repast lay before me. Broiled squab, baked potatoes, salad of asparagus tips. 1othouse strawberries and French rolls, all served on silver and china with the hall mark of a fashionable hotel near Dicky's studio.
 ''We aim to please. It is our motto," said Dicky meekly, as he poured me cup of coffee.
 I grasped the cup eagerly and drained it.
 "Oh Dicky. this is delicious-' exclaimed. And you made it your self? I didn't know you could make coffee"
 "Dicky bowed extravagantly.
 You do not know what culinary genius you have married. Wait till you taste some of my chafing dish stunts! But I ought to know how to make coffee I've watched Nellie often enough and she is the best coffee maker in all the studios!"
 My apetite suddenly fled. The tempting dishes no longer appealed to me. I was discovering things about myself which were not palatable I always have been most critical of petty jealousy in others, and here just the casual mention of woman's name was spelling the dainty meal Dicky's loving care had provided for me.

THE SHEPHERD KING"
 AT POLPS NETT WEEK

Polls theater will set a new rec ord in stock next week by presenting the biggest and most costly produc- ton that the American stage has known, ''The Shepherd King" a play that takes it's place with Ben Hur" and such other notable dramatic &C., movements. The play is Wright Lorimer's great Biblical drama and is absolutely superb. The play opens on sunny fields and hillsides, the home of Jesse, the father of David. The boy is in the fields, the sheep are led to the fold, the women ser wants weave cloth and the brothers go and come about their rustic la bors Suddently down night of rocky steps descends a group of royal personages. Prince Jonathan, Princess Michael and Phalti, prince among them. There is an immediate uuickening of the pulse when the royal world of Saurs court touches ] the simple pastural life of David s ] home. Finally, in the ripeness of manhood, David stands king, the
 master of his own, the ruler of a
 willing people. "The Shepherd King"
 presents a high achievement in play
 writing and stagecraft. In it delin-
 cation of character; in its exposition of the life of the Israelities in the
 days when they were a great nation;
 as lesson to the young and an intell-
 actual treat to the old. ''The Shep-
 herd King" knows no rival on the modern stage. It is indeed a re-
 markable play. Through the pomp
 and circumstances of Davids pro-
 gression to a new estate; through the
 brazen flash of war, it is not David,
 the slayer of Goliath, who stands out
 most clearly against the richly col
 ored background of this wonderful
 play. It is David the poet, the lover.
 who goes directly into the hearts and ! rsympathies of the audience. The presentation of "The Shepherd King" is one of the most ambitious stock
 undertakings in local history but the original scenery-fve carloads of it will be used at Polls and the man. agement is sparing no expense to make it a notable achievement. Seats go on sale tomorrow morning.

Two Hundred Questions

Every man hath two birthdays; two days at least, in every year which set him upon revolving the lapse of time as it affects his mortal duration. The one is that which in an especial manner he termeth his. In the grad ual desuetude of old observance, this custom of solemnizing our proper birthday hath merely passed away or is left to children, who reflect notn- ing at all about the matter, nor un- derstand anything in 1t beyond cake and ange."-Charles Lamb.
 "On the day before my birthday" I heard a New Thought speaker say recently, 'I spend the whole even ing answering a set of about two hundred questions. l sit down and make a business of it. l write the answers down and compare them with the answers of previous years"
 Why Didn't Someone Interrupt
 Him?
 It is hard to conceive of anyone with the leisure and the fxity of pur- pose to spend a whole evening in that admirable way. How was it that no one insisted on his making a fourth at bridge or taking a spin in the machine? How came it that he was not beguiled from his resolution by the lure of a fresh uncut magazine upon his library table?
 Surely he cannot be married, elsa his wife would have reminded him that he had promised to go to the moving pictures with her
 Knowing that the difficulty of liv- ing on twenty-four hours a day is almost as great problem as the high cost of living, I wouldn't dare ask my readers to devote a whole evening to such a task, or to answer two hundred questions.
 A Little Stock-taling, Now

Did you know that Lucille was thrown, yesterday, while riding in the park? ...... The poor dear hurt her knee quite badly ..... No, just a sprain ..... An awfu1y nice chap almost made thrilling rescue and Is coming to call, which was rather consoling ...... I gasped when I saw her ... ..She was on a chaise tongue with the most expensive look ing cover thrown over her .-... Imag- inc my astonishment when she said she had made it =. 7. It really is very simple to make, not at all expensive, and would be a wonderful trousseau

'' and Then.
 But if, instead of making our birth days merely a matter of cake and orange" Cor their modern equive- lent. birthday gifts,) we did manage to find an hour sometime during the day in which to do a little stock-tak- -- ing. would it do us any harm?
 When We go to town with a ten- dollar bill and come back with ten cents we usually sit down and reck- on what has become of the money. Shall we do less when we have spent a year?
 Some of the Questions We
 Might Ask. ~
 Have grown mentally in the past year?
 Have I made any new friends
 Have I kept all my old friends7
 Have l strengthened my character in any way?
 Have l learned any lessons from my failures and mistakes?
 Have l gained any on my besets- ting fault?
 How have I treated, my body7 Have I made it a more or a less ef- flcient tool by my treatment of 1t in the past year7
 , How do I stand financially7
 Have l gone a little further to- ward shaping a worthy creed of ac- tion and belief for myself?
 These are some of the questions that my own life suggests to me- Yours will suggest others to you.
 Today must be the birthday of some of my reader friends and | know they will give these sugges- tions some consideration because of the coincidence. But let them not be the only ones. The business that went on indefinitely without a stock taking would soon be in a muddlA Is the business of your life less important?

present ....... It was made from satin quilting, yards of it with top covering of the palest shade of blue satin sewed on ....... Around the edge was a deep frill of soft lace.
 ..... Os each corner there was a cluster of chiffon roses and on one side a wreath of roses tied with French bow of pale lavender ribbon tackled on in graceful lines ....... All you do is to sew the satin on the quilting and decorate it any way you wish. I'm going to make one for Roberta ..... See you later ...... Goodbye.

 The milk bill should be the last

 there are children in the family. The second and third cuts from
 the top of the round of beef are not,

 this helps to preserve their flavor Meat should be taken from the paper as soon as it arrives and never put it in direct contact with the ice. Sugar is present largely in bananas, grapes, etc., and their foodvalue is derived almost entirely from that. ] The juice of a lemon added to a
 pan of water will freshen wilted vege- i tables. Let them stand in it for one

 : Pocket handkerchiefs and faces ! can be whitened by soaking them 1 overnight in a bath of toilet carboltc soap.
 When you have salad, trp serving , it in separate portions, on small plates ! or individual salad dishes. See that the lettuce is crisp and fresh, and l that tomato, beet root, and cucum- l Der are cut in thin slices l Carrots should be lifted very care fully with fork, the leaves cut off an 1 inch from the top, the roots cleaned,
 dried in the sun for two days, and l then stored in a dry, cool cellar in l sand or very dry soil They keep | through the winter. If you have fried ham or bacon left over, grind it fine and mix with
 mashed potatoes, or rice that has l been put through the grinder, a raw
 egg and a little parsley. Roll into
 balls, dip in egg and cracker crumbs and fry as croquettes. To prevent curtains from blowing
 out the window when it is raised, sew snaps on each lower corner, on the
 inside of the curtain and do the same thing three-fourths of the way up
 and snap it fast.
 When boiling bones for soup or
 stock, remember that you haven't ex-
 tracted all the goodness from them ] until they are full of little holes. You can boil them again and again. Fish bones and trimmings make nourishing stock, and should never be wasted.
 Instead of melting butter when you want to mix it with sugar, place the butter in a double boiler and allow it to get warm. It will then beat up very easily with thesu gar and will not cause the cake to be heavy If towels have become gray and dingy looking, cover with cold water in which are dissolved shavings of pure white soap and the juice of a lemon, Place the kettle on the back of the stove and allow to come slowly to a boil. Rinse in tepid water then in blue water, then dry in the open air.
