In the primrose Path" lovers of
the screen drama will find an extraor-

most unusual situations, and cab

these days Of lavish productions. The
story is one of woman's supreme

discovery of the awful price she paid,
there develops one of the strongest
and most daring stories ever filmed.
The superb production will delight all

That Hell has no furies like q wo-

words Of this famous song. Follow
ing the gay festivities Of the Gypsies'
dance and celebration of the marriage
Of Airline and Thaddeus, it is doubly
impressive.
To Elaine De Sellem falls the lot Of
singing this delightful number, and
it would be hard to imagine anyone
better fitted for It either vocally or
dramatically.
Miss De Sellem gives an interpre-
tation of the entire role of the Queen
which amply proves her right to a
place in this famous all-star revival,
and it is not stretching the truth to
say that Miss De Sellem leads the
list of American Mezzo Sopranos,
and to say that she is likewise a gift
ed actress is only to repeat what the
foremost critics in this country have
agreed upon for the past five years.

That Accrue From the Sense
Of BARGAINING.

side in Tibet cheerfully as he sees
you returning from a glimpse of the

to you and from one of the innumer-
able pockets concealed in his vOlu-
minous robe he will produce perfect
little jade cup, or Tibetan coffee
pot or gold. copper and precious
stones. or perhaps a huge lump of
rough turquoise hewn to look like a
couch with a tiny gold Buddha reclin-
ing on it.
Then comes the bargaining. in which
he and all his friends take part against
your single self
1t can all be done by signs and
smiles and patience and in the long
run you will get some things well
worth having at very reasonable
price
But you must have no false pride
about bargaining. 1t is an elementary
part of these peoples nature, and the
joy of selling will leave them forever
when the day of haggling is done.

PEACE PROSPECTS
. GROWING BRIGHTER
MEXICAN CHIEFS MAY GET
TOGETHER AND AGREE ON

Indications Are That Another Effort
by the United States to Institute
Peace Conference Would
Not be Fruitless.

Washington.-Enc reports
have reached officials of tthe Wash
ington administration recently, it was
learned Wednesday, as to peace pros
poets in Mexico although no indica- j
tion has come that General Carranza
would yield to another request from
the United States to join in peace ne
gotiations with General Villa and
other Mexican leaders. limitations
have been conveyed to administration
officials, however, that there are con-
ditions acceptable TO Carranza under
which joint peace deliberations of all
factions could be arranged.
From other military leaders, among
them Villa, Zapata, Maytorena and
many more, including men who have
been prominent in Mexican civil and
military affairs. ii was made known
from an authoritative source, there
nave come indications that another
effort by the United States TO instl
tute a peace conference viii not be
fruitless. Reports, it is said, have
resulted from an informal canvass OF
the situation that has been quietly in
progress for several weeks.
Emissaries of General CarranZa are
expected to reach Washington within
a few days. 1t is expected they may
have some plan to suggest TO the ad
ministration. The Washington gov
eminent also expects valuable infor-
nation regarding actual conditions in
Mexico from Consul General Arnold
Shanklin, who will arrive from Mex
leo City and Vera Cruz within few
days.
The next step to be taken by the
United States, it is believed, will be
announced soon after President Will
sons return from Cornish. The pres
ident informed newspaper men at the
summer capital that the Mexican
problem was receiving his earnest
consideration.

The French minister had expressed
an urgent desire that his legation b.

that the French guard would be able
to tighten the burden on Admiral Ca

cablegram. Secretary Daniels con
