This screen novel will set an absolutely new standard in literary merit of motion picture stories, for it is not to be bloOd-and thunder, slap-dash, knock -down-and- -drag-ou tale, but a logically developed, care fully plotted, interest compelling tale of the romance of a yO>Ng society woman, played by Bili< Burke.

On Backs.

NO, she isn't pretty; but did you ever notice that a lovely back she has?" said the Lady-who-alWays- knows somehow
 ''No," said the authorman's wife. 1T must say I take more interest in peoples faces than their backs"
 "So do l." said the lady; "but I've found that their backs are interesting, too"
 What do you mean by a lovely back?"
 Every straight and very graceful" said the lady.
 The authormans wife looked amused at the idea of a graceful back.
 Personally it doesn't strike me as a particularly amusing idea. Backs Can Have Individuality and
 Beauty
 Like the lady, I've found that backs can have both individuality and beauty.
 Many years ago a woman who thoroughly understood the art of dress gave my mind it's first impulse in this direction.
 She advised me to buy a certain suit because the back had such excel lent lines.
 "But what about the front?" said l. Isn't that more important?"
 T don't think so" said she. You are in front, yourself, and people will look at you, instead of your clothes;

REVELATIONSOF WIFE
By ADELE GARRNSON

How Madge Scored the Second Point.
 The trip by trolley with my hus- band and Grace Draper through the beautiful country lying between Jamaica and Hemp pstead will always remain in my memory as a turning point in my ideas of matrtmOny and it's problems.
 Lillian Underwood's talk with me in the dining room of the Tarleton, where she had invited me to lunch for the purpose of putting me on my guard against Miss Draper, had de- stroyed all my previous conceptions of dignified wifely behavior in the face of a problem like mine.
 All my life I had felt nothing but contempt for the woman who would try to hold her husbands love when she saw it slipping from her. When the suspicion that Dicky was beccr- ing unusually interested in his beau tiful model and protege became al- most a certainty in my mind, had resolved to hide my misery as best l could until I was absolutely sure that ny husbands love was mine no longer and then quietly to leave him, giving him every opportunity for legal freedom if it could be arranged.
 But Lillian had changed all that. She had pictured Dicky as being in f1uenced only by an evanescent fancy, and had given me courage to fight Grace Draper's nachinatiOns with all the feminine weapons which l possessed or she could furnish me.
 The success Of my first encounter, only an hour before, had thrilled me. My remark to Miss Draper that Dicly and I were staid. old married people w4fh all the romance tucked safely away had puzzled Miss Draper and disturbed Dicky. With leaping pulses, I saw that he did not like the idea of romance being over for us. I felt that I had discovered the keynote of my campaign.
 So all during the journey home through the fragrant September air, I paid as much attention to my role of calm friendliness as any actress would to a first night appearance. Remembering Lillian Underwood's s advice to make the transition gradual from the frigid courtesy of my former meetings with Grace Draper to the friendly warmth we had planned for our campaign, I adopted the manner one would use to a casutl but inter- esting acquaintance.
 Grace Draper's Attitude.
 kept the conversational ball rol- ling on almost every topic under the sun. But I found that the burden of the talk fell on my shoulders The girl was plainly uneasy and puzzled at my manner. Dicky's thoughts I could not fathom. I caught his eyes fixed on me once or twice with admira on and a touch of bewilderment in them, but he said very little.
 Aren't you girls getting hungry?" Dicky demanded at last as we got off one trolley and changed to another. 'There's a bully old place to eat

CHIROPRACTIC HINTS.

Chirapractic in Accord With Nature.
 Chiropractors do not prescribe medi- cine, make use of surgery nor prac- tice osteopathy; nor do they treat, heal or cure disease. They locate and adjust the cause of disease. Ma ture will do the healing, curing and repairing after such adjustment has been made.
 The cause of disease is vertebral subluxations, which produce pressure on spinal nerves, thereby shutting off life currents, passing through nerves from brain cell to the parts of the body affected or diseased.
 Chiropractors adjust subluxated yer tebrae relieving pressure on nerves thereby enabling innate intelligence to restore normal function. The result is edith.
 Innate intelligence will afford health if allowed uninterrupted trans mission; uninterrupted transmission insures perfect expression of function.
 Fifty years ago medicine was an un- certain science. Today it is as cer- tainly uncertain.
 Chiropractic ministers to the neces- sity of afflicted humanity, and is public need.
 Our work tells it's own story; give chiropractic a trial and know for yourself.
 We deal with conditions not theor- ies, that is why we correct causes with adjustments instead of experi- menting With effects by the use Of remedies.

MORAL BE SURE | ID TIP THE WAITER
This Woman Did and It Was a Good Investment

New York, July 26.-Her Hberality S tipping enabled Mrs. Dorothy Spencer, a wealthy American, living N 49 West Fifty-seventh street, to sPturn home yesterday aboard the eandinavian-Ameri liner United hates.
 Otto Schultz, once a waiter at the #itz Carlton, now a petty officer on German destroyer, recognized Mrs. $pencer, and, by his identification, Dared her the indignity of being &ken a prisoner when the liner was 8parded by the destroyer's officers in zpe Cattegat.
 Mrs. Spencer's husband, an Eng < Sst May, without waiting to take 8eps to re-assume her American cit &enship, she sailed for England, us- &g a British passport. Planning to return via Copenha zen, she left England without a pass 8brt, declaring herself an American @tizen. The steamer was stopped by Ne destroyer in the Cattegat and the
 
 #on of their credentials. All passed @thout trouble except Mrs. Spencer, %hose declarations that she was an &nerican were of no avail. Preparations were made for her Mansfer to the destroyer, when g. @tty officer happened to pass. Haven't I had the honor of wait #g on madam in New York?'' he Aquired. Mrs. Spencer scrutinized { &m keenly, and at first failed to ' &cognize him in his uniform. Then Ne realized that he was the waiter #ho had served her many times at Ne Ritz.
 He departed at once in search of #s commander to confirm Mrs. &encer's story. After a brief col #quy Mrs. Spencer recovered her #eedon, with the customary apolo- &es.
 # As the petty officer turned to fol- Nv his commander down the gang &hy, he momentarily became the &Emble servitor of old, and, making a
 w bow in true dining room style &claimed:

 saw a faint glimmer of resent 1nent come into Grace Draper's won1- er1ul brown eyes. I knew that Sha was p1qued because Dicky had turned
 to me with his question instead of to
 her. Nothing could have so revea1e1 to me her attitude toward nv hus- band to me. She evidently considered herself my rival. The knowledge roth humiliated and infuriated me-
 With feminine intuition I know that che meant to take some catfish re- Venge. I resolved to be on my guard that I might parry easily any thrust she might give me-
 But it was with real satisfactio in the progress of my little campaign that I turned to answer Dicky's oues- ton.
 II say yes, thank you very kindly" I said gayly. "I have been waiting to
 hear you say that for at least five
 miles. But I didn't want you to con- sider me the only material member of
 the party, if you two were willing to
 let golden-rod and autumn breezes
 take the place of food. I hope you
 are ready for some real food, too,
 Miss Draper''
 Three At Dinner "Oh, yes, indeed' she returned me- chanically. Dickv glanced at her quickly, a puzzled glance. I knew that he had expected gayety from her,
 cc urtesy well Trapped from me. The l reverse situation bewildered him.
 At the next trolley stop we alighted ] Dicky helped me down first then l turned to assist her. My back was i turned toward them, but I heard a 1 quick murmured question from her, l an answering murmur from Dcky i knew without hearing the words that i she had asked him what my attitude
 meant and that he had made some
 non-committal answer. I felt all the 1 excitement of a player whose game l is going his way.
 1 We walked a little way down a 1 country road, and came to a wide 1 porched old inn bordering a little lake i The porch was screened, and a few ] tables overlooked the lake. Fortunate- | ly we were able to secure one, and 1 DiclIy ordered a generous meal. ] I really enjoyed the little dinner 1 something farthest from my thoughts 1 when we started on the trip. But the knowledge that the woman who pre- sllmptuously considered herself my ] rival was uncomfortable gave my ap-
 petite fllip.
 It was when the waiter brought the salad that Grace Draper's oppor-
 tunity came The man bent deferent- 1 ally to Dicky.
 l Twill you dress it, sir, or shall ?' ] With a cooing note in her voice. the i girl spoke quickly.
 1 "Oh, MT. Graham, won't you make l one of those wonderful anchOvy dres- l sings of yours, with the sherry? You 1 have anchovies and sherry here 9" | She turned to the waiter , think Dicky was even moro | startled that I at the girls assurance l in my presence. I realized that she 1 meant to rouse me to an undignfied l exhibition of jealousy by Haunting in | my face the fact that she had dined with Dicky frequently, and was

 tiOn away from the back" Consider the Back View in Arranging
 The Hair.
 Likewise, in trying on a hat or ar ranging ones hair, the back should be considered, as carefully as the front and sides. Many people fail to do this, because they see their faces in the mirror so much more often than they see their backs.
 One of the stories of my childhood that I have never forgotten is that of little boy and his first visit to the photographers. When he was told that he could have his picture taken in any pose he selected, he chose to have it taken back view, "because I've seen my face lots of times but I nev- CT got a good look at my back"
 He Was Wiser Than His Elders. His elders were greatly amused, but I thought-and still think-that he had more sense than they. I wonder if he grew up to be as thoughtful a man as he was a boy, or if in due time he became convention bound grown-up himself.
 It is a wise person who knows his own back.
 What does your back look like? Is it the kind that makes people be- hind you on the street quicken their pace because they want to see the face that goes with it? Or is it the other kind?
