No Arrests Made.

I'm the first place" says Common
wealth's Attorney Ball. "the reports
that arrests have been made and COL
lateral taken by officers from parties
operating machines without a Virginia
license is erroneous. A great many
persons have been stopped and told to
get licenses and some have come to the
courthouse with the officers and made
application for the same. No charge
has been put against any one. No one
has been fined. Not cent OF collateral
has been taken by any officer with the
knowledge and consent of the sheriff or
myself. Where parties have been op-
Grating in this state without license
they have been compelled to get one
and to pay the officer stopping them
the sum of so cents.
THE law gives to any one the right
to make two trips in the state of Vir-
ginia within one year. each trip to ex-
tend for a period of seven days IL de-
sired without a license. This law has
been adhered TO and no one will be mo-
Tested on his first or second trip. There
is no intention on the part OF the Off
cials to disturb any one who comes
over here occasionally on pleasure
trip. We only expect those who make
regular use of our roads to stand the
same license fee for road maintenance
as our own citizens have to pay.
"All trucks operating out of Wash
ington and using our roads will, OF
course. have to pay the proper license
and the law in this regard will be
strictly enforced, as these machines
come into our county by the hundred
daily and wear and tear on the roads
from their operation is enormous.
THE law of Virginia does not permit
any officer to accept collateral and 1t
would be a favor to the sheriff and me
for any person who has been requested
to leave collateral with any one repre-
senting himself to be an officer to
promptly notify us. II an officer de-
mands collateral and it comes to our
notice his badge will be taken from
him at once. II any one not an officer
demands collateral and represents HIM
self as an officer he will be promptly
and vigorously prosecuted.

Complimented on Courtesy.

AL persons" says Attorney Ball.
who have been stopped by officers and
have come to the courthouse to apply
for licenses have complimented the
officers upon their courtesy. Deputy

and I am sure every one has been
treated courteously and justly by
them.

HernIt,s Advice.

Are you baldheaded, why so? There's
no reason for 1t. Fasting will make
your hair grow. This is according to
a hermit who was found living in Van
Cortlandt park, New York. He told
the court that he had been fasting for
scientific purposes. Before his fast,
which had lasted SO days, he said his
belfry was as bald as a billiard ball.

the top of his head, which was Gov

would have made him eligible to any
all-American football team. According
to the hermit, if the baldheaded man
follows his instructions the famous
first row at n1asical comedy will no
more consist Of nothing but nude
domes. These are the objections: Live
in the open air; drink about two
quarts of water day; do not eat any

REALTY MEN AIDED BY WAR
Millions Are Being Spent for New
York Rentals In Place OF Going
to Europe.

After balancing fall rental accounts
recently brokers throughout the ultra
fashionable district estimated that
more than $4,000. 900 will be paid for
Manhattan homes during the coming
season by families that usually make
their abodes in Europe, the New York
World states. Their aggregate hy'
ing expenses for the year are placed
near $4,000, 900. most of which win
be spent in New York
More than $500 such families have
rented apartments or private dwell
ings during the past few months.
The have paid an average of $4,000
yearly rental. some paying as high as
$4,000. Their competition for lux
urious living quarters has forced nor
NAL prices to the highest levels on rec
ord and old families that have been
in the habit of renting costly homes
by the year, or for the social season,
have had to pay fancy figures.
This was illustrated recently when
Mrs. Nelson w. Aldrich. wife of the
late senator from Rhode Island and
closely related by marriage to the
Rockefellers, paid at the rate Of 500
day, more than $4,000 year. for
Mrs. Kingsland's furnished home on
the northeast corner Of Fifth avenue
and Forty-sixth street, for the winter
season Mrs. Kingsland herself leases
it under longterm contract from VIII
liam Waldorf Aston. A similar rental
is being paid for the Judson Todd
home.

1t is well known that the disease Of
the gums called pyorrhea is respon
sible for certain diseased conditions OF
the body, aside from the diseases OF
the gums themselves. When pyorrhea
is well established it is a difficult con
dttion to cure; but Professor Fischer
has recently pointed out that solu
ton of ipecac used as a mouth wash
is an effective preventive. A few drops
Of the tincture of ipecac, or two drops

should be dissolved in a hale glassfu

heightened and his market strength
ened, but for weary months he was
his own camera-man, shipping clerk.
manufacturer, demonstrator and sales
man. Man of many activities as he
was, his brain could not be idle. The
idea came to him that story could
be worked out upon the screen-and
that that story would possess a far
wider appeal than the simple little
facts Of everyday life which he had
been filming. To think, with him, was
to act. He employed Max Under, a
threadbare young actor, for 81 day
to act out crude scenario, and Louis
]. Cashier, stage manager and play
producer of Paris, to direct the taking
of the picture That short picture
was the first acted story ever to be
put upon the screen, and from it the
modern photoplay has developed.
Max Linder jumped to fame and for
tune and is still considered the best
pantomime comedian in the world At
the outbreak of war his 81 per day
had grown to $4,000 per year. L..
J. Cashier, the first director, is today
one of Americas prominent film men
and still identified with the Pathe
organization.
Still another great idea came to Mr..
Pathe when he considered the posi-
bility Of putting news into motion
pictures. The idea, like all Of his
ideas, proved practicable and success
full, and the News Weekly came into
being. Most persons, in spite of the
competition which sprang up, still as
sociate the news film in their minds
with the old Pathe Weekly, the father
of them all. Today there is the Pathe
News in the United States, the Pathe
Gazette in Great Britain, the Pathe
journal in France, the Pathe Giornale
in Italy, and still another with jaw
breaking name in Russia.
Thus are great businesses born;
beginning with an Idea some strong
man like Charles Pathe takes 1t, molds
1t, changes 1t, improves IT, and makes
it his own. Behind 1t he puts his
own strong will and dynamic per-
sonality. He breathes upon 1t the
breath of his genius and like Galatea
1t becomes alive. throbbing with beau
ty and energy, an entity and no longer
an Idea!
