STRONGEST FACE IN
 WORLD OF THE FILM

The great Triangle star, the man S. Hart, in '"The Primal Lure," will be the star attraction for tomorrow and Saturday at Fox's. This is the story of a woman who is falsely ac- cused and publicly humiliated by the man she loves. This man goes on hating, the woman working out the proof of her innocence in her own way. When she does prove to him that she is innocent he, man-ike, refuses to admit his wrong. but when the woman gets into serious trouble, he lights with every drop of red blood in his veins for the woman whom he had falsely accused. There are some won derful snowstorm scenes, an attack by Indians on a border post and a fight under water, with knives, between an Indian and Hart. Hart is known throughout the screen world for his wonderful work as a man with a re- vengeful nature and has been seen at F'oXs m such film masterpieces as ''Hells Hinges,'I ''The Ayran,' etc.
 In addition to the above the Para mount Plays will offer the Broadway faVOr1te. Mae Murray, in Sweet Kitty Bellairs." This is taken from the play by David Belasco, the dramatic genius of the twentieth century. The play is the most popular historical TO- nance in theatrical history and is a story of lovely womanhood and chiv- alrous men.
 A two-reel Keystone comedy, en- titled "A Love Comet'' and the Bur ton Holmes Travelogue will fill out the bill.
 Iva capacity audiences enjoyed the William Fox Feature, Caprice of the Mountains,' "The Iron Claw" and the other equally meritorious film yester- day and the same program will be re- peated today.

 An Innocent Letter
 Then l remembered my household accounts and letters which I had not attended to for two weeks. For a long time after Dicky had put his financial affairs in my hands I had been at my wits end to know how to keep track of the things which he tought or of any bills which came into his hands. I had letter files, but IT Dlcky happened to be the one to go after the mail-for the village of Marvin has no delivery system-he stuck any bill belonging to him in his pocket and promptly forgot about 1t. Finally, in desperation, I had asked him if he minded my going through his pockets occasionally in order that l might be able to get the bills and letters together for filing.

 But as I turned to the signature. in 1 firm, beautiful chara acters, ''Herbert l Pettit," I knew what the letter was, and my anger against Dicky was l mixed with a curiosity as to why he 1 had kept the letter after reading it. It was most innocent little epistle. Weeks before, when looking over my accounts, I had discovered that I had received no bill from Dr. Petit for his call when I had my attack of ton- silitis. Fearing that he had sent the bill to the apartment, not knowing that we had moved, I wrote asking | him to send it to me at Marvin. With the remembrance of his tenderness of | voice and manner at the time of my illness, I made the note a model of 1 brevity, and couched it in the most l businesslike terms possible. This must be the answer to my request for 1 the bill.

they are married and it is, therefore, not their problem.
 An Exasperating Case.
 One of the most exasperating cases of unfairly divided responsibility that ever knew was that of a woman who had two daughters. One of them married. She had no children and comfortable income. The other was a stenographer. The mother in the last years of her life was an invalid and the unmarried daughter made a home for her, took care of her and did the housework on her return from her work. The other daughter may have contributed to her support. But I don't know about that; but of the service that means as much as money she gave nothing. T can't have my mother with me-" she explained blandly. T am living in a boarding house, and mother wouldn't like that" The idea that she might go to housekeeping and take her mother apparently never occurred to her.
 Not only the financial but also the personal responsibility for the older folks should be fairly and squareIy divided among all the children, mar ried and unmarried, according to their ability to help. Those who refuse to take their share, who need all their time and money for themselves, are guilty of one of the least pardonable meanneeses. The unmarried daugh- ter, who gives up the best of her life to her invalid mother or father, has lost much. But not so much as the child who deliberately shirks his share of this duty-and opportunity.

REVELATIONSOF WIFE

What Madge Found in Dicl&y's Pocket.

What Madge Found in Dicky's Pocket.
 I did not give Mrs. Hoch, my officious neighbor, chance to finish the niserabl gossip she was uttering about my husband and Grace Draper.
 With my eyes flashing, my cheeks blazing, I sprang to my feet when she told me that Dicky and his beautiful model and protege took the same train to work in the morning and the same train home at night, and that village gossip had said they were planning to elope.
 Mrs. Hoch,'' I snapped out, eff I had known what you were going to say I would not have allowed you to speak. Your words are an insult to my husband and to myself. You will please to remember never to say any thing like this to me again."
 Mrs Hoch rose to her feet, her face an unbecoming brick red. Her daughters black eyes snapped with anger.
 Come, Celie," the elder woman said. T don't stay nowhere to be in suited, when all I've tried to do is to give a little friendly warning to a neighbor."
 Mother and daughter hurried down the path, chattering to each other like two angry squirrels.
 "Horrid stuck up thing" I heard Celie say spitefully as they went through the fence "I hope Grace Draper does take him away from her. She's got a nerve, I must say, t2Ein' to us like that. I don't believe she cares anything about her husband anyway
 She might have changed her mind had she seen me fly to my room as soon as she was safely out of sight, lCcI1 the door, and bury my face in the pillows that neither my mother-in- law nor Katie should hear the sobs I could not repress.
 "Dicky, Dicky! Dicky!'' I moaned Have I really lost you?' Of course I knew better than to believe the statement of the elope- rnent. I had seen and heard enough Of village life to realize how the slightest circumstance was magnified by the community loafers.

The Last Child.

How can I marry?" woman said to me the other day. T couldn't leave father and mother to shift for themselves, could I?''
 She did not speak bitterly, just hopelessly. Not in resentment, but in a sort of apathy, sadder to me than any passion of rebellion.
 Because She Isn't Married Is She
 Responsible?
 She is the youngest of family of four. The other three, two brothers and a sister, are all married. When they married their father was making a living, and their mother was in req sonably good health. Since then, his salary has dwindled and the mother has become 8 semi-invalid The youngest daughter earns a good sal ary, which makes it financially possi- ble to keep the old home open, and in her spare time she gives her mother the attention which her semi-invalid state requires.

 think we all know cases like this, in which the youngest child or the child who for one reason or another has remained at home after the others have left, is thrust by circumstances into the position of being responsible for the old folks. Usually it is daughter, more rarely it is bachelor son. There was a pathetic letter in one of the magazines recently, telling of the case of a son so placed who wants to marry but does not feel like asking any woman to assume the care of his invalid mother. Has he brothers and sisters? Oh, yls, but

Thirty-six thousand pounds of cas-
cara bark were cut on the Siuslaw
national forest, in oregon. during the
latter half of last year, according to
the governments fOresters. A steady
demand for this bark for medicinal
purposes both in the United States and
in Europe is reported to exist. Before
the war most of the exported product
went to England and Germany. The
cascara bark industry began, it is as
serted, in California about 1865, and
for many years California led i'll the
production of bark, exporting as much
as $4,000 pounds in a single year.
Now western Oregon and, to a lesser
degree. western Washington are the
chief sources Of supply. The forest
experts say that the destructive meth
DDS usually practiced in obtaining the
bark have resulted in almost extermi-
mating the cascara tree on privately
owned land. leaving the national for
ests as the last source of supply.

ELECTRIC Furnace Best.

An electric furnace for the heat treat
ment of steel used in automobile con-
struction has been introduced. Its
method of producing uniform, depend
able heat that is so urgently sought by
automobile manufacturers is quite nov
ell in electric furnace practice, although
Its principle is comparable to that of
the well known Nernst lamp. Both the
floor and the domelike covers of this
furnace are of a refractory material
which is practically nonconducting at
ordinary temperatures. To start the
furnace a current is passed through q
bed Of coke laid ON its floor. On being
sufficiently heated the floor becomes
a conductor and in turn heats the
walls and top, rendering them con-
ductive, until finally the entire furnace
becomes incandescent. 1t is stated by
those who have tried the furnace that
its use in the heat treatment of auto
mobile parts promises to be extensive
in the future.

Lieutenant General Sir John G. Max
well who was sent to Ireland to quell
the revolt in that country, was until
recently commander of the British
forces in Egypt. Most of General Max
wells military experience was gained
In the land of the khedive, where he
was one Of the principal lieutenants in
the operations connected with the re-
conquest of the Sudan.
Although General Maxwell has done
his fair share of fighting in the Sudan
and South Africa, it is said of him
that he excels as a shrewd and strong
administrator rather than as a military
strategist. Probably it was because
of his ability as manager that he
was chosen to manage the affairs in
ireland. He is described as a man OF
frm will and indomitable enterprise,
one who is not to be trified with and
who endeavors to perform whatever
task is assigned to him.
General Maxwell's wife is an Ameri-
can, Miss Louise Selma Bonynge,
daughter of Charles w. Bonynge, one
of the California forty-niners. She is
a half sister of Lady Deerhurst. Since
her marriage Lady Maxwell has been
with her husband in all his campaigns,
not only in Egypt and South Africa,
but throughout his two years cam
paign in the Sudan during the out
break about nine years ago.

SCIENCE INDUSTRY.
Artaslan WeIIs Made to Pump.

The field men Of the United States
geological survey in their investiga-
lions of the ground water resources of
the Virginia coastal plain have observ-
ed that the flows from many artesian
wells in that region are utilized to
drive hydraulic rams for the purpose
Of lifting the water to higher levels.
Along the lower courses of the Poto-
mac and Rappahannock and along the
shores of the many inlets that run back
from Chesapeake bay above the James
there are hundreds of artesian wells
that supply perennial flow Of beau
tifully clear water, which is, as a rule,
exceIlently adapted to all domestic
uses and is largely utilized by the can
ming factories and other industrial es-
adjustments that abound in that part
of the country. Though the pressure
of the water from the wells is ample
he shore level. the head diminishes
so quickly with increase in elevation
that no flow can be obtained along the
higher banks above the shores where
the water is most needed. One method
of obtaining It at these higher levels is
to use the force developed by the ar
tesian flow to operate hydraulic rams,
which in turn raise the water to the
heights desired along the bluffs above
the river and inlets. Thus it may be
said that the artesian wells pump
themselves.

trict- In 1900 he was sent to the Phil
ippines. where he served until relieved
in September, 1913.
In 1901 Major Bandholtz was sent to
Tabayas provilce. which he pacified,
and the next year was elected by the
people governor of the province. He Is
the only regular army officer ever thus
elected. Tabayas is the largest Chris
tian province in the islands. In 1903
he was appointed colonel and assistant
chief Of the Philippine constabulary by
the then Governor Taft and was placed
I'm command Of the southern district of
Luzon. In three months he ended the
instruction under General Simeon Ola
that had been in progress over a year
and finished the campaign by going
with a single native guide into the
camp of Colonel Loamo and bringing
in the latter and his men.
In 1907 Major Bandholtz was APP
pointed brigadier general and chief of
the Philippine constabulary, which po.
sitiOn he held until ordered to the Unit
ed States. The Philippine commission
in 1910 by unanimous resolution re-
quested his promotion to the rank Of
brigadier general in the regular army.
Three years later he recaptured the
stolen plans of all the defenses Of Ma

again recommended the same promo
ton. Major Bandholtz is a native OF
