SATURDAY. HOLIDAY.

The beginnings of the Saturday half
holiday might be traced to an old-time
custom among southern planters. "On
Saturdays" says Professor Sanford In
The Story of Agriculture" for either
the whole or a part of the day, the
slaves were released from field work.
In many cases they used this
time and Sundays In which to earn
money for themselves by hiring out
and doing odd jobs. There were many
instances in which slaves purchased
their freedom and that Of their famil
les with money earned in this way"

1.-THE VICTORY OF CONSCIENCE"
At THE CRYSTAL THEATRE
Lou Tellegen, the distinguished rO-
mantle actor, has never had a more
thrilling role in his entire stage and
screen career than that of the young
count who passes from saint to sinner
in The Victory of Conscience" an un-
| usual Lasky phOtoplay written espe-
cially for Mr.. Tellegen by Margaret
Turnbull
Lou Tellegen has the distinction of
being one of the champion swOrdsmen
of Europe and Elliott Dexter, who ap-
pears with him in this production is
also well known for his prOwess with
the Tolls. Together they enact one OF
the most thrilling duel scenes ever
witnessed on the screen.
The story has to do with the splr>
, itual and mental re-awakening of
Louis, Count de Tavannes The count
and his handsome adventurous com
panion, Prince Dimitri, steal a little
dancer girl from French tavern. The
girl falls in love with Louis but he
casts her aside and is nearly killed
in a fight with a former sweetheart
of the girl. Upon recovering, the for
mer sinner enters the priesthood. He
again meets the dancer and through
his ennobling influence she is induced
to enter monastery. Cleo Rfdgely
appears in the role of the dancer and
renders a most appealing interpreta-
ton of the character.
1.-The Victory of Conscience" will be
shown at the Crystal theatre Satur-
day.

BEGIN HOT WAITER
DRINKING IF YOU
DON'T FEEL RIGHT
1 Says glass of hot water with
phosphate before breakfast
washes out poisons.

If you wake up with bad taste, bad
breath and tongue is coated; if your
head is dull or aching; if what you eat
sours and forms gas and acid in stom-
ach, or you are bilious, constipated,
nervous, sallow and can't get feeling
just right, begin inside bathing. Drink
before breakfast, a glass of real hot
water with teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it. This will flush the
poisons and toxins from stomach, liver.
kidneys and bowels and cleanse,
sweeten and purify the entire alimen-
tary tract. Do your inside bathing i'm
mediately upon arising in the morning
to wash out of the system all the pre-
vious days poisonous waste, gases and
sour bile before putting more food into
the stomach.
To feel like young folks feel; like
you felt before your blood, nerves and
muscles became loaded with body i'm
purities, get from your pharmacist a
quarter pound of limestone phosphate
which is inexpensive and almost taste
less, except for a sourish twinge which
is not unpleasant.
Just as soap and hot water act on
the skin, cleansing, sweetening and
freshening, so hot water and limestone
phosphate act on the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels. Men and women
who are usually constipated, bilious,
headachy or have any stomach dis
order should begin this inside bathing
before breakfast. They are assured
they will become real cranks on the
subject shortly. -

BRITISH GAIN IN new
OFFENSIVE IN FRANCE

London, Nov. 13-Again the German
line in France has been hard hit.
Starting an offensive from the south
ern bank Of the Ancre river north
ward over front of about five miles
from st. Pierre Divion to the north
of Serre-the British captured the
towns of Beaumont-Hamel and ST.
Pierre Divion and first and second
line trenches at various points.
Between 5000 and 1000 men were
made prisoner in the attacks. The
Germans apparently offered slight re-
sistance to their adversaries, although
their positions were extremely heav-
lily fortified.
A maximum gain to a depth of one
mile over the five mile front was made
by the British Hard fighting contin
ues north of Serre.
The new drive probably has as it's
objective the Strengthening out of the
British line northWard for the region
of Sars across the Ancre and the push
ing forward of the British left wing
toward Aichist-Le-Petit, the junction
point of the Arras-Bapaume and Ar.
ras- Miraumont railroads.
Except in the Roumanian and Mace
DOMAIN theaters there has been little
fighting of great Importance on any
of the fronts.

DEMOCRATS LACK
MAJORITY IN HOUSE

New York, Nov 13-The balance
of power in the next congress will
rest with five representatives with in
dependent affiliations.
The Republicans made such gains
in the election Tuesday that. the Dem
ocratic majority is cut to the point
where even the speakership might be
affected.
Returns indicate the Republicans
will have two more representatives
than the Democrats. The success or
failure of legislation that is proposed
will therefore rest with the votes of
Socialist, Prohibitionist with Dem
ocratic leanings, a Protection Demo
crat, a Progressive and an Independ.
ent
In addition a woman, Miss Jean
nette Rankin of Montana, will sit in
congress for the first time in history.
Following is the lineup as indicated
by latest returns:
Republicans PIG, Democrats 214, In
dependents 5.
The present house lineup is:
Democrats, 229; Republicans, 1877;
Progressives, 6; Independent, 1; So
cielist, /.
A majority in the house Is 21S. It
takes that many votes to elect a
speaker or to enact legislation.
The Democrats retain control of the
senate by majority of twelve.

ARDuous MOTOR TRIP

One of the most arduous motor
trips ever undertaken was success
fully accomplished recently in Nor
Deco.
The trip, from Tangier on the At
lantic coast to the inland city Of
Fee, was made by the Tangier Over
land distributor in an Overland tour
ing car. The distance covered total
led over 500 miles and the time spent
enroute occupied from July % until
August 2.
The trip is particularly interesting
in that it marks the first passage
Of any vehicle on wheels between
the two cities, and marks the first
entry of an automobile into the an
cient and sacred capital Of the
Moors.
The trip was made over sections
of camel and mule tracks. Only
twenty miles of the whole distance
could by courtesy be called road !"
The tracks were unconnected, and
in many instances We're entirely lost.
The road conditions may be imag-
ined when it is stated that the con-
tinuous joltimg of the car entirely
severed a stout leather strap that
was used to hold two spare wheels
on the rear.
The road conditions, in themselves,
would be sufficient to deter many
stout hearts from the trip, let alone
the ungoverned nature of the coun-
try through which the trip was made,
| for the oleanders Towering on the
river banks might we'll serve to con-
ceal a band of robbers. indeed, the
Red Mountain, ''Akba Ell Hanna"
which once sheltered the famous
bandit Raissouli was one of the
sights of interest encountered, and
the tourists passed through the old
! lair of the famous Sallee pirates.
/ Native guides had to be relied
on almost entirely, and in many
cases the guides themselves furnish
ed much of the uncertainty.
