CURED Or BORROWING.

well. I've found a way to stop nv
neighbors from borrowing" said a
young suburban matron gleefully.
You see.' she explained, I'VE are not
near any store, and, of course. some-
times one has to depend on a neighbor
in an emergency. But my particular
neighbor seemed to have such emer
gencies nearly every day And it was
usually vinegar she wanted. Now we
are particular about our vinegar and
get the best variety. and, of course.
when Mrs. Neighbor asked for vinegar
we gave her of our best. But when she
returned 1t she sent very cheap
grade, which we were unwilling to
use and were obliged to throw out.
This was repeated so often that we
begun to weary of II, and suddenly a
bright idea struck me. I carefully
poured her cheap vinegar into a bottle
and saved 1T. Next time she asked
me to lend her vinegar l sent her own
to her. The cure worked. She has
never asked for another drop. and 7
suppose she thinks I am a mean sort
or neighbor. But I don't care."-

is not colored giant from Africa-he
is a white gentleman. "Maciste" was
his name in "Cabiria,' and now and
forevermore he will probably be

film in which this "super-man" has
been starred was written especially
for him and it is a wonder work of
amazing acts, tantalizing thrills and
stirring struggles. Maciste fights
with scores of men and seems to en-
joy the battles. The most remarkable
thing about this very unusual film is
the fact that it is both comedy and
tense, exciting drama. There is an
element of mystery which holds and
the action moves with a speed that
will bring you to the edge of your seat.

AT THE MAJESTIC.

II. B. Warner, who already has been

gar of Cawnpore," is being offered for
the third time on the Triangle pro-
gram as the star of a wildly dra-
matte narrative from the pen of c.
Gardner Sullivan, entitled The Mar
ket of Vain Desire" which is to be seen
at the Majestic today and tomorrow.
The production is totally different
from either Of the young actors pre-
vious vehicles, being a forceful socio-
logical play, with dominant love in
terest. Warner appears as young
minister, who, called to the pastorate
of d fashionable city edifice. finds the
congregation composed of socity lead
ers whose views of LIES problems are
far from being in accord with his own.
The story concerns his efforts to show
his congregation the iniquity of mar
riage without love. What is the differ
ence," he asks, between the girl who
peddles her pitiful body ON the streets
and the girl who barters her beauty
for gain in the market Of vain desireT
The realization of the truth breaks
with force upon the girl who is the
subject Of the minister's attack and
an unworthy marriage is prevented.
