uniaus Heating system.

Whether it is practical or not, the
new system of heating for homes de-
vised by Swedish inventor certainly
has the distinction of being unique.
1t is designed for houses of from four
to ten rooms and is especially in
tended for localities where electrical
current is inexpensive. The system
consists of two tanks, a motor-driven
rotary pump and the necessary radi-
ators and piping. One of the tanks is
placed in the attic of the house and is
thermally insulated. In 1t are placed
the heating units, which, normally, are
only operated at night, when the rates
for electric current are low. In the
morning the units are disconnected
from the supply circuit and the motor
driven pump started. The water flows
down the piping and through the radi-
ators by the force of gravity and is
collected in a receiving tank in the
basement, from where it is pumped
out and returned to the tank in the
attic.

FORESIGHT MADE HIM RICH
Missouri Druggists Investment In
Quinine Before the War Proved
Good Speculation.

One does not have to live in large
town to find an opportunity to make
fortune. The opportunities are every
where. 1t is only the man with his
eyes open who sees them. Druggist
Dimmitt of Rochester, Mo-, who re
membered the demand for quinine dur
ing the Civil war. had his eyes open,
for he bought 10000 ounces of quinine
a little more than a year ago at IA
cents an ounce. His judgment proved
correct, for the quinine that cost him
s1,4O0 is now worth SIS, 900, and it may
go higher.
He has had nothing to do with in
creasing the price. 1t is the demand
that is putting it up. A philanthropist
might argue that it Is a crime to make
money out Of the necessities of the
sick; but philanthropists who refuse
TO turn an honest penny when the op-
portunity offers are few and far be.
tween. Some of them do not indulge
in philanthropy as a recreation until
they have accumulated large surplus
by squeezing the last cent of profit
from every transaction. In the mean
time the Dimmitts of big towns and
little ones are doing their best to quail
ify themselves for benevolence by
making hay while death wields the
scythe.

"a CURE FOR THE BLUES"

DO you enjoy the blues? No. Well
II case should come on next week,
make your way to the CASINO THE
AFTER THEATER at once.
Most people regard the blues as
something like cold in the head
or evil that must attack once in 50
often, and then, when it occurs.
must be patiently endured rather
than sensible cured. Surely that is
absurd.
Unless you really like to be in
that state of mind in which you are
sure everything is wrong again, that
nobody loves you and that life is not
worth while living. | think there are
plenty of things you can do to help
yourself when you feel the spasm
coming on.
So if they start to hit you. come
at once to THE CASINO THEATER
and see a wonderful program of per-
feet photoplays, and you will soon
lose the blues.

With the Movies
The Cost OF Reels To
The Moving Picture House

Some information for the theater.
going public:
At the time when three reels OF
pictures shown by persons unknown
constituted the program of a MOVING
picture theater, 1T was common
knowledge that all the picture show
man had to take in at the door was
from three to five dollars to pay for
his picture, and that often the
nights receipts paid his bill for pic
lures for the entire week.
At that time every five-reel picture
was feature, and was only shown
at an increased price of admission.
Since then the movie program has
been increased from three to five and
six reels, showing the highest priced
players of the legitimate stage.
Fabulous sums are reported to
have been paid to Mary Pickford,
Charlie Chaplain and other popular
artists, and to person who knows
what these pictures cost the exhibit
or, there is not question where the
money comes from. For each nights
use of one of the new Mary Pick
ford pictures, produced by her own
company, the exhibitor is required to
pay fifty dollars The sum of thirty
five dollars is asked for one nights
use of Clara Kimbell Young, in "The
Common Law" The new mutual
Chaplain pictures of two reels can
not be secured for less than fifteen
dollars per night.

| costs double what an entire show

The new series of two reel pictures
known as "The Scarlet Runners, :
now being produced by the Vita
graph Company, will cost the exhib-
itor twelve dollars and fifty cents for
one days use of each two reels.
And new series of comedies to be
known as the "Tweedledum Come
dies, to be released Nov. / will cost
Mr.. Theater Owner five dollars for
each reel.
Instead of the theater owner be-
coming rich on showing feature pic
lures, such as 1.-THE Fall of the Ma
ton, Civilization" and THE Battle
Cry of Peace at a price of fifty
cents and one dollar, he has to CON
tent himself with a percentage Of
about twenty or thirty per cent of
the receipts
The usual run of five reel pictures,
as being produced by Paramount,
Triangle, Metro and other companies,
cost the exhibitor per picture about
two dollars per reel In addition to
this must be added the costs of pos
ters and expressage, which brings
'he average of the shows being
shown in the Casino at this time to
fifteen dollars per night for the pic
lures alone.
There is little wonder, therefore,
that the theater man is required to
increase his prices when showing
extra, or else sustain
loss, where the movie fan thinks the
theater man is yetting rich.

The Smiths are tired OF seeing them
at the head of the procession, SO
they've decided to sell their old 1912
model Cord and get new and bet
ter car. But nobody wants the old
one-the tires are worn almost to
shreds, the top is torn, one of the
headlights is all bunged up, the
gears are stripped very nearly tooth
less, and what is worst Of all. it has
an old type of engine-one of those
pioneers that run on three cylinders
tOur-hfths OF the time. You can't
blame anybody for not wanting that
old 'ice-wa gon."
The same way with pictures No
body wants to buy 'ice-wagon" en-
tertainment, because, besides being a
poor investment, it puts them "be-
hind the procession" True enough,
old pictures have no shredded tires,
but rain scratches are just as bed !;
their lamps are not bunged up, but
the film is dingy with age; their
gears are not toothless, but wear and
tear have worn out many scene
that is essential; they have not a
"three-cylinder" engine, but what is
Woefully worse, they have an old
1917 model story that is nothing
more than a succession of scenes
without artistry, and without any en-
gaging sequence. You cant blame
any one for not wanting to pay for
"three-cylinder' entertainment.
