Are You Looking Old?

Old age comes quick enough with
out inviting it. Some look old at
forty. That is because they neglect
the liver and bowels. Keep your
bowels regular and your liver healthy
and you will not only feel younger
but look younger. When troubled
with constipation or biliousness take
Chamberlain Tablets. They are in
tended especially for these ailments
and are excellent. Easy to take and
most agreeable in effect. Obtainable

| Two years pass. Marion still chafes
7 eunder the yoke of society, and she
and Howard drift apart. Howard
meets Nina Blakemore, fascinating
woman of the world, and spends more
time with her than with Marion. Up.
on learning this, Marion remon-
strates, but her appeal to Howard is
useless. Marion,s disregard for So
clety, her lack of desire to attenant to
dress to please her husband, and Nj
mas charming consolation, widen the
preach. Marion is deeply in love with
| her husband, and determines if any
woman Is clever enough to take him
away from her, she is going to meet
her on her own ground. She gives a
dinner party two days later, and in
vites Nina as her honored guest.
Marion astounds her guests by APP
pearlng IN a magnificent evening
gown, completely outshining Nina,
even in the eyes of Howard After
the evenings entertainment, Howard
asks Whitney to see Nina home, and
there is reconciliation between Mar

the first place real human interest
story is there. 1t is entirely original.
It illustrates one of the most admira-
BILE traits in the Irish character. A
man or woman with real Irish
heart cannot betray confidence.
Nothing is more repellant to the Irish
character than to be an "informer.' :
Nora Flynn is only a poor, simple
little servant, but she has this admira-
BILE trait of her race to a marked de-
gree. Driven to bay. disheartened

fuses to betray her mistress. True,
her mistress has done nothing for her,
even plots against her, but she is
staunch in her human loyalty, and
out of her sacrifice and suffering is
born happiness to others. Surely
there never was a finer theme for
strong, clean film play.
Marie Doro has excellent support.

Louisiana Teachers Take Notice.
The women of New Jersey consti-'
tute thirteen-ffteenths of the teach

Of the income of the State Teachers
Association, which is controlled by
the men; also, they contribute the
greater part Of the income Of the

time male teacher is retired he gets
the maximum annuity, while the wo-
man teacher may not get half az

following comment on this condition:
The woman teachers in the public
schools have organized for their PRO-
lection. It is doubtful, however,
whether the women will be able to
get their rights through organization.
What they really need is the ballot,
which influences legislators and the
boards Of education to listen to the de-
mands made By the men, who do ex-
actly the same work as the women
but at salaries that are practically

Maine by more than 1900. They
have elected the governor. two senl-
tors and the four members of Con-

election proves that the Progrcssives

A Republican majority Of less
than 10000 might have left room
for argument. but majority of 49,
600 Is regarded as making 4 Repub-
