EPISODE ".

A murmur of excitement crept about the reporters table as well as among the spectators This was great stuff,'' and when Mary's trembling hand came back from its impotent reaching toward her mother and went sharply to her left shoulder, there was no one in the room who needed the answer to Langdon's ques- ton.
 Which shoulder was that mark upon, Mrs. Page" The left one.'' How long was 1t before the child stopped screaming ?'' Several hours, and she was fever ish and ill for days.' Langdon's voice now changed abruptly and the prosecutors eyes narrowed to the watchfulness of a cats, as the former asked: On the night when your daughter repudiated her engagement to David Pollock, were you sitting up waiting for their return from a dance?" "Yes'
 Will you tell the court as briefly as possible what occurred ?" u "dS very late. 1 0du De0u walt ing what seemed to me hours before they came in. MT. Page, who was very much under the influence of liquor, was berating Mary, and once he started to strike her, but MT. Pol lock interfered, telling me that Mary and I had better go and try and get some rest. Once in her own room however. my daughter broke down and sobbed and said, Your grief and fathers danger made me accept MT Pollock. Tonight I tried to run away with Philip, becaues he is the man I 1ove-but I am helpless in your hands, y
 Did you still urge Miss Page to marry MT. Pollock?"
 NO. My daughters happiness was too great price to pay to save my husband from the penalty of his crime, and I told Mary that she and I together would go to David that very day and plead with him to set her free. It was dawn then, and finally she went to sleep"
 "Did you make that plea to MT. Pollock?"
 NO. We went to the off1ce-but- but-we didn't sec Mir. Pollock,

Pollock, anyway, but before we could go into the office we heard a door creak, and my husbands voice" :" She broke off with smothered sob, and Langdon prompted her quickly:
 What did your husband say, Mrs. Page?"

 Yes. Shortly after MT. Langdon had come, my husband and MT. Pol lock told us that he had bought the mortgage on our home.

THE BLINDNESS OF
 VIRTUE" AT LYCEUM

The much talked of play "The Blindness of Virtue" has it's premier in this city tonight and comes herald = ed as one of the most interesting dramas of the present day.
 Certainly it had every thing it's own way in conservative old Boston. and there is no harder city to conquer than that place called the Hub. New York is a school boy in comparison, regarding censure
 The clergy of both Boston and Philadelphia had much to discuss re- garding the theme of the play. The question in point is, is it better to be honest with your children when they are buding into the realities of wom- anhood and manhood. or is it better to allow them to discover all them selves? This question has created an interest that few plays ever created, because the story is so pure and sweet that it cannot offend the most narrow.
 As the play concerns a noble cu- rate and his immediate family, nc- cessarily it must be refined.
 MT. Cross and ms company are we'll suited to give COsmo Hamllton's success just the proper touch, be- sides the beautiful settings that Ken dal Weston has promised.
 Miss Cary Lowe. who has been playing the role of Cookie" in the New York production of the play, has been especially, and with much difficulty, engaged for the production.
 Dow stope manager Gjrade Pat terson, also takes up his duties ir this production, while MT. Cross, MT. White, MT. Sheffield, Miss Herne, Miss Booth and Miss Rearder, play tho principal characters. Last week broke all records for attendance, and it is safe to predict another success, equal ly big.

URIC ACID IN MEAT
 BRINGS RHEUMATISM
Says little Salts in water n1ay save you from dread
 attack.

rheumatism is easier to avoid than to cure, states a Wellknown auth ority We are advised to dress warmly; keep the feet dry; avoid exposure; eat less meat, but drink plenty of good water.
 Rheumatism is a direct result of eating too much meat and other rich foods that produce uric acid which is absorbed into the blood. It is the function of the kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast it out in the urine; the pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this impurity. In damp and chilly cold weather the skin pores are closed thus forcing the kidneys to do double work, they become weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate the uric acid which keeps accommodating and circu- lating through the system, eventually settling in the joints and muscles causing stiffness soreness and pain called rheumatism.
 At the first twinse of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of lad Salts; put tablespoon full in a glass of water and drink be- fore breakfast each morning for a week. This is said to eliminate uric acid by stimulating the kidneys to normal action, thus ridding the blood of these impurities
 lad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and is used with excellent results by thousands of folks who are subject to rheumatism. Here you have a pleas ant, effervescent lithia water dr1nE which helps overcome uric acid and is beneficial to your kidneys as well.

ized into five acts of motion pictures and when shown in New York was voted as one of the dramatic hits of this season in the silent drama
 The Fine Arts present Orrin John son and Seena Owens in ''The Peni- tents,' a Griffith production with scenes laid in New Mexico two cen 1urles ago when a fanatical religious society known as The Penitents'' t1ourished which opposed all churches and creeds. The story is wonderfully done and throughout the five acts the spectator is held in grip of tense and highly dramatic action that thrills and excites the imagination
 In conjunction with the above two mentioned features of sterling quality the Keystone studios offer Ford Ster- ling supported by a big cast of Key stone funmakers in ''The Hunt a roaring two reel comedy that will add much in making today's offering a diversified one. Several single reels of careful selection will frame the balance of the splendid offering that compares favorably with any pro- gram offered at higher prices in this and other cities.

Remembering Names

Memory is the treasurer of the mind. ."-Cicero.
 q can always remember faces per fectly but simply cant recall names"
 If I could only remember one half the interesting things I read and kear!"
 How often one hears people make complaints of that nature! And how seldom one finds anyone who does anything beyond complaining. The vast majority of us put ur With woe fully inefficient "treasurers of the mind" all our lives, because we are convinced that all memories are fundam entally good or bad, just as some men nre large and others small. The System Used By a College Pro-
 lessor.
 This is not true The memory can be trained to do its work. There arc many systems, but the simplest l ever heard of is that used by a fla nous college professor.
 To fix the names of all the people he meets in the course of a day in his mind, for all time, he uses the brief period of Wakefulness that in tervenes between the time of getting into bed and falling asleep. He re- peats them several times. Then, when tbe name is definitely placed, he con l jures the face that accompanies it. l The next morning, as ne dresses, he l reviews his lesson of the night before. ! In the course of the year he meets many people-his classes number up to five hundred, and he lectures az Well-but he seldom or never forgets eth CT a, name or a face.
 This Is How He Remembers What He Reads.
 The professors met hod of commit ting to memory the substance of the worthwhile things read or heard is perhaps less novel, but it surely is not commonly practised. Let us assume that you have read an article on Mex possible, a resume of the article. Con- ico. Sit down and write, as briefly as dense the outstanding facts to the smallest possible compass.
 The mere act of putting your mind to the task of getting at the crux of what you have read, plus the impres- sion on the memory made by the act of writing it down and then rereading it, accomplishes the desired end, un- less you have a genuinely poor mem- ory.

Everyone likes to be remem- bered, and such a confession is usual ly accepted as an attempt to evade the whole and even more em barra ssing truth, which is that we have forgot ten both face and name, and are lOatt to admit t. The person who is widely popular is the person whose acquaintance with names as well as faces is above the average.
