THE ORPHEUM

Within the Law, not only the most
vivid and stirring, but without doubt
the most satisfying drama ever writ
ten, was produced by the Crpheum
Stock company to crowded house
last evening
1t is more than a play of suspense
and situation; it has a real and vital
theme, and it possesses a question alb
soiutely unanswerable under present
conditions. There are few strainings
of the probabilities In this melodrama,
and therefore realistic and fast play
ing made it seem intensely real. The
part of Mary Turner dominates the
play, and the role was spIendidly act
ed by Miss Bentley, Miss Lucille Smith
was very amrsing as Agnes Lynch.
Miss Helen Lewis should be commend
ed for playing cleverly the emotional
bit which stood we'll out of the second
act! The men in their parts were all
successful in creating their atmos-
phere and maintaining 1t.
Prominent in the cast were two well
known local young people. Miss Sallie
Irwin and Hewison Pollock, both of
whom have formerly appeared in anna
teur productions under the direction of
the local schools.

Big OVATION
FOR M'CUNBER
AT FESSENDEN
Republican Success in Wells
County Assured-Re-
peatedly Cheered

Fessenden, N. D.. Oct. 1S~One of
the largest crowds ever gathered in
Wells county to hear a political
speaker, was present at the court
house last night when Senator P, ].
McCumber delivered an address that
brought forth repeated appause, and
further awakened the interest taken
by local people in the national cam
paign.
A Republican rally was held in
connection with the senator's speech,
and the presence of the precinct COM
mittee of the county further augmen-
ted the number attending and the in
terest displayed in Republican sue
cess this fall.
Many came from the furthest boun-
daries of Wells county. The Fessenden
concert band livened the occasion with
music.
Never did the North Dakota SEN
ator appear in better form than when
with penetrating logic he showed the
audience the folly Of allowing this
country to be subjected to the ruinous
Democratic policies of trade after the
great war had ended. The administra-
tion'S Mexican policy was discussed,
and Senator McCumber's position in
the foreign relations committee gave
him an opportunity to know the in
| side facts in regard to it. He pre-
dtcted the election of Hughes, and
| Judging of the approval of his repre-
sentative audience, not only will Wells
county vote overwhelmingly for the
: Republican nominee for president, but
they will do likewise for the re-eIec-
tion of Senator McCumber to help
| assure a Republican majority in the
| United States senate.

R,,+ we are living in a golden age.

But we are living in a golden age.
Country house architecture ID the east
today has reached high standard OF
excellence due to the arrival OF
great generation Of men well trained
In architecture and with spiendld
affection for their work, and, further'
to widely growing appreciation on
the part of the public of simple gooo
taste and of the Importance and the
possibilities of the country home. we
have made wonderful strides in the
architecture of our country houses.
The country house today in the east
as it has been for generations in Eng
land, is more important than the one
in town. The building Of villas has
given way to the building Of homes.
We have entered upon an era OF
good taste. Will we be patient enough
to continue there or will the next
decade see us impatiently rushing on
to original absurdities? We have tried
almost every type and period of for
eign art and have come back home
to the styles which f1ourished among
our American ancestors. God forbid
that we leave their conscientious and
orderly development for the styles OF
China and Japan-which alone we
have left untouched.

Dandruff Surely
Destroys The Hair

Girls-if you want plenty Of thick.
beautiful. glossy, silky hair, do by all
means get rid of dahdruff, for it will
starve your hair and ruin 1t II you
don't.
It, doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash 1t out. Tho only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve
it, then you destroy 1t entirely. To do
this, get about four ounces of ordinary
liquid arvon; apply it at night when
retiring; use enough to moisten the
scalp and rub it in gently with the
finger tips.
BY morning, most Ii not all, of your
dandruff will be gone. and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of 1T.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging Of the scalp will stop, and
your hair will look and feel hundred
times better. You can get liquid arvon
at any drug store. 1t is inexpensive
and four ounces Is all you will need,
no matter how much dandruff you
have. This simple remedy never fails.

COP. TO
WIN n. D.
HANDILY
McCumber Will Get Bigger
Vote Than Hughes, Says
Chairman Lemke
CRITICISM IS JUSTIFIED
Presidential Candidates
Line of Action Winning
Approval

Charles Hughes will carry North
Dakota with a big margin, while Unit
ed States Sen. Porter J. McCumber
will be reelected with an even greater
majority than is accorded the presi-
Dental candidate.
That is the sizeup of the political
situation in North Dakota as it comes
from William Lemke, chairman of the
Republican state central committee.
In other words, Chairman Lemke
regards John Burke as a weaker
candidate for the senate, than Wood
row Wilson is for the presidency.
Fewer Republicans are for Burke
than are for Wilson," said Mr.. Lemke.
There Is no question as to the out
come. The Republican nominees will
win this state without trouble-and
as the actual facts in the present
campaign come to be more generally
known, the outcome is made just that
much more certain.
Cry is Abandoned.
Where is the cry-'he's knocking
Wilson'-raised by the Democrats
when Charles Hughes took the stump
several weeks ago? 1t has been
abandoned, as the people have found,
on study, that Mr.. Hughes criticism
of the administration has been based
on fact; Mr.. Hughes has laid before
the nation the record of the admins
tration without pity; he has opened an
honest criticism Of the deeds Of the
Democrats that the country cannot
ignore.
Mr.. Wilson successfully hushed UP
criticism Of his record .on the Mexi-
can question for years, by statements
not based on facts, and by threats.
n hot
cans in Mexico wanted intervention.
They didn't-they only wanted Presi-
dent Wilson to keep his hand off the
situation. Then the president threat
ened to expose them." and up to a
short time ago, he successfully
squelched criticism of his record.
Had Escaped Criticism.
"The Wilson administration had
successfully escaped criticism till Mr..
Hughes took the stump-then raised
cry Of horror, attempting to blind
the people. But as his charges, one
by one, have failed Of explanation and
adequate defense at the hands of the
administration-the people have be-
come convinced that Mr.. Hughes was
thoroughly justified in his course
"Mr. Wilson seeks the presidency
for another term on his record Had
Mr.. Hughes permitted that record to
stand unquestioned, Democrats today
would have been abroad in the land,
declaring that Hughes found nothing
to criticize. AS a matter of fact, there
is SO much in the Democratic adminis-
tration that is open to just criticism,
that the people are just beginning TO
grasp the real truth-and are becom-
ing awakened to the seriousness of
continuing the Wilson administration
in Office.
Lavish Attention.
"In North Dakota, Republican voters
are being given lavish attention at
the hands Of the Democrats-but with
out effect. Republican voters in this
state will name Hughes electors Re-
publican voters will return Porter J.
McCumber to the United States SEN
ate, and they will elect the RepubIi-
can state ticket"
