Viola Dana one of the daintiest and best loved of screen artists who is d real star. and who has won her spurs in pictures makes her bow on the Metro program today at the Columbia opening with matinee at o'clock.
 She comes in aN play of the west and the effete east called The Flow CT of No Mans Land" and the critics of all the eastern trade papers give her splendid recognition in the part of the little flower who through an un- happy marriage is transplanted to the east from her mountain home.
 Her discovery of the former mar riage of the supposed husband, who forgoes the formality of a divorce to wed her sends her back to her friends in the big country. where God made men with hearts that would not seem dwarfed in the all out doors which was theirs.

 Han is supposed to he the daughter of a southern colonel. who while living in genteel poverty in his old mansion, despiscs the new order of things
 about him, and has reared her in utter ignorance of the world outside. She has no companions but two old negro servants and her animal pets.

 on the great gontihty of their sub l jects; again 1t may be merely re-
 counting she> list of names in the record of the old family Bible But
 always the lesson insidiouslv brings
 the truth home to her that she must

According to local report, this peak
has been ascended only twice, in 1872
and 1894. As the snowclad mountains

Howard and Prison Fever,

Typhus, which under the name Of
prison fever was once rampant in
England, held no terrors for John
Howard, the prison reformer. While
in a cell he would hold to his nose a
vial of aromatic vinegar and on going
home would wash and change his
clothes, though even these precautions
he later abandoned. People thought
his powers bordered ON the magical,
pressed him for his secret and refused
to believe his explanations that his
immunity was due to fearlessness,
cleanliness and temperance. He ate
no flesh and very little Of anything; he
drank neither wine nor spirits and
went to bed early and rose early. And
his asceticism enabled him to let light
into the most noisome dungeons and to
live to the age of sixty ty-four.-London

Laroe.t Hydraulic LIT Lock.

The largest hydraulic lift lock in the
world is at Peterborough, Canada. 1t
consists Of two great steel boxes or
pontoons, moving up and down be-
tween guiding towers. When boat
moves into one Of the two pontoons the
lock gates are closed behind it, and
water is pumped into the other pom
tOon until it becomes heavier than that
containing the boat, which then, being
overweighted, rises bodily into the air
until it reaches the level of the upper
canal. The boats are lifted total dis
tance Of sixty-five feet, the gates and
capstans being operated entirely by
hydraulic power. The time of lockage
for boats is about twelve minutes, the
actual time of the vertical lift being
one and one-haf minutes.-St. Nicho-

and then she waits for the baby to fol-

The mother lets it get struck in the

trunk over the bough to hold 1t down,

that he could do all sorts Of things, but
he wanted to be able to do even great,

bathed in its blood and made his skin
as hard as horn, except In one place,
where leaf protected the skin. He
had a cape that made him invisible
and a wonderful sword, but he alss
had an enemy. A girl whom he loved
named Chriemhild, told his enemy. Ha-

ELECTRIC LIGHTS FOR Farmer

Professor McNair Endorses This Sys.
tenn Of Lighting For Farm Homes.
Safety and convenience are impor-
tant factors to be considered by those
who propose to install an improved
lighting system in the home as well rs
In the outbuildings. With these facts
in mind Professor G. B. McNair Of the
Kansas Agricultural college strongly
indorses the electric lighting system
for the farm. On this subject he says:
Twelve years ago farm lighting plants
were novelty; today they are rapidly
growing in popularity. They are usual
ly operated by gasoline engine, but I'm
the eastern states and especially in the
Appalachian mountains 1t is not un-
common to see water power used for
this purpose. Where the people have
water power the storage battery is not
used.
In every state where farmers care
at all for convenience one will find a
number of lighting plants. Some farm
ers prefer the blaugas, acetylene or
gasoline lighting systems, so that they
may utilize the heat, but there is GER
tain element Of danger in using these
systems.
Plants, including engine, generator.
battery and switchboard, can be bought
for $134 up. One must bear in mind,
however, that one gets only what one
pays for, consequently it may prove
poor economy to buy the cheapest
plant. Such plants are Of very small
capacity, will operate only a few lights
and must be charged every day.
A plant such as the average farmer
owns costs about $500, which does not
include the cost OF installation, wiring
Of house, cost OF fixtures and similar
items. Where farmer can buy power
from company whose line runs near
his house he will find it much more
economical to do this than to put in
his own plant. In the first place, there
Is no upkeep expense on the plant, and
his yearly bill from the company will
not equal the interest and depreciation
alone for the private plant. The aver
age bill for light to such a user would
be about $50 a year. e..
The housewife who has. electricity on,
the farm does not have ito bother with
smoke or dirt from gas or oil lamps.
She uses It for lighting her house, for
doing her ironing, sewing, washing.
sweeping and toasting the bread for
breakfast.
The farmer finds the electric light
safe and convenient light for his barn.
