NO, Dave was sharp with his tongue when he'd been drinkin' but everybody knew he didn't mean it. He was a generous feller, too, always made up for his madness in Q free handed way. Besides wouldn't stand fer no fightin' in my house. It was a respectable place, I'll have you know."
 And yet" brokc in Langlon sharp ly, isn't it true that you twice warned David Pollock that he had better look out or somebody would get him'?''
 McGlone shifted uneasily, and his pompous air faded.
 Yes" he said. That true, but it wasn't particularly Dawes quarreling that made me say it.
 Did you ever hear any one make any threats against MT Pollocll?"
 Yes. You see, Dave was mixed up in some dirty work"
 'I object!" interrupted the District Attorney, leaping to his feet. Not only to the question of MT, LangdOn. but to the endeavor on the part of the witness to traduce a man who is dead. Your Honor, MT. Langdon has declared the defence to. repressed psychosis,' and under those circum- stances I declare the present testi- mony to be irrelevant, and request that it be stricken out"
 My defence is still repressed psy- chosis', your Honor, retorted Lang don quickly, but I call the attention of the court to the statement made by Dr. Foster, that if Miss Page was suf- fering from that when David Pol lock was shot, she would not have

picturized from Cervante's famous
 masterpiece.
 The Fox feature "A Modern Thel-
 ma'' is a story of the quaint life of
 the Northland, the land of the mid
 night sun. The production from be-
 ginning to end radiates with the
 freshness and exactness of detail
 which makes the spectator forget that
 he is living in the most modern
 country of the most progressive cen-
 tury All this was taken only by
 great pains and hardships in an jso-' lated mountain place in Georgia
 which was the only section of the
 American continent where the exact Scandinavian scenery could be found.
 Miss Vivian Martin is supported by
 an all-star cast of Fox favorites in cluding Harry Hilliard and William H. Tooker.
 Right on the heels Of Billie Burke in Peggy" as it were. with the same big screen possibilities comes DeWolf Hopper in "Don Quixote" pictured from Cervante's famous clas-
 sic and Fox patrons will have tho opportunity of seeing it today and
 tomorrow in addition to the Fox pie ture mentioned above. Don QuiX- ote'' is an interesting, dramatic and thoroughly amusing picture of life in the sixteenth century in Spain. "Don Quixote'' DeWolf Hopper) has become crazed by much reading on the subject of knight-errantry. He dcns armor. himself with sword and spear and rides away with his faith ful servant (Sancho Panza) in search of adventures. The Don is mounted
 on an old white horse. while his squire bestrides a mule. Don Quixote sees windmills and mistakes them for giants. He attacks them with his lance and he is overthrown, seizing a wing he is revolved through the air and thrown off, and as his ad- | ventures continue which offers much amusement to the spectators. i Tn addition to the above two men 1 toned attractions, Ford Sterling will 1 be seen in His Pride and Shame i two-reel Keystone comedy and several reels of exceptional entertain l ing value.

 With shrug of resignation tho Prosecutor dropped back into his seat, and Langdon, turning again to McGlone who looked bewildered by the battle Of the attorneys, said quiet ly:
 II will repeat my question, MT. Me Clone. Did you ever hear anyone make any threats against MT. Pol lock?"
 Well, as l said"
 But this time it was his Honor who interrupted.
 You must remember, MT. McGlone, that in answering questions, you must use only the direct yes or no. DO not digress or say why such threats were made. That question has not been asked you"
 "Then-yes," grumbled McGlone. q heard fellers make threats against him twice."

That's Gratitude

He who receives a benefit should never forget it; he who bestows it should never remember it.''-Char- ron.
 We had been talking theother day about an acquaintance of ours who is very unsocial and se1f-centered.
 But he's always very nice to the R--'s,' defended Molly; "always speaks we'll of them, and goes out of his way to be pleasant to them.''
 And why shouldn't he be-" said the Authorman's Wife Think of all they've done for him.'
 "Ah!" said the Cynic. And since when has it been easier to be nice to people who's done things for you?''
 ''It should be- persisted the Au- thorman's Wife.
 Easier to Be Nice to People You've
 Done Things For.
 "Yes, it should be-" conceded the Cynic; but, as a matter of fact, it's the hardest thing in the world. It's much easier to be nice to people that you've done things for. You enjoy their society because they stand for your credit instead of your debit account. You've bought the right to patronize them, and who WOuldn t rather patronize than be patronized ?''
 As a rule I disapprove of the Cynic's cynicism: but I must admit he has some grounds for it here.
 Too often gratitude is only "a lively sense of future favors."
 Just the other day heard a woman who has received much from another woman doing her best by in situation and comparison and faint praise (never a word of open criticism did she speak, she is too

willy for thaD to depreciate the others generosity.
 Generosity Is Heavy Burden.
 The burden of generosity is a heavy enc to bear. A man who would re- turn favor if he had the means and the opportunity, lacking them, will CUme to dislike his benefactor for keeping him in debt.
 Som etimes he shows it, as this woman did, again he hides it under pretense of gratitude, down in the depths of his heart where it testers and poisons his character.
 Self-love is one of the strongest human instincts and to be kept un- der an obligation is painful to it. 1t puts us in the attitude of looking up, and self-love does not like to look up. It wants to put itself on a. level with it's benefactor and does so not by raising itself by gratitude but. by hunting flaws in the chara cter of the benefactOr.
 Both Have to Walk the Chalk Line
 The only thing harder than to eiva gracefully is to receive gracefully. The relationship between benefac- tor and recipient is difficult to keen sweet and sane. On the benefactor's & side there is the danger Of being pa tronizng or eXacting, while the re- C}pient must walk the chalk line be- tween sycophancy and ingratitude Friendship is safest in an atmos- Ehere of independence. And yet
 true friendship should be capable both of receiving and giving. Because ingratitude is common ! does not mean it is any more excus- l able. And because true gratitude is ] rare does not mean it is any less ] right and beautiful. On the con- 1 trary.
