Miss Mary Won Holt, whose picture
appears in this issue, is developing
into very versatile actress. She has
been lately taking keen interest in
local theatrical affairs, being secre
tary of The Footlights, and also a
popular member of the Lanai Play
ers. Several years ago she appeared
as the Queen in the Peacock Ballet
and since then has made iapid ad-
vances. Her work in the "Perplexed
Husband" was a revelation to all as
she played an unpopular part in a
very interesting manner. Miss Won
Holt plays the part of Margaret, the
maid, in "The Wonder Hat" one of
the three plays to be presented soon
by the Lanai Players.

and the title role lin "Rosalind," the
two other playlets which are to be
presented, together with 'The Won.

seen during the action of these plays
After returning from several years
study in Paris, she graduated at the
Academy of Dramatic Art In New
York, and was on the stage where
she was associated with some of our
most famous American actors After

her marriage to Mr.. r. N. Burnham,
the sculptor, recently appointed as
scout commissioner for Hawaii, she
left the stage and took up the Little
.Theater work in Boston as an outlet
for. her interest in the drama. This
work Of Little Theaters is being car
.rfed on in several large cities and we
are fortunate to have our own little
theater and help in the worldwide
movement of keeping up high dra-
matte standard. The group of three
playlets to be given on Thursday,

Eleven husky flag defenders were
shipped last night to headquarters for
enrolment in the United States
army. They enlisted the day before,
and three new ones joined yesterday,
two from Alabama and one from Mu-
lat, in Santa Rosa county.
It was reported yesterday that
quite a bunch is expected during to-
day and tomorrow, to attempt the
qualification test, and these are eX-
pected to swell the local enlistments
appreciably. Several young men who
were in the city yesterday stated that
it was their intention to join the army
Immediately, but some of them were
ret quite able to break away from
positions which they are now holding.
They have been assured Of relief early
III the week, it is said, and win then
come on to Pensacola.

MATURE BEANS
To INSURE NEXT
YEAR S CROPS

Gainesville, Fla, May 1.-THE fell
lowing statement is authorized b!
State Agent McQuarrie:
In view of the fact that quite ;:
percentage of the bean crop grow.
in this state will not bring satisfac
tory returns when shipped to mar
ket, it is suggested that all those
growing beans and other truck crops
should bend their energies to get tn
best part of these crops matured fol
seed for future planting.
There is no doubt, whatever, out
that bean and other truck crop seeds
will be very scarce for fall and next
springs planting; and the grower can
by proper selection and care, save
considerable money by taking care Of
their own seed.
The, growers who have been saving
their seed in the past appreciate this
and will no doubt make preparation TX
the end of having plenty of seed fol-
future use, but there are quite a mum
Der who have been depending upor
getting their seeds from seed houses
and it is on those men we want t.
impress the necessity of saving seeds
not only of beans but of cucumbers
tomatoes, cantaloupes and watermel
ems.

Jane Lee Ruffled BY New York
Police.

Miss Jane Lee, of that famous pair.
The Lee Kids, is having troubles of
her own. The latest thing which IF
fled the temperament of that four
year-old screen favorite VINO is now
appearing in William Fox's "a
Small Town Girl" showing at the Isis
tomorrow, was a New York police de-
partment order.
Without consulting Miss Lee, some
deputy commissioner, or perhaps the
commissioner himself transferred her
friend the traffic cop from Forty
Sixth street and Broadway. Before
the new policeman at that station
had time to become familiar with the
famous people in the neighborhood
Miss Lee went for a stroll to the >ox
offices. She had a little business
matter which, she thought, required
her attention.
Miss Jane Ib,~<.ed to the crossing.
Imagine her chagrin when the autos
did stop for her. Those brilliant eyes
began to sparkle. When the cop on
duty showed no intention of stopping
| traffic for her, Jane took the matter

Jane Tells Cop who's Who
A din of auto sirens and squeaking
brakes brought the policeman 10. He
saw the majestic though diminutive
form Of Miss J>@c Lee amblng
through that press of vehicles.
Hey, you" roared the policeman
as he bounded toward Jane and caught
her up in his arms. He carried the
squirming little actress to the side
walk, gave her a lecture on Safety
First" and started back to the middle
of the crossing.
Jane caught his coat.
where's Mr.. OReilly?" she de-
manded.
"He's transferred. Miss" was the
big fellows nreek reply.
"Do you know who I am ?" shot
back Miss Lee, sternly.
"No, Miss" The cop was now
thoroughly humbled.
"I'm Miss Jane Lee. Mr.. O'Reilly
always stopped the autos for me-"
Thousands of apologies were made
by the policeman. He humblT prom
ised never again to overlook the ia
nous little actress.
Jane thought for a moment. She
offered him her hand ana they shook
and made up.

MOST WOMEN SUFFER
FROM CONSTIPATION
and BILIOUSNESS

Almost all of the diseases which
the great majority of women are sub
ject to might easily be avoided or at
least lessened of only constipation
was entirely eliminated. Failure of
the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels
to perform their proper functions is
the prime cause of all their suffer-
ings.
II on the slightest sign of any de-
rangements of the bowels, women
would take a dose of simple herbal
remedy like Lebanon Herb Tablets
such as your doctor would prescribe,
there would be no complaining about
sick headaches, backache or feeling
weak, tired or languid all the time.
Not only would you wake up feeling
better, but you would also look bet
ter. Your eyes would be bright and
your skin clear and attractive.
Stop taking Calomel Salts, etc. and
get a small box of Lebanon Herb
Tablets from your druggist to-day.
Take as directions advise. If, after
taking them regularly. they do not
make you feel one hundred per cent.
better in a weeks time. you can have
your money back. Geo. A. Gorgas can

WAR FUNDS CALL
JARS CONGRESS
Leaders Astounded to Learn
$2,5OO,OOO,OOO Needed
for Artillery

Washington, Aug. 16.-Information
from Secretary McAdoo that two and
. half billions arc needed to provide
the American army with necessary
artillery came as a complete surprise
to congressional leaders yesterday.
They had supposed that every pos
sible contingency in the way Of
ample provision made for II IN the
$4,000, 100000 bond isuse of a few
months ago.
Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo's
demand for a credit of SO, 00O, 100000,
to be voted all, or nearly all, before
the first of the year, came as rude
shock to the leaders of the House
and Senate. The proposition to raise
$4,000, 100000 to lend to the Allies
is not entirely new, since ii has been
stated that they are in need of more
money, and that ii would take this
much to meet their requirements up
to June /, 1918. Nor did the state
ment that additional funds are need
ed by this government occasion so
much surprise. But for the Secre-
tary of the Treasury to come to Con-
gress with n demand for an imme-
date bond issue OF nine billions, and
with the information that two and a
half billions of that is needed for
artillery, rather took the breath of
Congress leaders. 1t threw a cold
blanket over peace talk and served
TO reduce the hope that had sprung
up over the pope's proposal. Sem
ators who have been discussing peace,
either from antiadministration or
from Humanitarian motives, had lost
much of their optimism and peace
talk in the Senate was postponed.
