The question arose who was to dra-
matize " Freckles," book play must
stick to the text of the story in both
word and deed, and this requires more
than a playwright; it requires a knowl-
edge of stage intrieacies and crafts
manship; Neil Twomey was given the
assignment, aud went to work diligent-
ly; that he succeeded, even above the
hopes of the producers, is attested by
four first class companies playing on
tour this season.
The success of 'Freckles " lies in its
simplicity. There are no characters in
modern fiction nor on the stage en-
dowed wi h such simple nobility,
sweetness and wonderful delineation as
has been given rreekles and the
Swamp Angel Mrs. Porter knows ma
ture, she has lived all her life in the
great Limberlost region Of Indiana,
it and writing about it. She
has achieved a position which can be
disputed by none; her fiction and her
plays are in popular demand.
This is not a moving picture but a
company of talented actors and sing
ers.

DANDRUFF SURELY
DESTROYS THE HAIR

Il X 4 X X X \ x X x X X X X X
Girls--if you want plenty of thick,
beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by an
means get rid of dandruff, for it wih
suarve your hair and ruin it if you
don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to dis
solve it, then you destroy it entirely.
To do this, get about four ounces of
ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at
night when retiring; use enough to
moistcn the scalp and rub it in gently
with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all of your
dandruff viii be fone, and three or
four more applications win completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it.
You viii find, too, that all itching
and digging Of the scalp will stop, and
your hair will look and feel a hundred
times better You can get liquid arvoR
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.

Turkey prices are rather uncertain.

Gold Stampede Fails

started that might have rivaled the
stampede of 1862. II 1t had been let
alone. But on close investigation
IL blew up.
Smith found gold nugget the
size of a pea In the craw of one of
his chickens. Other birds OF the
same flock were killed. A panning
of their interiors revealed several
nuggets. Expert mining men were
advised OF the discovery, and after
o quiet search reported they were
unable to find any indications of
gold deposits.
It then developed that Smith had
been feeding his chickens from
sacks which previously were used
for shipping gold ore from the Elk
City district, and tiny nuggets had
escaped the vigilance OF the men
who emptied the ore shipments.

INVISIBLE SHIP"
 AT BALTIMORE

Baltimore, Md, Dec. 27-The first of Thomas A. Edison's invisible ships" to come to Baltimore reached harbor today and dropped anchor off Quarantine. It is a new boat of Bri- tish registry and has just been com pleted after the original plans, chang ed somewhat by MT. Edison.
 As she appears in the harbor the freighter looks like any of the other boats at anchor. The towering masts, with their massive derrick booms, form the chief feature of the invisible plan, for they are hinged at the deck. When the vessel is entering the wat CTS infested by U-boats these masts are lowered to the deck in such a manner that they extend along each side near the rail, the smokestack is removed and any breaks left in the top line are boarded so th0t the ton line is straight In the neu -ral colors the ship is scarcely blot on the hor- izon. The decks are low and in the danger zone hard coal is burned so that she will leave no tell-tale trail of smoke.
