AT THE LYRIC THEATER

For Saturday and Sunday at the Ly-
ric Mae Murray will hold the screen
in a perturbation of that fascinating
sensation The Dream Girl" Made up
of romance and adventure, of low life
and high life, Of honor and dishonor,
but with the gripping, convincing
domination of the pure soul of beau
tiful young girl standing out promin-
emily throughout, is the main strik-
ing features. Mae Murray plays the
part of poor girl born in the slums
her young life surrounded by handi-
caps on every side. In spite Of her sur
roundings the girl has love for ev-
erything beautiful, which in the end
brings happiness and just reward.
There will be the usual Bray cartoon
at both the matinee and night.
For Wednesday and Thursday the
booking will be Under Cover" with
Hazel Dawn and Owen Moore holding
down the main lead parts. Under
Cover" is rather a unique story. II
you were young woman, born in the
smartest set in New York society, if
your youngest sister had committed a
crime, if in order to save her, you
were forced to become secret agent
of the United States government to
aid in the detection of man who had
struggled in a 100000 necklace, If
you fell in love with the smuggler,
and if it became choice between the
sister and the smuggler, what would
you do?

Chicago, Nov. 24-Corn-Local trad
ers were disposed to press the selling
side early, but became discouraged
when the market made new high fig
ures and short covering was general,
while the leading holders were liberal
sellers. The market turned weak in
the late trading, and the close was at
moderate losses from last night. Larger
receipts are indicated for the early
part Of the week and throughout the
season, as the war board is issuing
orders for cars to western roads in
much larger volume. 1t would seem a
difficult task to hold the market so
close 10 the maximum price during the
period of larger receipts. in which re-
spect this year will probably be no eX
ception.
Oats-Strength in oats was marked
during the early part of the day, and
was an important factor in the advance
in corn. The December delivery
reached the record price Of Il cents,
which in pre-war times was high
price for December corn. Offerings at
this figure were 50 liberal as to cause
a substantial setback. Increased re-
ceipts are anticipated.
Stocks-Profit taking and consider
able pressure from floor traders re-
suited in moderate recessiOns for the
majority of the list. The greatest
handicap to bull activities is the for
eign political situation with Italy hard
pressed and RUSSO a non-contender.
Economic conditions at home have as
sumed a more favorable outlook.

Comic Cookery.

To boil an egg, you first catch the
egg. Never take any Of the IS eggs
under the hen. Having caught the
egg, prepare a kettle Of water hot
enough to shave with, but don't stop
to shave. You continue to heat the
water while peeling the egg. An egg
should be peeled from left to right, al
ways, as otherwise you peel against
the grain. Catch the water ut pre-
cIsely 76O degrees Fahrenheit, which
you can ascertain by inserting the IN
dex finger in the kettle. Then With
hammer, nails, and tongue-and-groove
boards construct small chute, or
slide, which you can attach to the cell
Ing, leaving the lower end to swing IN
the kettle. You then roll the peeled
egg down the chute into the water.
You may then throw away the chute.
Allow the egg to boil until completely
finished. soft, medium, or adamant, 10

lift the egg gently but insistentiy, Of.
