Catsup has fallen in line with 9TH

This exceptional increase is blamed

PROGRAM OF MERIT
 AT FOX'S. .THEATER

An a1-around good program is the
 Fox offering for tonight, as the huge
 crowds that screamed at Charlie Chaplin, and applauded June Caprice fast night can testify. It would be difficult to determine which of these two won the greater favor with the 1 audiences, as each was given a hearty reception from the fans. Miss Caprice appears in whimsical five-reel fea-
 ture of five acts, "Patsy,' in which she is absolutely captivating in the highly 1 unusual role of Patricia Brimmel, better known as Patsy, who, reared in the western mountains without the , refining influence of feminine con- panionship, developes into an innocent 1 Wild-roVing tomboy. For the good of her future, her father sends her to New York to live with an old friend while being educated, and complica- tions begin immediately upon her ar rival.
 Charlie Chaplins newest riot "The 1 Immigrant. is all that was promised 1 and a lot more. Knights of the Sad dle" is a whole wild west show in two
 reels, with a large cast of cow-punch- CTS and cow-girls who ride unbroken horses twirl the lariat. and perform many other feats of skill and daring. MT. and Mrs. Sidney Drew offer an- other one of their domestic mix-ups 1 in Safety First. The latest news as recorded by the Pathe Camera Is l among the other offerings of the pro- gram.
 The feature for Wednesday and Thursday will be Earl Williams in the great fve-act picturization of the sue cessful detective novel "Arsene Lu- pin."

REVELATIONS OF A WIFE
By ADELE GARRISON

Fairfax girls train with her, but sup pose it's because of her superior skill-they'd follow the devil if they thought he were an artist.
 An Unworded Appeal.
 I've heard them speak of this girls ability to make over hats, be- ]ieve she earned the money for her first art studies by working in a mill linery establishment, and suppose when the things came to the studio she saw her chance and took it. But I hope the Fairfax girls don't see us. They'll be awfully humiliated if they do.''
 Dicky paused, a little out of breath, and looked around at us, his audience, a little tfmorously. I knew that he naturally expected doubt of SO TO- mantle story, realized also, with a little thrill of joy as his gaze, earnest, yet difficult, rested on me, that it was>my verdict alone he awaited, that if I believed him, the opinions of the others did not matter.

Prosperity Haters
BY RUTH CAMERON

Other Peoples Successes Sour Them.
 And conversely, there are these people who like you better when you are not prosperous.
 These people can be sympathetic with other folks over their disap- pointments. and hardships. but they can't seem to hear of their successes without getting sour. They make sarcastic comments on how nothing is good enough for Mrs. So-and-so since her husband got that job." and how Mrs Someone Else throws mon- ey around since she inherited that money"
 They Bring Up the One All Important
 Subject.
 These are the people who could al- ways spend other peoples money more efficiently; the people who try to turn the conversation to other sub- jects (particularly the supremeTy in- teresting and important subject) when someone tells of neighbours good fortune or possessions
 It isn't pleasant or easy I grant you, when ones own fortunes are at a low ebb. to be continually congrat- ulating other people and admiring their possessions.
 It isn't pleasant nor easy no, but it's something far better than that, it's brave and fine to be able to do 1t cheerfully and cordially, and if pos- sible sincerely.

What ever did make Robert Bart lett act so grouchy?" asked someone the other night, "he hardly said a word"
 We had been to housewarming. Some young people who have had pretty hard time of it have finally fought their way through to com parative prosperity and have just bought a dinky little house.
 Robert Bartlett (which is not his name) was one of the guests at the housewarming.

 One Must Discount Her Opinion.
 The woman who spoke does not like MT. Bartlett so the value of her opin- ion must be discounted by that dis like. Nevertheless judging from past experience with the gentleman I think there is a good deal of truth in what she says.

Remove the blanched products from
the boiling water or steam and plunge
them quickly into cold water, the cold
er the better. Take them out imme-
diately and let them drain. Don't let
them soak In the cold water.
From this point on. speed is highly
important. The blanched vegetables
and fruits, which are slightly warm,
must not be allowed to remain out of
the containers a moment longer than
Is necessary.
Remove skins when required, and as

wash boiler or other large, deep vessel
to be used for sterilizing. This is for
the purpose of keeping the containers
from contact with the hot bottom of
the vessel and to permit the free cir
culation of water under them.
Fill the vessel with clean water so
that the boiling water will cover the
tops Of the jars or cans. Begin heat
Ing the water SO that it will be boiling
violently by the time the containers
are packed.
See that all cans or Jars are In good
condition and absolutely clean. ScaId
them thoroughly and put them in a
vessel Of water on the stove so that
they will be hot when the product is
ready for packing. Use new rubber
rings for jars and scald them Just be-
fore putting them on the jars.

The science Of flying has made such
tremendous strides the past few
years and flying machines have be-
come such matter of-fact things that
we sometimes forget that ten years
ago an aeroplane was considered al
most as a, supernatural wonder. The
first attempt to provide man with
wings so that he might soar as a bird.
was probably that of Watson F. Quin-
by, Delaware inventor, who received
United States patent on his invention
just forty-ffve years ago today. Pre-
vious flying machines had been based
on the balloon principle. but Quinby $
apparatus was entirely original. and
consisted of side and dorsal wings
constructed In semi-cir -ular form
about twelve feet in diameter. The
bat was used as a model by the In
ventor. The entire contrivance wal

men marched forth to conquer the
