Judicial process.
The first law abolishes the notoriou;
chief administration department for
press affairs" and the system of regis
trati"n, inspection. censorship and pen
alties associated herewith. Instead is
created a new press governmental or
gan known as the chamber of books. u

and for presentation to public libraries,
Further. in connection with the cham

The second law proclaims unquali-
lied liberty to print and reproduce, no

press in so far as it provides for COM
pulsory registration of printed matter
on the system prevailing in many Eu-

William Farnum, star Of "A Tale of
Two Cities" during the staging of the
big street scenes in which the Bastile
was stormed. enjoyed himself to the
very limit with his little kodak and a
roll of film.
So much color was there in the
great throng of plebans that swept
over the walls of the mighty prison,
that Mr.. Farnum's artistic sense was
constantly being aroused. And just as
often as it was aroused, just as GER
tainly his kodak shutter clicked and
there went into his record of films
some scene which will recall memories
in the years to come.
BY actual count Mr.. Farnum snapped

a host of others in still other group

Now the films are priceless. Mr.. Far
mum declares he would rather lose his
health, almost, than part with some of

Washburn in Skin
 ner's Dress Suit
Star Appears in Widely Read Saturday Evening Post Story, Filmed by Essanay-Friday.

Speaking of dress suits., Bryant Washburn, who is starred in Essan- avs delightful comedy feature, Skin ner's Dress Suit" tells the following story:
 T had a friend several years back who was in love with the daughter of a wealthy farm implement manufac- turer," said Mir. Washburn. My friends pocket book was of slender proportions and he was having great difficulty in keeping up the pace with his society associates. His girl in- vted him to her reception one even ing and he was at his wits end to provide himself with a dress suit in which to attend the affair. He finally solved the problem by borrowing one which belonged to another lodger in the boarding house. When the latter however, discovered that my friend had borrowed his dress suit to at tend the reception, he rushed forth with to the girls home. There, be- fore the entire assemblage, he charg- ed my friend with having purloined his evening clothes, and demanded that he take them off immediately"
 In "Skinner's Dress Suit" Mir. Washburn, as the "poor boob,' has better luck. However, the point driv- en home by this amusing photo-com- edy is the same, as the screen star goes on to explain:

That embarrassing incident" he continued, wiped out what had ap- peared a very good chance that my friend would claim his daughter of wealth as his wife His experience all goes to prove that if man has got in the parlance of the street.-the front he can get almost anywhere in this world. Take, for instance, MT. Skinner of the photoplay.
 MT. Skinner is a downtrodden, starving cashier in big mercantile house until his wife makes him buy dress suit and spruce up Then, through his good clothes, Skinner meets some rich people and is enabled to put over a big business deal for his firm. Thus he gains a

raise in pay and finally partnership in the business.
 There are millions of Skinners in this world. All they need is a dress suit to rise rapidly to fame and for tune. For, after all, good clothes a mans appearance-plays a forceful part in modern business Don't you think so?"
 "Skinner's Ores Suit" is an adapta- tion to the screen from the story of that title by Henry Irving Dodge, which was published in the Saturday Evening Post. It is a wholesome com edy of the most entertaining type. Hazel Daly supports MT Washburn. The play was directed by Harry Beau mont.
