IBsEN's "DoLL's HOUSE" ON THE
SCREEN.

Bluebird Photoplay Inc. is producing
Henrik IbSen's famous drama, "The
Dolls House" as a fve-reel feature,
under the direction of Joseph De
Grasse. This most celebrated Of all
the plays of the great Norwegian
dramatist has been an immense sue
cess on the speaking stage, and has
been played in almost every country
in the world where the theatre is an
institution. 1t has been translated into
all languages.
In the film version the principal
roles will be taken by Dorothy Phil
lips, who viii enact Nora. and Lon
CLANCY, who viii play her husband.
with William Il. StOwen in support.
The play is receiving the most careful
adaptation, and the settings and ac-
cessories viii all be as painstakingly

cess as a motion picture which 1t has

form the series. The stories were
published Originally under the title
'Yorke Norroy, Diplomatic Agent" and
had great success.
There are only two characters run
hing throughout the series of eight epi-
sodes. or adventures. The more impor
tant of these is Yorke Norroy, played
BY Kingsley Benedict, and he will be
found to be a creation as distinct and
individual as that of Sherlock Holmes
himself Benedict will be remembered
Tor many weIl-studied performances on
The screen.
He had seen no less than seventeen
years of stage experience before his
first picture engagement. He has trav-
eled extensively, making himself at
home in all countries. His stage work
was accomplished under the banner of
some of the most famous managers Of
our stage, Charles Frohman, and Klaw
and Erlanger, for example.

ter of Yorke Norroy, as Mr.. Howard
udS COnC6INGu IT, - lnG dulAAO1 y AIclSL-
ence that his hero has the appearance
of being merely a man of fashion, a
social favOrite, with no ambition above
the desire to be the best-dressed man
in his set and a delightful entertainer
Of pretty women. This exterior con-
cealS the real man, the keen intelli
gence and wonderful resOurcefulneSs,
the knowledge of men and women and
the proven courage, which make Nor
roy the trusted agent of his govern
ment. This portrait might almost be
that of Kingsley Benedict himself. OF
about medium height, with gray eyes
and ight-brOwn hair, rather slightly
built, always beautifully dressed and
wearing his clothes with an air Of
great distinction, Benedict gives no in
dicatioH in his appearance of being an
expert hOrseman, a wonderful swords
man and an all-around athlete. He is
fully competent to depict the travelled
adventurer, at home in all the Euro
pean capitals, for he knows them all
by personal experience.

SUBMARINES IN WARFARE.
Only Men of Iron Nerves and Quick
Decision Can Work Them.

1T calls for men of iron nerves and
quick decision 10 man our submarines

Z Evans in St. Nicholas. "Subma-
rine experts look upon the factor OF
nerves as the most important of all,
and they have given to it the title Of
calculation.
within the cramped walls that are
the home of the crew are housed the
most intricate mechanisms that man
has invented for warfare, Outside its
steel walls are mines, great nets of
wire, explosives. shells and seaplanes,

them as knife cuts cheese. The

nets can hold the submarine as help.

Danger lies everywhere for the IL

it lives is a powder tank that waits

captain in the face Of any OF them

MAKING GASES LIQUID.
knowledge of the "critioal Tempera-
ture" Solved the Problem.

knowledge of the "Critical Tempora-
ture" Solved the Problem.
In regard to the boiling points OF
liquid, there is an upper limit to the
point at which thing boils-that Is,
changes TO the state of vapor. 1t Is
called the critical temperature. No
matter how great a pressure exists on
substance, if 1t is at a temperature
greater than its critical it will change
to vaPor anyhow.
The ignorance Of this point held
back the making of liqueied gases
such as air, carbon dioxide, etc.-fOr
many years. The experimenters tried
to hquefy gases at ordinary tempera~
lures by enormous pressures, whereas
if they had just cooled the gases be-
low their critical temperatures before
applying the pressure liquefaction
would have ensued Immediately.
This is the method employed today
in making liquid air. The air is com
pressed at first and then allowed to
issue from a small orifice, thus eX
panding and cooling; is then pumped
back and compressed by the pump, al
lowed to go through the orifice again.
thus cooling still more, until at last 1t
is below the critical temperature, when
the compression caused by the pump
liquefies 1t.

Natura of sIaan.

Investigation by scientists OF the ma
ture of the sleep of persons In normal
health shows that it varies according
to the daily diet and the different hours
at which sleep is begun. Altogether
the ideal hour for retiring is 10 O'clock.
The sleep Of a person going to bed
regularly at approximately this time
gradually augments in intensity for the
space of an hour 1t then suddenly be
comes very profound reaching its max
imum intensity at about 11:30 O'Clock.
Within five or six minutes from this
time it has been found that the sleep
begins to be less deep. In an hour the
sleeper is again in the same condition
Of slumber as at about 11:15. From
this time until after o'clock the rest
is steady and light From ? until 4

To Keen From LOSING Breath.

Where respiration is rhythmical there
Is no loss Of breath in walking fast,
running uphill or going upstairs. The
method Of preventing breathlessness
consists IN maintaining the rhythm and
the speed Of respiration. When the
breathing is rhythmic the breathing
keeps pace with the step. The out
breathing must be twice the length
of the inbreathing, and not more than
eighteen or twenty complete breath cir
cults must be made per minute.
