BEST THEATRE,

Today-Vitagraph presents Amer
 ica's daintiest actress, Anita Stewart,
 in her very latest offering, "The Mes sage of the Mousse" In this produc- tion Miss Stewart is supported by Julia Swayne Gordon. It is story of what may happen after the war, full of romance, mystery and thrills. Anita Stewards gift for visualizing the public's idea of all that a pretty girl heroine should be both in looks and |deportment, is made good use of in this story, written by the Chesters. It is entertaining, we'll produced screen fic- tion woven around the engaging per sonality of typical magazine heroes.
 It's action is laid after the close of the war. The plot revolves around the attempt of five ambassadors from poverty stricken countries abroad to capture the trade of the world by us- ing American money to advance their own interests. The head of big ship building firm fails to see the danger of an alliance with foreign firms, but his daughter foresees trouble and cap- lures the arch-spies who are operating against the prosperity of the nation.
 The story is lively and imaginative and Commodore Blackston, in putting it in film form. has made clever use of melodramatic devices, such as slid ing panels, invisible ink and secret codes.
 Also there is two-reel Vogue com edy with Ben Turpin entitled Caught at the End"

Don't Let Soap
 Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair, be careful what you use. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very, injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle.
 The'best thing to use is just plain mul. sifed cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps or any thing else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and few ounces will last the whole family for months. /
 Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in, about teaspoonful is ali that is required. It makes an abup dance of rich, creamy father, cleanses thcr~ oughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle. Besides, t loo9ana and tasss oat every particle of dust d.st as. dansyrf.

At first sight it would seem that dy- namite was cargo to be carefully avoided. But from sailors point of view there are far more dangerous loads. He dreads for, instance, car go of sugar. Put hundreds of tons of cane sugar in casks in the hold of q vessel and let the ship steam through a bale of hot weather. The odor Is sickening. The sailors cannot get the sweet taste out of their mouths and crave vinegar or lemon juice-any- thing sour. They lose their apretites and are always glad when voyage on which the cargo is sugar is over. Cof- fee is as disagreeable as sugar, in ad- dition being very dangerous.

The Attitude of Our
Congress Is An Insult
To the American Flag

The country must-and we believe II
will-put its shoulder to the wheel with
Herbert C. Hoover and cooperate with
him to the fullest extent for food con-
troll
Vital as was the success of the Lib
erty loan: necessary rs is the fund for
the Red Cross; indispensable as are an
army and a navy and men and guns and
powder and shells, the food issue must
present itself to everybody as most i'm
portant Of ALL
The conservation Of food is the con
sevation Of strength. and by the way we
mass this food play will our strength be
Judged by the enemy country looking for
the first sign from us that we are unwill-
ing to sacrifice and endure hardship for
the cause in whose interest we have I'M
furled the flag and unsheathed the
sword.
In Hoover's hands, the food control
feature Of our forces is given TO a gen
eral Of proved Judgment, resourcefulness
and energy.
He is by no means lacking in courage.
In the face Of President Wilson's most
excellent choice for the head Of this de-
partment;
In the face Of the exigency, which is
understood by the urchins in our schools
In the face Of the willingness with
which the people Of the country stand
ready TO do their part.
The attitude and the opposition in
congress to the president and to the
nation amount 10 no less than an outrage.
The most charitable view we can enter
tain is that individuals in congress are
putting their ambitions before country
in the preparation Of an affront 10 the
American flag little removed from that
offered by the sinking Of the Lusitania
The victims of the food robbers, too,
are women and children
