TRUCKING THE cREDULous.

Jasper, in Leslie's: Will persons
with money never learn how to cake
care of it? Will they never guard
themselves against the horde Of
tricksters who make a business of
taking advantage of the credulous,
and especially Of credulous women?
Bear in mind that no one will
make money for you when he can
make it for himself. If he offers to
give you the key to wealth, suspect
him, for such keys are kept by their
possessors and not given away to
strangers.
The postoffice a year or two ago
showed that over $150,000,000 had
been lost by persons who listened to
the gold brick schemers, but the
game still goes on despite the vigil
ance of the postoffice department
and the passage of protective meas
ures, known as "bluesky laws" by
many states.
Will the people never learn to dis
count the alluring literature which
these shysters send out, and which
is written for them by some of the
sharpest and brightest writers Of
our day, whose services can be easily
obtained for q few dollars?
1 advise my readers who receive
these tempting propositions to send
them at once to the postmaster gen.
eral at Washington for investiga-
ton. That is the business Of the
postoffice department and it will be
only too happy to take up such mat
tiers.
Small investors are particularly
the victims Of these 'bunco"
schemes, for the false notion pre-
walls that a man or woman with a
small amount of money cannot buy
high class Investment securities such
as successful investors prefer. This
Is erroneous. An investment can
now be made in the best of paying
securities with as small an amount
as $40 through the partial payment
plan, which is readily understood,
though the term may sound formid-
able

PLAYERS DEATH
MAKES TROUBLE.

The death of a minor player is
often a more serious matter in the
movies than on the stage. One of the
players appearing in the support of
Jane Cowl died after a considerable
portion of the film had been ex-
posed. 1t was necessary to rebuild
six sets that formed the backgrounds
for the fifteen scenes already taken.
Miss Cowl is scheduled to complete
two photoplays before the opening of
the new season, which will see her
again in Lilac Time and will bring
forth another play from the pens Of
herself and Jane Murfin. 1t is called
Daybreak.
Mary Martin, now playing oppo-
posite William Farnum, writes poetry
in her spare time, or did until she
discovered that ink has gone up in

Charles Ray has a new red car.
His friends call it the Red Devil"
but his own name for it is "Tobasco."

duced a picture called THE Lesson"

authentic facts of the small com
munity groups lie the basic truths OF
existence. The scenario writer-at
least the majority of him1is too lazy

Lois Weber, who has written scena-
rios, directed their conversion into

There is no reason to expect, says
Miss Weber, that the screen viii re

ginning to tire of highly romantic

In the Culver City studio of the
Triangle corporation the most elab-
crate set ever constructed there has
