Every woman in Washington will
find something personally appealing
in the photoplay which is shown at
Loew's Columbia Thester today.
How to Manage A Husband" with
Fannie Ward in the leading role, is
the main attraction, but the cold
biooded title does not by any manner
of means express the touching human
ity of the appeal and revelation.
The popular dream OF every wife IL
realized in this photopiay, for the
heroine II none other than that which
every. wife supposes herself rightly
or not) to be-a down-trodden crea-
ture of a profiigate spendthrift.
she, the heroine, finds herself an
heiress, on the eve OF the day In which
she discovers that her husband Is q
race track fend, enslaved by another
woman, and ruined by III planned sor-
ties on the Stock Exchange.
How she gets him back" with airs,
clothes, and graces, Is depicted with
such satisfaction as to charm overy
woman who sees the flm. All Of the
malicious revenge which one might
expect Is tempered with maay baskets
OF Goals of fire, heaped on the head of
the errihg husband with wHely right
eousness.

BELGIUM THANKS WILSON
PremIsr Says Martyred Nation
EoreaaM support for Its Honor.


President Wilson has received the
following message from Charles de
BroouevIIIe, the Belgian premier and
minister of war:
"The Belgian government decided In
August, 1914. to make an unprece'
dentAd application to your excellency.
II was an act OF faith and hope in the
moral grandeur OF q republic friendly
to Belgium. Our people, small In num-
Der, but strong in indomitable pur-
pose, had foreseen that in the Ameri-
can nation and in you who are It's no
BILE expression, II would fnd support
for It's honor and an avenging arm for
its martyrdom. 1t has clearly distin-
gufshed between those groups that
have directed the assault against the
rights OF peoples and those that have
deemed 1t necessary to follow them,
moved perhaps by a false understand
ing Of solidarity that has been accept
ed for other objects than the gratui-
tous aggression of which civilization
was the victim in 1914.
"The royal government has con-
tracted an unforgettable debt to the
generosity OF the United States of
America. As in 1914 II counts upon
her aid to those whose only fault was
to have thought like free and honest
men and acted rather as the servants
OF honor than as. traders in It, The
Belgian government salutes with JOY,
emotion, and respectful admiration the
decisive act that through the inter
mediary OF your excellency. honors

Marguerite Clark is at once whIm-
sical and charming in her portrayal of
the title role OF The Fortunes OF
Fiji" a picture which held the screen
at Crandalrs Savoy yesterday and is
being repeated today. .-
Miss Clark is pictured as a little
French actress. endowed with almost
monumental conceit.. who fails TO
realize that the failure of the very
first production in which she has q
part reflects in any, way upon her
own ability. She goes to Paris and
is forced to content herself with a
very small role. 49,
An old actor. Cartouche. takes her
under his wing and later presents
her with a lottery ticket. Fiji finds
herself in the possession OF a fortune
when IL IL found that her ticket bears
the winning number. Then commences
a round Of Eayety which ends only
when the entire sum is recklessly
squandered. --...-.
incidentally, however, Fiji finds q
husband and the pictures come to an
end in a very happy fashion.
Commendable photography and able
direction combined with the excellent
work of Miss Clark and. OF the sup
porting cast, make this a picture OF
unusual interest
Tomorrow's attraction is THE Bar

BARRED FROM BABY, .
She TRIES TO DIE.
Mother, Thwarted by child's
Father, Throws Herself
Into Bay.

NEW YORK, April 9.-hfter her
husband, from whom she has been
separated for five weeks. refused
yesterday to permit her to see her
baby to whom she had gone with an
armful of toys, Mrs. Tessie Ranne,
nineteen years old ran mile
and q half through Queens county
with a policeman who suspected her
purpose in pursuit.
Her race ended in Jamacia Bay, In
to which she flungsherself, trying to
hold her head under the surface, but
the policeman made a hard struggle
brought her to shore and locked her
up on a charge of attempting suicide.
Mrs. Ranne has, been living since
the separation at 40 Seventh avenue,
Brooklyn. Her husband, August, and
the baby have been living at 1853
Brinkmeyer avenue, South Ozone
Park, Queens. The baby is eighteen
months old.
Pleads To See Child.
Mrs. Ranpe presented herself at her
husbands home with a bundle of
toys. She rang the bell; her husband
answered, and when he saw who
stood there he slammed the door. she
said later.
She stood on the steps pleading to
be allowed to see her child for even
a few minutes: her husband shouted
refusals through an open window.
Then.sh asked to be allowed to
give the child the, toys: her husband
refused. Finally. as an act OF great
and almost overwhelming Kindness,
he consented to permit her to pass
the toys through the window for his
inspection.
Toys Are Cast Out.
He took them, opened the package,
and then the toys flew violently out
OF the window, she said later.
Just about this time Policeman
Fordham came along, and Mrs. Ranre
left, saying she was going to tele-
phone. She had gone q considerable
distance when Fordham suspected
her purpose. He followed her: she
turned and saw him and began to
run. She was far ahead of him them
and in d mile and half chase he was
unable to catch her until after she
had thrown herself into Jamacia Bay
and was laundering about In the
water.
"It can't have my baby / want to
die," she kept saying over and over
when she was taken out the water.

The alimentary canal or digestive

stomach, thestomach' or gastrum, and
the intestines.
The intestines are q wriggly,

In typhoid fever the small intestine

the colon is commonly affected and

By the very nature OF the anatomi-

prone to be duiescent and stable. II,
In addition to this fxedity, there are
scars, adhesions. kinks or bacterial
inTasiops, they cause it to be as
stagnRnt az an obelisk.
While light fruits and vegetables
act as propellers to the small intes-
tines, the bulky ones and -copious
amounts OF water aid the colon in
flushing itself from above.
Specialized massage Of the abdomen
In circular motion like the hands

Belts, abdominal supports, hxed
compression with adhesive straps or
belladonna plasters, corsets made for
the purpose and similar mechanical
devices all contribute to the propul-
sive motion OF the colon.
OILS Often Helpful
Petroleum oil, charcoal. and large
quantities Of olive oil help TO lubri-
cate this Appian way and exodus Of

Occasionally II becomes necessary
to cause oil or water injections to
enter the colon from below. This has
been loosely, called by some '.colonie
lavage." internal baths" "colonic ac-
tivation," and host OF similar
phrases. While this may be neces-
sary at rare intervals in acute colonic
obstruction and chronic stasis OF the
colon, it is the better part Of yalor to
use vegetables. water, athletics and
exercises to induce movements of the
large intestine.

crate the state railways of Italy for
the next three years at rate of 20, 900
tons a month, and at a gross yield for

will be placed on ships chartered by

the fuel when it reaches Naples will
approximate SIS ton, freight and all

to be paid for in cash monthly in Den
yer at the rate of 81 a ton. In the
division of the business the Victor
