GARRICK

Pauline Frederick, whose marvellous
dramatic gifts have been so lavishly
displayed in photoplay productions,
proves her right to be considered one
of the screens most versatile actresses
by her wonderful performance in the
role of Zelma Bryce in Sleeping Fires.
This powerful photoplay was written
for Miss Frederick, and gives her a
glorious opportunity for the display of
that histrionic genius for which she
has become internationally renowneN.
Unlike Sapho, in which Miss Frederick
created such sensation recently,
Sleeping Fires shows the star in the
role of a self-sacrificing and devoted
young mother who is forced to battle
for her own rights against thorough
ly selfish and disloyal husband. The
man has fallen in love with his own
secretary and is determined to obtain
a divorce from his wife in order to
marry the other woman. Using their
only son as a sort of weapon of Of
Tense, the man drives his wife almost
to q point of distraction. The conflict
and intrigue, with their final tremen-
dous situations, form the type of pow
erful drama in which Pauline Freder-
lex excels. Thomas Meighan and John
Sainpolis are among the talented play
ers in the cast.
Sleeping Fires will be shown at the
Garrick today and tomorrow.

THE STRAND

Benjamin Christie is author, pro-
Queer and star Of the Vitagraph Blue
Ribbon feature, Blind Justice, which
has created SO much favorable COM
ment and which is the attraction at
the Strand theatre today.
From the excellence of the story,
production and acting one might i'm
agine that an artist from each of
these lines of endeavor had given his
brains to the perfection of his par
ticular work and in this way made
the production all that it has proven
itself to be.
However, Mr.. Christie is entirely
responsible for the picture in every
way and has carried 1t past the line
of critics and to the public with flying
colors.
The story itself. containing many
drastic scenes and directed with an
artists touch, forms a fitting back
ground for the masterful character
ization of Mr.. Christie in very difi-
cult role.

Names Gum Industry,

Gathering spruce gum has long since
become one CT the steady minor indus
tries of Maine, where every year about
$4,000 tons of crude gum, valued at a
third of million dollars, are harvested
The crude article is formed as the re-
suit of injury TO red and black spruce
trees. Hed-ehogs feed upon the inner
bark of trees, and the injuries they
cause, known as hog cuts" are fruit
full sources of gum. Lightning scars,
frost cracks. old blaZes and the abra-
sions caused by falling trees and even
sap sucker drills are other occasions
Cor gum formation. Around the edges
OF such wounds little nodules appear
and gradually develop into Jumps or
teats. a wide scar heals slowly and
may produce gum around the entire
wounded area, while a narrow seam
closes so quickly that only single row
of these nuggets is possible.-Argo-

What the Soldiers Eat.

The food of soldiers in the field va.
ries according to their nationalities.
The principal meal of the Russian SOL
der consists of stchee, something be-
tween cruel and soup, the chief in
gradients of which are cabbage, pota-
toes, oatmeal and fat meat, preferably
pork. These are boiled together, with
salt and other seasoning, the result be-
ing a thick, nourishing and by no
means unpalatable dish
The Italian soldiers, who are splen-
did marchers, live largely On farina-
ceous diet-macaroni, spaghetti and so
on. They are also very partial to fruit,
which is issued. together with wine
and cigars, as part of their rations
whenever possible
No German soldier considers his dali
~ menu complete without a sausage of
some kind or other. and the stronger
its flavor the better. A nutritious pea
soup is also a staple of the army ration.
The mainstay of the French soldier
consists of bis beloved 'soup," as he
calls it. It is really thick, nourish-
ing stew, made OF meat, potatoes and
various other vegetables.

GUS, but the things he loves above all

TRANSFORMER Mine.

An old abandoned mine near Saal-
field, in the Thuringian forest, which
in the time Of Luther was worked for
silver, copper, alum and vitriol, has
been discovered hy Berlin geologis,
to have developed into one of the mos!
beautiful caverns. In the course Of
centuries the water percolating through
the minerals has built up throughout
the mine a wonderful labyrinth of stall
actites and stalagmites, thrown to
gether with a profusion and brilliance
of color which is said to be without
parallel. Deep green's, vivid blues, the
purest white, yellows Of all shades-in
fact, the entire scale of color is repro
duced over ard over again, and yet
the colors melt into each other so
gently that nowhere is the impression
of disagreeable contrast produced.
