gether for the first time In local stage
history and see each cause fairly, i'm

ness. Hitherto in plays dealing with
the strife of the North and the South,
there has been a prejudice more or les

with Puritan intolerance Of the plan

conceived and executed with q broad
er and more liberal spirit.
Winston Churchill. in writing THE
Crisis" took large-minded view of
the events leading up to and culmin-
atingi the bloody struggle of '61-65.
and wove his observations into a sto-
ry of broad sympathies and tremen-
dous dramatic power. In two char
acters, lifelong friends, and now men
in the iron age Of life, he embodied
the opposite spirits Of the conflict.
He brought these characters together
on the debatable ground of old st.
Louis. Around them he clustered
group Of other interesting personages.
and evolved out Of the conflict of views
and prejudices the most powerful nov
ell yet written on purely American
theme. His Northern hero and his
Southern heroine, intensely interest
ing in themselves, are yet mere pup
pets in the hands Of the giant forces
that tore nation in two, and that are
embodied in Colonel Carvel and Judge
Whipple. In making his photoplay.
William N. Selig followed exactly
the events of Mr.. Churchill's novel,
and, it is said. faithfully preserved
the spirit. A striking musical score,
based on romantic and patriotic airs
popular at the period, and interpret
ed by full symphony orchestra,
greatly intensifies the effect of the
shadow drama. Little less pathetic
than the story of Lincoln himself.
though keyed In minor and less
heroic strain. is the story of Sam D.
Crane, who plays the part of the great
emanclpatOr IN Inc CrlSlS.
Lincoln was stricken down before
he saw the results OF a great WORN
to which he had devoted 50 many bit
ter years of his life. Drane died be-
fore he realized the fame that is
bound to come to him in his extraor-
binary recreation of the greatest yet
simplest and most human figure in
American history. For number of
years. Drane had been playing the
ten-cent vaudeville circuits doing a
little comedy act which pleased the
patrons of the cheaper form of en-
tertainlnent, but which failed to at
tract the magnates who control the
higher circuis of vaudeville. Drane's
naturally strong resemblance to Lin
coin had led him to Introduce a short
! representation of the emancipation in
| his act.

No play ever written has caused so
much genuine. deep-rooted interest as
has THE Unborn" which is booked to
hll an engagement at the Arcade the
alter. beginning Thursday.
THE Unborn" is a photo play that
deals in a most original manner with
q much discussed subject-birth con-
troll. The Unborn" handles 1t in a
most unobjectionable way. The pic
ture has been produced to serve
purpose of deep moral worth. and as
such Is an excellent and vivid preach
ment, as we'll as an entertaining pro-
duction. 1t strikes at the very root
OF the evil, and lays bare every atom
OF truth In an earnest endeavor to
bring about the desired end. That it
does this is best attested by the fact
that wherever shown The Unborn"
has had the unstinted approval Of the
press. pulpit and public. Because of
the fact that THE Unborn" treats Of
q subject 50 delicate. the local board
OF consors have decreed that persons
under II shall not be permitted to
see the play. except when accompanied
by parents or guardians.

an unsafe place to keep even the
healthiest birds and an impossible
place to keep disease from, says Every
body's Poultry Magazine.
Dampness in the poultry house this
winter, as experienced in the litter and
the very air itself, will tend to cause
catarrh, which Is a nasal cold that very
often assumes a chronic condition and
hangs on for weeks, drawing upon
the vitality and strength of the birds
and finally stopping egg production al
together as well as putting the bird
into a condition in which 1t will easily
develop roup, chicken pOx and kindred
troubles. Dampness is a factor that
quickly depletes the strength and vi
tality of fowls, and it should be pre-
vented by giving attention to the floor
ing Of the house at once. If there is a
tendency for soil moisture to creep In
through the floor, correct this.
A cement floor, well Uttered is best,
while a wooden floor raised off the
| ground Is usually dry. A dirt floor
must be more carefully watched for
this point. Keep the air in the house
| dry by seeing that the ventilation In
the house is good. Ventilation carries
| off moisture laden air, which may ac-
cumulate at night when many fowls
give of moisture laden air from their
bodies. This matter OF ventilation is
badly In need of attention on many
plants. See to it that your house is cor
rectly ventilated before the winter sets
in. If there is not now plenty of open
front in the house rebuild the front of
the laying house. There should be lots
Of sunshine and fresh air In the winter
laying house If that house is to be a
healthful environment for the fowls.
OF greatest Importance is the quality
Of the feed used. No musty, moldy
grain should ever find its way into the
poultryman's feed bins, even though
the price Is low. It will throw the di-
| gestive system out of order, and this is
the key system Of the birds body, for
upon its proper functiOning depends
the activity of the egg producing Or
gan. Avoid any meat food that is
| semidecayed or moldy, for 1t will pol
son the birds and lower their ability
| to digest other food.
Every feed that is used in the winter
pens for any kind of birds should be
clean and free from mold or decay
The bird is a particular feeder and
must be treated as such. If wet mash
is used great care should be taken to
keep the troughs cleaned and free from
an accumulation of soured mash.
The water troughs are the source of
the spread Of very common contagious
diseases which show external symp-
toms about the head, such as roup and
canker. Every water pan should be
scalded at least once week and should
be cleaned every morning. Unclean
water invites disease. Potassium of
permanganate used in the drinking wa
ter once a week is a good preventive
measure against roup and such dis
eases. Use only enough to make the
water a bright cherry color. Make
fresh solution every day. Keep the
mash hoppers cleaned and free from
clogging, which is usually due to &C
emulation of moldy feed. Prevent d.
gestive diseases, and you will put your
birds into such shape that they will be
little troubled with other diseases.

Bad Habits.

Those who breakfast at eight o'clock
or later, lunch at twelve and have din
ncr at six are almost certain to be trou-
bled with indigestion, They do not al
low time for one meal to digest before
taking another. Not less than five hours
sh >uld elapse between meals. If you are
troubled with indigestion correct your
habits and take Chamberlain's Tablets,
and you may reasonably hope for quick
recovery. These tablets strengthen the
the stomach and enable it to perform its
functions naturally. Obtainable every
where.
