CANDLES SHOULD NOT BE USED AS
 ORNAMENTS

One of the absurd American cus- toms at which our English cousins must smile when they visit our pre- tentious American houses are candles that are never burned-and never in- tended to be burned. In England and on the continent candle is a candle-not an ornament. It has a very decided use-just as frying pan has, or a footstool, Or any other in- conspicuous utilitarian article in the house. Nobody in England. makes a fuss about candles-except perhaps the American, who finds them charged on his bill for lodgings.
 In American, however, the candle instead of being a household drudge, is elevated to position of household god it is one of the Lares of Pe- mates Instead of buying her can dies by the pound, or even by. the dozen, the American housewife se- lects them carefully-llike vases or c-a-brac-considerin each in its relation to the room it is to adorn.
 In the living room will be maho- gany candlesticks, with tall,, square sided gold-colored candles; in the dining room silver candlesticks will hold coloniaI-looking white wax tap CTS; in the hall must stand massive wrought-iron tripod, with a two-foot candle, supposed to represent an an- cient rush light. Each bedroom has it's appropriate candlestick; with smart, colored candle matching the
 
 One finds the bedtime candle in- variably beside the bed on a little candlestand-but only in rare in- stances has ones hostess remember ed to place matches beside it! Of course, there is an electric bulb near the bed a candle could not possibly be necessary unless the electric light were shut off at the powerhouse-but just for the sake of general fitness of things, one would like to see matches beside that ornamental can- dle.
 The latest idea, be it added, in household candles is the hand-paint- ed candle, a very exclusive taper, you may believe, decorated in flower tints.

Human Clay" the great heart-in- terest drama of redemption, made a splashing hit at Polls last night. Diff film, it's very inspiration, theme and pleasurable qualities overcome the re- s:stance of sameness that recently has shown in pictures. It scored heavily throughout six reels of exceptionally taken film.

PLAZA

Mime. Petrova's first production from her own studios, "The Daughter of Destiny" proved a drawing card of no small magnetism Tor the Plaza management yesterday. Each of the three performances was crowded with admirers of the celebrated screen parsonage and intermittent outbursts of applause were frequent.
 Mime. Petrova, or Olga Petrova, as many of the fans wish to remem- Der her by, has a splendid role in this wonderful picture and she has really outdone herself in making her first accomplishment one to be re- membered and spokn of for months to come.

HOME MADELAMP OF ANCIENT
 DESIGN

The charm of candle light has long been recognized, but the ancient oil lamp, dating from the days of Rome's sovereignty, is even more picturesque than candlesticks. Some of these lamps are of brass, others are of sil- yer or are nickel plated, thel alter being limitations of the old lamps. A popular form is the pitcher-like shape, used by the Greeks; later one is the tall slender standard on which an oil bowl. with three or four spouts is fastened. This is usually equipped with pincers, and a lamp of this type is nearly always made of brass. While originals are extremely diff cule to obtain one sometimes finds them in old curiosity shops or brass shops, and the design is becoming more common nowadays, since it is being much copied.
 While the decorative value of such lamps is appreciated by many people, comparatively few realize that a really beautiful light is given by them. Ordinary wicks can be burn ed tn them the narrowest width being the proper one to use, and either cot ton seed or olive oil will burn well. When the wicks burn low, there will be an unpleasant odor, unless d per fumed oil is combined with the cotton | seed oil, a few drops being enough | to give a most pleasant scent.
 A certain woman, whose daughter i longed for a floor lamp for her dainty i x1,Ioj hoI-nnT1o rnaonf11y made one which justified an old adage, to the effect that some women can make the whistles out of pigs tails and make the whistles blow" Feeling that it was advisable to buy a floor lamp for the room in ques- l tion, yet longing to see the dainty | bedroom complete, she rummaged about in a secondhand furniture store until she found a simple hat rack, one with a slender, rather graceful center rod, and but few cross bars on which hats were sup i posed to be hung. All of these cross bars but one were sawed off, and the whole rack then scrubbed. sand papered and painted black. Touches | of dull blue were added, and an | enamel paint used on the black DOT tions, to give an appearance similar
 to that of lacquered furniture. From
 the two ends of the cross bar were
 hung silk Chinese lanterns, the long
 straight edged ones; the cords for the electric lights were wound with
 black ribbon, and brought conspicu-
 lously up the back of the lamp, and
 being fastened at the top with large
 painted carpet tacks to hold them ir
 place. These cords hung over leach
 cross bar until the lantern, the bulbs
 being hung just below the lanterns
 edges and a most attractive an6
 comparatively inexpensive floor lamI
 was the result, it's coloring adding 2 decidedly effective touch to the bed room's blue and white.

EMPIRE

As Jules Lemaire, a laughing, sing ing, high-spirited and whole-souled trapper from the great forests of the Canadian wilds, George Beban in his latest Paramount picture, Jules of the Strong Heart" has found a role that is absolutely suited to his talents and one in which he finds opportun- ity for the exercise of all his facul- ties of character delineation.
 That combination of primitive kind Illness, robust spirits, and rollicking disposition, coupled with a gusty tenn per and bravery of the highest order makes up a character of the sort that few besides MT. Beban can adequately portray and it is his ability in this re- spect that has made him so wonder fully successful in his Paramount photoplays.
 Jules of the Strongheart" was a powerful and vital short story which appeared in Golfers, and from it Frank x. Finnegan and Harvey F. Thew have written scenario that is said to be virile, thrilling, full of the milk of human kindness, replete with romance and the odor of the pine forests.
 The story is one of hearted courage and depicts the struggle of Jules to uphold the honor of his sweetheart's father and to save his friends baby from privation. Mis- judged and even tortured on these counts Jules finally makes good.
 This picture, which was filmed largely at Hoquiam, Washington. The star is supported by a powerful cast and the direction of Donald Crisp as- sures technical perfection down to the last detail Jules of the Strong Heart" is appearing at the Empire theatre, today and tomorrow.

The pinnacle of success in American humor is reached in that wholesome comedy, Captain Kidd, Jr.,' which comes to the Lyric theatre as the spe- cial engagement for next week.
