"Hearts of the WOrld''

David w. Griffith's latest and widely
acclaimed greatest filmed drama
Hearts of the World" will be seen
at the Auditorium, Albany, three days,
commencing October 18th.
This remarkable screen production,
which is described as a great love
story, has for its leading characters
the members of two American families
living in France before the great war;
The simple, peaceful life in beauti-
full French village is shown as a
background for the growing love be-
tween the son and daughter fthese
American families, who are neigh
boros. Their engagement is announc-
ed and they are. about to be married
when the war breaks out and The
Boy enlists with the french IroopS
modified from his village. From
this point the horrows and trilling
scenes of grim war form a gripping
brethless background for the subse-
ouent unfolding of the love drama
With the assistance of the English
and French governments and the War
Offices Mr.. Griffith utilizes tens OF
thousands of troops and numberless
batteries of artillery. His players
were involved in the actual World
War at the extreme front line trenches
being under constant bombardment OF
German guns.

ing and Dangerous Qualities.

Physicians are warning the public
against trifing with colds, influenza
and grippe. They say that a brisk
calomel purgative, preferably Gallo
tabs, the new and improved calomei
tablet, should be invariably taken at
bed time and repeated the second OF
third night, if necessary. In the
earliest stages. one Calotab is usually
sufficient unless the case is particu-
larly severe.
Physicians say that it is waste OF
time and Is dangerous to experiment
with other laxatives, as calomel IS
absolutely necessary sooner or later.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with a swallow of water-thats
all. No salts, nc nausea nor the
Slightest interference with diet, work
or pleasures. Next morning your
co,d has vanished and your whole
system is purified and refreshed.
Caiotabs are sold only in original
sealed packages Price thirty-hve
cents. Recommended and guaranteed
by druggists every where. Price re-
funded if you are not delighted.-adv.

Experience proves that the surest
and the quickest way to restore these
hard-of-hearing persons to their nor
nal place in any line of human en-
deavor is to aid them to learn to read
the lips as rapidly as possible. The
teaching of lip reading to the adult

promising beneficial results that just

who possess the faculty of imparting

way in which cultured hard of hear
ing women may be able to serve their
country to good purpose.

SEC. BAKER BACK
FROM WAR FRONT

WASHINGTON D. c., October IA
Secretary Baker returned from the
Western front today with the mes
sage that the Liberty Loan must go
over the top" whatever the result of
peace proposals.
This was the only comment the
secretary would make on the peace
overtures.
His own explanation of his trip
shows that it was taken to pave the
way for war on greater scale.
THE army has done and is doing
all that proud and grateful coun-
try could ask" Mr.. Baker said on
reaching Washington today, "and
the time has come for us to put in
every ounce of our strength to as
sure it's complete victory. The peo-
pie at home have a solemn RESPONSE
bility for their share in the final re-
suit.
THE Liberty Loan must go over
the top. Its success is both out mes
sage of gratitude to the boys who
are Drawing wars worst perils in de-
tense of our liberties, and message
O Germany that our people at home
are as resolute as our soldiers are
brave"

MUST GIVE UP SHIPS.
England and U. S. Wal Wait Until
Midnight for Answer

! : Washington, March 1s.-Holland
will be given all OF today to accept
the proposals made by the United
States and England or else nave SIX
;; hundred thousand tons Of her ship
ping requisitioned by the allies. Up to
| late hour last nighs no confirmation
lhad been received in Washington q
the story that Holland had already
agreed to the allied terms.
Acceptance OF the terms, it was
explained, in Dutch quarters mere,
can be carried out by the Council OF
Ministers, without reference to the
States General. Action by the coun-
Gil might have been taken yesterday.
The Datch Legation, The War Trade
Beard, the State Department and the
British Embassy, however, were all
without advice that the council had
met or acted.
Everything is in readiness, it is
learned, to take over thee ships, to-
night, probably at midnight. Many
of them can proceed to sea within
twenty-four hours as crews are avalla-
BILE and bunkers and cargoes ready.
The United States and England in
'sist that no protest or alternative
propostal from Holland at this time
will be received. Either Holland will
voluntarily agree to the terms or the
terms will be carried out without he"
agreement. All the food and supplies
which Holland would get were she to
agree to the arrangement viii be avail
able for her even if the allies have TO
seize the ships. In view Of this 1t is
generally expected mere that Holland
will protest and that the allies will en-
force their action.
If Germany still endeavors to eoercc
Holland, by refusing safe conduct for
her food ships, Germany's will be the
responsibility for starving her little
neighbor.

Miss Robbins studied in Italy and worked among Italian. mothers, so she. knows her: topic and language thoroughly. A Polish doctor will also be include in the series.

Mothers with weak or delicate babies are being invited to the room, where a trained nurse. or doctor is in. attend ance, and will be given. medical atten- tion and advice.
