Doesn't detract from the quality Of
the entertainment of which he is the

Furs and Frills" has all the ele-

There are many wives and

send pictures of the children
or themselves to "their men"

camera for making them.
The soldiers appreciate

Why don't the amateur
photographers of the city
offer their services to the
folks in their neighborhood-

be doing a great war good

tortionzfe demands OF the village
Shylock, is forced to sell herself to
the highest bidder at public auction,
for q period of I'VE years, to prevent
the foreclosure OF q mortgage on the
farm she Is striving to save for a
younger brother Stephen Jarvis, the
richest and meanest man in the town
of Barford, secures the services Of
the girl By hiring an unknown specu-
lator to outbid David Whitcomb, her
former sweetheart lately returned
from the West. In due time the
girls strength OF character impresses
itself upon the consciousness OF the
Croesus, and simultaneously it is
brought home to Barbara through
the perhdy of Whitcomb, that Jarvis
is not the least desirable man in the
world. The final adjustment OF Gif-
fefences may possibly be perceived.
