Nothing But The Truth" is an
nounced for presentation at the Paris
Grand Opera House next Thursday,
March %, under the immediate di-
rection of G. M. Anderson, (Bronco
Billy and L. Lawrence Weber. This
is the farce that attracted capacity
houses at the Longacre Theatre 400
times, and sent each one of those au-
diences away still laughing. The
play, which is by James Montgomery,
is based upon the unique idea of the
central figure of the story combining
his speech to nothing but the truth.
Just a little idea, but see this farce
and you will see how vast it was in
possibilities as a laugh maker when
carried out. Enough then of the
play. We are assured it is away and
beyond just amusing. OF the play
ers we are promised all that could be
desired in artistic ability, as each
one has been carefully selected with
ultimate object of making this the
aggregation of farceurs de luxe.

MRS. GRINNELL RESTORED TO
SOUND HEALTH AND MIND.

The many friends and acquaintan-
ceS of Mrs. j. w. Grinnell will be
pleased to learn of her complete re-
covery. Her husband wishes to make
the following statement to the gen.
eral public:
Those who knew my wife twenty
years ago will again find her to be
the same amiable and respecting per-
son that she was at that time, and
for the benefit of those who did not
know her until recently l shall state
her case. Eighteen years ago last
September she had severe attack OF
typhoid yever, which lasted for for
ty-eight days. Upon recovery from
this she partially regained her health
but began to gradually lose her mind.
The following April the best of med
zeal doctors available pronounced her
incurable and she was adjudged in
sane and sent to the Asylum at Lex
tington, KY, where she remained al
most continuously for sixteen years.
In the spring of 1915 she was brought
home, and as circumstances were
more favorable then for keeping her
at home than heretofore, we decided
to do so, though she required con-
slant attention. Believing there was
nothing that could be done to benefit
her condition, we did not consult the
doctors any more, until some one rec
commended we try Chiropractic. All
that was told me about the science
seemed so plausible that / immedi-
ately began to investigate further
and soon became. sufficiently inter-
ested that l decided to give it trial.
and on January %, 1918, l took my
wife to the local Chiropractor, DR.. S.
T. Mohney, whose Office is in the Ma
sonic Temple. Since that date she
has been taking the adjustment reg
ularly, and to-day l consider her as
well physically and mentally as she
ever was. We again welcome you all
to call at any time.
-. w. GRINNELL.'

Dean Mary E. Sweeney, of the Col
lege of Home Economic, Lexington,
and one of Mr.. Hoover's most effici-
ent assistant Food Administrators in
Kentucky, visited North MiddletOwn,
Paris and Millersburg last week, and
spoke to the housewives in the inter-
est of food conservation.
Her practical talks were principal
ly along the line Of wheat raising,
and the speaker showed conclusively
by argument and demonstration the
possibility and the necessity of con-
serving our supply of wheat -four by
combining it with substitutes in the
making of bread and cake, in order
that our soldiers and the Allies may
be fed.
Miss Sweeney made the startling
statement that notwithstanding the
earnest appeals which have been
been made to the housewives of
America, the consumption of wheat
up to the first of February had been
normal, the women not seeming to
realize the gravity of the situation
or not being patriotic enough to re-
spond to the urgent requests of the
Government in observing the rules of
the food administration.
THE women of America, not Mr..
Hoover" declared Miss Sweeney,
"are the real food directors, and in
the hands of the housekeepers of the
land rests the fate of democracy"
Only about twenty per cent. of the
women are observing the food regula
tions, and unless they are more
strictly followed, the people will be
put on bread rations, was the
of the speaker, and in three
days the prophecy was fulfilled, for
the National Food Administrator has
that no person is to be al
lowed more than ~ pounds of
wheat -four per week.
If the women had not failed in
their duty, this strict ruling would
not have been necessary.
Go back to the simple life, be con-
tented with simple food, simple pleas
ures, simple clothes. Work hard,
pray hard. play. hard. Work, eat,
recreate, sleep. Do it all courageous
ly. We have a victory to win

Fell Dead on Hot Stove.

MARLBORO, June "a Especially The sud-
den death of Mrs. Arthur Hodg kins OF this
place, under distressing circumstances,
shocked the community to-day. Mrs.
Hodgkins had been in poor health for
some time, but was able to attend to her
work about the house.
This forenoon, as her husband and his
father, Coleman Hodgkins, entered the
house, they found it full OF smoke, and
lying across the stove in the Kitchen they
found the body OF Mrs. Hodgkins,
terribly burned. Her two little girls,
one aged two and one-hali years and
the other one year and five months, were
crying with fear. Two older children,
boys of six and five years, were not in
the house at the time.
1t is believed that Mrs. Hodgkins, who
had been subject to heart attacks, was
stricken while at work about the stove,
and probably was dead when she fell.
Mrs. Hodgkins was twenty-five years Of
age. The husband, left with four small
children, has the sympathy OF all.

THE CIRCUS is COMING.
Robinson's Show Will Be in ELS
worth Next Wednesday.

The big Robinson show will be in Els
worth Wednesday, July 3, for afternoon
and evening performances.
If the original John Robinson could only
come back what an astounding transfor-
nation he would find has taken place, in
the wonderful circus bearing his name.
What would "Grandpa John" have
thought il some one had predicted at that
time, when the motor car and the sky
scraper were still below the horizon and
horses were hauling his circus from point
to point, that in little more than half a
century it would require four railroad
trains for its transportation.
Going even further, who can figure
what he would have thought If someone
had told him that in future years the
show he founded would list 1900 en-
ployes on its pay roll and require over 500
horses for its manipulation and presenta-
tion.
Many of the displays on this years
program with the Robinson circus are de-
clared to be revolutionary in style and
character, while the wand of modern in
ReHuiiy nas purhtsneo NY Ino 7tahuaAu u
features inseparable from tented amuse-
ments.
1t is asserted that nothing like the pro-
cessionsl pageant, "Golden Days and
Olden Ways" has ever before been wit
messed as prelude to the regulation per-
Torrance, equipped as it is with the
sumptuous paraphernslia, animal accom-
paniment snC gorgeous raiment, repre-
| sentative of the time, place and events il

This is the largest and most complete
circus ever east OF Bangor in Maine.

Falls Man Missing

Harris Durham of Ellsworth Falls has
been missing since last Thursday evening,
and fears are entertained that he has COM
mitted suicide. Dunham was under bonds
for the grand jury on charge OF assault
and battery on Frank E. Brown, as re-
ported in THE AMERICAN last week.
Browns condition was for s-ime critical,
and Dunha II Was apparently much wor-
ried at the possible consequences.
Thursday evening he left his home, say
ing he would be right back. When he did
not return, search was made, and has been
continued since without result. Opinion
seems divided as to whether he has COM
Enitted suicide or has run away to escape
the consequences Of the assault on Brown.
Brown is apparently recovering, the
most serious symptoms having disap-
peared in the past two days.
