ADJUSTMENTS.
CANNON FIRE ONLY MUSIC.
No Violin to Play Sobby Strains While
Griffith Stars Enact Big Scenes for
Hearts of the World.

How often have We heard of emo
tional actresses in motion pictures who
insist they cannot properly "cmotc'
unless there is violin at hand to play
sobly music. And we recall one very
famous screen star who demands that
an entire orchestra be furnished i'm or
der that her temperament be escorted
to the ethereal heights of frenzy.
Now comes Dorothy Gish, who with
her sister, Lillian, appears prominently
in the cast of Hearts of the World,
which will be seen at the Auditorium
for three days, beginning Monday,
twice daily at 2.l5 and D. m, and
knocks the emotional music theory into
a cooked hat. Little Dorothy claims
that it would be very embarrassing to
ID. W. Griffith, the producer, if she or
her sister insisted upon doing all their
future emotional scenes TO the same
music that accompanied the taking of
their latest picture, Hearts of the
World.
Says Dorothy: "It would cost Mr..
Griffith the mere matter of a million
dollars or more to provide the 'inciden-
tai sounds. The obligate for our emo
hundred British cannon standing al
most wheel TO wheel and pounding
shrapnel and explosive shells into the
trenches of the Boehe. Fhe under
note Of the orchestra that sup
piled the music for the taking of our
screen play was supplied by the rattle
and crash of machine guns in action.
The only whines and whimpers that in
spired us in our work for Hearts of
the World were the Hun shells singing
overhead as they hunted their victims
the sputter of the motor ambulanees
hurrying TO the rear with the wounded;
the distant chutter-ehutter Of the air
| planes ccaselessly cncirclng the
trenches overhead.
Never have actresses registered the
emotions of mimic play under such
extraordinary circumstances. And new
er have they exploded the theory OF
necessary emotional music as a nee
essity than in the present instance

ROYAL Filler HERE.
Comes to Call On New Britain Friends
For Short Time.

Clad in the uniform of a member
of the Royal Flying Corps an aviator,
known in the British army as King
SoP', arrived here this afternoon for a
visit with friends. Stunning publicity
he hid behind his flying name. He
said that he and his grandsires are
Am ericans and he is determined to
fly under the Stars and Stripes in the
future. His home is in Worcester.
He claims that he made an aerial
trip from Canada to Springfield. 1t
was his intention, he said, to call on
friends in Hartford, New Britain and
New Haven, making the journey by
air and he would have done SO but
for the accident that necessitated his
landing in Springfield.

fall from a plane while in France

"I know I ought to take treatment;
I have been running down for the
last wear or two. / am all tagged out,
have no ambition, worry from morn
ing till night, don't care whether l
am dead or alive, have lost weight and
cannot do the same work l used to
do some years ago. IL L were as
strong as I was,- could earn good
Il good specialist, but / cannot afford
money. I know L ought to treat with
to pay for the treatment"
You are paying for it NOW, my
friend, and dearly; yet you do not
get it.
Let me tell you why.
Your health is your capital; your
working capacity is the interest you
are drawing.
A good manager never spends more
than his interest.
Should he begin to draw on the
capital his interest would, Of course,
decrease. -s.. -..
And what are you doing?
You allow your health to run down
more and more; therefore, you cam
not work and earn what you used to-.
DO you see the point? You are draw
ing on your capital-which is your
healthy allowing it to run down,
and so the interest (your working
capacity is steadily growing smaller.
You used to make good money;
now YOU earn about half OF what you
used to get. ..'.-
To make two, three or four dollars
was play to you; aad you had all
your heart and soul in your work.
These happy days are gone.
You now barely make a living and
find it almost beyond your strength.
And you shudder at the thought of
what will happen when the final
breakdown comes.
Figure out in dollars and cents
what you have lost already and you
will be amazed at the amount; and
what you are gong to lose is beyond
estimation.
The dollar you MIGHT earn, but
don't, is an actual expense to you.
You spend it, And what do you get
for it. Worry, anxiety, dependency,
want and deprivation for your family.
The dollar you take out of your
pocket and spend for treatment with
an experienced specialist is not an
expense. 1t is an investment. And in
return you get increased working
ability, higher wages, health and hap
piness at home.
Which will you choose?
Can you hesitate?

Mr.. Hughes Summoned.

"of his wishes for q conference, with
a view to the making of definite and

it means that Mr.. Hughes will be
found ready to take a leading part
in the inquiry and that he won't toll

To take the investigation of air
plane construction out of politics,
President Wilson could have done no
more brilliant thing than to nom
mate Charles Evans Hughes for that
duty. Justice Hughes is, after all,
the leader Of the republican party up
to the time of the next presidential
nomination of that party. Those re-
publicans who set party above pa
triotism are playing politics; but Mr..
Wilson must have known that Mr..
Hughes would accept his consumption
like a soldier, and serve if necessary
for the duration of the war.
Airplanes are now out of politics,
and Mr.. Justice Hughes can be de-
pended upon to draw results from an
inquiry which will be standard for
future inquisitions of the sort.

Nothing could have been wiser in
obtaining assistance for the attorney
general than the selection of Judge
Hughes, on account of the familiar
fact that while he is an ardent sup
porter of the government In doing it's
utmost in the war operations in
which it's energies are enlisted, he
conspicuously represented the oppo-

the candidate for president against
