LES MISERABLES'
 THE FILM SUPREME

He who attempts to describe Les Niserables" is doomed to failure be- fore he begins. For if ever a pro- ductlon of any nature, whether dra. matic, artistic or literary could be said to outstrip the powers of de- scription, that piece of work is the William Fox version of Victor Hugo S immortal masterpiece. And as for William Farnum-Well, he has simply placed himself upon the highest pin nacle of achievement, from which he can look down upon every other screen actor who has ever posed be- fore a camera. His Jean Naljean is living, breathing reality, and will live in the minds of those who see it long after the details of the tale are forgotten. We have seen Farnum as Sam Houston in The Conqueror," with his jOvial gOod-nature and loftv aims; we have seen him in "When a Man Sees Red," as the rough and ready seaman whose singIeness of purpose in averaging the death of his sister was an overwhelming, ever present impulse. And each time we have been lavish in our praise for this king among men. But when we have seen his Jean Vatican and his Father Madeline, we realize that we never really knew F'arnum-we only thought we did. There is a certain mature excellence to his work that was lacking in his previous efforts--a something that brands him as an artist, and not merely an actor. In the early part of the picture, where he is pictured first as the powerful peasant, and then as the ugly, uncon- trollable convict, he is positively re-
 pulsivc. And when, after having
 been befriended by the bishop, he at temptS to bite the hand that fed him,

be presented today, being composed of the same offerings that proved so popular Thursday and Friday, upheld the record set by acts of the past month, and in order that the big Sat urday crowds may be accommod odated, a continuous performance will be given.
 Olive Thomas most recent picture, "Indiscreet Corinne' in it's two days showing has earned it's way into the favor of everyone who has seen it. Situations that cannot fail but prove interesting are welded together with some excellent acting and presented by a well balanced company.
 In addition to the feature picture three vaudeville acts of headline uual- ity are provided. Burns & Jose, a young man and a young woman, pre- sent as neat dancing act as could be asked for. Their interpretations of some of the latest dances bring their offering up to the top of the list, while Maude Muller with several songs in which she displays a won voice runs a close second. The Four Sickers," presenting 8 rube act score well, three of the company showing unusual abilities respectively as a comedian and a comedienne.
 They have some clever rube con- edy stuff, harmony when they want to draw on the supply, and a general slapstick line that goes across fine.
 On Sunday evening the picture bill will be headed by Mutual five part feature and a list of comedies, news Weeklies, and other pictures.
 Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday means the commencement of another new bill, with Mabel Normand in "Dodging a Million the headliner. Miss Normand is no stranger no mat ter where her pictures are shown, for her long experience has made her a finished actress.
 The vaudeville program will con- sist of Jack Wentworth and 'Teddy'' his trained dog, Walters and the Cliff Sisters in a novelty offering with a little dancing, a little singing, and some verbal work that has brought the act rapidly to the fore, and the Bull Bear Indians, with Miss Marie Russell.

How Harry Underwood Reacted to
 the Test Madge Watched.

The spring sunshine streamed into the windows of the Fleur de Lis, brightening everything that it touched, softening the tense, worried faces of the workaday people who were lunching there in a brief respite from their daily grind of duties. It seemed to finger longest over the gray head of the woman manager, who, according to her daily custom. had just given the signal to her pianist to play The Star Spangled Banner"
 The fancy came to me that she was typical of aroused American woman hood as she stood there looking over her crowded tea room, waiting to see if there were any among her patrons who would refuse to respond to the appeal of the national anthem.
 As the first strains of the music foated from the piano l rose from my seat. as did all of the other regular patrons of the tea room who were used to the daily practice. The new colners taken by surprise, were @ trif1e slower in getting to their feet, but no one Jagged perceptibly behind. My breath came fast and irregu}axly as I got up from my chair. My eyes were fixed upon Harry Underwood opposite me, for upon his behavior under this ordeal depended the solu- ton of my most perplexing problem how to deal with him. Was he the ] secret, treacherous enemy to his 1 country that his association with | Grace Draper signified, or were there
 stirrings of latent manhood within l him?
 Fingers that CIenched. / Of course, I knew that he wouldn t
 refuse to rise-that would be a dan gerous betrayal of sentiment on his part. But I was sure that the sound
 of the national anthem would be a
 searching test of the real soul of the ! man.
 And my munitions were not at fault. l Never have I seen such humiliation 1 and anguish in any ones eyes as were held in the black depths of Harry 1 Underwood S when the first notes of
 the anthem responded to the fingers
 of the pianist.
 l He started, turned his head slightly as if to discover the source of the sound then his years of worldly
 training came to his aid, and a mask
 of imperturbability spread over his face. He was but a second behind me he carefully avoided my eyes as he did so. One glimpse of the tortured humiliation that was his he had given

HARLAN A HIT
 ON KEENEYS SCREEN

Kenneth Harlan, formerly leading man with the Lyceum players, is shown for the last time tonight at Keeney's in his newest Bluebird pro- duction, '"The Wife He Bought" 4. story of a man who married for re-. venge He is ably supported by dainty Carmel Myers. Mack Swain, the comedian, is seen in Ambrose of the Lion Heart" an L. KO comedy that will make you laugh. The Cur. rent Events is also shown with news, of national interest. The Eight Neapolitans, vaudeville's classiest musical act closes a successful week tonight They have been a decided hit all week in one of the best musi" cal acts seen here in some time Sun" day night brings Broadway's star comedian, Taylor Holmes in his new laughing hit, '"Fwo-Bit Seats" 4, romance that started by a young; couple that bought gallery seats. Sev. eral other short dramas and a rip- roaring comedy is included on the program.

he makes himself thoroughly despc- able, both by reason of his filthy and unkempt appearance, and because of his mean, treacherous little manner isms. But when, little later, we meet him again as the worthy and beloved mayor of Malencc, the met amorphosis through which he has passed is startling even to those who knew it was coming The hateful galley-slaVe has changed to the kind ly, benevolent millionaire in a most astonishing manner. And it is here that Mir. Farnum shows his real sr- tistry. His portrayal of the char itable dignitary who still retains just a suggestion of his prison limp is perfection itself. But for all of his splendid work, Farnum is not tn whole picture. Jewel Carmen comes in for her share of praise in her work as Cosette, tho nameless Waif whom Valjean adopts in childhood, Sonia Markova is convincing as Fantine, and Hardee Kirkland as Javert, tho prosecuting policeman, handles his part splendidly. Frank Lloyd, who directed the picture, has improved wonderfully since he made ''The Tale of Two Cities" The atmosphere which he secured, and his accuracy of detail makes him a dangerous ri- val of Raoul Walsh's. Particular mention should be made of the grip ping intensity of the courtroom scene, wherein Valjean reveals his own identity to save the life of stranger; of the realism Of the street battles and the scenes in the sew CTS of Paris, through which Vatican carries the wounded Marius back to the side of Cosette. Les Misera bles'' will be the feature attra ction at F'ox's until Tuesday night For today there will be shown several Introductory pictures including new Sunshine comedy entitled Are Married Police- men Safe?'

I wonder if it is not true that we often see people not as they are, but as they used to be when we first knew them, when they first imprint- ed themselves upon our consciouS- ness.
 Someone was telling me about q young-to -Iniddle-aged married Wom- an who Gin a perfectly permissible way) is so attractive to men that they are always tl,roD2ing her house and doing all sorts of kind things for her whole family.
 It seemed incomprehenslble to me. "Why on earth is it?' l asked.
 "Why she's so bright and then shess so pretty" said my informant.
 ''Pretty!'' I echoed in surprise, why she is so fat and red and blow sy''
 She Secs Her As She Was When She
 First Knew Her.
 My informant laughed. Yes, l suppose she does look that way to VOL" she said, "but I guess I zee her as she was when I first knew her ten years ago. She wasn't fat then, just aplenty plump and sine had lovely skin. She's changed so slowly that NOil | -Cchliy iiosirS 't'
 It's often so, isn't it?
 If you lose sight of an old acquain- tance and do not see hir: again for q long tio7e. you may see him in a new light. But if you see him day in day ont. the little changes come so grad ually that you do not notice them and still sec the face of your earlier inn pressions.
 Fathers and Mothers Remain of a
 Stationary Age.
 If vou are close to your mother and father, for instance, you do not real ize that they are growing older. You know there are a few more grey hairs. bat on the whole they are stat ic personalities to you. And the per haps some of your mothers or fath- CTS old friends come to see them, people of their own age, and genera ton; you see that they are old and it is brought homo to you that your mother and father nave changed, too Or more likely. the married brother CT sister comes 1,Cme on a visit ana forcibly opens your eyes for you
 I do not think a husband and "lle (who still loves) ever sees ms iila'o quite as old as ke or she LOOKS to other people.
 No Notter Knows Her Son Is Osd.
 And am sure no mother ever real izes that her son has become a grey haired man.

REVELATIONS OF A WIFE
By ADELB GARRISON

me when he first heard the music. He seemed determined that I should read nothing more in his eyes.
 But the color of his face was some thing that he couldn't control, and as the notes of the music rippled on his pallor increased until there wasn't a Vestige of color left. And looking closely at him-something which his averted eyes gave the opportunity of doing-I saw that while his face and lips were immovable as granite. the fingers of the hand nearest the wall, and therefore hidden from the sight of every one but me, were clenched into the palm.
 He managed to recover himself, however, before the pianist finished playing, and with a. magnificent as- sumption of nonchalance turned to- ward the front of the room where the gray-haired manager stood, a, dom- inant figure, every line of her afiame with patriotic fervor.
 What Madge Guessed.
 Some patriotic old girl, that" he said as the music stopped and we all resumed our seats. What would she do, may I ask, if anybody should feel l disinclined to arise-whip out an l duIoudIiC duu oEtfA Sul
 His tone was f1ippant, almost to the point of offensiveness. If I hadn't seen his face, unobserved by him, | during the preceding minutes, l should have judged him harshly, be- lieved the worst of my suspicious con- ! corning him. But the memofy of his eyes, his pallor, made me certain that | he was masking his emotion, as was always his wont, by badinage. "Oh. nothing so drastic,'' I replied, smiling faintly. It was no part of my i plan that he should suspect I dreamed him other than a patriot. But no per here again"
 He turned around in his seat and looked the manager over with careful scrutiny.
 1 "WelT, you've got to slip it to her" he said, when he turned toward me again. She's sincere in her patriot ism, it costs her something. A lot of these blatherskites that are running around waving flags are making all the money they can out of it. I don't mind them doing one thing or the other, profting by the war or do- ing the patriotic hurrahing. It's the combination that gets my goat"
 His face was flushed his eyes un- naturally bright, his words vehement. I realized that there was some strong emotion beneath his words, guessed that he was trying to justify his own conduct by talking of the shortcom- ings of other men.

HOUSEHOLD NOTES

A "patriot roast is made with a cup of cold meat, a, small onion and a cooked green pepper all put through the meat chopper. Add a cup of cooked oatmeal, press into greased mold and bake till brown.
 No part of the cabbage or lettuce should be wasted. If you are prepar- ing cabbage for salad or coleslaw save the loose, outside leaves to boil. The same is true of lettuce, the out side leaves make good greens when boiled.
 To mako paste that will keep tako 1 oz. alum, 1 quart hot water, four, a little powdered resin, two cloves. Dissolve 1 az. alum in Q quart Of hot water When cold add enough four 10 make it the consistency of cream. Boil stirring all the time. Add cloves and resin. This paste will keep sev- eral months.
 When the snow is on the ground have the rugs taken out, put on the snow, then sprinkle snow over the rug and sweep vigorously. The snow will gather the dirt from the surface of the rug and leave it bright and clean.
 If a stove is not equipped with a broiler, try heating a pan piping hot Put the steak into this without greas ing and turn as soon as it is scared at the bottom. Keep turning till the meat is done.
 Concentrated amm onia-one part ammonia, to six parts Water-can be used to remove varnisll. MoiSten a small portion of the vanished wood, scrub with a stiff brush and the var nish can be easily scraped off. When making jelly before turn ing it out of the molds into a saucer, wipe the latter with a damp cloth This will be found very good, as the jelly will slip over the center of the dish and not stick to one side of it as it does when no dampening is done.
 Washing in hard water and neglecting to thoroughly dry the hands after washing are frequent causes of chaps and chilblains on the hands. The most effective water-softener in winter, to my mind, is oatmeal, though a little trouble is entailed in prepar- ing it for use.
