REVELATIONS
 OF A WIFE
An Awakening to Nervous Fears and Journey to Marvin That
 Ended in Surprise.

I stumbled into Lillian's room early in the morning of the day We were to go to Marvin ia a nervous paroxysm of hysterical fear.
 It was an experience altogether new to me, and although I f1agellated my soul for my coWardice and weakness, yet l was unable 10 conquer it. l had lain awake for hours fighting the hor TOT of hysteria. and at last it had me by the throat, and I ran to Lillian as a ] frightened child would to it's mother.
 What is the matter, Madge ?" Lil- Han asked sleepily, then as she opened her eyes and saw my face she sprang up, and taking me in her strong arms drew me into the bed and cuddled me as she Woul have Marion.
 Intuitively she had known just what 1 needed, and I clung to her until my shaking hands had calmod themselves, and my labored breathing had quleted into naturainess.
 Then Lillian put me back on my pillow and raising on her elbow she looked at me keelly 'Y ou're deadly pale. Madge,' she said. You need something hot. Tll rout out Betty and have a cup of cof- fee up here in a jiffy."
 "Oh, no, no-please!" ] exclaimed, for I had been wretchedly ill all night and the very thought of food or drink turned me faint 1T couldn't possibly drink any coffee. Just let me lie still, please"
 Lillian gave me another long searching. appraising glance, and to my surprise did not override my re- fusal. It was like her to insist upon her friends taking her prescriptions. But ] felt too faint and weak to be surprised, or indeed. anything but grateful for the privilege of lying quiet.

SPARES HoHENzoLLERNs

Washington, Aug. 5.-All the stat
ues of the Hohenzollern family which
dot the streets and parks of Berlin
have, by government decree, been
saved from being melted for war ma
terials.
Official dispatches from Amsterdam
say the melting of statues through
out Germany is going on, with the
Communicating of doorknobs. bronze
hinges. copper roofs and other metals
having war utility, but that it is yer
boten" to take the statues of Freder-
ick II at the entrance to Unter den
Linden; the statue of William I oppo-
site the imperial palace, or any of
those representing members of the
Hohenzollern family.
One of the latest to be removed
from it's pedestal to be melted was
the Berolina, representing a woman
of giant proportions, the patroness of
the German capital. 1t was one of
the most popular works of art in
Germany.

LUDENDORF SAYS
SEndeavor to Stop Undertak-
ing When Stake Is Not
Worth Cost" His Plea

Amsterdam, Aug. 5.-'The enemy
evaded us on July 10 and we there
upon as early as the evening of the
18th instant, broke off operations.
1t is always our endeavor to stop an
undertaking as soon as the stake is
not worth the cost l consider II one
of my principal duties to spare the
blood and strength of our soldiers.
General Ludendorff, first quarter
master general of the German army,
made this statement to an assem-
blage of German newspaper CORES
pondents, who were received by
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg and
himself, according to dispatches re-
ceived here. Referring to General
Foch, General Ludendorff continu-
ed:
His plan was undoubtedly to cut
eff the entire arc of our front south
of the Aisne and break through on
the flank. But, with the proved lea
dcrship of our seventh and ninth ar
mics, that was quite impossible.
I'VE reckoned with an attack on
July IS and were prepared for II.
The enemy experienced very heavy
losses and the Americans and Afri-
can auxiliary troops, which we do
not underestimate. suffered severely.
BY the afternoon of July 19 we
already were fully masters of the
situation and shall remain so. We
left the abandoned ground to -he
enemy according to our regular plan.
Gain OF ground and 'Marne,' are
only catchwords without import
ance for the issue of the war. We
are now, as before confident"
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg
also dilated on how economically the
troops of Germany had been used.
He said
This circumstance and supply
considerations decided our measures
ard we transferred the fighting to
favorable ground where the troops
could easily be supplied.
We want peace, but it must be
peace with honor"
The correspondents declare that

health.

Senator E. e. Beidleman received a
hearty welcome from over $4,000

urged his hearers to help Pennsyl-
Vania stay as the Keystone of the ma
ton in the great war. Senator Beidle-
mans address and that of Auditor
General Snyder were also along pa
triotic lines.
Il found the Republicans all unit
ed" said Senator Sproul last even
ing, and all confident that there will
be big majority recorded for the
entire Republican ticket. A number
of Democrats told me they intended
to vote for me and thav they believe
our ticket will sweep the state by a
tremendous vote" Senator Beidle-
man said the same thing.
Senator Sproul is to-day in Ian

while he and those of his hearers
who have relatives in the service
wish them safely back home, yet he
for one would not willingly have his
son anywhere else in this, the ma

Senator Sprouts address was in nc

was calculated to bring to the minds
| of his hearers a realization of the big

tribute to the states resources.

The scenes of THE Kaiser's
Shadow" are located in a large
American city. and the story deals
with an American inventor, Clement
Boyd. who has invented a ray
rifle which has been accepted by
the ordnance department of the
United States government, and the
secret of which is desired by William
krelim, chief of the German spy sys-
tenn in that city. In the opening
scenes, Clement Boyd and Dorothy
Robinson are welded, and the nup-
tials are made an elaborate social
function. The plans. of the rifle, in
vented by Boyd, are not yet COM
pleted, and he decides to take them
away with him on his honeymoon.
When the couple escape their friends
who chase them to the street, Boyd
is for an instant separated from his
bride. Believing her to be in his
Limousine, he vaults into the vehicle
which is rapidly driven away.
Seeing that the car is on the wrong
road, Boyd picks up the speaking
tube to question the chauffeur, when
he feels the pressure of a revolver
against his cheek. He turns in as
tonishment to find the revolver in the
hands of his veiled bride, who whis-
pers to the chauffeur and tells him,
Its all right, Hugo. go ahead" The
machine stops, the chauffeur opens
the door and covers Boyd with a re-
volver The girl at his side removes
her vail and instead of his bride.
Boyd recognizes Paula Harris, his
wife's maid. Remarkable situations
follow in rapid succession.
This remarkable picture of love
and German espionage will be shown
at the Regent theater next Wednes-
day and Thursday, with unusual &C
cessories.

at the Victoria an opportunity
of seeing what is
proclaimed the greatest patriotic fea-
ture picture produced since the open

from the novelette, Three Things"
Aside from an all-star cast the U. S.
Marines have co-operated with the
producers. and are shown just as they
are fighting at present on the battle
front. To see this great film will
make you more proud that you are an
American and a Christian. The story
has to do with a young American
aristocrat, who has little faith in God,
humanity or the brotherhood of man.
He joins the Marines. and once "over
there" he finds that God is every
where. and that humanity and the
brotherhood of man are real. Thrill
ing trench warfare, bombarding of
Belgian towns, hand-to-hand conflicts.
outpost duty and artillery duels are
shown in startling realism. together
with the Staying of women and chill

day, tomorrow and Wednesday. No
