WILLIAM 5. HART
 x AT THE LYCEUM

Under ordinary conditions when a show of average caliber is presented nt a theater, the press agent is obliged first to state the attractions, and then go into a description of the excellence of the various parts in order that the readers may gain an idea of what is to be offered. The show that is to play at the, Lyceum theater the last halt of this week commencing tomor- row and extending through Friday and Saturday will need but one of these two processes. The names of the attractions must of course be stated and then 90 per cent. of the readers will have full conception of what the management has.
 Getting to the meat of the situ- ation, it is announced that William s. Hart, peer of western character de- lineators, will appear in his newest and best picture, Wolves of the Rail-" and for the vaudeville head liner there will be an offering de luxe, Hello, Japan" Hart needs no intro duction, for he has shown for years that he stands head and shoulders above every one of his competitors.

DICE" AT
 FOX'S THEATER NOW

Those who maintain that no play
 or book can be truly great unless it
 points an obvious moral will find con- tradiction in Loaded Dice" the Pathe Play in which Frank Keenan is star at F'ox's today and tomorrow. Loaded Dice" is a drama of remarkable punch, not a melodrama of the usual sort.
 Unusual a man is he, who in shap- ing his life adheres unswerVingly to the fifty-ffty chance that there is no God, to whom everything on earth is a gamble and life, death and imm or tality merely the biggest gambles of an who in his game with destiny. stakes everything on the theory that God is a superstition.
 Such a man is Richard Gordon, a promoter with nothing to promote except except his own interest," while the front he presents to the world is veneered with a mask of goodness underneath is the cheat, for this man plays with Loaded Dice because to win he says he must do so.
 There is but one thing that makes him ometimes--and only sometim es doubt his life's philosophy and that is Rose Ashton. But marriage? Why? What is the use? And so he says to her, i've will talk of that later dear" for he is a busy man and his bushes requires nerves of iron and muscles of steel. Interruptions, forceful, dominating, he at last real izes his ambitions and becomes the governor of his state. And then at the height of his power and appar- ently of unbeatable strength, there begin the strange series of events that prove to him that there is a God.
 Such a part as that taken by Mr Keenan needs master actor to make tt convincing and Mr. Keenan af- lords additional proof of his striking ability by giving 8 performance which has not been surpassed if ever equalled during his long and success fu1 career.
 The beginning of Franz Non Rim telen's career which ended so abrupt Iy a few weeks ago when he was sen tenced to the federal penitentiary at Atlanta, Ga, after being convicted of an attempt to place 8 bomb on a ship carrying supplies to the allies, Is vividly portrayed in the fourth cpl sode of "The Eagles Eye" Chief F1ynn's big Secret Service serial and expose of Germany's Spy plots which is also shown at Foxs. A Keystone comedy, ''Wronged by Mistake" and the Ford Weekly complete the bill.

There are some people who never in all their lives learn to measure time with any degree of accuracy. Age cannot wither nor experience stale their infinite elasticity of time I know that for two reasons. One is that I have had experience with this kind of people.
 Something Always Takes Longer Than
 She Expected.
 l have a friend with whom I have made perhaps a hundred appoint ments. l doubt if she has been prompt half q dozen times She is q busy person and I always urge her to set time late enough to allow for what she has to do. and she is always sure that she has given her. self plenty of leeway. And then she meets me breathless and overflowing with explanations of how this or that took longer than she expected.
 A young married friend of mine often plans to ride out from town with her husband after an afternoons shopping. The other morning they were making one of these appoint ments
 "Oh, I'll be through about five o'clock,'' he said cheerfu1ly.
 His wife laughed in that tender way of wives and husbands who know each others foibles, and love each other in spite of Cor is it because of them,
 He Always Thinks He Will LeavA
 at Five.
 My dear" she said to me, "he hasn't left his office at five o'clock nr.o in a long while it's half past five, Tut usually it's six. But I never fet asked him what time he was coming home that he didn't say, oh, about five o'clock"
 The other reason that I have for l knowing this type of optimist is that l am one of them.
 My fdvorite mism measurement is in l regard to the amount of work can 1 accomplish in a given time. When l 1 am going to town for the afternoon, 1 offer largely to do errands ior all 1 my relatives and neighbors. AWhole afternoon seems such an Infinite 1 amount of time. And then find that I do not get in until twofo clock, and that I ought to start hme be- [ fore five, and rediscover (ea,h time to my vast surprise) that 'n after noon is only three winged burs.
 Where Has This Afternoon Gone!
 Again, I will plan my york as follows: I will write such9nd such { a thing, answer that bunchhf letters, do some darning and go to ralk. And, To and behold, before I hve gotten 1 half way through that bu'ch of let ters, the shades of night are falling fast and I am saving, Where has this afternoon gone?"

The coal situation in the entire
country is very disquieting. and re-
ports from England of an additional
shortage do not help matters any.
France depends largely upon England
for coal and Italy has no coal at all,
and must be supplied. This condition,
with a shortage of labor in England,
where there is ample coal, becomes
serious. In the United States there is
an unlimited supply of fuel, but labor
is exceedingly short. and the produc-
ton has been hampercd more or less
by the interference of men who were
just guessing at what to do, but even
with that would have been in slightly
better condition if not for the delay
required to force the authorities in
control Of the labor situation TO change
their orders so that imported labor
could be used in districts other than
"lignite" in which it had been the GUS
tom to use Mexican labor. Because
Of the patriotic work Of a number of
interested men the coal producers of
New Mexico viii be able to greatly
increase their production this winter,
provided, Of course, the men can be Sc
cured and agitators do not find n way
to interfere.

WOMAN HAD

Tried Every Kind Of Treatment Here
and Abroad But Got No Relief

519 North Ochoa Street, Ell Paso,

native of England and was visiting
in A%berysia City, South Wales, when
war between England and Germany
was declared, and has many relatives
and friends on the battle front.
For almost forty years." continued
Mrs. Higgins, 81 have suffered with
indigestion and dyspepsia and during
the past three years, especially, | have
tried everything imaginable with no
results until | got Tanlac. | was adj
vised 70 have an operation, which !
did. for what was said to be gall stones
but continued to suffer. MY stomach
would cramp and bloat something aw.
full after eating and even liquid diet
did me the same way. My suffering
was awful and ! got SO | was actually
afraid to eat anything. A few years
ago my nerves seemed to give way
and | have been unable to get sufficient
sleep and rest.
while in Europe on a visit | tried
many English remedies but neither
the medicine or the trip helped me, /
was induced to try Tanlac and now
after taking four bottles | can truth

at least thirty years. My sleep is
sound and r%estful, and, oh, it is such
a relief to he able to eat what | want
without suffering those terrible pains
afterwards. | feel very grateful and
am only too glad to tell others about
the medicine that has done so much
for me-"
