among the people and courtailment t

predicted today in an address before
the Mississippi Valley Waterworks
convention.
The output OF coal mines this season
Senator Reed said, has been actually
less than for the corresponding season
OF 1917" and transportation facilities,
while improved, cannot cope with the
situation until the government employs
every possible agency within its power." "
He urged that the nations waterways
be utilized to the fullest extent to aid
the railroads in solving the problem.
Should Use Waterways.
1T is the duty OF the government to
do two things and to them at one and
the same time. should increase the
efficiency of the railroads by every
means in its power and at the same
time place boats and barges upon the

This can be done practically without
interference with the production Of rail

ORPHEO THEATRE.

The showing of Stranded in Ar cady," starring Mrs. Vernon Castle in the big new Pathe Plays, which mark a new era in feature pictures, is an event at the Orpheo theatre today and tomorrow.
 The picture has every element of popular appeal. It is fast moving story of the great outdoors dealing with the adventures of a young couple in the north woods. It contains many thrilling stunts, including jump from a high cliff into the river below and the rescue of the hero by the heroine in the perilous waters of rockinfested rapids.
 In selecting the story for Mrs. Cas- ties first photoplay. they chose the popular novel, "Stranded in Already" <" by Francis Lynde. who is one of the most popular American writers of this kind Of fiction.
 The story has 9 very strong love interest and the plot deals with the scheme of an adventurer to maroon 8 young man and a poUng girl. who are strangers, in the wilds together, in the hope that they will forfeit an inherit ance of which neither is aware. A particularly interesting feature of this picture is the fact that Mrs. Castles role is that of young girl who teach es society how to dance, to this eX- tent paralleling the story of her own life. The picture works up to a thrill ing climax, when the young couple re- alize that they must get to Montreal before noon on certain day or sae a large inheritance go to the grasping secretary of the man who left it to them.
 Elliott Dexter is Donald Prime. a novelist whose book "A Woman's Way" has just appeared and made a bi ghit. In reality he knows very little about women. so of course he thinks he knows everything there is to know about them, and has decided they arc not of much use. Imagine the situation when he is lost in the wild's with beautiful and unknown young lady! He remembers a friends re- mark that he should be marooned somewhere with "irl, and thus find out how little he knows about the in ferior(?) sex. He jumps to the con- c1usion that this friends is respon- sible for his plight.
 However. events happen so rapidly and the desperate character of his mysterious opponent is so evident he sets the thought aside and when the friends arrives he has no diff culty in persuading him and the girl that unless they move quickly they will be vctiims of a very clever frame up.
 The race for fortune occupies the rest of the story and by this time yo,

Alkali in Soap
 Bad For the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully, if you want to keep your hair looking its best. Most soaps and prepared sha,n- poos contain too much alkal. This dries the scalp. makes the hair brittle, and ruins 1t.
 The best thing for steady use is just ordinary mulsitled cocoanut oil (which is pure and ereaseless), and is better than the most expensive soap or any thing else you can use
 One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy father, which rinses out easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandruf and excessive oil The hair dries quickly and evenly, and 1t leaves the scalp soft, and the hair fire and silky, ht.gtt lustrots, fluffy and easy to manage.
 You can get :1il'siGed cocoanut oil at any pharnlacy, ifs very cheap, and few ounces will sup1ly every member of the &amily for mculhs.

THE BEST THEATRE.

The third Tnce- Aircraft production, starring Wm s. Hart, presents the noted actor in new role, at the Best Theatre today and tomorrow. The title of the photoplay is Evolves of the Rail-" and is melodrama of the west with a wealth of action and a romantic love story.
 Hart has the role of Buck" And rade, the leader of a gang of outlaws who terrorize the country through which the Atlantic and Pacific rail road runs Hart's mother, on her dy- ing bed, prays for her son to reform. He assures her that he has done his last "job" and from that moment will go straight And then he starts in to live new sort of life. commencing with the defeat of his own gang of outlaws as they try to hold-up the train on which are "Buck" and a de- teetive sent from eastern offices of the railroad, a famous tracker of criminals known as "The Blood hound" This detective is shot in the fray. Hart prOcures his papers and credentials and introduces himself to the local railroad officials as the man who has been sent to clear the line of banditry.
 In his new character "Buck" is just as fearless and as daring as when he was opposed to the law and order, and he makes short work of ridding the railroad of outlaws. But with the arrival on the scene of the real "Bloodhound," ''Buck" finds himself in predicament. Also he finds him self the guardian of $30,000 of gov ernment money and learns that the remnants of his former gang are out to get it. Of course "Buck" illustrates their efforts and this part of the story is replete with sensationalism.
