AT THE PALACE.

Tonight fo" The last lime he Pal 1 q co is offering H. R. Warner in "The | Pagan God" and an excellent k elf h vaudr> illc show headed by "Thc Now 1 Model" with pretty girls and models. Through the Ncnrs since Eve in ha ed he Garden Of Eden. the tears Of women have asCendCH to God and He has looked down upon her great sorrow Vast armies of women have fulf11od the great purpose Only for
 love have women 1ived- in suffering
 and sacrifice, bearing the generations
 of men,
 By n1an-made laws or ira ditiOn Cov-
 cring centuries, there have been sex
 bound women enmeshed in a slavery
 of sex The bond by which man in
 his natural desire for a mate, has held
 her, cheating himself of the super
 woman
 But out of the chaos of modern times the voice of woman has spok ken, for in the crisis of civilization wom-
 ans opportunity has come. And to mans world of suffering and need, she is rendering her all in service. So in '"Thc Other Mans Wife" photodramatiC expose of the happiness that was thrown away, the family that was thrown away, the family that was practically abandoned, the hus- band that was rcbuked for being loving husband and a kind father all because the wife and mot her was cnslaVed to another whomr she ad- mired because he was socially inclined. With all that money could buy, With every luxury, With loving husband and a bea utiful home, Mrs. Hartley OCllen Cassidy is willing to sacrifice all this for one who calls himself a man, until--thc brain that had been clouded by the arttIciality of the so-
 cial whirl,' cleared away by real | man--her husband. 70, This, in brief, is the story that will be told on the screen of the Palace theater when "The Other Mans Wife is shown for three days, beginning Thursday. The greatest drama of marital life ever screened.
 The Keith vaudeville show will be headed by the .\saki JapS, one of the clevercst Japanese novelties on the \meriCan stage today Other acts include Henry Kelly, a comedian, and Mcdonald and Cleveland, in a pleasing variety offering.

Two pals who have been knights of the road for some time find refuge at a comfort ag1c southern mansion where the old darkN servant mistakes the younger for his master. of course in trying to carry on their dCCcptiOnS many humorous incidents arise and rompli- cations develop with the entrance int o the action of the inevitable heart in tcrCSt. There is d sweet little south crn girl who confronts her supposedly lainous cousin who is striving to gain possession of tho estate of his depart cd relative. The latter is successful Tor While in his attempts but finally he is beaten when confronted by the exposition of the younger of the two hobneS as being the real master after all.

 silk -hatted cnVoys arrive from Berlin They leave an issue of gold with the moncy-lusterS and retire, confident Of the support of the Rus sian radicals.
 A girl skips lightly into the room, leaps to the marble rostrom and in flames the smouldering brains of the comrades by her creed Of violence, Then she leaves Pctrograd for New York as an envoy Of destruction from leaders Of inc radicals.
 How she finds her sister living in Splendor in New York and how the whole fury of her heart is directed against her own father, who is known to her only as a stone hearted money king, form the theme Of this unusual film drama.
 Dorothy Phillips, star Of "'The Heart Of Humanity,' rises to dramatic heights in a dual role in her latest starring vehicle, "Thc Right 10 Hap piness." She is sensationally tenn pestuous as Sonia, the little comrade of the reactionarics, and fastidious and self-ccntered as Vivian, her twin sister, daughter of the money lord.

In the kitchen of her own home Sis ter Mary cooks daily for a family of four adults. She brought to her kitch- en an underst anding of the chemistry Of cooking, gained, from study of do- mestic science in a state university. Consequently the advice she offers is a happy com bination of theory and practice. Every recipe she gives is her own. first tried out and served at her family table.
 My next door neighb0r asserts that his 10-year old daughter makes better coffee than anyone in his house And he Is undoubtedly right because she water very accurately.
 The cook is dealing with form ulaS and weights and measures just as a chemist does and unless she is pains taking and accurate her results will vary and not come out right.
 Lots of women say they "neVer measure" anything. Their secret is long experience and an unusual eye and knowing how much a certai bowl holds. They really do measure but not with m easuring cups and spoons.
 It's so easy to leave part of an egg in the shell, or butter sticking to the cup or spoon and while it may not seem like enough of an ingredient to make any difference every little bit of material counts these days.
