 remarked last night to Manager Mas son, This is the theater that never
 disappoints,' which is saying a lot,
 so thinks Manager Mason, who in fu-
 ture intends using this slogan in all
 his advertising. This weeks play, The Silent WitnesS," has met with a big reception and has done more to add to the personal populakty of the Lyceum Players than anything they have so far offered. It is a strong play full of human interest, the comedy is good and not of the oVer-drawn variety, the characters are true to life and handled in a superb manner by one and all of the players The production is all that any thea ter in the world could possibly make. The lighting effects are Very good and the team work of the players
 excellent. If in advertising this play the management calls attention to the fact that it has been called The greatest dramatic triumph since Ma dame K '' it in no way eXagger ates the sterling qualities of the play for it has everything that a play should have, namely thrills suspense, comedy, in fact, it is 9, real stirring m elodrama. There are but three more performances remaining, to-
 night, and Saturday matinee and night, so those of you who have post

Silversand Lake,. August Something. My Very Dear Joan:
 Write me, dearest friend, your idea of rightness in marriage. l mean give me your advice upon what I ha Ee told Eric Wallis to do, for 1 am not sure I have insisted upon the wise course.
 Gratitude and pity" I lectured him, you remember, "are not enough to marry on. Yet you must do it.. You must stand by her and keep whatever promises you made"
 All right" he answered.
 But, Joan, he looked like a man receiving a death sentence. What have l done to him-to them both |?
 I have always shuddered at mar riages which were made at the point of the pistol so to say. Do you re- member the little Wiggins girl who came to the good women of Bents vile and cried:
 But I don't want to marry Willie Mason NOW. I thought I loved him. but now I don't. I never want to see him again!'?
 And do you remember how, follow ing the light as they saw it, they in sisted? And Mollie Wiggins ended her perpleXities in the lake?
 I've been thinking all night of her. Wouldn't it have been better to have sent her away somewhere and helped her to a fresh start? She was a nice little thing, helpful and full of intel Hgence. But she had no mother or father; no one to teach her right from wrong; no one to take an interest o" give her a good time. She thought Willie Mason was her friend, and she was eager and Wistful-and grateful.
 Isn't it som ething the same with Wallis and Mrs. Kymbal? She be- friended him when he needed help desperately. And he probably con- fused his gratitude with love. Per haps gratitude IS love- of sort. But where there is no more than gratitude and pity left. is marriage right?
 The trouble is that she wants it. She believes he loves her. There are people like that-who can believe what they want to believe. After aO Joan. perhaps her love for him is enough for two. Perhaps she can bring back the feeling he frankly ad- mits he had for her when he was III at her home in England during the

The early September air is sweet with the smell of spices, cooking sug- ar and fruits-and no wonder-for it's the delicious season the housewife holds sacred to marmalade.
 Marmalade-in the preserved fruit world-is a sort of simplified fruit butter. The d-fashioned apple and peach buffers were a tremendous un- notwithstanding long hours of cooking, much sugar and much ardu- ous stirring. Marmalade achieves much the same consistency as fruit buffers and an even superior richness and delicacy of flavor. Usually it is made and packed in moderate quanti ties so that it is easier to handle and affords greater possibilities of variety Here are some excellent marmalado recipes-both fruit and vegetable.
 Carrot Marmalade.
 cupfuls ground carrots.
 8 cupfuls sugar.
 4 lemons.
 4 teaspoonfuls ground ginger root. Cook the carrots until tender and add the sugar. Slice the lemons very thin and remove the seeds. Cut the slices in quarters. Add to the carrots and cook very slowly until thick and clear looking. Stir only enough to keep from burning. Pack in hot, ster- ilized pint jars or glasses and boil 5 minutes in hot water bath. Seal.
 Dixie Marmalade.
 2 cupfuls ground carrots.
 1-2 cupfuls shopped sweet green peppers.
 2 lemons.
 cupfuIs rhubarb, cut fine.
 2 cupfuls sugar.
 Ginger root to flavor.
 Cook carrots, add sugar and sliced lemons and pepper Add ground gin ger root and cook until thick. Pack in sterlized glasses or jars and boil 5 minutes in hot water bath.

The first authenticated instance OF
Marshall county land selling up to the
$500 an acre price comes from Marion
township, where Harry Parsons has
contracted to sell to Roy Shipton. OF
the Green Mountain neighborhood,
eighty acres for $4,000 cash. Posses
sion is to be given March l, when
Shipton will occupy the place for
home. Mr.. Shipton and his father own
a considerable acreage in the neighbor-
hood of this farm. The land purchas-
ed is good but the improvements are
very moderate.
Two sales Of valuable city residence

class.

also her quarter-section farm two and
one-quarter miles northeast OF Bas-
sett, in Chickasaw county. for $l40

DOTTED chaps and six shooters but now
he's back in harness, astride a trusty
pony and with his wide brimmed Stet-
SON atop his head. However, this pic
ture leaves the regular channel OF
Hart films for there is love story In
IL with Hart as the hero. Sounds fun
nv. doesn't It? But Hart puts over the
lover stiff as we'll as he pulls his gun,
rides his horse and throws his rope.
The story tells Of -yesterner who
sees q horse thief shot in the back,
who afterwards kills his assailant. A
letter tells Square Deal SandersoR
that the thief is a brother OF Mary
Bransford, owner Of ranch In New
Mexico, who writes that she Is beset
by a man who is trying to steal her
property. Square Deal Sanderson goes
to her rescue and poses as her brother,
whom she had not seen from childhood.
He saves her, gets into and out of
many bad scrapes, but finally bests
the villain and his band and wins the
girl as his reward. Ann Little is the
leading woman and the only woman IN
the cast.
