PALACE THE,.>TER.

"The Eorder Logion," d vivid picturization of Zane Grey's widely read story, starring Blanche Bates and Hobart BosWorth, and acclaimed by New York newspapers and pie turegoers as the most virile drama of the year, will be presented by GoldWyn at the Palace theater to- night, Friday and Saturday.
 It tells the story of Joan Randall (Blanche Bates), daring girl of the West, who makes her home in d mining camp in the Rockies. She is engaged to wed Jim Cleeve, a shift less prOspector. She quarrels with him about his lack of energy and when he retorts angrily she gives him back the engagement ring. Jim leaves camp after annOuncing he will join a band of desperadoes that has long preyed upon the mining camp. When a week passes and Jim fails to return, Joan starts out in search of him. On the way she falls into the hands of Jack Kells, leader of the outlaw border legion. He takes Joan to his shack to hold her for ransom. That night Joan tries to escape and kells grapples with her. In the scrimmage Joan grabs his revolver and shoots Kells. As she is about to flee the wounded bandit pleads with her to remain and nurse him, declar- ing that he loves her. What happens thereafter brings about a climax as thrilling and exciting as it is unusual.
 Other photoplays consist of the second episode of "Elmo the Mighty" with Elmo Lincoln; a laughing Mack Sennett Comedy and the Palace News. The vaudeville bill consists of three real headliners and includes "Phroso," the act that fools them all; Raymond and Armond, in new songs and dances, and the Clemenso Brothers, Hippodrome clowns, in an acrobatiC musical novelty.

WORLD FAMOUS ACT AT PALACE,

 Phroso has been exhibited in all of the principal cities of the world, ap- bearing for a whole season at the Hippodrome in London and five months at the Moulin Rouge, Paris. When brought to America he was in- troduced to the public first by. the Keith circuit of theaters. The per- formance given by Phroso is most puzzling one and will hold your breathless attention. Phroso is billed as the Mysterious Automaton," but ls to the true nature of the act, opin- ions differ. Some contend that it is really wonderfully contrived piece of mechanism, while others maintain that Phroso is a human being en- dowed with wonderful powers of control.

II NH-j true that I made cakes lnfrequcnt\, because of katie's efficiency in the culinary line, but 1 had DickN's Woft for it-and he had an especially sweet tooth, as well as a faStidlous taste that they were uniformly excellent Indeed, it was only in answer to hlS pleadings for an especial klnd Whlch appealed to him that l ever attempted cake making, for Katie, like all eoou cooks is apt tcmperamentally to re- sent any one else's intrusion into her particular province. Indeed, 1t was for this reason that had stolen down so early in the morning. thought grimly that I should have set my alarm clock for midnight. for even Katie was almost an hour ahead Ot her usual schedule.
 It was Katie who now took the floor. She advanced toward us, her head held high her eyes fairly blazing.
 Were you think I coom in here?' she demanded truculently.
 My n1other-in-law swept her with a Withering glance. evidently preparing to crush her with one of her dlscl- Dlnary lectures on rudeness.
 What do you mean, kate?' 1 asked kindly.
 "Margaret!' my mother-in-law ex- claimed sternly. ''Have the goodness to let me deal with"
 "Katie Could Nill!"
 A torrent of words from Katie in- terrupted her.
 Wears now, week in, week out Katie began tempestuously, T make lots cakes, pies, everything nice, you all eat, say Katie, how nice!' Katie, dot so good!'" her voice fairly dripped scornfulness. And now dot leetle ba- bee, he coom to hees first birthday cake, and Katie, she not good enough to make eet.

 She threw her arms above her head in an emotional gesture, then flung her hands before her face. To do Mother Graham justice, l don't believe she understood half what the girl said, and surely not the reference to the lit tie dead baby, for my mother-in-law, while stern, is yet just, and has be- sides a strong undercurrent of human kindness running beneath her brusque exterior. And I am sure she never would have spoken in the manner she did if she had fully comprehended Katie's words.
 Margaret" she said coldly, twill you kindly take that girl out of the kitchen and keep her out until I get this cake made? 1 do not wish any thing to disturb me, for it is a com plicated recipe, and l certainly can not think with a commotion like this going on."
 I stepped quickly to Katie's side, seized her arm, for she had dropped her hands from her eyes at my moth er-in-law's first words, and was look ing at the elder woman with the eX- pression of an outraged animal about to spring.
 Come with me, Katie dear," I said softly into her ear, regardless of my mother-in-law's snort of disapproval of my gentleness. The girl stood tense for a moment, then with a wild burst of tears, Katie's invariable safe ty valve, accompanied me docilely enough to the library, while, lowing to the inevitable, I buried deep my plan for making my little lads birth day cake.

NEW PEAR RECEIPTS
(By Biddy Bye)

Pears are temptingly displayed in the market place-but one who is not purse proud will do well to jour- ney to the country, or bargain with a pear-tree owning neighbor. In other words, pear prices are high-but commercial canned pears may be higher.
 For canning the Bartlett pears are preferable, as they are large and full favored, but for preserving and pickles, or gingered pears then the large, juicy fruit.
 Pear Preserves
 Peel and halve pears but do not remove cores. Make a very thick sirup by cooking ? pounds of sugar with , R cupfuls of water. To the sirup, when the sugar is dissolved add lemon slices, F dozen whole cloves and ? sticks of cinnamon. Cook the sirup minutes and skim. Put the pears into the hot sirup, a few pieces at a time, and cook until the fruit is tender. Remove and pack in heated and sterilized jars, fill up with hot sirup, add a slice of the cooked lemon, and seal.
 Pear Marvel.
 Wash and peel but do not core small, hard pears, and put in 8 bak- ing dish with alternate layers of sliced lemon: Cover the filled dish with water and molasses, half and half and set on the back of the stove all night. Next day bake six to eight hours in the f1reIess cooker. Pack into hot sterilzed jars and seal when done. The pears should be dark red in color

ERNEST LISTER

Ey the untimely death of Ernest
Lister the state Of Washington has
lost a brave, honest, able and eff
ficient governor, man who did not
hesitate to sacrifice his private bust
ness and his health in the discharge
OF his duties as a public official.
To render efficient service to the
people of the state, who had twice
elected him as their chief executive,
was the highest ambition of his life.
He placed his obligations to his con-
stituents above personal friendships
and party fealty He believed that
he could strengthen the political or
ganization with which he affiliated
more by giving the most efficient adj
ministration possible than by build
ing up "a machine by the appointment
of his supporters and party workers
to office BY following this policy
he lost friends and caste as a demo-
crat, but won the confidence of the
voters, Efficiency rather than parti-
sanship was the test by which he Sc
lected his appointees and measured
their work.
He placed implicit confidence in
the discrimination of the people and
did not hesitate to defy influential
politicians and powerful interests,
on the theory that the rank and file
of the voters would sustain him
when they knew the facts,
He did with his might what his
hands found to do, and undermined
his rugged health by oyerwork and
too close application to his official
duties. The two strenuous cam
paigns which he made for governor
drew heavily upon the large fund Of
reserve strength which he had ac-
quired by clean living, and the bur
den Of war work which devolved up
on him as chief executive of the state
Slapped his health and vitality. He
refused to take the time for needed
rest and exercise until he had fin
ished the job. and died a martyr to
his high ideals of duty as patriotic
citizen and war governor of great
state
