A Ready Made Coffee
Pure and Delicious

This is the story of a coffee that
does not have to be made! And the
way of 1t is this:
1t was necessary for our boys in the
trenches to have real coffee, and yet
they did not have the means to make
it. So Hires Instant Soluble Coffee
was made.
Ard as proof that Hires Instant
Soluble Coffee met every government
requirement, &C 2-3 per cent. of all the
trench coffee contracted for by, the
American Army was this same Hires
instant Soluble Coffee, We couldn't
agree to supply more than this because
our facilities would not permit.
Carefully chosen coffee beans from
a choice selection of, Java and Mocha
coffee are used in making Hires In
slant Soluble Coffee. And the pure &C.
lIcious juice of these beans is dried
and converted into powdered, soluble
form. Immediately water Is added,
the coffee powder dissolves and be-
comes as originally made.
Having Hires Instant Soluble Coffee,
means no more trouble over the coffee
pot and no more emptying coffee
grounds. It. means that elimination
you want it--whenever you want It,
too-and you don't have two or three
cups left over in the pot.
And Hires Instant Soluble Coffee can
now be secured in 30c tins or larger
sizes. for use right in your home. A
30c can of Hires Instant Soluble Coffee
Is equivalent TO n pound of the best
Mocha and Java coffee. The low price
Is due 10 the fact that with our ex-
| elusive process we extract 100 per cent
| more Juice from the bean than you can
| in making coffee in the old way. Get
| 1t in all stores.-Adv.

This was the first time since their

New National Theater last week, with
James K. Hackett in the lovable role

form, with the various characters por-

morning. for the first time in this
city, before an audience composed
mainly of newspaper men. 1t will be
the feature at the Leader all this
week and is well worth seeing. even
by those who have seen the play.
Many of the scenes and incidents that
are necessarily left to the imagina-
tion in the play are pictured in the
photoplay, which held the close atten-
won genuine applause at the close.
The play itself, if it may be called a
play. was carefully reviewed in The
Star the early part of last week. But
there is much also to be said Of the
Leader. 1t is a reflex of the life Of
the trenches. with intensely amusing
incidents and characters. and yet
withal 1t does not completely over
shadow the tragedy that lay behind.
but its comedy is thoroughly enjoy
able throughout. New York critics
have called it "one of the most de-
licious comedies ever filmed" The
musical accompaniment. the New York

and adds to the pleasure of the ex-
hibition. The public showing of the
picture yesterday, it is said. broke all
house records for attendance.
Following the morning showing the
newspaper men were entertained at
luncheon at a local restaurant, but
without in any degree impairing their
appreciation Of the picture.

Mr.. Mantel's INSTALLATION of the
great French churchmau is at wa

Mr.. Mantell's interpretive art cham

against the enemies Of France. At

When his attention was not REQUIRED
to thwart the Vaccinations Of the
plotters against France and the weak
King Louis XIII. Richelieu found de-
light in the simple things of life. Pos
sessing both a kind nature and a rare
sense of humor, he is shown as a low
able old man, capable in his infirmi-
ties of outwitting the conspirators
who would have given France over to
her enemies. Mr.. Mantell is at his
best in those moments of the play
when Richelieu's cleverness is put to
the test in protecting his ward, Julie
against the contamination of court
life. and in sounding the love OF the
youth who would marry her.
Miss Genevieve Hamper is an ap-
