 Her tone held coquettish teasing for aall the vorld,; I, told myself with disgust, as if I were a young girl and Major Grantland a suitor. But it was worse than folly to utter any protest. Her Fluf1iness', is not particularly amenable to discipline, especially to moral suasion. .".s >tf,

.AT THE BALAlIL.

For those who say that there IS nothing new under the sun, a trip to the Palace theater where Douglas TairGanks' new picture. His Ma iesty, the American opened today will be tonic.
 The picture in the first place, tells a genuine story Whether the story is probable or not doesn't matter. 1t is entertaining in a high degree. His Majesty, the American is made to amuse, and that it does from start to finish. It is bright, snappy and' clean -a picture that will delight boys and girls from five to eighty-tiVe.
 Fairbanks starts the picture in a Wild and delirious nightmare, then rush. to Sire, then to police raid : on an underworld dive, then to. Mex ico and the border, where he cleans up the bandits. then to Europe where he takes d hand at bossing a revo- lution.
 Everything that has been claimed for His Majesty, the American" is more than borne out in the produc- ton. The picture has been splendid ly put on, and the cast supporting Fairbanks is exceptional. Marjory Daw, who has been seen before in numerous of Doug's pictures is with him again, and Frank Campeau, Lil- lian Langdon, E. H. Sothern's talented brother, sam, Albert McQuarrie, Jay sDwiggins, Bull" Montana, Will Gill lis, Phil Gastrox and many others help Fairbanks in fine shape. The di- rection of the picture is credited to Joseph Henaberry. i'
 All in all, His Majesty, the Amer ican' scores, and scores heavily. It is about as much honest, wholesom e fun as can possibly be crowded into a film The screaming Mack Sennett comedy "Uncle Tom Without the Cabin,' with the original Sennett beauties is also on the bill.
