TODAY'S ANNIVERSARY.

The first to advocate. and put into practice the education of workingmen in the application of science to the practical arts was Dr. George Bir
 beck, who was born in England 143 years ago today. While professor of the Andersonian Institution at Glas- gow he established popular lectures for artisans, thus laying the founda- tion for the Mechanics Institutions which afterward came into existence all over Great Britain. The first lec- ture at the Glasgow institution at tracted seventy-five artisans. The second was attended by 200 men, and 500 were on hand the third time Dr. Birbeck later became president of the Mechanics Institution founded in London. Dr. Birbeck's pupils were so grateful to him that they present. ed him with a silver cup as a token of their esteem. The movement for the scientific education of workers has since spread over the world.

Like Being Hit !" By Rattle Snake
Says that every time you cut or pick at a corn you invite lockjaW

You reckless men and women who are pestered with corns and who have at least once week invited an awful death from Iockjaw or blood poison are now told by a Cincinnati authority to use a drug called freez- one, which the moment a few drops gre applied to any corn, the soreness is believed and soon the entire corn, root and all lifts right out with the fi1lgers, without one particle of pain This freezone Is a sticky substance which dries the moment it is applied and just loosens the ccrn without in- flaming or even irritating the sur rounding tissue or skin. He says a quarter of an ounce will cost very little at any of the drug stores, but this Is sufficient 10 rid ones feet oi eVery hard or soft corn or callus
 You are positively warned that eitting or picking at a corn is sui cidal habit.-Adv,

PLAZA

Constance Talmadge, one of the daintiest and cleverest of screen stars,
 will be shown in her latest picture in which she excels all others, Sauce for the Goose" at the Plaza theatre for the first time today. Sauce for the Goose" is a wholesome five-reel com
 edy drama that is full of life action
 from the beginning to the end. Why
 and for what reason should a man
 who has as pretty wife as Con- stance Talmadge makes in this pie
 ture, look for women outside of his
 home? Does his charming wife take
 1t for granted that she must sit home
 and wait for him or does she decide
 that the old fable of what's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander, goes
 in her case? The picture Is clever
 and amusing and especially interest
 ing to women folks.
 Another unusually big feature of the
 bill for the last three days of this week
 is the return engagement of Mime.
 Ellis, The Woman Who Knows" She was here a short while ago and had entire Bridgeport talking and mar yelling at her most uncanny gift of beIL5 dDIG lO answer all questions put to her. If there's anything troubling you and YOU are anxious to know more about it, just come to the Plaza theatre the last half of this week and ask Mime. Ellis.
 Oth"r vaudeville attractions to be offered today are Ward and Cullen in their new act, "Pianosongologist {;
 Pielot and Scofield. a pair of clever novely makers, and Dick Knowles, one of the greatest and best come dians now playing vaudeville.
 Added to this will be shown another Red Cross picture, entitled New Faces for Old" which shows what science can and has accomplished for the poor wounded soldiers, to bring them back so that their relatives and friends will recognize them, and a showing of the latest release of the Hearst International News.
 These attractions will be presented beginning today and will continue for the remainder of the week, with three shows daily.
