Bob was never a man to make a

the cry of a little child has always
been too much for his feelings.

road, however, Is a new type to me,

wondrous thing. At one end is a tiny
kitchen with all sorts of electric grills
nj ovens presided owe by the neat
Jap. Then comes the Giving" room"
with rose colored silk curtains at the
little windows, a lamp with shade to
match on the reading table, and lots
of magazines and books. Along both
walls run cushioned seats, and a few
comfortable chairs complete the
main furnishings.
Mr.. Herron's office opens out of
this-a stern affair with desk, book
shelves, stationery cabinets n files,
a type-writing machine on the sec
retary's table, and all the necessaries
of a well-equipped business sanctum.
There is a costliness about every
thing-a look of ~silverplate, rose
wood and leather-that
quite excites me. The master of this
moving palace of industry appears
never to consider the price of any,
thing. The world is at his command
apparently and he takes everything
for granted.
Until this afternoon he took me
for granted-as though I were an
understudy who had been kept for
just this emergency, the Illness of his
secretary. Suddenly he looked NJ
from his papers, studied me atten-
lively and remarked.
"You know, you do very we'll, Miss
Varick-not half bad"
Thanks 1 smiled. "I've had a

Yes. But / don't mean that.

LESSON 2
How to Clean for Winter

How to Clean for Winter
window Screens:
Window screens are usually very
dusty. and if not copper may have
become rusty during the summer.
Give them a good brushing to re-
move the dust, and then wipe both
sides with kerosene. This will pre-
serve the wire screens n will clean
them, so that they are ready to put
away. If possible, choose a dry place
and stand them straight, so the
frames will not warp. Racks or
shelves to stand them on are often
built for them and are economical
because then the screens are not
likely to be broken. There Is no
reason why screens should not be
painted in the fall, but it is usually
done in the spring so that they may
look fresher. Have the paint thin so
as not to close the mesh.
R-efrigcratOrS:
With the idea of economiZing,
many housewives are planning to
use window oxe instead of refrig-
orators. If the refrigerator has been
in the cellar in the summer, 1t should
be brought into good sunlight and be
| allowed to air thoroughly. AT all
| times wash every part inside with
| soda. and water; rinse with hot water
and ammonia and dry thoroughly III

en- outside with oil and turpentine, in
| equal proportion, or if it is much
worn. a coat of good varnish Will
( make it like new. Be very sure the

is thoroughly cleaned; a long wire

House furnishing departments are

! used as window boxes for storing

| pense of purchasing such a box, any
good, well covered box that is vent1-
lated, and sweet and clean, may be
used from October to April. To keep
| clean, paint with white enamel paint,
and have it arranged with a slanting
! roof to insure good drainage.
Small holes bored in the sides in

such a box is a good economical step
in preparing the house for winter.

Personality Coifures For Debutantes- The Ribbon
BY BURKE,
Editor of Beauty Culture.

There is a mode of dressing the
hair for every age. rs well as for ev-
cry type of face and form OF mead.
The rule Is simple: Wear your hair
as you wish, SO long az you make 1t
conform to your particular type.
There was never any time when the
beauty of woman is so emphasized In
the way she wears her hair as now
The chraming young girl-the de-
butante or near-debutante-can wear
a hairdress of a simple girlish style,
with a ribbon bandeau to bind it
close about the crown of the head
and emphahize the lines of the head.
That is the important point to reveal,
or at least indicate-the line of the
head.
Such a style of hairdressing would
be obviously improper for the young
matron or the woman who has a diff
ferent type Of face, but it is suitable
for the girl.

LYRIC

If you have never had the oppor- tunity of seeing that famous crook play Alias. Jimmy Valentine" don't fail to see the interpretation by the PoIi Players this week.
 Paul Armstrong's famous play is a good specimen of the superior sort of melodrama now prevalent on the American stage. It deals with the reformation of the convict but does it in a, Ight-hearted, theatricaliy eff fective manner. with several well written scenes There is one incident of uncommon thrilling power in the last act, when the ex-convict, now a bank cashier. to prove his devotion to the woman of his heart, exercises his burgIarious talents to save the life of child who has been impris- oned in the big vault.
 The play also exposes the methods employed by the police in many cities to strengthen their stool pigeon sys- tenn by constantly making life a bur den to crooks who have done time and preventing oftimes the reforma- ton of an ex-convict. The play has Q record of two years of uninterrupted phenomenal success at the Wallack theaere in New York. Reservations for seats can be made at any time between 9:3O o'clock in the morning and o'clock in the evening

PLAZA

Starting today Tom Browns Con stabules will appear in the funniest act in vaudeville, a rural comedy musical oddity with eight people.

The scene is laid in R. country general store where the village "slickers'' are discussing the times, and introduce the rehearsal of Rubevtlle's up-to- date jazz band. The feature picture ''The Code of the Yukon" with Mitchell Lewis, famous star of The Barrier" and Tom Santschi, star of The Spoiler," both ten reel Rex Beach stories.

PARK

An nEagement out of the ordinary and wholly different from anything that has even been here before is an nounced for Tuesday anti Wedn es1ay at the Park theatre when the New York Syncopated Orchestra. of 50 Ne gro artists, musicians, and singers will appear.
 The organization comprises talented musicians and vOcalists and is con ducted by jWilI Marion Cook, Negro composer. They have just returned from their appearances in London, where their original programs proyeS one hit of the theatrical season.
 It will ibe remembered by many that this organization was, last season, one of the fbig features of Ziegfeld's Fa~ nous Midnight F7roucs. in New York, and later the sensation of 'T'he Co., coanut Grove atop the Century the atre there.
 Numbered among the artists are Buddy Gilmore, the marvellous trap drummer, who created a genuine sen sation here, 9 few years ago, when he appeared at the Colonial with Mir and Mrs. Vernon Castle; Frank With CTS. wizard of the trombone. who in troduced The Blues" to New York and was the talk of the town; the Original Jazz Quartet, the GlenwoOd Quartet. the Exposition Jubilee F'ouD and many others.
 One of the features of the program will be 'Exhortation," number which has won acclaim on both sides of the water. Cooks famous Rain Song" will be on the program.
 As to the program itself. best of all. fl is one of all, 1t is one of marked diversity, and wide range in the pres entation of every phase of the humOr, the emotions and the distinctive negro character of melody.

 One of stage1ands big successes Cheating Cheaters" is the photoplay feature, starring Clara Kimball Young. In its picturized form, this big "cTook" drama attains even more interest than 1t did on the speaking stage. The Pathe News Is another attraction on the film program.

 Edwards Olive Tablets

The secret of keeping young is to feel young - to do this you must watch your liver and bowels - there's no need of having sallow complexion - dark rings under your eyes - pinlples - bilious look in your face - dull eyes with no sparkle. Your doctor will tell you ninety per cent of all sickness comes from in. active bowels and liver.
 Dr. Edwards, a well-known physician in Ohio, perfected a vegetable com pound mixed with clive oil to act on the liver and bowels, which he gave to his patients for years.
 Dr: Edwards Olive Tablets, the substi- tute for calomel, are gentle in their action vet always effective. They bring about that exrberance of spirit, that natural ouoyancy which should be enjoyed by everyone, by toning up the liver and clear Ang the system of impurities.
