Argument Against Sep

WARSAW, Feb. % (By The Asso-
ciated Press).-Ihc Jewish question
is being agitated in the Polish Diet, and
there are signs of division among
the Jews.
During the debate yesterday Nathan
Levinstein, of Lembcrg, a former

told Noah Prilucki, leader of the Jew
ish Nationalist party, it could not be
expected the Poles would permit
Jewish state within the Polish state.
NJ. Korfanty asked NJ. Prilucki and
NJ. Greenbaum if they claimed New
York to be Jewish because of its large
Jewish population. He said he did not
believe New York Jews would even
think Of asking for the privilege of
forming a Jewish state within the
American state. NJ. Korfanty outlined
the Polish national policy which, he
said, promised equality to the Jews.
WASHINGTON, March 1.-The Jews
Of GaGcia have appealed to the asso-

practically any druggist in either
powdered or tablet form.
Take a teaspoonful of the powder
or two compressed tablets with a

You will find that provided you

Fairbanks in a Well Is
Great Regent Attraction

There were large audiences at
Peter Magaro's Regent Theater last
evening in spite of the rain. Douglas
Fairbanks in "Knickerbocker Buck
aroo" was the attraction. The pic
ture is one of the best the Regent
ever has had and the audience mani
tested its approval throughout the
showing. Fairbanks in a we'll is an
unusual occurrence, but there he is,
as he says: 'Sun-dried and in love
and all in an hour"
There are many thrilling situations
in which Fairbanks leaps about in
super-athletic fashion. The scene on
the train in which he exchanges
clothing with Lopez, the Mexican
bandit, is one of the best. He has
a splendid supporting company.
The music, too. was out of the
ordinary, the great organ giving
forth its sweetest strains throughout
the hours of the showing. Fair
banks will be at the Regent this
evening and tomorrow afternoon
and evening and if you want to en-
joy yourself go down to the Regent
and see him.

RinElinE Bros. and Barnum & Bailey
Consolidate AristOcracy
OF White Tops

Though not generally known, it is
fact that the circus family ante
dates the best-known names of the
stage. One hears a great deal about
the aristocracy of the footlights. The
Barrymores, the Drews, the Jeffer-
sons and others point with pride to
the long line of ancestors who trod
the boards before them. Yet, the
people of the white-tops trace their
names still farther back.
In the great, new Ringing Brothers
and Barnum & Bailey Shows Com
bined are gathered all the foremost
artists of spangleland. The consoli-
dation of these famous institutions
has made this possible. Now, and
for the first time in circus sistory.
one finds such names as the follow

grandfathers and great-grandfather tn ers
wore the spangles of the sawdust
realm. Here the patron finds the en-
tire aristocracy of circusdom in en-
3emble. 1t is the rule rather than an
exception for the son or daughter of

steps of his parents. AS soon as they
leave school the children join their
elders to be put through the mys-

hope that his child may become a

combining of the. worlds greatest
