The development of the plot, which
concerns the effort of a gently bred
daughter of an aristocratfc Virginia
family to care for her mother and sis
ter when the austere head Of the
family finds it impossible to restore
the family fortune, follows a course
that touches upon all of the easier
emotions and appeals at once to the
heart as we'll as the dramatic sense
of the spectator. AS Nancy Lee, Miss
Talmadge displays all of the in
gratiating talents that have placed
her high on the list of contemporary
screen artistes
The production which Select has
given THE Way of Woman" reflects,
painstaking attention to detail.

Stew Of Sprouts Gives
The VitamiteS to Down
H. c. l., Say Chemists

NEW YORK, Aug. 1S.-Fried
sprouts of beans, buttermilk,
bread, newborn pea plants stew
ed with kernel OF wheat pie, all
of them powerful in vitamites,
may be the secret of lowering the
cost of living, according to the
American Chemical Society, which
will hold a research convention in
Philadelphia. beginning Septem-
Der >.
Vitamites are what people
need. chemists say. Nitamites
have the same effect on the man
who eats it as wildcat meat. Vita
mite is invisible power through
nourishment in foods, the chem
lists explained. Sprouting peas,
beans. corn and other grains fill
them with vitamite, making them
frUit-like.
1t is not a new secret, say the
chemists. The Chinese discovered
it several thousand years ago,
and began vitamiting their rice
then into chop suey.

PLANE MOORING
TO BE AUTOMATIC
WITH new DEVICE
Invention Being Perfected in
England Will Do Away
With Hangars.

FLORENCE, Aug. Is. .- Automatic
moorings for Britain's gigantic air
ships are soon to become a reality
The admiralty afrship department
will. with the assistance of new de-
vices now being perfected. attempt to
land and moor one Of the largest type
OF airships without the assistance OF
anyone except the crew. Under the
scheme the craft will be moored in
the open. thus doing away with the
costly hangers now necessary for
housing the machines.
This experiment, il successful. will
remove the last and greatest Objec-
tion to the use of the airship as
commercial proposition. Up to now
the greatest factors initiating
against the success Of the lighter
than-air craft, from a commercial
point Of view, have been their han
ding and housing.
It will be the most important de-
velopment in the evolution OF air
ships since their invention, according
to the admiralty and air ministry ex-
perts, who are acquainted with the
details of the scheme.
The new device has been kept
secret by the admiralty. If success
full, il will make the large type of
aerial liner a safe commercial propo-
sition and reduce the operating cost
to a minimum. Automatic moorings
are essential if the lighter-than-air
machine is to be seriously considered
in commercial and passenger work

WHY THEY ARRESTED CLAUDIA,

Cedar Rapids Republican: Claudia
Hampson has come to place on the
front pages. She was arrested in
that old moral ramshackle place that
rs still called Dowie's Zion. She is
charged with wearing a dress that
was five inches shy at the top and
eleven at the bottom--some pious
elder acting as constable, probably
measured her garments. The chief
OF police of that village of intoIerants
says that every woman who passes
through there dressed except accord.
ing to their DEGREES will be similarly
treated, that is arrested. The girl in
the case who claims that she has
never been SO much as kissed by a
man, says that she is going to sue
the village for a million dollars. Let
1t be hoped she gets her verdict for
that amount and then that she will
receive all the real estate of the vii
lage az her payments and give il a
cleaning up, Kidding it of pious hypo-
crits and moral fanatics who have
long been an offense to all right
minded people still living on this
earth.
