TOM MIX, FO KS TOMORROW.

a book that leaves nothing to be de- sired in comedy situations and da- logue of the snappy, bright variety. Dividing honors with MT. Cormican
 who plays Eddie Kettle, Edward Lynch as Al Cleveland, the clerk at the Rip Van Wrinkle inn is exceedingly funny and it is the best role in which he Il, s appeared. The specially en- gagged team of Curtis and Donegan add much to the gaiety of the occa- sion. Miss Curtis solo "On the Beach at Le Lei Wi'' and Mr. Donegan's number If I Find a Girl" and his eccentric dancing are easily among the hits of the performance. Ethel Van WaldrOn, Nina C. Gleason, Jo- seph1ne Sake, J. K. Hutchinson, Des- mOnd Gallagher and all the other ia = Vo1ftes score heavily in singularly well fitting roles. On Friday evening the members of the chamber of com merce and their friends will attend the performance in body. There will be a hundred or more in the party. The curtain evenings rises at SEQ and matinees tomorrow and Sat urday at 2:20. Next week the Cormi- cans will offer Avery Hopwood's s clever Fair and Warmer" comedy of temperature and temperament

SAVING ICE AND ICE BOX.
(By Biddy Bye. )

It is economy to buy a refrigera- tor of good quality and good size, as both ice and food keep longer. Set the box in the coolest corner of the kitchen.
 All refrigerators should have an enamel or tile lining. These types are easily cleaned and do not absorb food odors. If the ice box already owned is metal lined the lining should be painted with several coats of white paint and white enamel.
 Refrigerators should be thorough = ly cleaned at least twice a week, using strong solution of cold soda water, and pouring hot soda water down the drain pipe.
 The food chambers and shelves should be washed out once d week and dried with a clean cloth. Never allow spilled food to remain in the ice box. Wipe it out at once. Ice wrapped in newspapers or a heavy wool cloth melts less rapidly than ice left exposed to the air, but does not cool the box quite so quick ly or so well.
 Do not set any receptacle on the ice direct, or let bottles or pans rest against it as anything touching the ice melts it more rapidly. If water in bottles is to be cooled next to the ice, set the bottles in the ice cham Der but do not let them touch the cal<e but slip a sheet of newspaper or cloth between bottles and ice. Food should not be left uncov- cred in the ice box. Keep milk and butter in glass or earthenware GOV cred reCeptaCleS.
 A number of pint and quart glass jars, with glass tops, are ideal food containers for keeping leftover or fresh food in the ice box. Even eggs, and fresh fruits and vegetables should not be laid directly on the ice-boX shelves and floors. Provide wire baskets or bowls for such ar ticles to keep them together and up off the floor. Covered china bowls and dishes are also convenient recep-

She had been almost imperceptlbly edging toward the door as she spoke, 1 although she must have known that her chances of reaching it were small | indeed. But Allen Drake permitted her to get within three steps of it 1 before he spoke. l invOluntarlly thought of eat playing with a mouse, and in my resentment at what l mentally termed his cold -blOoded- ness, felt for an instant throb of sympathetic admiration for the woman battling so shrewdly against the menace the nature of which she had
 not yet fathomed
 The next instant a revulSiOn of feeling shook me l remembered all
 the suffering this woman had caused
 my little mother, and the slow torture she was dealing out to my infirm ! father. And I am afraid I gloated at
 the effect of MT. Drake's drawing words.
 "Better stop and talk things over," he said. Don't make any mista l<e about us. We've got the goods,
 straight, all wool and a yard wide, so
 can the chatter about your mazume. You'll have it all when we leave
 here-and-you1l need it," he added significantly.
 She took her hand from the knob of the door against which she had
 backed. Evidently something in his manner had convinced her that she
 would better obey him.
 "All right, spill whatever you have,'' she said with defiant sullen- ness.
 MT. Drake made a slight gesture , toward Lillian. The woman Whirled toward her.
 "Noth-ing do-ing!' she snarled l Anything that's said to me is said ! by a man. I'll take no dressing down 1 at the hands of a woman"

A noted author and professor in his book.

What '"The Lady, Said as Lillian
 Faced Her,


 For a long moment there was Bsilence in the room where Allen Drake and Lillian Underwood faced the woman whom they had success &funy tracked to her apartment. &tains of the alcove l breathlessly watched the silent drama.
 For drama it was that was being enacted there before my eyes. I sensed it in every breath of the heavily scented atmosphere heard it in the quickened respiration of the woman who stood glaring at Allen Drake, trying to preserve her fiction of contemptuous surprised anger.
 She was evidently determined not to speak again until he had answered : her reference to the rogues' gallery. But both Allen Drake and Lillian Underwood knew too well the value of continued silence to spoil the advan- tage they had.
 I do not understand how she could have remained sUent as long as she did. She must instantly have realized that the intruders were no burglars, that in the parlance she no doubt best under stood, they had something on her &She must have been tortured with 4suspense as to the exact nature or their business with here, yet for long time her composure equalled that or Lillian Underwood herself, and that IS Hthe last word concerning polse.
