Pauline Frederick pleased everyone
who saw her yesterday in THE Pal
User Case at the Princess. Many
folks say that the charming actress
gives one of the greatest emotional
Interpretations that she has ever been
seen In
The storS is that OF a young girl
who sold herself for the sake Of her
sick parents, and who later found out
that she was not married to the man
she was living with at all, but that
she had been the victim of hoax,
he having had mock ceremony per-
formed The climax gives her unlim-
tied opportunities which she takes ad-
vantage of to the satisfaction OF the
audience.
The Pathe Weekly, and Carter
De Haven Comedy are also on the
board today.

One day little girl about 10 years of age came along. She was not rich girl, but very poor. I could seq her little eyes wander all over the show case. Pretty soon one of her sisters came along and, when they saw me, the little girls said, "Oh, how pretty that doll is, If only mother and father had enough money to buy me that doll" 4 week after a rich girl came along and said, Mother, may I have that doll?" Imnfe- diately the mother came in and asked the of sudden the man came and bought me in the store. While I was standing there the rich girl came up and said, T don't like her after all" When I heard that I thought of what that little girl said, "Oh, how I wish mother and father had enough money to buy me that doll" Then the man put me back in the showcase And there I stayed Every day that poor little girl would come and admire me, and every day she would say, "Oh, how I wish I had that doll" But I know that she will never have me or see me any more, for I an going to be taken to America and wher

Don't Be SeIfiah.

Dear Uncle Jed: I am going to tell you a story that was told me. Once up- on time there was girl named Ellen. She was very rich and about block from her lived a little sirl named Mary. She was very poor. Tonight was Christ mas eve. They both went to bed, Ellen expecting lots of toys and Mary none because there were three children in the family, and their mother worked in a restaurant, washing dishes. She got a small sum of money not enough to sup- port one, let alone four. 4 robber broke into Ellen's house that Christmas night. and stole all her toys, because she was selfish He put the toys in a basket and put them on Mary's porch It was morn ong. Mary woke up, thinking of not hav- ing any toys. But toys, clothes, money were now theirs and they were as rich as Ellen. As for Ellen, she had dreamed about the robber, but just the same it taught her a lesson. not to be selfish or it might come true.

An Old F.shi.usa Houss.

Last summer when visiting the coun- try my cousin showed me many interest ing things Most interesting of all was an old fashioned house, situated for back from the side of the road.
 The roof showed many places where the shingles had been blown away by the wind. The walls might have been yell low or white, but now a dull gray. The windows were broken in many places and all the shutters Tapped back and forth on their partly broken hinges A narrow door gave entrance in front and on this was an old fashioned knocker.
 The lawn at one time may have been we'll kept, but now was tall grass, and had overgrown the paths. The wood en fence was old and rotten. The gate was hanging loosely on it's old and rusty hinges. The garden was filled with weeds and the flowers still bloomed, although they had no care. In the midst of all this was an old tree.
 While standing in front of this old homestead I wondered if there was any thing strange connected with it. If children's voices could be heard in the days gone by. What would the walls tell if they could talk of the days gone bu, or if some one was living, what could they tell?
