This is the central thought OF kath-

A. M. Williamson. This picture will
be shown on the screen OF the Rex

Role of Lifetime.
Never in Miss MacDonald's career
has she been afforded role with the
romantic and dramatic possibilities
that come to her as the convent girl
warned aforehand to beware Of the
alluring resort and reminded OF the
memory of a chum who had three
years before fled from the convent to
become lost in the maze Of gambl-
er's passion.
1t is in the strange meeting with
the mysterious runaway girl that the
Messrs. Williamson have provided a
climax for their great plot. Pledged
to secrecy, Mary Grant takes upon
herself the disgrace that accompanied
the strange fate of the missing girl. "

REssrE BARRISCALE IN
"A WOMAN WHO UNDERSTOOD

Ressie Barriscale is a lively mar
ried woman fighting to keep away
from her husband the influences
which are putting wrong ideas In his
head in "A Woman Who Under
stood" her latest Robertson-Cole Su.
uerior picture, which will be seen at
the Elko theatre the last time TO-
night. In this story, which was writ
ten by Isabelle Johnston, Miss Bar
riscale was directed by William
Parke.
It appears when Madge Graham
(the character Miss Barriscale plays)
left Greenwich village with her musl-
clan husband, whom she met there,
that the husband carried along some
foolish ideas about a "soul mate
whom he begins to need, he thinks,
when the burdens of married life ana
bringing up children begin to weigh.
So the former "Village" girl hnds
herself opposing a wealthy meddle-
some woman who is trying TO give
the husband the sympathy which
she whispers to him he needs. And
the former villager acquits herself In
fine womanly fashion, making great
sacrifice for her husband, and show
ing him that her heart is in the right
place. Miss Barriscale does a re-
markable piece Of acting in "A Wo-
man Who Understood" one which
will win her new friends, and which
will be eagerly received by the ar
dent Barriscale admirers.

SCIENCE QUESTIONS ABILITY
OF WOMEN TO EXPERIENCE
EMOTION OF GENUINE LOW


After every other science has taken
a whack at the fallacy of many cher
ished traditions, along comes psy-
chology, the newest of recognized
sciences and declares that the one
feeling which everyone fondly be-
lieves comes to every one once in a
lifetime is not really love att all.
They declare that the feeling which
sends men and women rushing to the
marriage license window is almost
any other emotion except that OF love,
and in fact even go farther by saying
that it is almost impossible for per-
son to inspire real love in person
of the opposite sex
Naturally these psychologists give
reasons tending to prove that they
are correct They point out that love
is marked by two main characteristics
generosity and sacrifice. They de-
clare that the average engaged couple
are insanely jealous Of each other,
suspicious of every unexpected alb
sence selfish in the extreme, and pos
sessed of practically every emotion
which is foreign to real love. Most
marriages, they claim are based upon
infatuation, proved by the fact that
after few months of married life
carresses and kisses between man and
wife become perfuncto:y.
Love impossible to Women.
Some of them dare to express the
opinion that love is impossible 10 wo-
men, that they arc fundamentally I'M
fit to contain such IN emotion. They
declare that in all history there is
not a single case IF pure 1--we be-
tween two women, Or even between a
man and woman, while almost every
country has stories based upon the
devotion o. men to each other.
Damon and Pythias, is cited as one
example. and they declare that miner
cases of absolutely unse1tish devo-
ton between men are too frequent to
need discussion. For proof they ask
you to speak to any soldier about
"buddies' III their company during
the great war.
Whetha' by design or not D w.
Griffith in his latest production for
the screen has shown how natural
such devotion between men really is.

Lewis Edison Waterman and his inven-
ton, Waterman's Ideal Fountain Pen, to
this list of world benefactors
The history of Waterman'S Ideal Foun-
tain Pen has peculiar personal interest
for the people of Illinois because she can
rightly claim Lewis Edison Waterman as
one of her sons.
As a child, he came with his mother
and younger brother and settled in Kan
kakee and it was in the little old wagon
shop, conducted by his brother Elisha S.
Waterman that the first model of Water
mans Ideal Fountain Pen was turned out
in wood
Back in those old days, the gold pen
and understanding industries were To-
Gated wholly in the East, requiring that
the business of fountain-pen making be
carried to the source of supply, and so in
the smallest possible way the L.. E. Water
man Companys business was established
in New York Mr. L. E. Waterman
made his principal headquarters in New
York up to the time of his death, while
his brother, Elisha S Waterman, assumed
the interest of the Company in the West
for the short time he lived The Chicago
office was opened at the same time the
business was started in New York, and
for many years was conducted in the most
raodest circumstances.

The world has always taken an I'M
usual interest in inventors, probably be-
cause it recognizes that inventors, as a
rule, are unselfsh and that whatever re-
ward they may gain through their inven-
ton has to be a by-product of a greater
service or saving of time and labor to his
millions of fellow men and women.
Howe invented the sewing machine
but the whole world enjoys the benefit OF
it, Likewise is the case with Morse and
the telegraph; Bell and the telephone
Edison and the electric light; Fulton and
the steamship.
There is no use trying to arrange them
in the order of their importance in the
world to-day because to deprive us of
any one of them, even for the briefest
of periods, would amount to almost a
calamity
