CrandaIIs Metropolitan Mabel
NOrmand in The Slim Princess"

The lively wit that George Ade
wrote into the libretto of The Slim
Princess" as a starring vehicle for
Elsie Janis and Joseph Cawthorn,
has been elaborated and expanded
in the camera versionaof the Orien-
tai satire without the loss OF an
atom of its original laughability.
Capacity crowds at Crandalls Met
rOpolitaR Theater yesterday derived
much merriment from the ridiculous
situations devised by the Hoosier
humorist upon the first presentation
in Washington of The Slim Prin-
cess" in the form of a photo-farce
for the distinctive uses of Mabel
Normand. Those in whose memory
the musical comedy is still fresh
found another element of pleasure
in the adrOit utilization of excerpts
from the tuneful score of the op-
eretta in the orchestration arranged
for the accompaniment of the pic
ture.
The Slim Princess" il will be re-
called. relates the thrilling expert
ences of a young lady of the Turk
ish nobility who is deemed unbeau-
tiful by her countrymen in whose
eyes pounds make pulchritude. Then
comes upon the scene Mr.. Alexander

who falls desperately in love with
the slender beauty.
After a series of cOnvulsing vicis-
situdes that transplant the locale OF
the story TO Washington, D. C., Pike
persuades the Sultan to award him
the honor of his slender daughters
hand thereby opening the way to
matrimony also for the mountainou-
sister, who has been kept in a state
of more or less blessed singleness by
the failure of her half-portion elder

Service. Special Cable Dispatch.)
London, July 25.-No one who lis
tened to the speech of Lloyd George
on the Spa conference in the house
OF commons could fail to realize that
the premier is a tired. sick man.
There is good reason for saying
that he is suffering from acute men
tai fatigue. although his recupera-
tive powers are wonderful. His
friends believe he is endangering his
health by continuous work when he
ought TO have the six months OF
complete rest upon which his ply
sicians have insisted for many
weeks.
During the recess of Parliamen nj
be intended to go to Switzerla nd,
but that playground is too conven-
lent a center for the meeting OF
European statesmen to satisfy his
friends.
Every problem of peacemaking or
peace enforcing, general diplomacy
or domestic politics has TO be dealt
with by the premier. II miners want
more wages he must hear their plea
IL the railway men desire shorter
hours, II is Lloyd George who must
listen TO their case. Every trades
union claims the right to approach
him upon every issue and every
phase of politics.. national and in
ternational. from Poland to Ireland,
is brought to his direct attention
by those interested. Superman as
Lloyd George is, he cannot continue
this pace indefinitely, and his doc
! tors are extremely anxious about
him.
