BETTY OF GREYSTONE' BE-
LIEVED IN BEING A PAL
TO HER HUSBAND.-TOPIC

Dorothy Dix and other interesting
women writers who are fond OF giving
advice to girls Of how to make sue
cess of their marriage would thorough
ly approve of Betty of Greystone,'
the Triangle play, in which Dorothy
Gish and Owen Moore are stars, which
will be seen at the Topic theater today.
In this Betty, the role played by
Dorothy Gish, shows herself true pal
to her husban dwhen he shows up be-
fore the minister with blacq eye as
they are about to be married. Instead
of swooning or becoming indignant and
asking him "How dare he?" she seeks
some means of giving him relief. The
only means she can think of is cold
steel and she delays the ceremony
while she gets the remendy and then
has the ceremony proceed in that fash
ion, until the bridegroom tried to fit
her finger with the cold steel" which
in this instance happends to be dan
gerous knife.
"Betty of Greystone" was directed
by Allan Dwan and is accounted one
of the best efforts of that able di-
rector.

CONSTANCE TALMADGE IN
SINNER-HUN ROLE

If you think it's the easiest thing in
the world to be wicked you should
see Constance Talmadge in "In Search
of a Sinner" her latest production
adapted by John Emerson and Anita
Loos and distributed by First National
Exhibitors Circuit, which will begin
a two-day's engagement at the Palace
theater today.
Georgiana wanted to find wicked
man in the worst way And when
she thought she had landed one, he
turned out to be member of "The
Purity league" and had too much
honor to ever betray the wife of his
best friend. But what it took to make
a wild man out Of a tame one, Geor-
giana had. And when it came time to
make tame one out Of wild one
she was likewise on the job.
The only thing Georgiana couldn't
do was to find real sinner. But it
wasn't a real sinner she wanted, after
all.

purchasing power Of the dollar.
When I was a boy or young man
farm lands were very, very cheap.
and so were all farm products. also
labor was cry cheap, with long

that I bought good rich land in Wis

and sold it for the same price be-
cause I thought it to be a poor in
vestment, and that lane or lands Of
no more value are selling now in
Wisconsin from one hundred to two
hundred dollars per. acre.
Farm the Factory.

the factory also. There was no Big

yards; no large slaughtering or pack

A travelling man in the small town
was a curiosity. as! there were few

scarce, as was the travelling men and
the farmers handled but very little
of what there was; and, say, do yoy
know farmers had no check books ir
those days? They used farm prod:
