''Too Wise Wives
With an alI-star cast

The fact that the only woman pro- ducer in the business is sponsoring -@Too Wise Wives and that she is q brilliant business woman is guarantee enough that the play is a good one A small cast rather adds to the at tractiueness of the play, and an inter esting story makes it an unusually pleasing entertainment.
 ''Too Wise Wives" and the title almost tells the story. by the way, is g. decidedly worthwhile screen play. It is coming to the Plaza theater.
 The Cast.
 David Graham --.. Louis CaIhern Marie. his wife -----. Claire Windsor John Da1y Phillips Smalley Sara, his wife ---.- Mona Lisa
 The Story.
 David Graham, although happily married. is sometimes bored by the surfeit of devotion shown him by Ma rte. his pretty wife, who anticipates his every want The excess of Marie's attention occasionally causes David to think of his old sweetheart Sara, now the wife of John Daly, his wealthy friend.
 Sara was the sort of companion who did not mind if David dropped cigar ashes upon her rugs. Unlike Marie, she was not ., perfect house. keeper. Nor did she force herself or her attentions upon David. True, she liked him, but although he was fairly well to do she married John Daly. Daily with his wealth could satisfy her every whiIn.
 However, Sara believed she could win David back. And this she strove to do. She planned to have David visit her when her husband was called away from a. weekend party. But she did not count upon the unexpected appearance of Mrs. Graham in her room at midnight when she had ex- pected a delightful tete-a-tete with David.
 Mss. Graham did not reproach Sara with the fact that she had tried to steal her husband. What she said to Sara will be of interest to all women

They Treat Elm Rough!

Louise Fazenda, Educational Films featured comedienne, has received an interesting letter. in reply to a pub lished query of hers concerning for eign comedies, anent the way our American comedies are treated by foreign exhibitors. The writer, a lady who has travelled much abroad, writes:
 My Dear Miss F,azenda:
 "On one of the main bouIevards in Paris, when I was there not so long ago, saw the announcement of a comedy It was titled Finite a de la voiN, but it was so obviously of you that went in- It was nothing more than a patching together of a lot of old film. With it was a lot of stuff having very little to do with the story. Only the most violent inci- dents had been kept and the tempo took ones breath. I heard one French woman say. How nervous the Americans are!'"
 But apparently all the blame can not be laid to the French. The writer goes on to say: 'I smarted under the injustice of it. That old mui1ated, scratchy film represents to Europeans what we Americans con sider comedy I went regularly to pictures in Paris and my impression in the end was that we have used France as a dumping ground for films that are too poor to be shown here.'

 And when Mrs. Graham had fin ished her talk with Mrs Daly she raised a delecate point of honor be- tween herself and her husband. To settle the matter David Graham wis tied Mrs. Daly in her sittingroom.

Which of Two Girls?

Dear Miss Fairfax:
 I fell in love with a girl a long time ago and we have been about to- gether until six months ago, when we parted owing to frequent disagree ments. A certain young lady from city nearby is madly in love with me now. promised her that I will marry her, but I hardly have any love for her. I can't help thinking of the first girl. My heart belongs to her. S. M L.
 First of all. in justice to every one concerned, you've no right to marry a girl you don't love. And in the second place, I don think much of your strength and self control. Stop being so extravagant in your statements and put a little practice back of your feelings Give up the girl you don't love and make yourself worthy of the girl for whom you care.

ADVICE TO THE
 LOVELORN
The Right Spirit
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.

The Right Spirit Dear Miss Fairfax:
 love a girl dearly, but whenever ask her to go out with me she ob- jects. She says that she likes me as friend (and I know that she thinks of me @ great deal, but only as a friend), but she will not go out to spend a day with me.
 I go to her home often She con- hdes in me, but still she refuses to go out with me.
 ANXIOUS. The girl seems to have fine feel ings. She doesn't want you to spend your money on her. Her friendship doesn't appear to be based on a mer- cenary spirit of seeing what she can get from you. Her friendship is worth cultivating and if you show enough loyalty and understanding you may win a deeper regard

Chinese Were First To Pay Physicians To Keep Them

tAn ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" Some patriarch Of a nearly forgotten age- once uttered these words, and they are revered nowadays as wise ones
 ''Why lock the barn door nov that the mare is stolen?"
 "A stitch in time saves nine."
 Its better to be sure than sorry"
 These are all axioms that are re- spected in the fastest century ever known. They are considered worth needing. And it is right that we SHOULD heed them, for they're food for thought.
 The four quotations above serve to illustrate the point that a little care and thought will oftentimes obviate an unpleasant condition, or, perhaps, a catastrophe.
 The Chinese is reputed to be the oldest civilizat ton in the world. When we proud Americans were crawling around on all fours, they knew the
