Cook had barely passed the teen stage
when his reIiiarkable soprano voice

ARCADE TODAY
"TROUBLENIAKERS" ENDS
ITS run HERE TONIGH

With torights performance the
successful engagement Of William
Farnum in the Fox photodrama
The Joyous Trouhlemakers," at the
Arcade Theatre, comes to an end.
A great majority of film lovers are
William Farnum fans, and make a
point of seeing every picture in which
this star appears. THE Joyous
Troublemakers' adds one more great
success to Farnum's long list of mo-
tion picture triumphs. In many ways
his Characterization OF William Steele
is one of the best things he ever has
done. in spite of the fact that it is a
very different sort Of role from any in
which he has been seen recently.
The story is fresh and bright. II
lives up to its merry title. But it is
not all laughter; the tears that some
times lie behind a smile have their
place. for it is a story Of love and gold
both dangerous things.

TUESDAY.


Hanging over the tubs in her laun-
dry, Mrs Hooper kept a card upon which
Roger had typewritten the directions for
removing common stains from clothes,
such as those from grass. rust coffee or
paint, and on nearby shelf she always
kept the remedies. u this way she had
saved many garments. In the wash to-
day she found one Of Rogers handker-
chiefs upon which he had spilled ink.
This she put TO soak In milk for a couple
of hours and washed it with soap while
the milk still remained on the spot, and
when she had finished no sign Of the
discoloratiOn remained.
As It was still very cold out Of doors,
she put a handful of salt IN the rinsins
water to keep the clothes from freezing
when they were hung out on the line to
dry. When she made her bluewater she
added just a little common salt 10 it as
It helps to distribute the color more even
" and prevents the clothes from looking
streaky or patchy. One OF the secrets
Of Mrs HoOper's economy In the mat
ter Of clothes is that she impresses upon
her family that Il is absolutely neces-
sary, except I'm the case Of a possible
accident for them to prevent any OF
their garments from becoming very dirty,
and that frequent changes are more eco
nominal than to wear them until they are
over soiled.
She heightened the life Of her own
stockings, by rinsing them out In warm
water every night and hanging them
where they would be quite dry in the
morning By stuning a little wad OF
newspaper into the feet she found that
the water was absorbed quickly, and
assured the certainty Of their being dry
enough TO wear when she needed them
She never had quantities Of extra clothes
on hand.
Her method was rather to keep things
properly replaced by the few reserve gar
ments that she purchased at bargain
sales. and whichl when put into service
were replaced in her emergency chest w
Just the things she had removed. This
check on the supply and condition of the
greater part OF the clothes Of the family
was made on washday. when something
was always being tubbed for the last
time

stew for dinner she prepared II imme-
diately after luncheon. 1t was made from

1t has been the history of most places
where the white man has come in and
taken charge that he lorded it over the
natives. This is not true so far as ma
tive Fijians are concerned. Under the
treaty by which the British took over
the islands certain rights were always
to belong to the native and the Fijian
is very quick to maintain them. He is
kept in order by police of his own race
and white man who undertook to chas-
tse a Fijian would quickly discover that
the natives themselves would resent it
and that British law and justice would
not uphold the white man who tried to
take the law into his own hands
Fijian women are not the slaves that
women OF other savage races usually
prove TO be. As a matter of fact, there
isn't much work to be done around 4

Q. Can you tell me to whom the word.
"Dutchman" refers, whether Germans or
Hollanders? E. W. E.
A. The term "Dutchman" correctly
speaking, refers only to the citizens OF
the Netherlands or Holland. In the
United States the word is frequently ap-
piled to the Germans, probably due to
confusion with the word, "Deutch,' which
is German word for German.
