SEASONS MOST
EXPENSIVE PLAY
HERE TUESDAY,

The most expensive photoplay Of
the season at the Colonial will be
presented at the popular theatre to-
day. 1t may not have cost as much
as some to produce, but to secure it
for showing in Augusta has meant
an outlay of big bunch of money by
Manager Appleby. It is the national
success "A Yellow Typhoon" with
Anita Stewart in the leading roles,
for she essays double character and
does it in way that has fairly
startled the motion picture world.
1.-THE Yellow Typhoon'' is a story of
the gay lights around the world, of
two sisters, one who is willing to go
to any ends to crafty her desires and
the other who is fighting for her sis
ter and her country. Miss Stewart
appears in both characters. The play
Is staged with sumptuousness and
variety Of setting rarely If ever seen
In any motion picture.-Adv

ADJUSTMENTS
DON'T NEED TO
PLAY POKER TO EN-
JOY FULL HOUSE"

A full house is d poker term, if the
initiated are not familiar with the
fact. But one doesn't have to be q
poker player or know anything about
poker to enjoy "A Full House," the
latest Paramount picture with Bry-
ant Washburn in the star role which
will be seen at the Colonial theatre
today. This famous stage play by
Fred Jackson has been scenarioized
in way to make it go across even
better than it did behind the foot
lights. 1t is about the snappiest
thing in which Washburn has yet ap-
peared. With Lois Wilson playing
opposite him and company Of ex-
ceptional ability. the farce comedy is
sure to be as much of a riot of fun
here as it has in other cities.
The theme is a rollicking story
dealing with a mix-up which results
when a husband of a day goes on a
business trip witch involves him in
complications including love letters,
stolen jewels, thieves and policemen.
The settings for the play and the
photography are remarkable in them
selves.
Training for Husbands" is the
title of a two-reel comedy that is sure
to go big today while the Burton
Holmes Travelogue and the kino-
grams will be as popular as ever

SOME BOOK
ALL u. S. LAWS

Lawrence, Kan, Jan. 15--ReVlslon or
all the laws of the United States into
a single volume of more than 100000
words, making the largest law book in
existence, was undertaken and car
ried through by two Kansans. The
book is indexed
Acceptance of the work is now before
the United States Senate. 1t was ap-
proved by the House in a bill passed
Dec. 20.
The last revision of the federal stat
utes was made in 1878. For years the
legal profession has been clamoring for
fresh revision.
The task proved to be huge. The
material began with the revised edition
Of 1878 and ran through 90 other large
volumes. the statutes at large, contain
ing laws enacted since that time up 10
March 4. 1918.
The work of revision consisted of
arranging all statutes of a general
and permanent nature under common
heads or titles. cutting out all obsolete
matter. rewriting head notes, and con-
solidating paragraphs.
Existing law was preserved in
general Encouragement, codification and
revision.
The task was carried out by the
House committee on revision of the
laws. For many years the work of
this committee has been little more
than nominal, but when Congressman
E. c. Little of the Second Kansas Dis
trict became chairman in March,
1919, he proposed revising the federal
laws and publishing Them in one vol.
ume.
The committee. composed of a dozen
eminent judges and lawyers, gave its
hearty approval. In the following
June DIR. William L. Burdick, profess
scr of law and vice chancellor of the
University of Kansas, was appointed
reviser Of the statutes.
From then on until its completion last
month. DR.. Burdick was busted with

Gov. Parkhurst's
Condition Favorable

The condition of Governor Frederic
Fl. Parkhurst was announced Sunday
evening to be about the same. his pro-
gress toward recovery continuing very
favorabiy.
Gilbert r. Chadbourne, private Sec
rotary to Gov. Frederic H. Parkhurst,
Saturday gave GU the following state
ment concerning the illness and present
condition of the Governor:
Governor Parkhurst, who was TAX
en- suddenly ill last Tuesday forenoon,
first complained of a difficulty with
his tongue which he likened to the
effect of sharp blow. At noon he
was unable to swallow because of the
condition of his tongue. Early in the
afternoon he consulted DR.. r. H.
Stubs of Augusta, who was called to
the Executive Chamber. DR.. Stubs
found that the Governor had a high
temperature and advised immediate
return to his room at the Augusta
house. Before leaving the State House,
the Governor had q severe chill.
AT p. NJ, Gov. Parkhurst was at
his room at the hotel and having de-
veloped high fever he was put to
bed The infiammatory condition be-
meath his tongue became extremely
acute, and was accompanied by in
increased swelling, but with no throat
| infection apparent.
Mrs. Parkhurst, who had been called
arrived from Bangor at II P. NJ, with
DR.. w. L. Hunt, the family physician,
DR.. o. w. Turner of Augusta was
! called and DR.. Hunt on arrival imme-
diately called DR.. II. T. Clough of
Bangor, who arrived at $50 O'Clock
" ednesday morning.
Diagnosis indicated a diphtheretic
| infection under the tongue, and, with
out waiting to confirm by cultural
| test, it was decided to give massive
doses of anti-toxin, and they were ad-
ministered within the next hours.
The Governor responded splendidly
to the heroic treatment. and the con-
(! sulting physicians join in the state
ment that the Governors splendid
| physical condition and the prompt adj
| ministering of very large doses of anti
toxin are together responsible for the
rapid recovery from such a serious at
| tack.
AT O'Clock, Thursday morning, the
State Department of Health reporting
on the culture taken from the tongue
confirmed the diagnosis of the ply
sicians of diphtheretic infection.
! Through the day Thursday the Gov
| ernor's condition continued to improve,
although he suffered severely from the
swollen and inflamed condition of his
tongue. Late Thursday he was able to
swallow small amounts of liquid nour-
ishment and Thursday night was more
comfortable. In Friday his nourish-
ment was increased and his condition
continued to improve. Saturday after
noon his family and physicians were
gratified by his Improvement and pros
pect of rapid and complete recovery"
