WHAT IS THE ROAD
TO A WOMAN'S HEART?

Many wise people think they
know the road to n womans heart.
The man who has found that road.
and is mean enough to use hts
knowledge to play with the hearts
of his victims. would indeed he a
dangerous human being.
DOROTHY DIX discusses the
subject. saying that II Is alleged
the practitioner OF psychosnalysls
10 a menace because female patients
so often fall In love with him. She
thinks this Is 50, too, because II
gives women an opportunity to
talk endlessly about their secret
thoughts, and TO tear their emo.
tons to tatters to somebody who
will listen because he is paid to do
so.
The one sure road to a woman's
heart has always been through TAX
ing seriously what she thinks she
thinks. That Is whv preachers
make such a hit with the fair sex"
Most men, says the writer, re-
gard women as ornaments, Dlav-
things, servants. and pitch their
conversation on these planes. The
neutrality-suspicious. and the preach
err listen to them and apparently
sympathize with them.
We would seriously like to know
how far women agree with th's
idea. Some OF our many readers
may he able to tell us In hriet
articles.

AN ANALOGY.

Z, There Is a passage In Macaulay
concernii,G the Puritxns which fits
trcsent dry law conditions in q re-
variable manner. The Puritans
bOasted that the unclean spirit was
caat out. Tho kouse was empty
and swept; and for time the ex-
pelled tenant wandered through dry
places, seeking rest and finding
hone. But the force Of the exorcism
was spent. The fiend returned TO his
atpde, and returned not alone. He
took TO him seven other spirits
more wicked than himself. They
entered In and dwelt together. AND
THE SECOND POSSESSION WAS
WORSE THAN THE FIRST"

BATTLING SITUATIONS IN
"HEARTS ARE TRUMPS"

What should man do who lost his
daughter in card game, only to dis
cover that she was secretly married to
an underling, and his honor contemp-
tuously shifted at by the gambler who
won? This fascinatin problem will
be presented in Hearts Are Trumps"
the exciting picture that comes to the
Orpheum Theatre as the feature at
traction for Friday and Saturday of
this week.
Certainly queer situation which
photoplay fans will go to see unrav-
elled.
After Lord Altcar, the father, learns
Of the marriage, he orders Michael
Vain, his forester, dashed by the keep
ers. Vain thinks his wife, Lady Wini-
fred, is responsible and vows revenge.
Twenty years afterwards he succeeds
by becoming wealthy and foreclosing
the mortgage of the manor. Lord Bur-
ford, the man who had won the card
game, now pursues Lady Winifred's
daughter, Dora. He disgraces her by
stealing the half-fnished portrait
painted by her fiance, and having a
nude figure attached to the head. She
is trapped in a Swiss chalet by the
old rogue. The climax comes with
the unexpected action Of money
lender and the arrival of aid in bit
ter snow storm.
The picture is from the celebrated
stage melodrama by Cecil Raleigh,
and is a Metro special all-star pro-
duction. Rex Ingram is the director.
The cast includes Frank Brownlee,
Norman Kennedy, Alice Terry and
Francelia Ellington.

Back with the show are eleven hun
dred people, five hundred and fifty
horses and three hundred wild animals
with nineteen elephants and flock of
ponies swelling the total. The dou-
BILE menagerie will be a treat, indeed,
as will the thrilling wild animal acts,
which form a background for the
three-ring, two-stage circus program
presented by three hundred and eigh-
ty-four European, South American
and American circus stars. The big
top of the show, with its patent grand
stands, which unfold from thirty spe-
cial wagons, seats twelve thousand
people.
