CertQin-teed

THE heaviest item in the
cost of painting is the labor.
Certain-teed lessons this cost
because the high quality ma
terials in it are so thoroughly
ground and mixed that il
spreads easier and has greater
hiding power.
Certain-teed also covers more
surface per gallon. 1t requires
fewer coats to properly pro-
tect. II retains its color and
beauty for longer period of
time.
All Of these advantages are

ELIOT ACCUSES DOCTORS
Harvard Educator Declares Multi
tudes Prescribe Alcohol For Pain


tudes Prescribe Alcohol For Pain.
Boston, Oct. 31.-The statement that
multitudes of physicians are yielding
TO the temptation to prescribe alcohol
in order to get high fees was made
by President Emeritus Charles w.
Eliot, of Harvard University, in an
address before the Twentieth Century
Club.
Pointing out that "a considerable
class of reputable physicians now
base their charges on the supposed in
come of the patient" he continued:
"Physicians are constantly invited
by patients of their own, and by out
siders to prescribe alcohol. If that
appeal is made to men in the habit
Of basing their charges on the income
of the patient, you see what tempta-
ton is presented to the physician.
Multitudes of physicians are yield
ing to that temptation"
DIR. Eliot said the problem of assur-
ing enforcement of prohibition rested,
for its solution, upon the need of a
considerable weight of public opinion.
He said testimony of employees in re-
gard to "the good effect of prohibition
on their working farces" ought to be
collected and published, and that
there should be also a collection and
compilation of testimony by district
nurses, social workers, and others,
to "the improvement brought about
by the prohibition movement in the
families of the working people"

WfIkes-Barre, Pa, Oct. 31.-What is
considered one of the most mysteri-
Gus mine fires in this section for many
wears occurred at the Hollenback No.
cuIliery Of the Lehigh and Wilkes
Barre Coal company. but few blocks
from the central part of the city.
The fire was discovered by William
Williams. u pump runner employed in
the Baltimore vein of the mine, 100
feet below the surface. He noticed
clouds of smoke passing the vein and
teleDhOncd the engineer at the head
of the shaft, who sent in the alarm
To the city department. When the
nature Of the fire was determined Il
general alarm brought every piece Of
fire apparatus in the city to the scene.
Within a short time flames were
shooting from the shaft to the top Of
The tower extending high above the
opening to the mine. While the fire
men worked with all possible speed to
cut off the current of air by covering
the entrance to the shaft with large
stripe Of sheet iron, rescue squads
equipped Will every odh't VI tHtlS ~
to locate four men at work in the
mine
After two hours search three of the
men were found to have made their
way To the surface through Il slope
extending from the shaft at the en-
trance to the Baltimore vein to the
surface about 1000 feet from the open
ing of the shaft proper.
Had the fire occurred on day when
fhc mines were in operation the loss
of life would have been great. But
this was mitchell day, when practi-
rally every man employed in the an

How can women who are weak and

of healthy children? Their first duty is
to themselves. They should overcome
the arrangement or debility that IS

the entire system, as did Mrs. Jansen,
by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-

in a position to give their children the
blessing of a good constitution.

-Four HOrSemen by
Ibanez on Screen
Private Showing Here on
Thursday = Author in Nice
to See Picture Same Time.

Metros perturbation of Vincente
Biasco Ibanez's novel. THE Four Horse
men of the Apocalypse" will be ex-
hibited for the first time in New York
on next Thursday night at special pri-
vate showing at the Ritz-Carlton. An
audience, including prominent literary
men. artists, publishers. newspaper and
magazine editors and reviewers. and no.
tables of the film industry. is expected to
attend the showing.
At the same time they are viewing this
record breaking photoplay. Mr.. 1banez,
the Spanish author of 'The -Four Horse
men," also will see his book for the first
time in pictures. One of the first prints
was sent by special messenger recently
to Mr.. Ibanez, who now is in Nice. and O.
private showing for him and a group OF
literary friends will be held there next
Thursday evening when the Ritz-Carlton
showing takes place.
During the latter part of this month
"The Four Horsemen," which is Rex
Ingram production from screen adap-
tation by Miss June Mathis, will have its
public showing at a Broadway theatre.
Both Mr.. Ingram and Miss Mathis ac-
companied the first finished print to New
York from Metros West Coast Studios
few weeks ago. and they will remain
here for the metropolitan premiere.
Ibanez's novel now has passed Its
160th edition. and it's readers in this
country alone numbers fore than TO-
100000 persons. Metros film version of
the book was six months In the making.

MRS. FISKE AS AN AUTHOR.
Wrote Plays and Books for Three
Years After She Was Married.

Few persons know that Mrs. Flske.
who can interpret characters so intel
ligently on the stage, can also create
them. for she Is writer as we'll as an
actress.
For three years after her marriage
Mrs. Fiske retired from the stage. She
did not, however, lead n life of leisure,
for she devoted herself to literature, and
during that time she wrote books and
plays All Of her plays were success
fully produced. Among them were ''The
Rose" played by the late Felix Morris
mot Guilty" accepted by the Kendalls;
"Fontanelle," played by the late James
O'Neill. and Countess Roudina," written
in collaboration with Paul Kester.
But Mrs. Fiske, who as Minnie Mad
dern had been on the stage since she was
three years old. found that the public
would not permit her TO retire perma-
nently. SO. after thoroughly demon-
strating that she could write and had
made a new marekt for her talents. she
went back to the stage.
Doubtless her creative ability has
much to do with the fact that she can
play so many different and contrasting
roles with such distinction. She now has
the part of Marion Blake in Wake Up,
Jonathan" a Sam H. Harris production
at the Henry Miller Theatre.

Parted by Shell
in War, Meet Here
Movie Writer, Seeking Thrill
ing Story, Finds One While
Dining in Hotel.

While Ralph Spence, motion picture
writer, and friend who draws pay for
motions of some kind in the picture
business were foollng around town the
other night looking for food and a pos
sible story they got the story and for
got the food. They happened in at the
Hotel Navarro. where Toscanini's mu-
sicians were stopping while the orches-
ira was playing here.
At one Of the tables the movie men
observed a man in a reverie-evidently
musician-who was waiting for food
he had ordered. Then appeared waiter
with a large. heavily laden tray and
the head waiter directed him to the
man in a reverie. The walter ap-
preached the table, the thoughtful diner
looked up and there followed a crash
of tray and dishes on the floor. The
waiter had dropped them as he made a
wild leap for the diner. exclaiming:
"Arturol Arturo! Is it you? Are
you 'alive7"
"Carlo!" cried the other. rising from
his chair and overturning the table.
With more exclamations the two en-
braced and kissed each other on the
chee/s.
Hearing the crash of dishes and wild
Roman exclamations, p. B. Weissinger,
dining room. The diner tore the apron
from the waiter.
"Sit down. !" he exclaimed. You
are my guest you dine with me-"
Us it new way of tipping q waiter
or something?" inquired Weissinger.
1t was too much for the scenarist- He
walked over to Fuente's table and gave
himself a hearty welcome. The diner
proved to be Arthuro de Fuente Of Tos-
canini's orchestra.
This is my friend, my chum, Carlo
Scola. of Naples" said Fuente. appa-
rently glad to find some one upon whom
he could pour out his story. 1--WE were
on the Piave together; we fought side
by side through the war until shell
separated us. They told me Carlo was
dead they had left him In a trench as
dead, and now he Is here-alive, and
dining with me-"
Himself almost round shouldered from
carrying medals bestowed upon him for
heroism in the world war, he told of the
bravery of Scola, the waiter. Scola. he
said, had once been one of Italy's most
promising tenors. A gas bomb and a
wound in the throat had stified his OPP
cratic ambitions forever.

AS for the rumors that the McLeans
were going to give q ball that night
there Is no definite announcement as TO
the ball. but I understand that they
have cards out for q big Inauguration
night dinner. and 1t seems quite natural
that a ball should follow. But that's a
long way ahead. and meanwhile balls
are simply raining down on US here and
now.
It's simply out OF the question to tell
you all that's going on. Mrs. John Hays
Hammond gave perfectly delightful
dinner dance Monday night for kath-
crime Mackay. The next night Mrs.
Charles Boughton Wood had the dance
she has been promising all winter for
her most attractive niece and namesake,
Antoinette Graves, who has returned
from Paris to spend the winter with her.
Miss Graves was a guest at delightful
young peoples dinner Wnich Mr.. WOOD
gave that night for another niece, Miss
Alice Emo. from New Jersey. who is a
house guest-the entire party going over
to Mrs. Woods for the dance.
Mrs. Dimock had dinner and a dance

pretty excuse. Mrs. Baker told me she
was going to 1t, after having received
informally as usual Wednesday after
noon and having entertained-as very
unusual--at dinner in honor of Gen.
Pershing in the evening.
Several of the Cabinet women had
their final at homes this week--and one
missed Mrs. Lansing's pleasant custom
of getting them all together to receive
with her and close the season In a blaze
Of glory on the last Wednesday before
Lent. Mrs Colby didn't do that-though
she did receive herself. So did Mrs
Daniels. who had taken Wednesday of
last week off to make a few Cabinet calls
herself. 1t is really rather narrowing to
realize that these pleasant human women
that we have all been such good friends
with for anywhere from one to eight
years are definitely to be eliminated from
Washington society-and the Cabinet
calling of the last week or two has been
almost funereal when one stopped to
think.
