IIGHTNIN' AT PARSONS.

Hera1ded by the praises of many To- cal people who witnessed it during it's three years run at the Gaiety theater, New York. "Lightnin'' comes to Par sons theater next week, opening on Monday, Oct. 3.
 With 1291 consecutive performances to it's credit on Broadway, "Lightnin v ranks as the most successful play in the history of the American theater up to the time it was produced. The long run record, held by "A "Trip to China town,' was 657 performances.
 'Lightnin' " is serious and humor- ous by turns, with a 1ovable, shiftless old hero who reminds one of Joseph Jefferson's "Rip Van Winkle.'' The outstanding type is embroidered on a backbone background introducing contrasting characters of the same breezy, wholesome sort that made the earlier John Golden success, Turn tc the Right thing of joy and beauty

CLARA KINIBALL YOUNG
 AT THE PALACE

That Clara KimDaI Young is a
 screen actress whose art attains new
 heights with each successive vehicle,
 instead of exhausting her versatility
 a fact that is sadly true of so many
 other motion-picture stars, is brought
 home with telling force in her latest
 six-reel production, Straight From
 Paris" whose director is Harry Gar
 son and whose author is Sada Cowan,
 one of the new feminine screen writ
 flesh and-blood experience of married life.
 The action of Straight From Paris is in tune with it's environment. Set in
 the gaiety and whirl of high society life, the plot starts off with a bristling romance in which the cross-currents of human passion and jealousy are painted to a fault. The story of this sparkling love-intrigue centers about
 the adventures of an unassuming mill iner in the person of Lucette Grenier the part played 60 perfection by Miss Young. Despite her humble call ing, she is thrown, by dint of her per sonal charm, into the most aristocratic circles of the Partisan salons, and from that moment magnetizes the at tentions of the grandees of high so- ciety The thrilling love episodes that pursue our pretty heroine and their novel developments form an exciting | and scintillating tale that holds the spectators interest from beginning tC | end.
 Be sure you see it at the. Palace | Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.

AT LYCEUM.

For Bert Lytell the silent drama has become silent in name only. In his latest Metro picture, 'The Man Who," a Maxwell production showing ot the Lyceum theater the first three days of nex week, the gifted star does n ore public speaking than many a successful campaigner. The star was called upon to barefoot it about the streets making soap box speeches against the shoe trust. Although the camera does not record the voice, it dues show the muscular movement of the throat in such detail as to re- qUire real speaking when such is call ed for in the story. As a consequence Bert opened the well springs of his oratory and literally took the hide of the shoe trust ''The Man Who" is from the Saturday Evening Post story ny Lloyd Osborne. Also The Hoyt Revue players open their fourth sue cessful week during their engagement Il this city. They will present a new
 musical farce. Nothing is repeated that has been before. New scenery and costumes and some new faces, in cluding the most popular man, Jack Sheehan.

MY MARRIAGE PROBLEMS

ones within his with an apparently ferVent pressure But l have seen him give exactly the same greeting to many women, in the years since I married him, some attra active, some distinctly the opposite, some positive studio freaks. I knew that it meant absolutely nothing but his instinctive reading of the vanity of the women he had thus greeted. And I also caught humorous, half-dismayed lifting of his eyebrows across Bess Deans unconscious head a marital signal, whlch meant: 'Whatever shall we do with her?"
 It was not with Dicky's reactions that I was concerned just then, but with Bess Deana I was curious to see how she took Dickys greeting of her, and my opinion of her acuteness mounted several degrees as I saw that she recognized it's exact worth.
 she tipped her head saucily to one side and surveyed him with a quizzical glance.
 You're quite overpowered aren't you?" she said, with a malicious little smile. Do you think you can stand the happy shock of knowing
 
 I can find some one to take me?''
 Two weeks," Dicky echoed. ''This is too much-happiness,' he finished, after a mischievous pause. But let us not stand here for all the yokels to gaze at our blissful reunion. Prithee, come with me to wonder seat beneath the forest monarch and relate to me the tale of your ad- ventures and conquests since I saw you last Good wife" loftily to me, with what was intended as an imita- ton of a mediaeval husband, Twill you not see to rest and refreshment for our guest?'
 I swept him a courtesy as he ushered Miss Dean to a rustic chair on the side lawn. Iund the resent ment which I felt rising in my throat was in no whit animated hy his exa ggerated courtesy to the girl, but by the fact that Dickylike, he had distinctly passed the buck'--in his own vocabulary-to me, of the vexed question of adn.i oting Bess Dean to the Cosgrove circle of .'select paying guests.

CHILD TRAINING IN THE
HOME AND HABIT FORMATION

oIive Roberts. University Montana
Mothers are often heard to say. INV
children have such untidy habits, and
don't seem to be able TO break t.,.m
talk all day long. and II doesn't do
any good"
No mother needs to endure her chill.
dren's untidy habits. or any other nm.
desirable habits. II she goes abon,
training in the right way. and is wilI.
ing to take n little trouble to carry Il
out. Four simple rules based on ,sy.
chology. many serve to give such
mothers an insight into the means q,
forming right habits. II carried cut
faithfully. these rules cannot fail n
produce results.
First. decide for yourself what r: II
you wish to form. Then start enthus:
astically and determinedly to bre,k
the old and launch the new one. Saw
to your children, beginning today. v q
are all going to hang up our wraps.
ana put our books and rubbers in the
proper places when we come home
from school. Let's see who remembers
every time. and doesn't have to have
Mother tell her once about IT," Arouao
as much enthusiasm as you can about
the matter. Be careful that you do
not start to break and form anew too
many habits at one time. Select one
or two habits to work on. and keen Mt
them until you are reasonably sure
that they are well fixed Then start
on another
second, permit no exceptions to oc.
cur after you have once started. No
matter how good the Intentions of tbe
children are, they will lapse into the
old ways after n few days. That ,s
when you VIII have to work. You will
find that eternal vigilance on your
part will be the price of your chm.
dren's good habits. When Mary comes
nome In hurry to 20 out to play. she
VIII throw her books ou the nearest
chair. Don't say. "Oh, well, she ia IN,
tie. and 1t is hard to remember all tho
time. I'll let II go this time" That 10
where you will fail. Even though MARY
hns already gone away to play. sbe
should be called back Immediately and
told In kind manner, "You forgot
your books today Put them away. ana
then you may go to play" One or two
experiences OF that kind will soon
make Mary more careful.
Third. repeat the desirable action ma

HAS AMERICA NO ANSWER
FOR THIS GERMAN THREAT?

While men talk about disarmament

In the next war leaders will laugh
at battleships and artillery when they

we have been practising longest. Seize
every occasion to perform the act
which you wish to become habit and
its acquisition will come all the sooner
Last of all, act don't talk. AS Pro-
lessor James says. in his Talks to
Teachers, Don't preach too much or
abound in good talk In the abstract"
When Mary throws her coat on the
floor and her rubbers in the middle of
the hall, don't tell her that nice little
girls don't do those things. or that
she is a careless girl and should know
better, and a great deal more to that
effect. Simply call her as soon as you
discover what she has done. and tell
her quietly and good-naturedly to put
her things away Immediately and then
see that she does it. Such treatment
as this is far more effective than mere
talking
