ON the Harold Lloyd picture
Now or Never" how was the scene
made where Lloyd was shown run
ming at break neck speed on the
roof of a train?
A-Harold really did not en-
danger his life by running along on
top of a train at a man o. war
speed He did actually run over the
roofs Of the cars but at a safe pace.
The illusion of tremendous speed was
created by turning the crank of the
camera much slower than the or
binary rate of IL pictures per sec
oud. " heu the film was shown at
the standard rate of speed the action
of course was greatly speeded uD
which made Lloyd appear 10 run at
an almost impossible clip. This is
one of the commonest tricks of the
trade.
Q.-Vho are TheodoTa Goodman
and Mrs Charles =. Brabin"
A-They are both Theda Bara.

hundred years Think how mans work has been light
ened-how he do ten times as much his grand
father at half the effort
But stop-think how the farm home has practically
stood STILL so far conveniences concerned. For
all these women's work not lghtened. This
is positively shameful black mark against American
agriculture.

FIRE IN PAINT SHOP,
NEARBY ENGINES
OUT, Loss $4,000
Forced to Relay Calls for
Apparatus as E. j. Muir
ply Co. Place Burns.

Fire originating In pile of waste
in the basement Of the Z. J. Muir
ply Company, Inc, dealers in
paints, oils and glass, at 7Io Twelfth
street northwest, did damage esti-
mated at about $4,000. The blaze
was caused by spontaneous COM
bustion. It is believed by hre on
cials.
An alarm was sent to Engine
Company No. 2, which is located dI-
rectly across the street, but owing
to the fact that the apparatus from
that company was still working on
the fre in the Commerce building,
Nineteenth and Pennsylvania ave-
nue. northwest, II was necessary TO
relay the call to other companies.
The blaze had gained considerable
headway before the arrival of the
companies.
Owing to the dense smoke which
filled the second floor of the build
ing. used as an offlce and storeroom,
a stream was played there. II was
discovered soon that no FIRE was To-
Gated there, but that the blaze was
confined to the basement, used only
for storing purposes.
The Gre was discovered by Will
liam H. Miller, special policeman
and watchm&n for several mer-
chants in that section.
