The Strand theatre, the original vaude- vile theatre of Norwich, will present for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday four big time B. F. Keith vaudeville acts di- rect from New York and without a doubt they will be the best yet. See a real vaudeville show Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
 Crime, as rule, moves in the same manner as do, epidenlics of dread dis eases. Never completely wiped out. but dormant for a time, and then bursting forth in waves all over the country
 Students of crirninology are generally agreed that behind each crime wave is some Master Mind" who from his se- cret lair inspires and directs the smaller fry of the vast underworld. It was this idea that inspired the writing Of "The Wakefield Case" in which Herbert Raw linson is starred, and which will be shown next week at the Strand theatre. Here is story which not ony has one Master Mind, but three others as well, all scheming and planning to overthrow each other as well as the entire po- lice forces of two continents. Against these sinister forces of the underworld Herbert Rawlinson, in the character of Nell Hartley, modern investigator, matches his nimble wit. The outcome of this battle of the minds gives the 1 Wakefield Case" one continuation oi | thri'is from beginning to end.

The Bartlett Pear

When the soldiers of Julius Caesar introduced the pear tree into Britain, they unwittingly prepared the way for one of the rarest delicacies of the can ming and preserving season. For al- though the thorny sprouts Of Roman times with their small, hard, inedibie fruit gave no promise of what they might bear when grafted upon quince and mountain ash. the pear took to donesticaticn quickly and won with ease Its place in the worlds orchard.
 There is no fruit with quite the same delicate flavor ar the pear. And it has distinctive aroma which no oth- CT preserved fruit can supply. The flavor and aroma of the other variety but it is also firm enough to hold it's shape when packed in glass-Ex- change.

 When that sinuous melody started said one of the actors, during the scenes in the Shiefs tent and in ths hare1n scenes, the Arabian Nights seemed to come to life. I don't know where the music comes from when you consider those funny instruments tom-tom drums, pipes and things some thing like lutes.

Cant Fool Your Blood

Wherever you live, and whatever you do, your blood remains almost at the same heat, though the temperature of the surface of the body will vary considerably.
 Experiments were made with man who remained in a hot-air oven at q temperature Of 270 degrees without any difference being apparent in the heat of his blood.
 Then his arm was put in ice-cold water for half an hour. This, of course cooled the skin, but his flesh was just as warm as when he was in the oven.
 As a final test, his arm was inn mersed for quarter of an hour in wa ter as hot as he could bear 1t but still no change in his temperature was detected.
 The warmeBt part of the surface of the body is that beneath the arfnptt. where the doctor sometimes takes your temperature, instead of putting the thermometer under the tongue,
 The coldest parts are the tips of the nose and ears, which are 16 de- grees colder than the rest of the face.
 Strangely enough, the skin on the left side of the head is warmer than that on the right side.-Exchange.

Calicut, the storm center of the In- dians riots in Mala bar, give a new word to the English dictionary by the cotton stuffs originally exported there and known as "cahco''.
 It was calico from Calicut that caus- ed serious trouble in England two cen- turtles ago, when the Spitafields weav- CTS went about assualting anyone who was wearing the Indian cotton goods, which they feared, not without, reason would injure their own trade.
 Consequently an Act of Parliament was passed forhidding the use. of call ico under penalty of ib20. Nowadays Calicut exports more teak and sandal wood than calico.

WOMEN's WOES
Maysyille Women Are Finding Keller
At Last.

1t does seem that women have more

keep up" must attend to duties in
spite Of constantly aching backs, or
headaches, dizzy spells, bearing-down
pains; they must stoop over, when to
stoop means torture. They must walk
and bend and work with racking pains
and many aches from kidney ills.
Keeping the kidneys well has spared
thousands of women much misery.
Read of a remedy for kidneys only
that is endorsed by people you know.
Mrs. e. L. Cullen, 1922 West Second

ago had an attack of kidney trouble
and my back ached continually. I had

Through the example of the lowly
snail we are to have the principle of
heredity proven to us, now Professor
Harry Champion, of the American
Museum of Natural History, just home
from Polyesia, has brought with him
a. thousand or so specimens of these
little creatures, and declares that they
prove the theory that evolution is the
result of heredity and not of environ
ment. There are large numbers Of
facts given in his proof; but the
thought of the snail sticking true to
his caste through countless genera
tions Is such an attractive one that
details seem unimportant.
