He comes to me in fancy sweet-my

END OF FAMINE
 REFLECTED BY
 RUSS DANGERS
Opening of Theatrical Season Draws Large Crowds
 New Styles Shown.

MOSCOW, Nov. 1.-The opening of Russia's theatrical season has brought out examples of freak and impressionistic staging and erotic dancing in several theatres, but nev- ertheless the classic Russian ballet, the old style opera, and the drama seem more popular than ever
 Both the. strikineiy new impres- sionistic prAentations and the time honored pallets. however, draw large crowds, and the opening perform ances in the theatres featuring these respective styles were sold out long before the curtains.
 At the NObles Club theatre, where Goleysoysky presented impression istic dancing by dozen or more youths and girls from the kamerny ballet. cubist and spiral structures and ordinary blanks and ladders were used as scenery 10 represent palaces, mountains, pyramids, etc. The dancers, posturinS wierdly to music by Bier. Strauss and Debussy, seemed to be cubist drawings come 10 life.
 When the curtain went up on the first performance of the ballet this year it was evident that the dancers had enjoyed their first year of good feeding since the revolution. All were much bumper, ard some cynics in the audience argued that another civil war might holp their figures. Madame Gcltser. for example. must have put on 20 pounds since last year, but her technique seemed bet ter than ever.
 Along with everything else. prices for theater tickets have scared in Moscow since the close of last sea- son. Formerly obtainablc for the Russian equivalent of about 9 cents. parquet seats this year brought about two dollars at tEe box offices, and from five to fifteen dollars each from spectators.
 The audiences. however, seemed to have no trouble in securing the ne- cessary millions of rublcs, and the opening night crowds were d mixture of proletarian and boursoo;sie thca- ter lovers.

DOUGLAS MACLEAN AT COLISEUM TOMORROW

Innumerable well conceived com edy situations, as unusual as they are laughable, are presented in Douglas MacLeans latest Paramount picture, which comes to the Coliseum Theater tomorrow and Friday.
 The youthful soldier, no longer a rookie, but a seasoned veteran of months at the front, returns to wres- tie with the problems of adjusting himself to the humdrum existence of civilian life. However. he finds that postwar conditions are not as devoid of action and excitement as he had thought. and his fighting blood, reused by household of re- bellious servants, rival for the hand of the young lady of his choice, an adopted father, and other things sup ply him with as much excitement as did ever the trcachcrous Hun.

TOO MUCH MEAT
 HURTS KIDNEYS
Take a Glass of Salts To Flush Kidneys If Bladder Bothers
 You

Eating too much meat may pro- duce kidney trouble in some form or other, says a well-known authority, because the uric acid excites the kidneys, they become overworked :; get sluggish; clog up and cause all ache and misery in the kidney re- zion; rheumatic twinges, severe headaches, acid stomach, constipa- tion, torpid livsr, sleeplessness, blad- der and urinary irritation.
 The moment your back hurts op kidneys aren't acting right, or if the bladder bothers you, get about four ounces of lad Salts from any good pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for few days and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acids of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and has been used for generations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity; also to uculIdllZc tuo dCluS III tHc uTlUo SU it no longer irritates, thus often ending bladder disorders.
 lad Salts cannot injure anyone; makes a delightful effervescent lithia water drink which millions of men and women take now and then to help keep the kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus often avoiding serious kidney disorders.

"WhY TRUST YOUR HuSBAND?" SCORES BIG HIT HERE

A screen farce which kept it's audience in roars of laughter, opened a run at the Palace Theater last evening, when Eileen Percy appeared in her latest William Fox production. "Why Trust Your Husband?" before very representative house.
 Miss Percy. who is noted for her beauty as well as for her talent as a comedienne, never has shown to bet ter advantage than in this clever farce Describing a screen farce is a more or less puzzling tash-and the action in tbis picture surely runs fast, furious and with unceasing hi larity However, most of the fun takes place at a mask ball where husbands and wives get mixed up in most screamingly funny manner.

HAITI EXPECTS
 BUMPER COFFEE
 CR0P;ESTIMATE
Indications that Crop Will Be Largest Exported from
 Haiti in History.

ST MARC Haiti, Nov. L.. There gre indications in plenty hera that he coffee crop which is now being picked and shipped will be the lars- est exported from Haiti in all her history. St. Mare is the center of the coffee growing country and al ready tahe roads and trails are pour ing in a flood of the aromatic berries that find such high favor in West ern Europe. Since the export tax on coffee produces a little more than one-third Of the governments entire revenue. and the coffee exports ave rage tw0-thirds of all HaitiS export trade, the importance of this record breaking crop can be appreciated.
 At the peak of the French regime in Haiti a crop of 74000,000 pounds was exported 10 Europe in 1791. Thirty years later it had dwindled to 29,000,000 pounds as a result of neglect and tho inccssant civil wars following Haiti's independence in 1903. Under Haitian rule it finally climbed in 1880 to 7S.000, ,o00 pounds, but the production was again at low ebb when the United States inter- vened in 1915 Three years later, when American troops had restored order in the island. it reached a to- tal of S0,000,O00 pounds. of SIG, ,500,- 00D declared value, and that year the crop paid 40 per cent Of IIaii's entire revenue.
 The present crop. however. is destined to exceed all previous French. Haitian and American occu- patton figures. and the average price to the peasant will be 9 cents a pound Practically all of the coffee goes to Havre for distribution through France, Belgium. Holland, Germany and Austria, whore it. is uscd in small lots as a grading coffee
 It is worthy of note that practic- ally not dollar of the millions that the new crop will bring to Haiti will go into the pocket of a single Ameri- can, for the coffee industry in Hai,i is wholly in the hands of Haitians. a few French. and small number of mon of mixed blood
 Thcrc is not a single cultivatc1 plautation in Haiti The berries grow semi wild from the old French .days. requiring no irrigation and receiving practically no care.
