MoIlere'. Trusted Adviser.

Recent diggings in the social life of France in the Seventeenth century have led to the discovery of some in- teresting information about Mile. Hon. cree te Bel de Bussy, a granddaughter of Adam Blackwood, a lawyer of Poitiers, of Scotch origin, who was Moliere's intimate friend in Paris when he was writing his masterpieces.
 The literary excavator is M. Emile Magne, the well-known French critic, and he has found that Moliere first met Mile. de Bussy at the house of her uncle in Paris, and that 1t was the famous Ninon de Lenclos probably who introduced her to him. She be- came his most valuable and trusted literary adviser. Each play was read to her before it was put on the stage, and her verdict was always accepted as decisive by the author, and invari- ably indorsed by the great public. This was so even with that daring experiment "L'Avare," for though 1t was coldly received on Its first per formance 1t won a great triumph on its revival year later.

In that city we also visited Christ church, and sat in the same pews which were once occupied by George Washington and Robert F Lee, the Confederate general. In Georgetown we saw the. house in which Washington resided while he and Major r Enfant were laying out the city of Washington.

LENTEN REFLECTIONS

As the ripple follows the ship at
 sea,
 So the love of the Father will follow
 thee.
 Lent is good time for heart searching, Do you pay so much at tention to form that you have no time for function? Do you perform your daily tasks in a spirit of resent ment or of devotion and consecra- ton? Do you ever do anything for the sheer sake of making someone else happy, or do you take your part grudgingly, from a sense. of duty?
 Is there worship in your actions and bitterness on your lips? Do you make a pretense solely that all the world may see? Are you content to let others live their lives in their own way, to kneel at their owp shrines, whether they be ln public places or in the sanctuary of their own conscience, or do you wish them to conform to your own standard, poor and puerile, frail and futile, though it be? ,-...
 Do you speak in harshness or hap piness, in cruelty or charity? Is your soul muslin or madras? Are you stronger for profession than prac- tice? Are the windows of your heart free or fenestral2 What is there. ID yourself, your thought, your speech, your conduct, your example, that IS. calculated to convert others? Ask yourself! Is spirituality so much part of you-is your personality so Winning-is the treatment of your problems so unselfish, cheerful and unaffected that others will say:: Il would were like him!'
 Is your life feracious Or fallow? Do you receive Or repel? Do you grasp everything and give nothing! Is everything invariably someone else's fault? Do you help or hiuder? Do you lift or lean? Are your eyes set for the soil or the stars? Are you never wrong and others never right? "The love of Christ constraineth us'', |, says Corinthians. Does it mould you, too? Are you so eager to cross the borderland alone that you forget that someone else might desire to go too!
 These. may, be fogram reflections at such a time, preachy and prosy, but life itself is @trite and old and it is the ancient 5homilies that fashion and give direction to all our hves.- Pitsfeld Eagle.

We are ready for anything since a prominent Columbus business man has asserted that he saw some vita mines at play the other day. He was eating lunch at a prominent club and during the course of the meal some Camembert cheese was placed before him.

Fools Paradise" a Winner

Cecil B. DeMille's superb Para mount picture, Fools Paradise", is doing a record business at the Ma haiwe theatre, Ct. Harrington, where it is on view today and tomorrow. It is a delightful creation and aside
 from its great heart appeal, there are many dramatic situations that thrill old and young alike. Dorothy Dalton, Mildred Harris, Conrad Ma gel, Theodore Kosloff, John Davidson and Julia Faye, who have the leading roles, are highly artistic in their portrayals. That the picture is a sure-fire winner, the business of the theatre amply indicates.
