HOW THEY DO 1T

CPENDING your days addressing to
- the world at large the question: {:
How do they do it," is not going to
bring you any information.
You will see In your travels the
banker, the railroad president, the
painter, the author all respected, all
useful. all getting a great deal out
Of life that they have, each in their
own way, made easier for others.
You will read. perhaps, that this
man started on farm, that the other
began as an office boy, that the rail-
road president once wiped engines on
the line which he now rules.
And IL you are normal the question
"How do they do itT will occur to
you very frequently.
For these men will look much like
other men; they will talk like other
men. They will have the same inter
est in baseball scores and the out.
come OF big prize fight.
And 1t will be difficult for you to
understand just what 1t was that
placed them In the high positions they
occupy, and kept them there.
The answer to your question Is
fortunately not inaccessible. You can
find out how they do 1t, IL you try.
Nearly all OF them have written, or
will write, exactly how they did It.,
or II they do not they will tell others
who will put 1t on paper for you to see.
And you will be very much sur
prised to discover that in most cases
the one thing that did 1t was applica-
tion and industry-in other words
hard work.
Geniuses are men apart. They don't
know how they do II, and they can't
tell.
But successful business men and
lawyers and doctors are not geniuses,
they are merely men with good ma
tural ability, and enough energy to
keep working till they get what they
are after.
Study and read their biographies
wherever you find them. They will
answer for you very important
question And II they can help you
just a little toward exerting more
energy and cherishing little higher
purpose, the time you spend In read
ing about them will be paid for at
the rate Of many thousand dollars an
hour.

Something to
Think Ab0uf
VACANT HOUSES
By r. n. WALKER

TN THEIR grave solitude and DESC
= lation. vacant houses are pathetic
reminders Of empty minds, neglected
and forgotten by those able to take
best care of them.
On old country roads you may often
see such habitations, seemingly eager
to proffer smile of welcome, but
quite unable to do 1t.
Rank weeds are about the doors,
the walls are weather-worn and
stained. presenting altogether a sad
picture.
And these vacant houses started
gayly in life; warm in friendship and
love, full of hope and aspiration,
dreaming of enduring usefulness and
happiness.
AS the years rolled by they
dreamed less and finally sank into a
hopeless state Of despondency.
You may like vacant houses or not,
but there they are, telling in a Ian
guage of their own Of the days that
are departed and the Joys that are
done.
And what happens to vacant houses
happens In a far more lamentable
way to empty minds, whose owners
habitually neglect them, and pay for
their disregard the sharpest penalties,
at time when their own reward
should be muniflcent.
If you are wilfully neglecting your
mind. allowing the weeds to grow
about the doorway, you will find some
day that you are living In solitude In
a dreary dwelling, from which your
friends of old turn away in sadness.
You were so self-reliant in your
youth that you did not care to en-
large and beautify your thoughts.
Gradually you neglected this i'm
portant duty until the weeds grew
and crowded out the flowers. Too
proud to stand up straight and stretch
out your arms to embrace knowledge,
you sat down In idleness or shirked
your opportunity.
Being now your own witness and
your own judge, there Is alas! no
possible escape from punishment.
The world has moved on and left
you behind In wilderness Of mold
and darkness, where you have time to
reflect and repent.
But, be 1t known. whatever your
age. you may yet improve your vacant
house and make of 1t thing of
beauty.
Women, as a rule, can do this more
readily than men, yet men at forty
and fifty have been known to form
studious habits and flood their old
vacant houses with light until Its
briiiiancy Illuminated up the whole
world!

MAE MURRAY IN
STORY OF SPAIN

Mae Murray goes to Spain for the
background of her newest produc-
ton, Fascination" which is to
have its first showing in its Fort
Armstrong engagement tomorrow,
and for which Manager Cummings
has had an appropriate musical set
ting arranged by Director White for
his augmented orchestra. There
will be strains from Carmen" and
other compositions containing the
atmosphere of sunny Spain.
Miss Murray is said to have done
work in Fascination" even more
brilliant than she gave us in Pea
cock Alley" a picture that had a
popular run at the Fort Armstrong
q few weeks ago. In Fascination"
Miss Murray appears as the daugh-
ter of Spanish father and an
American mother. The combina-
ton of the Latin temperament and
the Anglo-Saxon gives Miss Murray
latitude for effective acting as Dol
ores De Lisa She portrays the part
of a young girl who, revolving
against the chaperonage of an aunt,
decides TO give herself a holiday.
Disgusting herself in a black wig
and holiday garb, she attends a
bull fight against the wishes Of her
aunt. At the bull fight she meets

The scenes are described as elab-
crate and lavish, the whole main

closes tonight with two shows, at

the outstanding one. Paul Reno

STAR STRONGER
Than ACTION IN
SHERLOCK film

what players personality
means to q screen production Is
aptiy illustrated in the late re-
leases of Sherlock Holmes films.
In the feature photoplay called
Sherlock Holmes" the attention is
constantly with John Barrymore
and his characterization of the IL
tie part. The evolution of the plot
is of secondary consideration. The
reverse situation exists in the
series of Engiish-ma0e two-reelers
/ based on the Conan Doyle stories.
Ellie Norwood plays the role of
Sherlock Interest in him centers
{ On the part he takes in the solu-
ton of the mystery rather than on
his acting. Judged only on the
score of action the two-reel stol les
have greater merit than the fea-
ture-length film.
A mystery play or story holds
the interest more than any other
because it concentrates on every
| little detail. If the solution seems
! obvious the interest is still held, or
one likes to have his own theory of
solution enacted for him. In d re-
view of THE Devils Foot" and
1.-The Dying Detective" the fret Of
| the two-reelers to be released by
Educational, the solution of the
mystery seemed obvious to the
writer, even though those stories had
not been previously read. Even So
interest did not lag. In one case
the supposed solution was correct
in the other wrong The interest
in such mystery films is greater
because the spectator makes it per-
sonal.
