 In summing up the orchestral ac- tivities of the last season, Deems Tay- Tor, the distinguished critic Of the New York World. compared the dif- ferent American symphony orchcstras and concluded that the New York Symphony possessed the finest tone quality Of all.
 Another factor contributing to the greatness Of the New York Symphony "a condition probably unprecedent- ed in the history Of American sym phony orehestras-is due to the un- changing character Of the personnel of the organization. These distinguish cd musicians have played under the baton of Waiter Damrosch for many seasons; and Of course further perfec- ton is attainsd by daily rehearsals under their chief.

 Next Weeks Bill

Potash and Perlmutter." First National picture produced by Sam uel Goldwyn, and which is coming to four day engagement. contains a num- ber of exceptionally elaborate and handsome settings.
 Ordinarily a screen comedy does not possess as sumptuous settings as a drama, but in this instance Pro- ducer Goldwyn has furnished a luxurious background because the story was big and required it.
 One of these settings is the show room where the cloak and suit firm of Potash and Perlmutter exhibited its latest styles to the trade. While the buyers leaned back in mammoth chairs and diyans, supplied with cigars, cigarettes and refreshments by uniformed lackeys, score of handsome models paraded up and down an immense room draped with velvet and silk and illuminated by handsome chandeliers and shaded sidelights.
 Clarence Badger directed Potash and Perlmutter." Barney Bernard and Alexander Carr having the roles of the partners. assisted by Vera Gordon. It is from the famous play by Montague Glass and Charles Klein.
 On Thursday, Friday and Saturday the big attraction will be Whitman Bennett's story of the T.. s. mail serv- ice, Loyal Lives" which he has dedi- cated to the mail man and which is endorsed by Postmaster w. F. Delan- ey. The cast includes Mary Carr and Brandon Tynan. Announced as a coming attraction at an early date is the Clark Sisters Revue which the Palace will offer as a special innova- tion. It is a big peppery, jazzy. re- vue with a youthful dream chorus, Marty Depree's Revue is also booked for an enga cement soon.

 The Strained Voices
 To all outward appearances this was most natural and spontaneous conversation. but I fancied I detect ed a strain in both voices and turned the conversational switch down the track, which I guessed would be most welcome.
 T must remind you that dinner is almost ready" said. "Alfred if you will take charge of Dr. Braithwaite will take care of his wife. Don't let looking at Katherine.
 Dr. Braithwaite looked startled and balky.
 "But-Mrs. Durkee-" he said looking at aKtherine.
 Sound asleep" she answered and I think she will not waken for an hour at least. I hope so, for she needs the rest after wearing fit of nerves which attacked her a short time ago."
 "Yes, Mir. Durkee told me-" the surgeon replied. "Very well, then, ing this: that if Mrs. Durkee wakens. no matter at what time, wish to see her immediately before she has time to think about the interview and get nervous over it.''
 T shall summon you between two bites of pie," promised, and the fact that they were all intensely nervous was attested by the hearty laughter which greeted the inane jest as the group broke up.

DAILY FASHION sEryIcE =
WARM COATS FOR GIRLS

Snug fur collars and cuffs make the winter coats for small girls not only pretty but warm. The furs need not be expensive. They are just used to finish the edges where the cold creeps in. Little fur caps to match are shown with many of these tiny coats.
 Soft, smooth broadcloth and velour are the materials of good" coats, but for school and play wear thick, woolly plaids are the proper thing.
 A variety of styles is shown-high yokes, low waistlines and no yoke or waistline at all.

 CONFINEMENT


 Keeping away from fret and worry is a great aid to health and physical condition. The person who frets and fumes over imaginary Ills from inn aginary causes will not have the buoy ancy and spirit that should walk with him every day on the way to health and long life.
 You may become a nervous wreck through causes that are easy to diagnose but difficult of treatment by any physician. Mental disturbances, such as fret, worry and pretense which bring on nervousness, have a direct and serious effect on digestion and health. They go hand in hand with indigestion, stomach disorders, headaches, sluggish liver and diabetes. In fact. one may speak of worry as n short circuit of nerves to the brain. It burns out the vital tissues and gives no return for energy wasted.
 This worry and nervous fidgeting about fear. envy, excitement or hate must be put aside by your own power of self-control and determination. To hask in the sunshine of contentment is a mental and physical condition well worth while and one that all should try and cultivate,
 The trouble seems to lie in making up your mind. When you have done this in regard to any task that seems to have been set for you. you can lie down 10 sleep and pleasant dreams, as the sailor does even in a storm.
 The mind cure is all right in one sense at least. If more people would train their minds to endure the tasks set for them success would be theirs without worry or envy.

Letter From Leslie Prescott o Ruth
 Ellington.
 My Dear Ruth:
 Your wire received telling me that you were detained in New York. Also your letter of earlier date informing me of your good fortune in meeting Mir. Bloom. I certainly am glad, be- cause Harry did so many things to hurt you that this one thing he did for the young Jewish boy would re- turn to you and bring you happiness. Tn some slight way it may help to balance the account
 Strange, isn't it. Ruth. that we never know just exactly what will he the consequence of not only our slightest acts but our silliest speeches. I expect that this is as il should be. If we did realize this. we would all of US be so strained and serious that there never would be another laugh left in the world un- less it came from the lips of little children.
 Speaking Of children, am sure that little Jack smiled yesterday. ! was talking to him about his daddy and his lips curled up in that queer little sideways smile that Jack has, you know. Ii was uncanny. When l told Jack about it he insisted that the boy had the stomach ache. that no baby his age ever understood what vas said to him.
 If he did not understand me. l am sure that the baby did laugh be- cause some good spirit had told him how much had been given to him when Jack became his adopted father. Oh Ruth. you cannot tell how sorry l am for you. Whenever

How Katherine and Dr.
Braithwaite Met

At his wife's words, Dr. Edwin Braithwaite swung around abruptly, and with a long stride reached Kath- erine's side. Evidently my ruse to keep it's attention until the two men had exchanged greetings had been successful, for I am sure he had not seen his former associate until liar riet spoke her name.
 All unconscious of our scrutiny for I fear I watched him as narrow ly as did his wife-he put out both hands impetuously to Katherine. For just the almost imperceptibIe frac- ton of an instant she hesitated. and knew what fear of possible misin- depreciation on Harriet's part was in her heart, then she did the only pos- sible thing, and laid both her slender hands in the physicians big ones, in greeting that appeared as warm as his own. He shook them heartily, beaming at her with such evident delight that I remembered Harriet's comparison of "a child on Christmas morning."
 ''Well well !" He boomed the ban ality as though it never had been ut tered before, ''it is certainly good to see you once more. Let's have good look at you" He swung her around, facing the light, and scru- tinized her sharply before dropping her hands. I suspected that Kath- erihe had made the first movement to break that hearty handclasp.
 tYnn haven't cha hit proclaimed. T don't believe you've gained or lost a pound since we saw you. Has she, Harriet? And doesn't she look bully?"
 found my lower lip between my teeth ih my tense conjecture as to Harriet's answer, Surely a woman of' her arumen could not fail to read the utter absence of anything which could possibly threaten her own happiness in greeting. extravugant though it undoubtedly was.
 There was also the fact that he had greeted Katherine so openly and either man absolutely free from guile or one full of it for that &C., ton, and no one who ever hud en- joyed the privilege of Edwin Braith- waite's friendship could doubt his frank sincerity.
 Judged only by surface indications, | her answer to her husbands appeal was most gratifying.
 Indeed she does" she said heart- fly, then turning to Katherine, she put her hand upon tho younger wom- ans shoulder in an affectionate ges- ture rare with her.
 Mrs. Braithwaitc's Query
 'l did not know how much had | missed you, until now" she said, and | there was every evidence of sincerity | and affcctionate liking in her voice l and smile. Your letters have been | most unsatisfactory in their brevity. | When you get time, want to hear all about yourself--and your hus- band. understand he is away"
 There was distinct inquiry in her | voice, and Katherine promptly an- swcred it.
 "Yes, poor Jack, he is down in the South American wilderness again. 1t is wonderful assignment, and suppose I shouldn't call him poor for 1t is tho thing he loves to do, but I never can help worrying about him"
 Naturally But isn't it fortunate that you can be with Margaret7"
 Tt is more than that" Katherine

1 ! think of the utter destruction oi your love and married life, I cannot tell you how thankful and grateful 1 am that I am married to as good man as Jack and that God has sent me this beautiful baby.
 Notwithstanding the baby is a joy to me personally, yet some way feel that perhaps I am doing an even bigger thing by bringing him up and caring for him. That l am making something out Of this child that otherwise might have been lost in the great maelstrom of life, than I could possibly be doing if he were my very own.
 IL makes me very happy. too. to know how much Jack thinks of the baby. You know I never thought he would care for a child unless it was his own, but he seems 10 love this one very dearly.
 He is working very hard, Ruth, and l think he has learned his lesson. l do not think he will ever dabble in stocks again. He doesn't seem very well and is quite irritable and nervous. but l feel that it is not my part to inquire into his troubles un- less he tells me.
 I think he is worrying a little bit about me. for you must know, dear, that I have not been we'll at all this week. Have been kept in the house with a nasty cold and cough and Jack just goes all to pieces when anything seems 10 affect my lungs, you know.
 I've insisted upon his going out once or twice of an evening. I pre- sume he went to a moving picture show, although l did not ask him.
 By the way, l am quite anxious Co know what you think Of that moving picture you spoke to me about I see it is advertised in AL bsny and the other day Mrs. Smith son called and acted 50 queerly when she asked me had ever known Paula Perier who plays the leading part.
 She said the picture was most re- in it's Iife-Iike depletion of s certan terrible thing that is quite prevalent in society. She asked me If Jack had seen it. I told her that be hadn't spoken of it and she said, l No. I don't think he would"
