LycEusf SIGNS UP REX.

All next week the Lyccum will show one of the most baffling acts this generation has seen. It will present Rex, the famous mental telepathist who has baffled experts all over the country. This is big act, runs 30 minutes and has four performers. Of especial interest locally is the fact that Miss Minnie Huber of this city. who starred in the recent Masonic show as a dancer, is with this troupe in similar capacity. A girl singer. formerly with Gnu Chin Chow, also is with the act as is a violinist.
 The great jazz band act, straight from Melodyland, now featuring the Lyceum's vaudeville, is one of the snappiest band outfits ever seen here and every one of the eight musicians is skilled at his particular instrument.
 The picture is "The Hero" one of the greatest stage successes of recent years. Although it is a story of small town life, nevertheless it abounds in thrills and romantic activities. though it also has enough comedy to tighten the heavy parts.
 For the first three days of next week the Lyceum has arranged to show one of filmland's greatest mas- terpieces, Poor Mems Wives"

STRANGE DOINGs.

As Cuffy Bear stole noiselessly through the thicket, way around on the farther side of Blue Mountain, he heard his father saying wool! wool! And thea another voice. which certainly wasn't his fathers. an- swered with a wool. woof wool.
 Suddenly other woofs in still dif- ferent tones fell upon Cuffy's ears. He paused and listened. It was plain that his father had met several friends. No doubt they had all come to that spot on the same important business that had brought Mir Ephraim Bear. Cuffy's father, there.
 For little while Cuffy didn't dare stir. He crouched among the young spruce trees and listened tc a great deal of loud talk, of which he under stood little.
 Finally he pushed on. And coming to the end of the thicket, he peeped out very carefully into a clearing ahead.
 There he beheld his father, stand ing on his head, while about him stood four other big bears, grinning and grunting.

In a few moments Mir. Bear top pied over and fell with a dull thud upon the leafy carpet. At that the whole crew burst into a roar, which echoed through the forest A star tied grouse, which had been dozng in the thicket, rose into the air not far from Cuffy. with such boom of his beating wings that Cufty jumped right ont into the clearing.
 Tn another moment he jumped back again. Luckily neither his fa- ther nor any of his fathers friends had noticed him. They were too much taken tip by the important busi- ness that had brought them to the meeting place.
 Cuffy saw his father rise and slap the hugest of his friends on the back.
 You try it, Big Foot" said Mir. Bear T don't believe you can stand on your head as long as I stood on mine"
 Big Foot gave Mr. Bear playful buffet on the nose that sent him reeling back. until he tumbled over d log and fell fiat again.
 Now therell be trouble,' Cuffy told himself Fathers sure to lose his temper"
 But to his surprise, his father sprang up grjnning, At home, if any body so much as stepped on one of Mir. Bears toes he was furious.
 Even when another of Mir. Bears friends ripped him from behind and sat on him. Mir. Rear seemed to think it all q great joke.

Letter From sally Atneiton to Her
 Friend, Beatrice Grimshaw.

Dear Bee;
 am writing this letter to you be- cause you only of all the people ] know are aware of the reason why I decided not to give up my position when I married Sam. You knew that he, like many other men of great talent or business perspicuity. of vision and fascination, was ad- dicted to drink before the prohibi- ton iaw was passed.
 I do not think I would ever have married him had not prohibition become law. 1t seemed to me that in OUT circumstances it would be all most impossible for Sam to get very much liquor and I knew he really wanted 10 break off from the awful stuff. \ You have often heard nfg ideas on the subject and you know that l have always thought it was the agent which led to the most terrible tragedies and the greatest immoral ity in all the world.
 Sam is not unkind; he is not un- gentlemanly; he is not impolite even when he has been drinking. But he is not himself. And I am always afraid that he will do something for which he will have to pay to the uttermost
 The day after the quarrel of which wrote you, when Sam came in I noticed that he did not kiss me. thought it was very strange. but when I made an excuse to get near

BAKED SPRING CHICKEN
BY BERTHA E. SHAPLEIGH Of Columbia University

The following formula is given on the basis of two spring chickens, so that it may be reduced--or multiplied -proportIonately if need be.
 Singe. clean and split the two chickens. Mix one-fourth cup of but ter, two teaspoons of paprika, one half teaspoon of salt and the juice of one-half lemon. Divide between the two chickens, which have been placed in pan skin side down. Place in a hot oven and cook for ten minutes. Turn the chickens over, haste well with the butter and cook fifteen minutes, basting once or twice during that time.
 Usually the chickens are thorough ly cooked in twenty-five minutes, but If they do not seem to be done in that length of time, cook ten minutes longer. Serve at once on hot plat ter, with butter and juices remaining in the pan poured over them.

Watkins would be the first to discharge you if you should do anything reprehensible while under the influence Of liquor ?' "Of course I do my dear, but you see am not going to do anything reprehensible, You know that, do you not ."
 "I think you did something repre- hensible. Sam, when you accepted | drink even from your boss. You were both disobeying the laws of your countfy."
 "Oh, come off, Sally, don't be a prude. A man is rather proud of being drunk nowadays. It shows that either he has money himself or has friends who have money"
 And is having money the stand ard by which you live. Sam?"
 Isn't it yours?" he asked, rather satirically.
 And then, Sally, knew that Sam thought I was working outside my home simply to make a little more money, when you know and I know was only keeping my position for fear that some day Sam will lose his. Am right or is he?
 Dubiously,
