AT THE PALACE

In Katherine MacDonald's lates First National attraction, Domestic Relations" which is coming to the Palace theater on Thursday for day engagement, are two married couples.
 One, day laborer, uneducated rough and steel-muscled, inflicts a physical injury upon his wife. The other husband, a judge, self-centered austere, dignified, a scion of an old family, maltreats his wife by his sus- picions, his lack of faith in her at a grave moment.
 Both husband arc unjust to their wives, and the story gives those who see it chance to determine which husband is the more unjust.
 William P. Carleton enacts the role of the judge.
 As an extra attraction Reginald Denny will be seen in round nine of The Leather Pushers." The Keith vaudeville-bill for the last half of the week will feature Ali Ripon and Jiggs in "A Night at Dinty Moore's." Other acts include the Three Wilson Sis- ters Al Libby in novelty; and Pa trice and Sullivan in musical act.

 "Oh, yes. When I'm in the pasture sometimes kick"

 Good night he said.
 Kate wondered at the odd intona- tion. It was incomprehensible, some thing of regret, something of curiosi- ty. Her impulse was to ask him why his voice sounded so strangely. but she checked the words and said sim ply:

 She watched the car as it bore La than away into the night Then she turned to the house. She paused a moment at the door. Latham had put the trunk on the veranda. She hadn't let him take it farther because she feared disturbing Justin, who was asleep in the house.
 She touched the cover of it tender ly. She loved it, loved the dilapidated thing-just because it had been Dams!
 Latham couldn't rob her of her dream. What if he did say he had seen Dan in Paris with woman What if he did! The more her ideal threatened to vanish, the more she clung to it. With every attempt of Latham's to rob her she grew richer and more miserly of her dreams.
