than to leave it before your door, turn sick. And that you further have insulted your ilustrious prede cessors by giving that child not only your name but the name of the an cestor of whom we are most proud John Alden! It seems incredible.
 Why John, do you realize that thi. child is probably illegitimate? Nc woman, no matter lo wpoor, would give up child in this way, refusing to disclose her identity, unless that child was born in disgrace.
 The only reason I can think ot whereby Mrs. Hamilton would agree to this awful piece of insanity i. that both she and her husband have come, as you might say, from the soil, and they have no feeling of the duties and responsibilities that be- lcng to us who count among our progenitors the splendid Puritan forefathers who built up this coun- try.
 do not think shall ever recover from this terrible disgrace. Of course you know it is all silly nonsense that Leslie would not have recovered if she had not had a baby given her. Other women have lost children and still retained their sanity. Leslie s mind must be weaker than even thought it was.
 You must never expect to bring that child into my house. You must never expect it to be given, in my will, any of the heirlooms which have come down to us from the John Alden family. In fact, today I am making another will and giving all my old furniture and other precious mementoes of our glorious family life, to dear Priscilla Bradford. She has so deeply sympathized with me in this great trouble which you have put upon me that I cannot help but love her more than ever. Dear Pris- ella says she feels that no one has the right to adopt a child of doubtful ancestry, and that she would not think of adopting one unless it were the child of some one in her own family or perhaps in mine.
 Ever since have read that ter rible article-(to think that such a thing should be written about one of my name. in public newspaperl- have taken to my bed. consider 1t a disgrace that any one belonging to me should have her name in the paper in connection with the birth of a child. You were not mentioned among my friends until you were christened
 However, since you have married, John, you have paid very little at tention to my wishes and I expect we will now drift farther apart than ever

HEART OF WETONA'
 AT LYCEUM SUNDAY
With Norma Talmadge and Melg-
 han--Great Bill All Week

Norma Talmadge, than whom there is no more versatile or popular actress
 playing in the movies, will be seen in one of the big Sunday features at the Lyceum in The Heart of
 Wetona," from the celebrated stage play of the same name. Also, there will be the news reels and comedies, the latest episode in Fighting Blood" and stirring drama What Fools
 Men Are" Then on Monday comes "Jacqueline," from the pen of James
 Oliver Curwood, while the last half of the week brings Rodolf Valentino and the original cast in that stupen- dous production '1The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Despite the mag nitude of this attraction. there is to
 be no increase in prices. What Fools Men Are" is a com edy drama, with plenty of laughs yet having a serious vein and good bit of romance. Thomas Meighan sup ports Miss Talmadge in ''The Heart of Wetona," which first starred Le- nora Ulrich and was Belasco's great est success. It Is story of half Indian girl who has been wronged by the man she loves. She refuses to tell the name of her betrayer and the agent of the Indian reservation is ac- cused. This man really has been in love with the girl, but has never told her as she apparently did not care for him. To protect her he marries her. She is. cast out of her tribe and later, through some dramatic and highly romantic situations, she learns that she really does love the man she has married.
 " 'The Four Horsemen of the Apo calypso" written originally by Ibanez and adapted to the screen from his story. is admittedly one of the great est photoplays ever filmed.
 Beginning a week from tomorrow night, the Lyceum will hold it's great revival week. During this period there will be different picture each day and each picture will be one of the greatest screen successes of the year, thus giving everybody a chance To see their favorite again or to see one of these pictures that possibly they missed at a previous showing.
 On Sunday evening. August 12. there will be two features, George Arliss in The Man Who Played God" and Douglas Fairbanks in 'The Molly coddle." The next day brings Doug, las Fairbanks in "The Three Muske- teers." Tuesday brings Mary Pick ford in Through the Back Door;" Wednesday, Way Down East" with

GREEN PEPPERS

Sweet green peppers offer an excel lent opportunity for the cook to use left-overs attractively and tighten the meat course in hot weather. Be it remembered that meat produces heat and any substitute in the way of milk and eggs is desirable.
 Peppers have little food value ex- cept as a stimulant to the appetite. They are always acceptable in a vege- table salad as a garnish and to give a piquant touch to the taste.
 There is a thin film over the out side of a pepper that is indigestible. This should be removed no matter low the pepper is to be served. Dip in scalding water and slip the skin.
 There are many varieties of sweet peppers, but We see the green one oftenest in market. There is a big yellow sweet pepper that is delicious. The flesh is thicker than the green pepper. And the sweet red pepper has rather spicy flavor lacking in the common green variety. All of these peppers are delicious canned for winter use.
 Canned Peppers
 Cut slice from stem end of peppers. Remove seeds and white fiber. Cover with cold water and let stand until cool Pack in sterilized jars, add # teaspoon salt to a pint, fill jars with boiling water, half seal and boil two

MIR. BEAR KNOWS ALL THE
 RULES.
 After the little unpleasantness con corning the small fish that Cuffy Bear caught, and his father ate, the Bear family fished in silence.
 Some time afterward MT. Bear made another pass at a fish that swam near the rock where he was sauatting.
 Missed him again." growled MT. Bear. And he was a big one"
 I've got him!" Cuffy beloved a moment later.
 Sure enough, he had. There on the shore of the lake was great fish, Hopping and floundering.
 "I'll put my paw on him, so he won't get back into the water" MT. Bear cried.
 NO, thank you! I'll put my paw on him" Cuffy shouted. He tucked in front of his father. One of MT. Bears paws crossed one of Cuffy's. MT. Bear tripped and fell. And when he rose, Cuffy was safely holding his fish.
 Mir Bear glared. step aside" he commanded. If l want to put my own paw upon my own fish, nobody shall stop me"
 But this isn't your fish, Pal" Cuffy cried. It's mine. I caught it."
 "Nonsense," Mir. Bear growled. That's my fish. I say him first. l missed him once. But that was an accident It's a fishing rule that all the fish a person misses belongs to him"
 "Is that 50, Mother?" Cuffy ap- pealed to Mrs. Bear.
 She looked puzzled.
 T don't know. I never heard Of such a rule" she told him.
 "of course you never heard of that rule" said her husband warmly. You are not a famous fisherman. my dear. If you had fshed as much as I have, you'd know that I know what I'm talking about"
 Tt doesn't seem quite right" Mrs. Bear murnured. Couldn't you break the rule just for once, Ephrain, and let Cuffy have that fish ?''

FINDS METHOD ID DIVIDE ELEMENTS
Chicago Chemist Separates
 Those Thought lnSeparable

Chicago, Aug. 1.-Two chemical elements hitherto considered indivisi- ble' have been separated by Dr. Will liam D. Harkins, professor or physi- cal chemistry at the University of Chicago, whose experiments in this field are expected to revolutionize the chemical theory of a century.
 Dr. Harkins explained how he tried to separate chlorine, the greenish yell low gas used by the Germans when they first introduced chemical war fare. Chlorine has long been con- sidered oneaof the 90 odd clements, like carbon,s oxygen and hydrogen, which hav1 detied all attempts are present in the earth and in the sun.
 For five years we worked" he said. We tried all sorts of apparatus and used more than ton of hydrogen chloride before we succeeded. The gas was diffused through the stems of church warden pipes. These pipes are made of white clay and have stems between IS and 24 inches long. The lighter parts of the gas passed outward through the stems. The HedVlGT pdTLs 4ISIlldlllCu, dllu tHuo WE discovered that our so-called element, chlorine, could be separated and an- other time -honored theory had sur rendered. Virtually all physicists and chemists in the United States have accepted the results"
 pr. Harkins then demonstrated that mercury, also considered a fundamen- tai substance, can be broken up. Like the chlorine twins, the parts of mer- cury look alike but are vastly diff ferent in weight, he explained. Dr. Harkins is performing similar experi- ments with zinc and cadmium to see If they too are mixtures instead of elements.
 These experiments indicate, then, that there probably is only one funda- mental element instead of the 90 we have been pinning our faith on all these years," pr. Harkins said. That basic element is hydrogen, and, &C., cording to my theory, all the so-called elements are compounds of helium or helium with hydrogen. But since helium itself is built up from hydro gen, then all the clements are intra- tonic compounds of hydrogen"

 l though that he had asked the question in order to avoid answering the query had voiced concerning his possible encounter with the stale trooper, but as l saw him dash aside rom the path we were following, realized that something out of the way had engaged his attention. And then, faint but distinct, I heard a hoarse little whimper:
 Mama"
 did not cry out, but my heart ut- tered Katies loud and frantic vail. as we both rushed after Jim. And when I could control my voice sent continued cheery calls toward the di- rection from whence the little voice had come.
 "Yes, Junior, Mothers right here. Stand still. Don't move ntil Mother comes.
 It was but a few seconds, although it seemed an interminable time, be- fore we came up to my small son, who, safe in Jim's arms, was rubbing his eyes with the back of a grimy hand, and making a brave attempt not to be "a baby''-his pet detesta- tion
 Katie's 1ashlight and mine played over the little figure, and the same exclamation of dismay came to our lips as we saw that he was bare headed, and with no coat. I tore off my motor coat to wrap him in, and Katie, throwing off her own coat, snatched mine from me, and wrap ping Junior in it, caught him up and started for the farmhouse.
 Katie Talks Command
 Me, room fast and carry heerl. too,' she said authoritatively "Missis Graham, you throw my coat round you, eet not so warm as dis for babee, und den room fast as you can, hold fashlight for me ven mine no go.''

 She dominated both of us, by the sheer weight of her devotion to the child in her arms, and I found my self trotting obediently by her side, thanking Heaven for her tireless muscles and auickness of perception.
 Jim passed us. for, fearing a pos sible stumble, Katie watched ground in front of her at each step illunlin- ated by the flashlight. And when we reached the farmhouse, Mother Gra- ham was at the door, while through the open door I could see Katherine hastily heating some milk, and Mrs. Ticer kneeling before the fireplace with blanket before it.
 "My Mama NOT Bad"
 The child was shivering when Katie set him down, and I saw Katherine glance at him with apparent careless ness, but with what I well knew was professional scrutiny, as I took the
