4 WOMAN OF PARIS
 COMING TOLYCEUN
Opens Sunday ht--Hope Hanp- ton in "DoeS Il Pay" Thursday

The Lyccum's program Starting to- morrow night, Edna Purviance in the Charles Chaplin drama, "A Woman of Paris starts four days run, fol- lowing which the great William Fox special attraction, Docs It. Pay?' starring Hope Hampton. will be shown. An added Sunday evening fea- ture will be Earle Williams in You Never Know" decidedly entertain ing comedy drama, replete with TO- nance and activity. The Lyceum also has contracted to bring here shortly the Checker Girls Revue" the same company that made such hit year ago. The company has new chorus and among the principals Is Al Lem- ons of this city.
 To the fair sex who insist on being always beautiful, the beauty parlor not only is source of beauty, but also a source of information for it is here that the choicest bits of gossip may be heard. In "A Woman of Paris" one scene depicts Marie St. Clair, played by Miss Puryiance, re- eeiying her morning message and at the same time getting the latest gos- sip. The story itself is of life. It concerns an innocent French girl who, turned out by her father and beliey- ing herself deserted by her lover, goes to Paris where she becomes the beau- tiful toy of d wealthy man. Her first shock comes when her paramour nn- nounces his engage ment to another. Through a series of intriguing incl Afn Af. 1ahF sweetheart now an art student, and their old love flames anew, but there arises in her mind the question of Love of LuNury." She decides for love, but again it is snatched from her and the picture proceeds to an eE- citing climax which is as real as life itself. This picture is Chaplin's first serious effort and if bids fair to be as great success as his lighter ventures

Alice Upton is tho prima donna and is said to be possessed of a fine voice. The songs in the company's repertoire are the latest and the production is in every way up 10 the minute.

 It is extremely likely that Ingalls, manager of the Checker Girls com pany, will again have an amateur night at the Lyceum, as each season he has successfully conducted one here. This gives local talent a chance for try on the stage.

HOLLAND REJECTS
TREATY OF LEAGUE
Holds Proposed Mutual
Guarantees Pact Based on
might Rather Than Right.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
, GENEVA, August 1.-THE Dutch
government has followed the example
of the United States. Great Britain
and Germany in rejecting the League
of Nations proposed treaty of mutual
guarantees. ii was made known yes
terday when the secretariat of the
league published in full the letter in
which Holland rejected the treaty as
the basis for disarmament.
The letter, which is signed by II. A.
van karnebeek. former president of
the League of Nations assembly, de-
clareS that the regional agreements
of aid in cases of aggression, provided
by the treaty. not only are contrary
to the spirit of the covenant of the
1~a-ne, but would be constant men,
see to peace.
The letter doubts whether such
ments. as the various nations would
be likely to accept the limitations as
a minimum instead of a maximum. In
conclusion, the Dutch communication
expresses the conviction that the dis
armament cannot be accomplished by
any organization of a military char
acter based on force, but rather by
making the league univ ersal and by
seeking worldwide adoption of It's
principles especially those binding
the league members to settle disputes
peaceably. Holland pledges herself
to do everything possible to bring
about such universally of the league,
but it cannot support any organlza-
tion based on might rather than right

The Value
of Charcoal
Few People Know How Useful 1t is
in Preserving Health and Beauty
and Yet 1t is Not a DRUG

| Pure Willow Charcoal is the SAT-
! est and most efficient disinfectan:
/ and purifier in nature.
/ And the more you take of it the
| better 1t is not drug at all, but
simply absorbs the injurious gases
n and impurities always present in
the stomach and intestineS and
carries them out of the system.
/ Charcoal Sweetens the breath
after smoking or eating onions
and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and
| improves the complexion, whitens
the teeth, disinfects the mouth and
| throat from the poison of catarrh.
| and further acts as natural and
! eminently safe cathartic.
! All druggists sell charcoal in
one form or another. but probably
the best and most for the money is
| in Stuart's Absorbent LoZenges;
| composed of the finest quality
Willow Charcoal powdered to ex-
treme fineness, compressed in the
| form of large, pleasant tasting
! lozenges, sweetened to be smooth
and palatable.
Many physicians advise Stuart's
Absorbent Lozenges to patients
suffering from gas in stomach and
bowels. and. to -clear-the complex
ion and purify the breath, mouth
and throat. They are also be-
lieved to greatly benefit the liver.
These lozenges cost but thirty
cents a box at drug stores. For a
