A splendid bill of Keith vaudeville opened a three day engagement at the Capitol today offering five sterling acts Of real good entertainment. The bill is headed by Al Moore and His L. S. Jazz Band, back again by popular request after making big hit here a short while ago. The L. $. Jazz Band is made up of eleven talented musi- clans who have been making a big hit in vaudeville for quite some time. The band Was first organized at the Charlestown Navy Yard during the war and through the direction Of Lieut.. Moore became one of the best bands in both the army and navy. Other acts on the bill include Homer Cokhill, a very versatile chap who will surprise with his ability; Fargo and White in Bits Of Africanology," a fine blackface offering; Bungalow Love-" comedy skit played by Lee Morgan and Maude Dunn; and Miss Physical Culture. The mast named will prove real interesting as this young lady is perfectly formed and owes her condition to exercise which she demonstrates. She shows the proper method to reduce and also gain flesh and during her stay here will gladly see personally any one de- siring to ask questions on physical culture as she employs it. The fea- ture photoplay will offer Viola Dana in "Rouged Lips" comedy drama that has a. well balanced story and a plot that will prove interesting. On Thursday with the change of pro- gram the management proudly an- nounces the engagement of the most talked of woman in the world, Helen Keller, blind, deaf and formerly dumb, but now talking in vaudeville.

LETTER FROM SYDNEY CARTON

DfHk JAIN:
There arc some things to me in
this life that arc utterly incxplain,
able, and perhaps the one that is
most so is the fact that man of
your calibcr and personality is able
or has been able to draw unto your
self two such women as Paula Pericl
and Leslie Hamilton. Both are toe
good for you.
I've had letter from Paula from
which I know she went to your
house absolutely decided to put the
matter up to Leslie, and take her
child with her as she shook the dust
of Albany off her feet.
Then she saw Leslie, and was
conquered. She saw how Leslie
loved the child. She realized how
hard it would be for her to give to
the boy his proper care, and she
made her greatest sacrifice, not for
you, old mani don't think you en-
tered into it at all. She sacrificed
herself for Leslie and the baby.
This may be somewhat startling tc
your egotism. | presume you have
been thinking all the while it was
because of love for you that; Paula
Perier did such u remarkable thing
when she was in your town.ns
On the contrary, I'm thinkine
that if Paula Perier could not have
forgotten you, if you were any more
a factor in her life, she could not
have left the boy with Leslie at all
She said nothing to me in her lette,
about seeing you. In fact, she only
