THAT is THAT"

THE fences that had always pro-

tanned Life, suddenly, when she reached
forty, were torn away. Her father,
whom she had ever placed before her
friends, died-took his own life when
he himself ruined, involved in a dis
graceful failure. So. with school
girls knowledge of the world, Eliza
beth found herself without family,
without money, without name. She
was, she realized. quite alone-even
Uncle VIII seemed to have forgotten
her. And, having come to this reallza-
ton, she summed it all up saying 10
herself, '"That is that!"
A month later she read in farm
journal an advertisement of five acres
and house in Vermont. And within
the week she was a land owner pos
Nessed of just cash enough to worry
through the winter.
The man she had engaged at the
railroad station to drive her the ten
miles to Hardscrahble road had looked
askance at her as she mentioned her
destination. His last words as he left
her before her tumble-down doorway
were, Watch 'them-they're tough
lot, these Hardserabble people" And
as, with curiosity written large on their
staring faces. they drifted past that
evening, she could easily believe 1t.
Inside. there was no furniture-just
four cracked walls with broken win
dow panes. But one thing was clear:
she couldn't afford to change her mind.
Again that was that !"
Having faced the cold, bare facts,
certain of them began to take on sig
nifcance. She noticed that the
toughest of her neighbors went regu-
larly on Sunday to the red school
house to church. When they learned
that she could read, they asked her to
lead their service in the absence OF the
visiting minister. When she suggested
raising the few hundred dollars neces-

SEEKING HIGHER HOPES

THERE are periods in every NOR
tails existence when he or she is
inspired to seek nobler life. a better
manhood or womanhood.
Just what 1t is that prompts us to
reach up into the unknown. to soar
to higher hopes, is difficult to deter
mine.
1t may be the smile of loved one,
the wit and wisdom Of scholar, the
hard sense of the philosopher, the
merry laughter of a little child, who is
leading us without our suspecting 1t,
or the sudden outburst of storm.
when thunders crash and the earth
trembles.
A new sensation sweeps over us
which we are at loss to explain.
We feel it In every fiber Of our
body and brain.
We are warmed by an incessant
spray of fine fancies. an intellectual
and moral exaltation, such as we have
never experienced.
Our exultation over our enemies. our
proclamation from the housetops that
our transgressions are not as other
mems sins, become in little while our
undoing for perhaps the seventh time.
In the privacy of our chamber we
may admit seven is low score. but
we are glad to let 1t go at that.
We have fallen again through our
own Incompatible folly.
In our boastful flight we have lost
some of the pinions of our once pow
erful wings.
We must fly now closer to the
ground and even kneel in humility If
we would continue to seek higher
hopes.
In this mood It Is often a question
with us whether we shall persist IN our
flight or openly admit our frallty and
failure.

Something to Think About
BuF. A DALKER
By F. A. DALKER

What name shall we put upon our
actions and doubts?
What penalties shall we impose up
on ourselves, knowing we are guilty.
and that in spite of every effort we
make at PREPARATIONS we get deeper
and deeper in the mire and farther
away from those lofty hopes toward
which we have been cropping for years?
The fine thing to do Is to hold to
courage.
When doubt beats against this dust
habitation of ours and threatens Its
destruction, summon Faith and march
on under her divine protection, sure
of the outcome.

Indian Boy Tortured;
Suspected of Sorcery

Vancouver, B. CA weird tale of
witchcraft. torture and murder came
over the wires from PARKWAY Tele-
graph Greek.
II was a message from Royal Ca
madam mounted policeman announc-
ing that after trekking for year
through northern British Columbia he
was returning to civilization with an
aged Indian squaw and four accom-
plices who killed young brave by
inches because his ''sorcery" brought
the wrath of the evil spirits upon his
tribesmen. as
Atol Mocassn was the victims name.
The name of the squaw charged with
his. murder was not contained in the
policeman's dispatch. There was only
a brief account of the crime.
A year ago, the message said, hunt
ing suddenly became very poor among
the Indians of the northern wilder
ness. A long, cold winter followed
and starvation, disease and death cut
swaths in the ranks Of the trfbesmen.
The superstition of their religion
taught the Indians that some one of
their number, some sorcerer and
maker of bad medicine" whose witch
cries invoked the wrath of the evil
spirits. had brought calamity upon the
tribe Suspicion fell upon the youth
Atol.
Led by the aged squaw, the tribes
mer invaded his shack at night, found
him mumbling strange words over his
tiny wood fire and laid hands on him.
They tied him to sapling, head down
ward, and let him hang for days. slow
ly dying.
At length the aged woman grew I'M
patient that Atol died so slowly, ac-
cording to the policeman's telegraphed
account, and so she cut his throat
with hunting knife.
Over the trails, from camp to camp,
the story filtered through to the
mounted police and one of its mem
bers set forth to bring the slayers to
justice.

rain-to heighten the effect. until the
continuous downpour affects the
nerves even of the auditors. 1t is
an unusual device which gives to
the play an unusually significant title
1t would be diff1cult to overpraise
the acting of Miss Eagels and the
cast which supports her. The change
which comes over Sadie Thompson,
under the influence of terror and
finally under the influence Of a kind of
spiritual awakening. as pictured by
Miss Eagels, and her reversion to her
old self in the final act show real
range Of power Robert Kelly has
the part of the missionary, "the man
who feedeth on DEVILS" and plays it
convincingly. Rapley Holmes as Joe
Horn, trader of Pago Pago, and
Emma Wilcox as Ameena. his wife,
are literally and f1guratively tre-
mendous in their parts. Fritz Will
liams plays the hard headed but soft
hearted DR.. McPhail. Just to heighten
the effect. a couple of natives, Howa
Owa and Llano Paulo, are thrown in.
The entire action of the play takes
place in the hotel store of Trader
Joe Horn on the Island of Tutuila,
Port of Pago Pago, South Seas.
A motley gathering is deposited at
Pago Pago en- route to another and
larger island under British rule. The
Stars and Stripes float over Tutuila,
and American marines are. In evil
dence. Among the visitors are Rev.
Alfred Davidson and his wife, mis-
sionaries: DR.. and Mrs. McPhail and
Sadie Thompson. Sadie has been
travelling second-class heretofore and
so has not come in contact with the
others until they land at Pago Pago.
There they are stranded for two
weeks, guarantined. Sadie is tough
but picturesque. She is easy to
look at as the burlesque writer has
it. She gathers little marine out
