 Many other works of the prolific writer achieved great success and at least one aroused controversy com parable to that now lowering around the stage. This was Saints and Sinners, which had its debut at the Vaudeville in London in 1885.
 Tt was hooted on the first night" wrote Jones, land condemned by a considerable part of the press on the count that it dealt with religious matters, and that I had made it's personages quote Scripture on a Sunday morning. It ran two hun dred nights at the Vaudeville, and was even more successful in America.
 ''The Silver King" started him on the road to financial success. while The Case of the Rebellious Susan" was the forerunner Of h0 comedy successes. He also published a few volumes concerning the theater, principally critical works.

Their skepticism turned to expressions of astonishment. and bewildered they looked on. huddled in their overcoats, feet and hands numb from the cold. while the two girls plunged into the water as if it were the middle of summer. Even to look at the ice on the pound and feel the cold mortimer blowing was sufficient cause for the spectators to wish that they were back in the warm atmosphere of the office where the thermometer showed a more pleasing temperature.
 Both girls have practiced winter bathing every day for the past four months and find it agreeable. not to say enjoyable.

series of successful plays. which with a score of others, brought his totatl to about seventy.
 Aside from the proximity of his birthplace to that of the Bard of Avon. Jones enjoyed few of the other perquisites which would lead to the success he attained. A farmers son. his youth was occu- pied in schools under the English custom. with classes early and late and long recesses, which he used to deliver his fathers surplus milk to townspeople.
 This schooling was terminated when he was twelve and thereafter he lived with and worked for an uncle, following his own studies as he saw fit. and mastering several languages along with the classics.
 His first play was written when he was sixteen. although it was two years later that he attended the theater for the first time. The re- maining years, until his first play was produced when he was 27. he divided his spare time between fic- ton and plays, without success in either.
 He recounted his initial produc- ton feat as follows:
 "Rousby. a fine 1egitimate' actor. who had been having disastrous season at the Old Theater Royal at Exeter. read the piece. Its Only Round the Corner. and was willing to play the leading part Of I would take half the dress circle, the high est priced seats in those days The bargain was struck on the spot".
 Other "snbsidized" plays followed. until in 1879 Jones received fifty pounds for play from Wilson Bar rett, to whose encouragement he ascribed his success in writing melo- drama.
 When his name was firmly estab- lished Jones turned himself to the fight fof publication of plays. He believed that this was the only medium through which the largest part of the public could become acquainted with contemporary drama. This work was not re- warded for many years but finally, in 1924, the British playwright was honored by having many of his owf, works brought out in four volumes. by Little, Brown and Company in this country.
 Seeking the reason for Jones' suc- cess, Clayton Hamilton in his fntro- duction to the collected plays, ex- pressed it as follows:

Before they could envelop his body the garage was a roaring furnace and they were forced to save their own lives.
 It took the united efforts of fel- low employees to keep Lester from returning to the garage to make an- other attempt to save his brother.

BRISTOL MAN KNEW i RICHARD IN ALASKA
(Continued from First PaEe)

The life of Davis, as unfolded to the writer after considerable urging, has, like Richards, been an inter- esting one.
 Born in Arizona . half century ego and raised in Los Angeles, he developed the spirit of wanderlust when a mere boy. His first prospect ing trip. made at the age of II, took him to the Panamint mountains which he reached after a trip through Death Valley. He came out of the mountains at Milford, Utah, and later went through southern Nevada, where Bullfrog and Gold field were located later. He made one trip from a ranch owned by a Mrs. Stewart in the southern part of the state to Muddy River with three burros. a distance of 70 miles between water. He later went to Pioch, New, at that time a deserted silver camp.
 Loses Capital in Oranges
 At the time he travelled through
 
 was made up of Mormons, due, as Davis explained. to orders issued by Brigham Young prohibiting mining activities in the territory over which he held sway to prevent any inroad by Gentiles. Davis. before returning to Los Angeles, prospected in Col orado in the San Juan territory near Durango. In 1895 he lost his entire capital when three carloads of or anges shipped by him from Los An geles to Seattle proved an pnwise in- vestment. Broken financially but not in spirit, he went to Douglass Island, Alaska. across from Juneau, and en- tered the employ of the Treadwell Mining Co.,, the largest stamp mill in the world. Many of his fellow workers struck gold in the Klon- dil.e and had simply hired out until sufficient funds were available for a grub stake.
 Davis went over the Chilkoot pass by way of Dyea. At that time there was no Slagway. Later White Pass was used because it was more convenient. He later prospected at St. Michaels and at Circle City, then went back to Mastadon Creek. named after numerous skeletons of prehistoric animals found in its bed.
 23 Months in Siberia
 Davis was a member of the Gug- genheim Exploration Co.,. which spent 23 months in Siberia. John Rosene and Count Padorski held a sub-concession on the trip, the latter having been at Nome in the early days with Tex Rickard. The Russian noble later went to Gold field, where he was shot and killed for alleged undue familiarity with miners wife. The body was ship ped to Seattle by R me and later forwarded to Nladivostok, Russia.
 Davis today has the hardy ap- pearance of a man of the open. His hair is slightly tinged with grey and his movements are those of one who has been active and still it. He is an inveterate reader and is we'll versed on subjects of the day. He first came to Bristol in 1917 and while he has yielded on a few occa- sions to the lure of travel. he has each time returned. At present he is employed by the Veeder-Root Co. op "surch street.

What shade of powder, rouge

Would orange rouge be too light?
Is it only for blondes?
My skin is dry. / do not Use

agree with you, Renee, that
white powder and dark rouge
are unsuitable for your skin. On
the other hand, rachel is too dark.
Try 'naturelle' shade, and if
this is not just right. blend it
either with shade lighter
flesh-or else shade darker

matches your skin.
/ believe you will find that lin.
stick and rouge with a touch of
yellow in them will blend best
with your eyes, skin and hair.
But the best plan is to match
your natural coloring as nearly
possible.
Rub your cheeks until they
glow, then match their tint in
rouge with the aid of a mirror
and clear light of the kind In
which the rouge will usually be
used.

To En- Out HollOws
DEAR MADAME JERITzA:
To fill out hollows in the neck
and shoulders, is it necessary to
use a special skin food7 Or will
cocoa butter serve the same pur-
pose? DO you think swimming
will help? Does swimming make
one thinner? thank You.
I'D.
Cocoa butter is skin food and
should fill out your neck and
shoulders, If you rub it in every
night before retiring. Warm olive
oil should have the same result.
ANY good skin food would &C.
eonlplish the same purpose.
Moderate swimming or any
other exercise that calls the
muscles of the arms and should
