Mrs. Barney in Hollywood.

"ASHINGTON'S once colorful per-
w sonality. Alice P. Barney, is re-
ported to have scored another success in
Hollywood, where her play, Els Wrong
Right?" received an ovation at the
Theater Mart Playhouse. Writing in
her column in the Los Angeles Times,
Katherine Won Blon says in reviewing
it, 1T moves with the spirit of comedy.
It is brilliantly dislogued; the plot is
dramatic, intensely human and the de-
movement unexpected"

e1tly the sounds he heard made his mouth water. Yes, sir. he felt a little trickle of water in his mouth and it all came from listening u those sounds. His mouth was water ing for the good things that he knew Jimmy Skunk was eating. It was all Bobby could do to keep from going right in there and de- manding a share.
 But common sense kept whisper there" whispered Common Sense. You don't know what dangers may be waiting there. It may be all right for Jimmy Skunk, but not all right for you at all"
 But I want some of those good ies in there,' complained Bobby.
 What good are goodies if you lcse your life or become a prison- rr?" whispered Common Sense.
 So Bobby continued to sit outside and tried to muster up courag enough to go in. Three times he pCked his nose inside and then hastily withdrew it. His courag was not quite equal to it. At last he heard Jimmy Skunk coming toward that entrance, Bobby turned an l hastily shuffled away around the corner Then. when he was sure that Jimmy Skunk was well on his way home, Bobby once more ap- preached that little entrance into the shed of Farmer Browns house. I'm gong right in there" he de- clared 10 himself. But when he | reached the entrance, he dared no more than poke his nose inside, Copyright. 1880, T. w. BuGgess)

Loves Reawakening The Story of Wife's Triumph Over Jealousy

separated as I showed them to you yesterday" she said. You won't need me for a few minutes. will ycu? I have d cake in the oven."
 You blessed little prevaricator.' Her brother smiled at her fondly. But run along. Come back though, il ten minutes at the longest"
 All right" She hurried out Of the door. and Robert Savarin lifted the parcel and took from it two large manila envelopes. His thin, almost transparent hands shook as he held them out to me.
 For her." he said, turning his eyes reverently to Lillian's pictured ones. Then he looked at me.
 "Open them" he said. This one first" He indicated the smaller en- vclope.
 l took the papers from the enve- lope, finding two bank books, one with a savings account of three thousand dollars, the other with T checking balance of a thousand, and
  totaling eleven thousand dollars. They were all in my name, Mar garet Graham, and Robert Savarin's voice said softly:
 Those total the fifteen thousand which l want you to have for your divine charities" he said. But, T should like to feel that if ever any dire need arose in your own life - which God forbid.-you would re- member that your old friend would be saddened immeasurably # you did not use it for yourself Won ycu promise mo that much?''
 If ever such a need arises, l will use 1t gladly" I said simply, for I had not come this long way to thwart him upon an academic point.
 Thank you" he said fervently. Now open the other envelope, which contains the things yeu are to keep in trust for Lillian and for Marion.
 The documents which were in the other envelope were the same as Tn my own, lIlS Sdf lllSS dCSoul-h ah T the checking balance Con q differ ent bank than the firsD were also in my name and were for the same amounts as those in the first. But the value of the securities listed in my name made me gasp.
 "Oh! Robert, this is such a re- sponsiblity." I said. This fortune! Couldn't your sister be made q CO., trustee, or something?"
 A tender smile touched his lips You know Lillian's fiery lnde- pendence better than that" he said. "I do not know-cven though she told me" he checked himself ab- 1uptly, then went on hastily, "dont you know that you are the only per- son in the world from whom she might conceivably some time receive this legacy? It is an unwelcome task, a hard responsibility. 1 know, but won't you accept it - for Lillian?"

 To this end it is necessary to use all the tact and skill we have at our command. We must learn just the right mixture of friendly suggestions and the firmness which admits no refusal.
 Before We set about any definite training it is we'll for us to learn exactly what the many good books OH the subject have to say in orde:- that we may avoid these mistakes which are so difficult to eradicate once our mistaken training has made it's mark upon the childs responses.

 The greatest argument in favor oi carly habit training is that the il dividual only derives q maXimurl ot service from a habit which he has learned so early that it serves him without requiring much con- sCious effort.
 It is for this reason that it is worth while to concentrate q goo1 deal of our attention during the first years of the child's life on such humble attainments as cleanliness orderliness, good toilet habits, good eating and sleeping habits.
 Not only are these things i'm pcrtant in the immediate present as factors in the child's health, but aiso they play q very definite part ir his character development

Nephritis ranks third among the principal causes of death. It is painless disease, giving, except in its acute form, little if any notice of it's presence. Its discovery is not infrequently accidental.
 The sufferer may not know of his condition until sample of his urine is analysed in the routine oi a life insurance examination, or when his eyes arc examined on his complaint of dim vision.
 Acute nephritis is relatively easy to recognize, Usually it is the com plication of some other disease. It's onset and development are so marked that both patient and phy- slcian cannot help but notice it.
 In acute nephritis, there is pal Tor of the skin, swellings in differ- ent parts of the body, and marked changes in the quantity and char acter of the urine voided
 In chronic nephritis the disease may develop so slowly that the suf- ferer may not become aware of it until the damage is far advanced. The symptoms noted by the suffer- CT are usually rather vague, and may easily be ascribed to any of T dozen other more common condi- tions.
 One of the symptoms that shoui, arouse suspicion. though it does not always point 10 nephritis, is the newly developed need to voil urine at night. Frequency or urina- tion may also point to possible dis case of the kidneys.
 The nephritis sufferer also con- plains of weakness. lack of ambi.. tion, headache and dimness of vision.
 Nephritis is said to run in fam- flies" Its insidious character is it's most dangerous element. The health examination offers an excel lent way of guarding against it.

 Trust for Lillian
 I promptly obeyed Mrs. Cos grove'S summons, trying hard not to let her see the reluctance with which l faced my imminent inter- view with Robert Savarin. But sha has shrewd eyes, this sister of the famous artist, and l felt her friend ly. reassuring hand upon my arm. T know" she said understand ingly This is an ordeal for you, and I would spare you if l could But Robert has set his heart upon telling you himself about those se- curities."
 . "Oh, please' I exclaimed, shock ed by her interpretation. DO not think 1 am reluctant to see Robert. It is only that l am-embarrassed- ] think IS the word, by the mission he has given me-
 Mission is just the right wor'l to describe it." she told me. Think ol it as that and it will make it easier for you, if l know you, and | think I do"
 She stepped to an old-fashioned took out an oblong package wrapped in brown paper. I've mad these in my trunk since the lawyer brought them yester day" she said, until just before you came. Then l put them in here, and I had ,11N, them since. 1 think Robert would have liked to keep them in his room, but he didn't want the nurse tc know about them. Of course, she knows there's some important business afoot, but she's discree: and tactful and not bit inquisi- tive'
 The nurse proved the truth of the encomium when Mrs. Cosgrove tapped upon the door of her broth CTS room. She opened it instantly and smiled brightly at us.
 Robert Savarin EXacts a Promise
 All ready for visitors" she said cheerily. If you don't mind I'm going to seize this chance to walk up and down the yeranda a bit. It's such glorious winter morning"
 She ushered us into the room and then went out, closing the door; and l turned to the bed where Robert Savarin was propped up against his pillows, his warm. colored dressing gown reflected in the flush upon his checks, usually so drained of color. At the foot of the bed his portrait or Lillian which was to be mine but which he meant to keep before his eyes as long as he had life to see it, seemed to look at me in reproach at the kindly conspiracy which was be- ing completed against her.
 He turned his eyes from the DOT trait and stretched out thin hand to me.

Bobby Coon is no coward. Bobby doesn't go looking for trouble, but when trouble happens to come his way. Bobby isn't one to step aside. l know no one who will fight with more courage than will Bobby Coon. No, Bobby is no coward. Still, Bobby isn't one to take foolish and needless risks.
 Bobby knew now that Jimmy Skunk was going over to Farmer Browns house every night to get ] dinner He had watched Jimmy cross Farmer Browns dooryard, but he couldn't see just where Jimmy went. When finally Jimmy returned. he was licking his lips. By this. Bobby Coon knew that somewhere over by Famrer Browns house Jim my had found a good dinner. For three nights Bobby kept watch from an apple tree on the edge O. the Old Orchard and saw Jimmy Skunk disappear over by Farmer Browns house. On the fourth night he saw Bowser the Hound and Flip the Terrier go off with Farmer Browns Boy. He knew then that the way was clear for a while; so he promptly shuffled over in the direction Jimmy Skunk had taken. At last he came to the doorstep leading to the kitchen He shuffled along past this. for he could stTi smell the tracks of Jimmy Skunk. He then came 10 the door to the sled back of the kitchen The door was closed. It was clear that Jimmy Skunk had not made use of either the kitchen door or the shed door is he had gone into Farmer Browns house. However, Bobby didn't for a minute believe that he had gone into that house.
 Bobby shuffled along for few steps further and then he paused. Right in front of him was q roun hole. It was a doorway. It opened into that shed. Yes, sir. it did so. !. had been made so that Black Pussy could pass in and out when she wanted to. Bobby sniffled at the edge of it. Then he cooked hia head to one side and listened.
 There was a noise coming from inside. It wasn't q lound noise. l. was the noise made by some on, eating. Bobby's nose told him tha' Jimmy Skunk had gone inside. The sounds he heard told him that Jimmy vas still in there and tha, Jimmy was eating.
 Bobby sat down and eyed tha: hole. He wanted-oh, how he want ed-to put his head inside. Com. mon sense. however. told him that this would be q foolish thing 10 do until he knew more about it. So Bobby sat there and listened. Pres

Instead of sending the. ubiquitous greeting card this Christmas, d dec- o1ative alittle box of matches makes a pleasant change.
 Buy ordinary small boxes of safety matches. Cut strips of or namental paper, magazine covers or any other modernistically de- signed paper in small bits, just the size to cover the four sides and each end of the boxes.
 Glue all the pieces in place anit shellac them all around. This gives that slick, glossy and eXpen- sive look to them, making them seem much more a Yuletide re- , mcmbrance than a simple card would.
 Wrap a couple, or even a singls match box, for each friend. If you arc giving d Christmas party, one at. each place makes a colorful and acceptable favor. They ara very easy to make, inexpensive and pretty. /

HALL OWEN PARTIES REQUIRE
 STOCKS AND WITCHES GALORE,

New York, Oct. 2S.-Have a ren dCzvous with witches, cats, owls an spooks. if you want the Halloween party you are giving the children to be a real success.
 Lights should be dim and orange-toned, the reading lamp should be dressed in witcheG' through her eyes, pumpkin faces or ghosts should cover all other lights, and the whole house be kept spookily dim.
 Provide fancy caps that look Ike cats heads fo' the girls to put on. and owls for the boys. Have 1t thoroughly understood that in an sWer to all questions during games, the girls must meow their answers and the boys must hoot theirs.
 start with Games
 There, is nothing like Il good game to break the ice. Follow the Halloween because you can have contraptions here and there that will emit weird sounds as the lead e: steps on them. Fine anyone mak. ing shrieks and make each one fined redeem his or her fine by some stunt or funny song. A trea" sure hunt is a good beginning, too with each string leading to some favor when untangling is done.
 Halloween would not be itse,f if every single guest did not have his fortune told, his success in love predicted and some under standing of his loved ones char acter given. Have a witch dressed up ghostly, seated in a dark hut in one room, with I caldron of writ :. ten fortunes which she can stir up Az each guest approaches, her bony fingers, which she wears on the end of her own hand under lcng sleeves, should point out dra- matically which folded fortune tha guest should reach her. This way she can keep the boys fortunes on one side, the girls on the other, 50 that each will read right, Each fortune should predict love, tray e!. fortune, change of permanent address, career and character.
 From the fortune teller's room. 1t is healthy to emerge into the room where regular Halloween games are played. Bobbing for apples, eating raisins from a string swinging from the ceiling, taking bites out of doughtnuts attached by strings to the chandelier, peel ing apples and throwing the peeis over the shoulder to see the loved ones initial, all must be included.
 Or a Candy Pull
 If you don't want regular Hal loWeen games, try a molasses candy pull. Nothing is more fun than to give all of the children a given amount of molasses candy and award a prize for the one who gets his or hers lightest and smoothest in a given time
 Old-fashioned games, like going to Jerusalem, charades. post office, drop the handkerchief, grunt- piggy-grunt, and others are gooi fun when well planned. Last, but by no means least have q tasty buffet supper instead ot the usual desultory Halloween doughnut and decorate the dinins room with your Christmas tree candles strung up and down the wall, showing through the eyes of cats or the mouths of owls This gives a pleasantly spooky effect You can get paper, napkins and plates { with Halloween decora, tions It is simple to arrange q hot dish and rolls, pickles olives nuts and hot pumpkin pie anG cider. After a strenuous evening the children will be hungry enough to appreciate real food.
