I she had burned up every ounce of
! coal.
The ship Boon found herself in an
i ice pack, the outer edge 'of which
seemed to grow farther and farther
away until it became an immense field
extending to the horizon in every di
rection. To get out of this barrier without
fuel for the engines was impossible,
so the Captain began feeding to the
flames first the furniture of the ship
and the bulkheads and whatever other
woodwork there was aboard to keep
up steam until the open sea was re
gained. To accomplish this required 10
days. After .putting into St. Johns,
New Foundland, to recoal, the Loch
Tay resumed her voyage to New
York, encountering new storms and
head winds lasting to the time of her
arrival here.

MARGUERITE CLARK A MARVEL
OF VERSATILITY
Superb in Famous Players Adaptation
of Romantic I'lay, "'Mice and Men."
What Marguerite Clark lacks in
stature she more t(h(an makes up for
in charm and ability. The little Fam
ous Player star has given many in
imitable characterizations to the mo
tion picture screen since her deser
tion of the stage, among the more
recent of wihrich are Nesta in "Still
Waters," and the dual tilo (roles of
the adaptation of Mark Twain's mas
terpiece, "The Prince land the Paup
er," in which she proved that she
could make a sturdy little boy when
the occasion demanded, as well as tine
most exquisitely delightful little girls
of all ages, for the presentation of
which she has ibeoome famous.
Now Miss Clark Has added to hor
accomplishments the 'role of Peggy in
tihe adaptation of Madeleine Lucotte
in Ryley's celebrated play, "Mice and
Men," which to the Paramount Pic
ture at the Arcade tonight duid to
morrow. With the name of Poggy are
associated the performances of such
distinguished actresses aa Annie Rus-1
sell and Iady Gertrude .Foifres- Rob
aiitson, who presented tihe play in New
York and London, respectively.
In order to invest the production
witih the proper Southern atmosphere,
inasmuch as the scene of the play is
laid in the South, tihe Famous Players
flotit Miss Clark and a supporting cast
to Savannh, Qa., under the direction
of J. iSearlo Dawley. Here ievery
phase of southern amosphere is de
veloped to tho utmost.
In support of Miss Clark there ap.
near such well-know players as Mar-
shlill Neilan, OMarles Waldron, Clar
ence Handyside and Robert Conville,

New York, March 4. Caught in

WHOLE LIFE DANCED IN DAY
The Mayfly Has Gay Time On Wing
While He Lasts
Philadelphia, March 5. Foolish in
sect,! He lives only one day, and
spends the greater part of that danc
ing You. have doubtless been a guest
at one of their dances, held over a
stream on a warm summer's evening.
You have seen the insects in swarms:
leaping up and down in fancy steps
and . intricate figures; You have at
tended the dance of the May Flies. ,
There is a general supposition that
all Mrfy Flies live only for one day.
As a -matter of fact, they will live
several days if the atmosphere isn't
too dry. Then again they may sur
vive only a single night. Even this im
pending fate cannot stop them from
dancing.
This brief lived characteristic, how
ever, applies only to the winged ex
istence of the jnsect. Before they
grow wings they pass through several
stages, from the larvae, which live
in water, through several moults and
transformation. So while it is a May
Fly for only a short time, it exists
for a longer time, and perhaps we can
pardon it if it dances during the brief
period it lives in the air.
The fly has two pairs of wings, one
;pair much larger than the other, and
two ot three long bristle like tails. Its
mouth is small and soft and not made
for eating. The May Fly has no time
to eut he is too busy dancing.

QUESTIONS EVERY MOTHER
o SHOULD ASK HERSELF
At the end of tihe bulletin, as a re
view, the author suggests that at the
close of the day every mother migfht
ask herself the following questions,
to be sure that she has considered
the important things in feeding her
children:
Did eacflt child take about a quart
of milk in one form or another?
Have I taken pains to see that the
milk that comes to my house has been
handled in a clean way?
If I was obliged s to serve skim
milk for sake of cleanness or econ
omy, did I supply a little extra flat
in same other way?
Were the fats which J gave the
child of the wholesome kind found
in milk, cream, butter and salad
oils or of the unwholesome kind
found in doughnuts Bnd other fried
foods?
.Did I make good use of all skim
milk by using it in the preparation
of cereal mushes, puddings, or other
wise?
Wiere all cereal foods thoroughly
cooked ?
Was the bread soggy? If so, was
it because the loaves were too large
or because they were not cooked
long enough ?
Did I take pains to get a variety
of foods from tho cereai groups by
serving a cereal mush once during the
day?
Did I keep in mind that while cere
als are good foods in Dhomselves,
they do not take the place of meat,
milk, eggs, fruit and vegetables ?
Did 1 keep in mind that childron
who do not have plenty of fruit and
vegetables need whole-wheat bread
and whole grains served in other
ways ?
Did each dhtild have an egg or an
equivalent amount of meat, fish, or
poultry ?
DM any child have more than this
of flesh foods or eggs? If so, might
the money not have been better spent
for fruits or vegetables?
If I was unable to get milk, meat,
fish, poultry, or eggs, did I serve
dried beans or other legumes
thoroughly cooked and carefully sea
soned? Were vegetables and fruits both on
the child's bill of faro once during
th"c days? If not was H because we
have not taken pains to raise them
in our home garden?
Did either tho fruits or tihe vege
table disagree with the child? If so,
ought I to have cooked it more
thoroughly, chopped it more finely
or Ihave removed the skins or seeds?
Was the child given sweets be
tween meals, or anything that tempt
ed him to eat when he was not hun
gry? Was he allowed to eat sweets when
he should have been drinking milk
or eating cereals, moat, eggs, fruit,
or vegetables?
Were the sweets given to the child
simple, I. e., unmixed with much fat
or with hard substances difficult to
chew, and not highly flavored?
Was the fosd served in a neat and
orderly way and did the child take
time to chew his food properly ?
