Aloha Oe (Farewell to Thee) Proudly swept the rain cloud by the Cliff . As-on it glided through tho trees Still following with giief the liko, the uhihilehua of the vulu Farewell to thee, farewell to thee. Thou charming one who dwell among the bowers; One fond embrace before ! now de port, i tJntil we meet uguin. The story of u 'brilliant but dissi pated lawyer who becomes tine wop .shippel member of u South Sen Is land tribe' is told in "Aloha Oe." Wil lard Muck is the lawyer and Enid Mackey is the Chieftain's daughter, whom he marries. It bcginH with the turmoil of a great trial. The lawyer, crazed by tirink and the strain of his labors, is shipped by his friends on a sailing vessel so that be may recover his manhood in a new environment. Tho vessel is wrecked and he is the only survivor, being rescued by the natives on a South Sea island. A month later he is shown us a worth less drunkard, who knocks down a na tive and takes away a bottle of liquor. He escapes to the mountain, where he crawls through a envo to the other side, lie is awakened from sleep by falling ashes from . a volcano, and while milking his escape comes across Enid Murkey, the Chieftain's daugh ter. Shu has been tied to a post, where the flowing lava will destroy her, because the nutives believe that by this sacrifice they will appease the wrath of the divinity of tho mountain. Mack fakes the fainting girl to a place of safety and on her roeovcry she fulls down before htm, as she thinks he is the son of the god of the mountain which is in eruption. He soon tires of the idyll -like life and re turns to civilization. As he is passing a restaurant be bears the song of "Aloha Oe"' (Farewell), and is so homesick for the life he ' had left , among the palms and flowers that he ships buck to tho island. There his return is huiled withi joy by the Eim ple duughtecof the Chieftain and the worshipping members of the tribe. This Kural Keystone Is Full of , Laugh1. I As a gay and festive trickster Ray mond Hitchcock will provoke deep and hilarious mirth, joy and glee in the new Triangle-Keystone comedy, "The Village Scandal," at the Arcade thea tre tonight and tomorrow. Hitchcock is a trickster, yes but was there ever such another? Rheumatic Pain Stopped.

Here's proof "I have hud wonderful relief since I used vour Liniment on my knee. To think one application gave me relief. Sony I 'haven't space to tell you the history. Thanking you for what your remedy has done for me." James Ferguson, Philada, Pa. Sloan's Liniment kills pain. - 2"c at druggists. Want Ads.
