visitors to leave behind tltcin some
written record of their stay has been

bninor of which, however, could scarce

WORK OF THE BEAVERS.
Wonderful Skill and Aotivity of Theee
, Clever Dam Builders.
There are probably few examples of
animal industry and constructive abil
ity more widely known than those of
the beaver every one, carries from his
school days a general notion that bea
vers build dams and other things aud,
though there may be a considerable
margin between popular belief and tho
limits of fact, enough remains to at
tach a high degree of interest to tho
beuver.
With their very powerful teeth they
can cut through a branch three inches
thick in us many minutes. Tho pieces
cut off are held by the teeth uiid fore
paws and carried or dragged to the
spot where they nre to bo used and
tilted into place. The fitting is by no
means carelessly carried out, and tho
beaver seems to have some fairly defi
nite idea of the shte and length of the
piece he needs.
The beaver makes his home prima
rily by burrowing in the bank of n
stream, and the purpose of the dam Is
to maintain the water at a fixed height,
so that the entrance to tho burrow is
always covered as a protection from
enemies.
Though, however, tho Waver has in
telligence enough for the building of
his dam, be has nut suflk'ieut to know
when to stop building, and so be in
creases tbe structure and raises the
level of his pool until burrowing up
ward no .longer serves to keep bis
house above water, ond so he raises
the height of his walls and roof by
building with branches and mud the
well known dome shaped "lodges."

In the southern partof Canada, in

lives a people fur more interesting and
unique than any other class of people
on the western continent. Tlius'e peo

their simple life and community fel

lacking in the hustling and bustling
American.

of which I formed my 'Specimens.' I

Superb at "Molly Makc-Belive" in
Famous Players' Adaptation.
It is very easy tor those who have
seen Marguerite Clark on the screen
in her previous Famous Players pro
ucutions to imagine her teasing her
indulgent grandmother, ordering her
small brother around the house, keep
ing a whole family agog by her im
pudent refusal to stay home, finally
running' away from home, with her
diminutive brother, and commandeer
ing a freight train in order to roach
the city where she intends to search
for a position.
These are some of the things which
she does in the Famous I'layers
Puramount adaptation , of Klearnor
Hallowell AMmtt's celebrated story
and book, "Molly Makc-Believe," in
whiah she is to star Friday and Sat
urday at the Arcade.
"Molly Make-Believe" created a
sensation when it first appoaired in
one of the big national m:guzines and
has ever since been one of the most
popular gift-books at all times of the
year. Those who have read tho story
will appreciate at once that Mar
guerite Clark is ideally suited to play
the role of the delightful little Molly.
Inasmuch as the original story was
woven entirely around a scries of let
ters, it may "be well to explain that
the film, though still retaining the
spirit of the book in its entirety, has
so constructed the tale and intro
duced the comic and dramatic events
in the life of Molly which preceded
the nction of the story, ns to make an
ideal film vehicle for Miss Clark.

y Tuxedo's Grip I
by Walt Mason 0?
Tuxedo is the gripping smoke, a boon to every buyer;
you take your pipe of English oak, of meerschaum,
clay or briar, and fill it with the fragrant weed, the
choicest man can gather; and then you have a smoke,
indeed; and are you glad? Well, rather. Tuxedo
has no kick or bite, suggests no "morning after;" its
mission is to bring delight, and
(ill your heart with laughter.
It caught the sunshine of the
south, when it was green and
growing, and brings that sun-
shine to your mouth, when r
out the smete you're blowing'
"Tuxedo's in a class alone," its
smokers are declaring;' "it has a
fragrance all its own, that baffles
all comparing.". And thus it
grips the men who smoke, and holds their true affec
tion; their trusty briar pipes they w . .
stoke, and never know dejection. cOaxK
