PATTISON BROTHERS GROCERY "The No-Good Guy." the new Tri-angle-Ince release starring William Collier, follows out the usual Triangle policy of incorporating in one story something for al ages. Therefore, in this film there is ample provision made for the children. Collier, in character as Jimmy Coghlan, arrives home after a wild evening and prepr.res for bed. His valet, hardest-working man in the world next to the proverbial one armed paper-hanger with the hives, tries to put him to beJ. He insists on smoking a cigarette The valet tries to persuade him not to tor tear he will set tho house alnre and. findinir his Dleadinsrs of no avail, undertakes to takehe cigarette away from him. But Jimmy holds it in his teeth, and the valet has a bad five minutes. At last Jimmy gets rid of his trou blesome valet and has his room to himself. He goes for a drink; but just as his fingers are about to close on the decanter, decanter skips away Horn him to another place on the table. Tho glass does the same thing; so at last Jimmy gives it up as a problem too difficult for human solu tion, and prepares for bed. As he is about to put his foot into bed, the bed slips away from him. He goes after it. It plays a game of hide-and-seek with him about a room already crowded with furniture. In short, 'before Jimmy has succeeded in retiring, he has made a last contribu tion to the gaiety of nations and to the children of nations in particular.

I do not know that Viscount Kaneko can foe reckoned among the great men of Japan, but he is certainly one ol her most interesting sons. He has been, prominent in governmental and legislative circles, but he is unpopu lar in some quarters because of his pro-Americanism. No one in Japan understands America and Americans better, and, as he says, he has given seventeen years of his life to explain ing American ways to the Japanese. No wonder that he understands America, for he was educated in the Rice Grammar School ot Boston, in the Boston Latin School and Harvard College, and Mount Desert and Cape Ann are as familiar to him as to any New Englander. He was in college with Colonel Roosevelt and knows him well. "I have camped out with American boys," he said, "and lived with them in their homes. In every home they had family prayers, and at first when they kneeled down I didn't know what to do, but I soonVeamed." In this respect his experience was, I am afraid, unique.

A One-Logged Octogenarian's Feet. Count Okuma's physical courage, too, has often been put to the test, as we have seen, and never more severely ! than at the recent coronation of the reigning emperor, when it was his duty to go up the long (light of stairs lending to the throne on his knees to present to the emperor the address of the people. It would have been a hard climb for a young man with two sound knees. It must hnve been torture to the Count, with only the stump of a leg and the weight of nearly fourscore years added. But he never flinched, and on ten million postcards nnd on as many more souvenir cups, plates, napkins, tablecloths and furoshikis he is represented as climbing toilsomely those stairs, sacred to every Japanese, to the august presence on the throne. It is currently reported that the flesh of his leg was raw long before he reached the top, but no one was al lowed to suspect it at the time. The Christian Herald. Always Look To lie Tride Muk. U. S.
