Theda Bara Is Star in Tale of Poor
Girl.
The story of a woman who delib
erately takes the place of another she
believes dead, and is called to account
after she has fallen in love with the
man who befriended her, makes Theda
Bara's new photoplay for William Fox
one of exceptionally gripping heart
interest. In "Her Double Life," Miss
Bara plays the part of Mary Doone,
who begins life at a disadvantage, as
a child of the slums. She works her
way to a high position in London so
ciety then comes the discovery, and
all is over.

"When my son Ellis was sick with

him at once and quickly broke up his
cold," writes Mrs. P. 0. Stuchell,

been in use for many years. Its good
qualities have been fully proven by
many thousands of people. It is

"THE REWARD OF PATIENCE"
Reviewed by Genevieve
Motography.
Harris in
Patience was rewarded, after the
sorrows which come to her through
out the live reels of this picture, by a
final union with the man she loved
from the first scene. Louise Huff, in
the title role of this Paramount pic
ture that shows at the Arcade today
and tomorrow plays the little Quaker
maid with a wistful gentleness which
is appealing.
While the story of the play is not
unusual in any way, and the principal
situations have been used many times
before, the marriage for money, the
estrangement of husband and wife be
cause of the former's devotion to
work, the death of the wife and her
lover, leaving the husband free to
marry the girl he really loves, still it
is presented in a fashion so pleasing
and with so many human touches that
it will have slight trouble "getting
by." j
' The beginning scenes in the littl-
Quaker town start the play out well,
especially those containing the chil
dren, the Sunday school episode, and
others. These, and the pleasing ex
terior scenes, are enjoyable. Then
the story shifts to the city, and the
little Quaker girl plays a prominent
part as a secretary in the home of the
hero during his short and unhappy
married career. I
John Bowers is well chosen as tho
hero, Robert Penfield, Lottie Pickford,
who reappears after a long absence j
from the screen, has the role of Edith,
who married Robert for his money,
a bargain both regret. Adolph Men
jou plays Paul Dunstan, with whom
Edith elopes. Kate Lester appears as
Robert's mother. 'The story is by
Shannon Fife.
The Story: Robert Penfield, a civil
engineer, comes to tho Quaker village
of Amity Center to supervise th;
building of a bridge. He and Patience,
a Quaker girl, become good friends,
nnd when the fnther of Patience dies,
Robert recommends the girl as a com
panion for his mother. Patience has
fallen in love with Robert und is
deeply wounded when she learns, at
his mother's home, that he is to marry
o girl of his own class. This girl,
Edith, is in love with Paul Dunston,
but marries the wealthier Robert.
After (he marriage, Robert's
mother goes abroad but Patience re
mains as secretary to Edith. She
manages Edith's affairs and, after a
baby is born, supervises its care whilo
its mothor resumes her flirtation with
Dunstan. Robert, absorbed in his
work, docs not realize tho situation.
Edith is jealous of Patience and of
Robert's interest in her welfare, and
discharges hor. A little later, when
Dunstan inherits a fortune, she plans
to elope with him. The two aro kill sJ
on the runaway trip, and Robert is
free to go in search of Pa'icncc, who
had returned to her native village and
was entertaining thougvits of suicide.

New York, November H. (Spe
cial.) The people of America are not
the only ones who are suffering from
the increased cost of living. We are
apt to believe when difficulties be
set us that we are the only ones who
have to face the problem and who de
serve sympathy. In the necessities and
comforts to which we are reasonably
entitled, however, the advance that
has been made in their force, has not
been peculiar to this country, but ' is
apparently general throughout the
world.
One of the largest banking institu
tions in New York has been receiving
world-wide Toports, and has made up
a statement, that is most instructive
on this subject. It finds among other
things that the advanced cost for the
necessities of life is not confined to
those countries that are even remotely
affected by the war. Increase in cost
has come apparently because it is pos
sible rather than from any justifica
tion. The people of Jamaica have ad
vanced the price for their log wood
to three times what it was a couple of
years ago. Tho indigo growers of India
have made their prices ten times what
they were before the beginning of the
vva. Chinese and Japanese silks have
doubled in price in the last two years.
So on it goes down the list. Even those
commodities where there is the least
possible reason for increase have gone
up tremendously. The high price for
eggs is by no means confined to this
country, nor to those where war pre
vails. Macaroni, cocoa, mackerel and
cheese are universally high, and the
important point is that the increased
figures are quoted for them at the
place where they are grown or manu
factured and the advance in freight
rates and ocean carrying is only inci
dental to the burdens placed upon the
consumer.

TO UNION COUNTY FARMERS:-
For several years I have been working and
planning for easier money to loan on good old Grand
Ronde farm lands.
Finally I have arranged with one of the largest
loaning companies (a company that has $85,000,000
loaned to the farmers of the West) for a real Rural
Credit loan based on a 20-year amortized plan. 20
equal payments of but little more than current in

You pay no commissions, choose your own date
of payment and pay at your own bank. , You can pay
any amount of your loan at any time- This plan
figures you a saving of nearly 3 per cent over the
usual farm loan made heretofore in this county. If
interested call and let me explain fully.
