wrongs done by humans. They are, in J California colony in a pretty bunga
short, the poetic justice of a great na- i , w jn Hollywood, and, unlike most of
tion. This charming play win De
shown Sunday at the Arcade.
The fairy episode in "The Marriage
of Molly-O" is a story told by the hero
the very broth of a boy to a pretty
colleen whom he loves dearer than his
life. It is the story of the fairy queen
who has fallen in love wth one prince,
but who is under obligations to marry
another whom she hates. Then a duel
takes place between the two suitors,
;ithI the- e-ood nrince is victorious.
However, the fairy queen is given to I
understand that the one she loves has ,
been killed. So she directs her at
tendants to carry to the victor the
flower of death, one smell of which
means instant death. The good prince
smells of this flower and duly expires.
And when the beautiful queen learns
what she has done she too smells of
the flower.
By putting himself and his rival in
the places of the two princes, and
Molly-0 in place of the fairy queen,
the hero of "The Marriage of Molly-O"
works very neatly upon the
heart of his lady-love; and although
she is loath, through natural modesty,
to admit it, she falls deeply in love
with him.
It is said that there has never been
a play presented on the screen so true
to the national spirit as this. There
are jaunting-cars, land agents, pigs,
cabbage, potatoes, fights and a real
Irish fair with the hero a nobleman
in disguise who does not make himself
known until he is sure of the true af
fection of the girl of his heart.

scissors Miss Thompson attributes the
strange friendship of a certain little
I dog for a certain little eat. When the
dog was a puppy and the cat a kitten
! they were given her by her father.
Each wanted attention at once, so the
fair mistress was in a quandary. She
practically had elected to dispose of
. one when she observed that both ani
mals were following her on a tour
of "hcores dong."

made by business men and a police
official that one of them, a jeweler,
can be victimized of jewels worth
$.ri000. "Diamond Daisy" Doyle (Miss
Stevens) is called in by the police of
ficial to help him win the money.
Then follow a series of dramatic
situation that are unique in motion
pictures. The self-sacrificing spirit of
Daisy Doyle, her great love for a man
who is hounded by the police; the ef
forts of an energetic detective to put
Daisy in prison despite her reforma

aches and pains.

That's why Donn's Kidney Pills are
so effective.
Many La Grnnde women know this.
Rend what one has to say about it:
Mrs. Geo. lltunch, 1706 N. Spruce
St., Iia Grande, says: "Two years ago
I was nearly bed-fast with kidney
trouble. For several weeks, my back
and hips were so painful that I could
hardly keep going. When I got
down, it was almost impossible for
me to straighten up, as my back was
so weak and sore. My kidnoys were
very irregular in notion and the kid
ney secretions caused mo a great deal
of misery. One box of Donn's Kidney
Pills made me feel liko a different
person. Since then, I havo taken
them when I have noticed any trouble
from my kidneys and they have never
failed to do me good."

La Grande territory for many years. One, two,
or even five years' use is not a real test of piano
quality. All of our lines have been thoroughly
tested by our own people of La Grande and

Our method of doing business permits us to

with prices of our pianos (thus guaranteeing
the price as well as the quality) -without fear
that a former purchaser may learn that he has
