"The Three Muska:eers". "Way Down East" and "The Four Horse, men of the Apocdypse" are among the big natures booked for the Liberty theater at an early showing. The love interest in "Angel Face," to be seen at the Grand theater, is exceptionally strong, there being six pairs in young lovers and the sub-romance be tween the grandmother and the professor counts seven.

I turned defiantly to Lillian when we were ilnally left alone in my room. I have not felt so tbsoluteiy exasperated at every thing and everybody since I was I a small child and my little moth er used to put me In a room alone to get over my tantrums. I had a very vivid picture of the small girl who used to stamp her leet, pound on the door and otherwise exorcise the demon of temper within her until at last the fountains of her childish soul broke up In penitent tears and she Bobbed herself to sleen. I felt far more like stamping my feet. Dicky, at whom my anger was chiefly directed, was out of my reach. My frayed nerves chose Lillian, of all persons, as a taTget. "Welllt" I said sullenly. "I'm ready to be spmked and put ta bed without any supper." Lillian looked at me placidly, nothing ut innocent inquiry as to my meaning written on her face. I had not consciously wished to irritate her, but as I involuntarily contrasted her poise with my own excitement I felt a wild longing to make her angry at me. "Why don't you say what jou're thinking?" I demanded with what I sub-consciously knew was perilously near a virago's manner. "I'd rather listen to it and get it over with than to havo you watching me with that heav- en-preserve-the- innocent-cheeild from-her-own-folly exprepslon. .1 can't help it, can I, If a man who feels that he was the cause of my accident tries to make amends bv sendlne me flowers and try ing to make my convalescence pleasant?" "No." The monosyllable wan In Lil lian's quietest tones. She had turned toward me and was look ing attentivelv at me quite as I she were studying me. Lillian Laughs- "Then what is your objection?" I flared. ; "You needn't pretend you haven't any. I know bet ter." "So do I," she agreed with as tonishing i readiness. "Do you really want me to tell you?" Her voice, I fancied, held a cold disapproval that began to chill my temper. But I threw up my head defiantly. "Yes," I snapped. To my : astonishment Lillian''? face broke into merriment, and she laughed heartily. Then she picked up a hairbrush from my dressing table and held it before my eyes, i "If you weren't a real lady, she said "I'd advise you to throw this through the window. You don't know what a relief the crash would give you. But as vou probably won't adopt such heroic measures I'll propose a substitute; Let me get you out of these street things and into a negligee, and then I'll brush your hair until the kinks come out of your nerves and the tan gles from; your locks. And when you're ready to hear it I'll tell you something nothing very dreadful about this Grantland business." BALTIMORE. Oct. 31. Judg ing a girl's fitness for business by the length of her hair as an em ployment standard, haa little more to recommend it tham th. selec tion of a man because he wears bow tie or a four-in-hand, in ths opinion of Dr. William W, Guth. president of Goucher col lege of Baltimore. While a lit tle vanity is good for any woman. bobbed brains" are a more vital subject than bobbed hair, accord- ins: to President Guth. "It is difficult to see way tnis harmless feminine whim has aroused such widespread discus sion," Dr. Guth added, "unless, perhaps it is true that we delight in making mountains out ot mole hills. For, all the evidence visi ble from a college office points to the fact that the young girl of to- dav is aiming toward a standard not to be compared with uniform coiffures the standard of real usefulness in the home. In the communlay and in the world ot business. "So much has been said about the 'vanities and frivolities of the modern girl that It is only fair to modest, but a man Inf . pants" is downright funny. - !

Mr. O'Brien appears as a strug gling young business man, who. in a sense at least, is tricked into a circularizing campaign by a little stenographer as badly down oa her luck as Is the young business man himself. The results of the simple little advertising plan, al most incredibly splendid, brings the big turning point in the story Because of these results come success where failure stalked be fore. Because of these results come love, romance, and marriage into a life that before had seemed scarcely worth the living. "The Journey's End," a Hugo Ballin production, featuring Ma bel Ballm.

Lillian shot a keen glance at me "Will you keen aulet and let me get these thing3 off?" she re plied with just the right tingle of irritation in her manner to brace me; "When I want any apologies from you I'll turn you ever my knee and make you say them to.the tune of a hairbrush tattoo.
