"The BarKulii" In one itf the fluent PlcturoH In which Mr. Hurt has ever appeared. It Is a HtrmiK drama of the old Went, with the famous star ill) one of -thews- mien, which have so endeured him to the hearts of Amer ican audiences. Full of Bwlft action It drawn steadily to a tremendous climax, which fairly hreathes the at mosphere of the ruKKed Western country. dauimj uHWir Vmll I'min 1irf and Iiclnir Cnislicd by Pony All In the lhiy'K Work ', for JXtrtnir Willlum Hart. ' Any picture In which . William 8. Hart appears Is sure to abound In thrilling aceneir, but one of the mott hair-raising - and . dangerous . stunts which he has ever attempted, will be seen at the Ad cads today, when he appears in "The Bargain." In the character of "Two-Gun" Stokes, a notorious outlaw, Mr. Hart, with a sheriff's posse at his heels, rides out upon a high cliff. Every avenue of escape cut off, he has no choice but to make the leap from the top of the precipice Into the gorge below. Without hesitation, and while the posse Is gusplng In horror, he drives his spurs into his horse and takes the plunKC Together they go crashing down into the ennon. It Is one of the finest pieces of work in thft field of photography, and Thomas . Ince, who directed the picture, Is Justly proud of his achievement-. The inking of this sc?ne very 'nearly ended In a tragedy, for Mr. , Hart wns unable to throw- himself en tirely clear of his horse in making the , fall, and consequently wns pinned beneath It, severely injuring' his leg. As the horse began to -roll, he was in danger of being crushed to death, but fortunately some of the company ar rived at his assistance before It was too lato.

KIrkwood, sccreary of the lnterloil in the cabinets of resi dents (JurfleM and Arthur, while war governor of Iowa, in the year 1861, made a speech from the steps of the old cupitol btiildfng in which hrt said In substance; "These are troublesome times and there are traitors and spies in our midst who would destroy this union. If any man in this state is a traitor to the cause or insults the flag, shoot him in the act, or in the uttering of the word. 1 am the governor. Your pardon awaits you-" What the United States needs at the present time Is forty-eight war gov ernors like .Samuel J. Kirkwood. As a people we have too much ego in our CoPinoH. We do a big thing in a big way but frequently neglect the details. Just now we are on the biggest job the world has ever known and it fs up to us to get down to the materialistic and limitation. We are in France and those who are to follow' have no fear for the months of toil and battle that lie be fore us but we do want to know that the spies and traitors who are seeking to block our avnues of sup plies and munitions shall; not suc ceed. Allen enemies should be watched nnd accounted for. For three nights the writer was with a French pntrcl In one of the largest cities in France, that made the rounds from 10:30 p. m. to 2:00 a. m.

For years Germany has permeated the earth with her spies both mili tary and commercial who preached Oerman efficiency, and took obser vations on the side.

The United Htate gave the worold an Kdison a wizard with a thousand wonders, a Holland with the first submarine (which Germany refused to buy but stole outright), the Wright brothers, the first pioneers of the air. Germany took up the wondrous deeds of these and other great men, dressed them in GermsTn clothes.. and paid to the world: "Behold! we are the efficient" and Faid it so often the world came to believe It. She hired our newspapers to propagate Kultur and pave the way for what haN happened. And Folks at Home. keep your eyes ever and anon on the newspa pers and men who before the war favored the-German cause. The jingle of the dollar help the hurt that honor feel. "The voice of Jacob, but the hand was the hand of Iau." A mother in .Belgium saw a 'Ger man approaching her home. ,he hid her children. The German demanded supper, lodging and brekfast- His wants were satisfied. In the morn ing, to the surprise of the good wo man, he paid her. Hhe said, "How strange I thought ail Germans were bad. I am pleased to knpw that you are a gentlemen. T)o you know that vhen I ffrst saw you I hid my chil dren.'' "So?" replied the German, "I, too, have children. I-et me see yours" Whereuon the fond mother called up the treasures of her heart from the cellar to see them both shot dead at. her feet- In the hiatus of her grief she told the story to her neighbors but now she tells ft to the bars of her window in a madhouse. , This number of "The fipiker will go to many of you, "Folks at Home," Take it to the local paper of your town and afck to hate this article re printed together with the name of the man who sent It to you.
