Rheurciatio Throat

To Prevent Recurrence.
There arc successful Karirlefi that atop
soreness in the throat, but to prevent their
Incesaant return, the blood must be put In
order. The bent remedy Is S. 8. S., as It
Influences all the functions of the body to
neutralize the Irritants or waste products)
and to stimulate their excretion through
the proper channels.
Rheumatic (ore throat Is a dangerous
Indication, as it means that the blood Is
loaded with more uric acid than the kid
neys can excrete, and may thus lead to
serious general disturbance.
The action of 8. 8. 8. stimulates cellular
activity. It prevents tae accumulation of
irritants In local spots. It enables the
arteries to supply quickly the new red
blood to replace worn-out tissue.
Tor this reason uric acid that finds the
throat an easy prey to Its breaking down
Influence, Is scattered and eliminated. In
other words, 8. 8. 8. prevents chronic con
ditions by enabling; all the mucous llnlnps
of the body to secrete healthy mucus. Its
Influence is shown in a marked Improve
ment of the bronchial tubes, whereby the
liusklness of voice with thick, grayish ex
pectorations Is overcome. 8. 8. 8., well

"v. A. S
Child ac'ors are frequently very
much spoiled. "Baby" Lillian Wade
seems to be an attractive exception,
Dogs Love the Villain.
"hat characters in photoplays are
sometimes entirely different In real
life is exemplified by Carl Stockdale.
Mr, Stockdale is usually cast for the
role of the villain and when ho is an
actor there probably is no meaner vil
lain In the world, and whun he is eith
er hanged or shot at the conclusion of
the photoplay audience alwayB give
a sigh of satisfaction.
Mr. Stockdale, however, in real life
Is one of the kindliest of men. He
has a horse and a number of dogs that
want to follow him wherever he goes.
Whenever he sees a sick or wounded
dog he always takes It home and
cares for It.
All of which goes to show that
you cannot pick a villain by his make
up. Actress Motion Picture "Fan."
Miss Ruth Stonehouse, whose fame
as a motion picture actress Is world
wide, is herself a "film fan." Miss
Stonehouse was talking to some
friend the other day, when one of
them said:
"I should think that you would get
so dead tired of motion pictures that
you would hate to pass a theater."
"No, you're wrong," Bald Miss Stone
house, "and, in fact, I am probably one
of the greatest motion picture fans in
the world. There is hardly a night
passes that I do not go down to our
neighborhood theater and watch the
entire bill. Every character in the
picture Interests me. I watch closely
everything they do."
Successful Scenario Writer.
Elaine Sterne, winner of the Eve
ning Sun $1,000 scenario prize, 1b a
New York girl, and though she has
only been writing photoplays barely
nine months, she has managed to win
for herself a wide success in this field.
She was educated in New York, and
having always in mind an ambition to
write, took up special courses at Co
lumbia In English and English liter
ature. She gained her knowledge of
photo-play technique by a close study
of the plays as presented on the
screen. Writing, she believes, is a
"stick-to-it-ive" game, in which one
must sacrifice much to accomplish
anything.
Actress Has Right Idea.
Marlon Leonard, one of the few pic
ture actresses to own her own studio
and have her special company, Is now
starting to make pictures along rather
original lines. In the first place, each
picture will be long enough for an en
tertainment, but, more Important than
that, the picture will not be, as
is now the case with all others, of an
arbitrary length. Every play or story
will be presented for what it is worth.
This will do away with the pruning
and padding which hurt so many pic
tures. Actor In Convict Garb.
For one of the realistic scenes in
"The Toll of Mammon," it was neces
sary to secure views of convicts at
their daily toll. Director Harry Hand
worth was fortunate enough to get
permission for the use of one of New
York's greatest prisons and some very
unusual pictures were taken. Gordon
de Maine, leading man, was forced to
become a convict for the time being,
i.nd later laughingly declared that he
had made several friends among the
Inmates. '

William Gillette will soon appear In

Ever since we observed that the prin

"'No, she wa'n't,' says Jim.

Binoculars Reveal Pirates,
When John Ball, steward of the
schooner Eagle Wing, at anchor in the
Delaware river, oft Cooper's Point,
Philadelphia, stood on the wharf and
swept the river with his binoculars
to pick out his vessel he discovered
river pirates at work stripping her.
He appealed to the police tug and
that craft hurried to the side of the
Bchooner. Half a dozen men who
were in a launch alongside the Eagle
Wing fled, but Henry Sels, who was
aboard the vessel, was arrested and
locked up.
Sels Is charged with disposing of
tho schooner's property to the rirates.
He declared himself to be one of the
crow, and contended that the goods
wero his own. Tho steward, however,
told the police he had never seen the
man before and Insisted upon his

Organ Notes From a Piano.
At a conversazione in the rooms of
tho Society of French Civil Engineers
in Paris, visiting British engineers
were Introduced to a new invention of
two Frenchman, M. Maitre and M.
Martin, a piano In which the notes are
produced by the wires being set in
vibration by an electro-magnet Instead
cf being struck by hammers. The
mechanism Is operated In the usual
way by a keyboard, but, Instead of
dying gradually away as they do with
ordinary piano notes, maintain their
volume as long as the key Is pressed.
The effect produced is similar to that
of an organ, and makes of the piano an
entirely new and different Instrument

SOME FREAKS OF GRATITUDE
Woman Found She Had Promised
Larger Reward Than She Could Be
tow Young Man'a Railroad Pass.
At a Now York subway station re
cently a woman lost a $500 diamond
ring, which was duly restored to her
upon the advertised promlsi to pay
the finder a reward of $200, t'hen the
ring was taken to the owner by tho
finder she found that she had prom
ised more than she could fulfill with
cash. So she had to pawn the ring to
make good.
This 1b not by any meuns a solitary
case of odd recompensing incidents. A
Tow months ago a Philadelphia woman
lost a pet dog, She advertised for
two weeks dally, offering a sum out of
all proportion to tho worth of the anl
nml according to current dog rates.
Her pet was brought to her door one
morning and the reward claimed be
fore delivery. She was unable to pay
and was in tears when tha finder re
fused to aocopt her promise to pay
later as reason enough for leaving the
dog.
A compromise was reached at last.
Shs signed a paper relinquishing all
rights to the dog for a period of six
months. The animal's temporary own
er entered him in every dog show
within a radius of a thousand miles
and was reported to have made a tidy
sum In prizes.
The daughter of a Western railroad
president was boating on Lake Michi
gan last season, when, In exchanging
Beats there was an upset, and she was
In peril for a time. A young fellow
jumped from a nearby launch and res
cued her. Her father effusively
thanked the rescuer and asked him
how much cash he might have the
privilege of bestowing upon such a
brave man.
The young fellow Indignantly re
fused to consider the value of his serv
ice In dollars and cents. When pressed
to name some other reward he finally
made It known that he'd sighed for a
pass on the president's railroad all his
young life. Ho would take an annual
pass, but that was all. When the pres
ident explained that It was not lawful
to Issue him one, he Just said: "All
right, good-by," and started off. But
the president Induced him to como
back, and found a way out of the diffi
culty by giving him a Job on the rail
road in order tlffit he might lawfully
use a pass.
Monument to a Woman.
There has Just been erected at
Bievres, France, a monument com
memorative of the patriotic spirit and
services of Mile. Dodu, a telegraph op
erator, who, after receiving a modost
recompense following the war of 1870,
"obtained some years later the military,
medal and afterward the cross of the
Legion cf Honor, Now 44 years hav
Ing elapsed since the war, It is denied
that she was entitled to these honors,
One of the alleged services was that to
save capture by the Germans Bhe hid
the Morse telegraphic apparatus be
tween the two mattresses of a bed
ridden neighbor, but It is denied that
she was ever taken before a council of
war and condemned by a German tri
bunal. It Is even said that the whole
dramatic story was Invented by M.
Villemessant, a Journalist, on the bor
der of Lake Enghein, to which place
the young telegraphist had been sent
after the war. But Mile. Juliette Dodu
thanks to the Journalist, had sub
stantial recognition while living and

Old Scotch Church of Kelwlnlng.
One hundred years ago the remark
able steeple cf Kelwiniag church, in
Scotland, collapsed and fell to tho
ground, fortunately without injuring
any person. For several centuries tho
KelwirJng church, or abbey, had been
regarded as one of tho architectural
gerr,s of Scotland and Its steeplo was
remarkable both for its height and Its
'artistlo design. The church dated
tack to about the middle of tho
tweirth century. In 1530 the edifice
Buffered considerable damage at tho
handu of zealous refarmers, who, fired
by the sermons of John Knox, plun
dered and laid In ruins many cf th9
abbeys and monasteries throughout
Scotland. These acts of vandalism
formed a part of their campaign to
supplant Roman Catholicism by
Protestantism, which they finally suc
ceeded in bringing about through an
act of parliament passed In 1567.
Tuberculosis in Egypt.
Modern research has established the
fact that tuberculosis, both of lungs
end benes, was common In ancient
Egypt more than 3,000 years ago.
Not even in diseases, apparently, is
there any new thing under the nun.
There are grounds for believing that
the ancient Pharaohs suffered from
malaria, and had appendicitis now and
then, and their Instruments prove that
most aliments of the eye known to
the oculists of today devastated the
tanks cf the Nile twenty centuries be
fore the birth cf Christ.
Where the modern world may claim
novelty is in ths successful treatment
cf disorders which our ancestors were
obliged to endure.
