Big 'Kcith Program Opals Lust Half
of the \"eek's Engagement Today.
The Palace presents a. new Keith
vaudeville today for the last half of
the week. It goes without saying
that this program is one of the better
vaudeville shows. The bill includes
lid Lowry in a novel offering “in The
Ring." Bob Fcrnes & Company. in "A
Lease for Life" is a. sketch that will
put the audiences at the Palace on
the top rounds of the ladder of en-
thusiasm. The Thrce Kirkillos are
performers of more than usual ability
and their program is sure to please.
The Four Miners. 3. male quartet
from the Pennsylvania fields. The
men always rated as singers learned
that vaudeville called them during the
recent labor troubles and they have
probably put their picks aside for-
ever. Patrice and Sullivan will close
the bill with their interlude of
melody. The feature picture for to—

Good Illa‘nnersr
A woman may call on a. man
only on business, such as she may
have. for instance. with her clergy,
man, lawyer or physician.
Such calls are'made during office
hours and the conversation is con-
fined to business matters.
If a woman has occasion to visit a
man's home she is accompanied al-
ways by a. masculine relative or by
a woman older than herself—um.
less she is acquainted» with the
family where she calls.

A Korean girl is not given a name
until her marriage. when she merges
her identity into that of her husband.
During her girlhood she generally

ter of So-and-So; later she is known
as the mother 0 “iii-r sons. .
0n the weddingfi‘day the Korean
bride is heavily veiled; the bridegroom
appears clad in white except for a. gay
waistcoat and a. hat woven from the
hair of his father's ancestors.

muss mas-sin
. ‘ BY JAMES JV. DEAN ’
» The shortest and surest road to the
Lnderstanding is throughigthe vision.
but the cards often master of the eye.
The tru‘thot this was borne in upon
me as I previewed a photopiay called
"Mighty Lak a Rose." A violin. cello
and piano just behind. me played. an
accompaniment. .
In itself this film is of about aver-
age merit. Coupled with sentimental
music it has an impressive reaction on
the emotions. The music-stirred
emotions compel the mind-to accept as»
true and natural situations that would
appear false and artificial in a cold
film. ' . _
Perhaps I'm hypersensitive to vio-
lin music. The most beautiful things
created by man are. to me. "Caprice
Vienneis." playud by Kreislcr. and the
Bach-Gounod “Ave Maria," played by
Spalding.
O 0
Music is. as :1 subtitle of "Mighty
Lak a. Rose" puts it. "the universal
language of the heart. the voice of the
soul." I doubt thr- entire truth of an-
other subtitle. " 1y its melody we are
brought to love and through its glory
we may find even God." The effect,
does not endure for long after the
music ceases. It has been my obser-
vation that those whollnd God only
through psalxn singing and revival
liallclujahs don't hold Him for long.
A strumming guitar or banjo may
bring a. fair maiden to love. but it
takes something more substantial '0
keep her in love.
HOWevel‘, thn story of "Mighty Lak
a Rose" is based on the hypothesis
'that Wicked men and women may be
turned into paths of righteousness by
a. violin. Circumstances cast the lot
of a little blind girl with that of a
bum] or New York crooks. The young-
er one fails in iovemtth H6? and the
others reform. Then it is learned that
tho. girl's sight may be restored for
$1000. The young fellow is caught
after he has stolen. the moncy for the
operation'und goes to tail for three
years.‘ -
\thn he is released he fltids the
gang lender and the. hard-faced wo—
man am married and have a country
home and a baby. The girl's sight is
restored and she makes a brilliant do-
but as a. concert violinist. thanks to a
rich man who has fallen in love with
her. Ami there‘s the problem—did
she marry the rich benefactor. or the
youth who stole the money that re-
stored her sight? One guess. and you
win.

Dorothy Mackaill, erstwhile lcmliui:
woman in the “Torchy” comedies. and
before that. a. Follies girl. plays the
role of the blind girl in "Mighty Lak
a Rose." Her performance is of un-
even quality, but she seems to be en-
dowed with intelligence and inspir.-
tion. James Rennie. leading man. in

HO\V YOU CAN mild‘
The very rust thing that is bl)-
served by the other person when he
looks at you is your face.
You are either radiant or passive;
alive. keen. alert or negative.
’ You are. full of vicacity, or listless.
Your eyes may be the windows of
[your soul. but you can brighten those
windows. ,
Your hair. nose. mouth. chin and
your entire face are expressions of the
care you take.
Your nose is expressive of the way
you breathe. It is impossible to
breathe deeply and have small nos-
trils. It is impOssible to breathe deep-
ly and be lacking in energy.
Your mouth should emit the sweet-
ness that belongs to a. beautiful char-
acter. and your chin. too. should be
strong so that we will have all the
fundamental principles of charm bc~
fore we try to correct the defects of

It you are too stat—and sometimes
this is an indication uf poor health——
there are very simply exercises that
you can take and certain foods you
must go without. so that you can re-
duce.
If you are a. little underweight—-
you should eat of the foods that the~
fat person is not allowed. and also ex~
