Bert Lytell In “The Right of Way,” made from the novel by Sir Gilbert Parker, wears a monocle and looks very dashing. It gives one a very good idea of English and Canadian law and practices in the courts, where the govern ment is referred to as the crown. Lytell is said to be smashing attendance records at the Colonial this week. -1- -I- -IBlanche Bates and Hobart Bosworth are stars In their own names, but they share together without any display of temperament the leading roles In "The Border Legion,” at the Regent all this week.

Confessions of a Bride VM TIRED OF YOUR OUIJA BOARD

"Chrys! I'm tired of thinking about gex In relation to the universe:" I exclaimed. "I’m tired of your own special romance, if you will kindly permit me to say- so! I'm tired of Mexico! I’m tired of your oulja, board and any phase of the subconscious mind! And I’m going to open that bungalow tomorrow! And bake some biscuits for Bob's supper, too!" ‘'You’ve certainly picked out something exciting, my dear, for you must expect to get along without a maid! But I suppose you'd And an adventure In being efficient, wouldn't you?” "Bob is a 100 per cent husband! Why shouldn’t I try to be a iOO per <ent wife?" “You’re going to give value received, I suppose?” “I’m going to introduce honest business methods into the management of my home—if I can,” I replied. “Some job, dear girll” Having retrieved Bob’s clgarets, Cbrys went hack to her favorite nook and novel. After she had gone, I tried to figure out what I meant when I said that I Intended to be a TOO per cent wife. I was very practical about it. Perhaps it was the vision of the fine biscuits I planned to bake which made me center my thoughts upon the service department of my little home. At present there is a scarcity of housemaids. Those to be had demand exorbitant wages and too often give minimum service in exchange. I couldn’t borrow a maid from Mother Lorlmer. She had less help than she required to rqn the big house properly. And once more I was glad that I had been brought up in a modest way in a “country college" town. I had learned to honor myself because I was a good housekeeper. I had learned, also, that housework does as much for a girl’s looks as all the exercises practiced in beauty parlors. So I went on with my plans to move into my own little home, feeling that I was one of the truly Independent brides of the time. If I couldn’t find a maid, I had the will and the skill “to do my own work.” If Bob was happy—and he was sure to be —why, I should worry—about my fingernails! I decided that my little house should look quite different from some of the homes which lately have been turned to chaos by the shortage of domestic help. Sometimes these sadly disurbed domiciles are presided over by highly educated women. I have known college girls who could tell the difference between "hygiene" and “sanitation,” but who had never discovered that order is the homemaker's first law. A littered living room, a many dining room and a dirty kitchen make a poor backgroond for a beautiful wife, but they make an excellent advertisement of the unfairness of some wives. Maid or no maid 1 decided to look to my backgrounds. Woman, ignorant or educated, as always, loved to dwell on ''character" as

Now. after Nancy had cut off his silly black rooster tail with her little sharp scissors, he had seemed to be very happy, and waggled his own little nub of a tail quite contentedly. "Now.” said he, ‘1 can leave Topsy-Turvy Land, and go back home to mv friends in the barnyard and the grubs under the wood-pile. But here he was, quacking again as sadly as ever! So back they hurried to the swamp. "What is it now?" asked Nick, peeping through the weeds. "My tall!” wailed the duck. But the twins could see. very well for themselves. The discontented duck had only lost one ridiculous tail to get another. This time it spread out like a great fan behind him. "I forgot tc tell you,” said the duck, much ashamed, "that I told the '•I told the Fairy Queen I’d like to have the turkey gobbler’s tail, too,” said the duck, much ashamed.

I'm completely disgusted.” Nancy had to laugh. "Fine feathers make fine birds, I’ve heard Mama say, but I like you better plain, Mr. Duck.” "Drake!” corrected tho bird. "My name’s Drake. But that hasn't anything to do with looks, has It?' ,r Well,” said Nancy, "I’ll cut your turkey tail off, too. if you like. But my scissors are getting very dull, Mr. Drake, so please don’t wish again.” The feathers were soon off, and Mr. Drake waggled his own tail happily. “Good-bye, my dears!” he said, as they skipped off down the road, “if I see your pet monkey I’ll let you know.” Nancy and Nick, with their Green Shoes and Magical Mushroom, turned a corner just then, and Mr. Drake's voice was lost in the distance.—Copyright, 1920, N.

her peculiar trove from all the ages, and yet she doesn’t always prove that she has her share of this valuable Inheritance. She doesn't always give value received in her domestic partnership. Many a wife would be irritated and disappointed if a busband were to fail on his Job as a wageearner, and yet that same wife often hasn't the will to acquire the skill of an average housemaid. "It's going to be some adventure to beat the other girls making my home coxy and eomfy,” said myself to myself. ‘‘We could go out t“ a hotel for our meals, of course, but I might as well do my own cooking as sit at a table and wait and wait while somebody else broils the steak.

HE DARKENED HIS GRAY HAIR Tells How He Did It. Mr. J. A. McCrea, a well-known resident of San Francisco, who was called Daddy and Grandpa on account of his white hair, and who darkened it with a home-made mixture, recently made the following statement: "Anyone can prepare a simple mixture at home that will darken gray hair, and make It soft and glossy. To a half-pint of water and 1 ounce of bay rum, a small box of Barbo Compound and % ounce of glycerine. These ingredients can be bought at any drug store at very little cost. Apply to the hair twice a week until the desired shade is obtained. It does not color the scalp, is not sticky or greasy and does not rub off.” — Advertisement.
