r ers rrom a By Jane MRS. PAGE RETURNS WITH A MAID Chapter 38. Jennie had been gone but a few moments, and I was standing at the window .when I saw a taxi stop at the turn. Mrs. Page alighted and following her was a tall, lankey, woman carrying a rusty black bag. She had kept her word, had brought a maid with her. I slipped into my room. She desired to run things. I would let her. I had fully determined to do no more about the house than I had been doing to help Jennie. "Doreen," Mrs. Fage called. "Yes," 1 replied, stepping into the hall. "This is Mary Fagan. 1 have hired her. Mary, this is Mrs. Page, my son's wife. She will show you your room, and the kitchen." "Come this way," I said quietly, noting the sour-faced, middle-aged woman, so different from Jennie. I showed her her room, told her to leave her bag, then led the way to the kitchen. "You will find enough in the ice box for luncheon," I said. "We have it promptly at once." I walked out of the kitchen. "She had good references?" I asked Mrs. Page. "Excellent. I read them carefully." Did you call up any of the people she had worked for to verify them?" "There was no need," she replied stiffly. "Aside from her written ref erences, I am a good reader of char acter. You will find her a good serv ant, I am sure." "I sincerely hope so; I should hate to have the remainder of your visit spoiled by another poor servant. Jen nie left this morning." At one o'clock the bell jangled noisAy. Mrs. Page put her hands over her ears. "You failed to tell Mary not to ring that thing to announce meals?" she questioned. - "Why, yes, I did forget. Yet if she is a perfect servant, as you claim, should it have been necessary?" "We'll excuse it this time; but please do not let it happen again," she replied, following me into the dining room. "Mary, Mrs. Fage doesn't like a bell rung to announce a meal is ready. Hereafter you will come to the door of the room where we are and say: "Madame, dinner (or luncheon) is served.' " "Not me!" Mary's arms akimbo, hands resting on hips. "I youse want to put on style, youse will have to have more'n one girl." I bit my lips to keep back a smile, and looked Inquiringly at my mother--in-law: . "I'll talk to you after luncheon," she said to Mary. The luncheon was well cooked, but she had given us only what was practically ready had broiled the chops and made a salad. But we invariably, since Mrs. Page's advent, had either toast or hot biscuits of some sort for luncheon. She never ate cold bread. There was no dessert. Jennie always fixed something simple, a custard, or a hot gingerbread for us. "Bring a jar of jam" I told Mary when she informed me she had nothing more. But Mrs. Page declared she didn't care for it, and I meekly followed her from the room. Dinner was better. But her sour face caused Walter to say it took away his appetite and ask where Jennie was. "Your mother insisted I discharge Heari Problems Dear Mrs. Thompson: My sixteen year old daughter was Invited to a party which a girl friend of her's gave. She did not get home until twelve-thirty. I told her that was the last time she could go out with a boy in the evening until she was eighteen years old. She said she did not leave the party until twelve o'clock and she couldn't get away before because they did not serve refreshments until almost eleven-thirty. Two other girl friends said their mothers were very angry too. Do you think I should blame my daughter, or the woman who kept her so late? MRS. C. D." Your daughter could scarcely bo blamed for staying until the party broke up. The hostess should have served earlier so Jhat the children would not be kept out so late. Tho next tiin'e, I would advise vou to let your daughter go to the party with the understanding that she should b' home at a certain time. It would be a shame to keep her away entirely. Do not set the time too early, because it would be preferable to have her father call for her than to have her leave long before the party breaks up. Ml G.

There are many women who find their household duties almost unbearable owing to some weakness or derangement. The trouble may be slight; yet cause 6uch annoying symptoms as dragging pains, weakness and a run-down feeling. Lydia E. Finkham's Vegetable Compound ia a splendid medicine for such conditions. It has in many cases relieved those symptoms by removing the cause of them. Mrs. Hall'a experience is but one of many.

I suppose I don't know anything about 6uch things, but I'd rather have Jennie's good-natured face around and less to eat than that cross-looking creature. Better keep away from her, Doreen. She's bigger than you," he joked in his careless way. "I noticed the bell for dinner and wondered what it meant" "Oh, I'll keep out of her way, all right! Mrs. Page is going to caution her about the bell." "I'll bet she drinks!" he said to me when we were alone. , "I hope she does," I replied; and although he was curious, I made no explanation. "Mary has consented to announce the meals," Mrs. Page said, with a self-satisfied air, as she joined us. "It is all in management, Doreen. Not being accustomed to servants, naturally you fail in knowing bow to handle them." Tomorrow A Disorganized Household. Suburban FOUNTAIN CITY, Ind. Mr. and Mrs. H. S.

AMUSEMENTS

MURRAY The crowds pouring into the Murray theatre give some evidence of the popularity of Hobart Bosworth, the star, whose latest picture, "The Sea Lion," distributed by the Associated First National Pictures, Inc., is showing there. In this film offering, Bosworth returns to the role in which he has been held highest in fan esteem, that of a grizzled captain of seven seas, whose domination knows no laws except those of brute force. In thi3 delineation of the rough character of the master of "The Lair," the star has mixed a quaint contrast in the pathetic father love that finds a reawakening in the final incidents of the story. It is this realistic contrast that puts the stamp of individuality upon the picture more than anything else and marks Bosworth as an actor of the first water. The picture breathes the air of the sea and the story intermingles inherent brutality with a tense love story and heart appeal. A competent cast aids the story, the players including Bessie Love, Emory Johnson, Carol Hoi Iowa y, Florence Carpenter, Chas. Clary, Jack Curtis, Richard Morris, and J. Gordon' Russell. MURRETTE . "Harold Llovd is not a one-man show." Aside from the spectacled comedian's own ability and personality, authorities claim this is the outstanding reason for Harold Lloyd's great success. He has surrounded himself with experts in the line of fun-making: he wins their confidence, and then gives them full credit for what they do. Hal Roach, who has produced the Lloyd comedies for eight years, is also a capable comedy story writer. Fred Newmeyer, the director, is converfant with every quip and angle of screen comedy. Harley M. Walker, title writer, has been putting humor into Lloyd titles for six years . Sam Taylor and Jean Havez, "gag men," are responsible for the funny incidents that are introduced into the pictures. They say of Harold Lloyd in film circles that he is the easiest and yet the hardest man in the picture world to work for. He is easy because he lacks tempermament, is most congenial to work with ,and will literall?' slave to put over what the "boys" give him to do. He is Ihe hardest because the type of comedy he produces will permit only a certain kind of "business" and this business must be clean above everything else.

"Dr. Jack," is being shown at the Murrette, and is one of the best ex amples of what might be called "de luxe screen comedy" ever seen. While his last effort, "Grandma's Boy," was uproarious from start to finish, "Dr. Jack" contains more laughs to its footage, took more time to produce ahd cost more.

' MURRAY VAUDEVILLE Happy New Year, friends! Our motto for 1 923 is:"In Frank we trust, but razz if we must." Happily, the first bill of this new year gives us hope to follow the first part of our motto. With unusual charitableness, we award the headlining plum to not one, but to two acts Roberts and Clark, and Lillian Gonne and company. Roberts and Clark, are not so well known here as Miss Gonne, but they do several noteworthy features. Opening with a setting and drop that mean a great deal to the more than casual observer, the team delivers some well prepared entertainment parcels in the nature of song and dance. Their more melo-dramatic portions are strengthened by the aid of a young pianist, who also shares in the honors. The closing numbers by Mr. Roberts and Miss Clark provoked applause New Year's day even before the novel terpsichorean exhibition could be finished. It's just like turning back the pages of one's life to a scene a year or more ago to see Miss Gonne again as the diminutive, demure, delightful little waif whose worldly lot seems meager o nthe night before Christmas. From the moment her blonde, tozzled head is thrust from the mouth of a goodsized rubbish can to the "fade out," with Miss Gonne being escorted to the rear on the property man's handtruck, Miss Gonne is the cynosure of all eyes. Her whimsical mannerisms and child-like studies mark her for Now Showing: The greatest prescription for worry and gloom.

what she is the best comedienne visiting this city in vaudeville. Roy La Pearl has learned the antipathy of the average audience to the average "aerialist wonder" and he proceeds to disappoint one in what one thinks he's going to do, so that when he doesn't do it one is all the more pleased. Helped greatly by two assistants whose entry into the game is as volcanic as it is! unexpected, he unfolds a comedy singing offering that is a laugh-getter. Holding first is Chief Blue Cloud and company, composed of an Indian brave and a maiden, whose principal feature is singing. The Chief also handles a "mean" lariat. Hobart Bosworth in "The Sea Lion" is the film attraction. MARVIN. WASHINGTON Gloria Swanson not only upheld the claim that she is the best dressed woman on the screen, at the Washington theatre last evening, but she showed a greater depth of emotion than has characterized any of her former pictures. The occasion was the initial piesentation of her new Paramount photoplay, "The Impossible Mrs. Bellew," which, adapted from a novel by David Lisle,, was given a

most forceful direction by Sam Wood. It will be recalled that Miss Swanson went to Paris recently for the purpose of purchasing gowns for use in her forthcoming Paramount, productions, and it is evident that the picture presented last evening bore the fruits of this trip. At all events, it was the most lavishly dressed picture seen here in many months.

the child she loTed more than life itself, the star was given the greatest emotional opportunity of her career, and she has made the most of it. Conrad Nagel is quite effective as leading man in the role of a young novelist, who alone believed in "Mrs. Bellew," while Robert Cain does a striking piece of work as the despicable husband. The two Moore brothers, Pat and v Mickey,, appear as "Lance Bellew" as he was at two different ages, and both are all that one usually expects of them. Others that stand out in a splendid cast are Herbert Standing, June Elvidge, Richard Wayne and Helen Dunbar. TAKES OFFICE AS JUDGE SHELBY VILLE, Ind., Jan. 2. Harry C.
