DOROTHY QUINETTE
At tho Forrest tonight in "Fads
nnd Fnncies."
In "The Misleading Lady," comes In for
much nnd well-doscrvcd praise as tho
hero.
Mr. Belasco's press agent has dis
covered a new way of nrouslng Interest,
It Is to predict tho failure of "Mnrle
Odllc," because: "Tho Jews won't llko It,
on account of tho convent; tho Catholics
will resent certain features of It; Frank
Itelcher, n German, Is playing a French
gardener; Alphonsc Ethler, a Frenchman,
Is playing a Prussian soldier; the Ger
mans will object to the brutality of tho
Uhlans In tho piece. It seems, then, that
It would most appeal to Swedes."
Life Story of a Play
"Solomon Orundy," written on Monday,
Sold on Tuesday,
Cast on Wednesday,
nehearsod on Thursday,
Produced on Friday,
Itoasted on Saturday,
Hurled on Sunday.
That Is the end of "Solomon Grundj."
BOY "PINCHERS" PINCHED
Frank Admission Quickly Lands Two
Youths in Cells.
The strange youths were carrying bun
dles of feminine clothing from the homo
of Adam Hoffmalcr, 2300 North 2d street,
Just as Adam was nbout to enter tho
house Inst night,
"What's tho Idea?" ho asked.
"Why wo'ro Just plnchln' them," said
one of tho boys.
"Yes, that's It," said the other. And
they frowned at Adam Impatiently.
Two loucj cracks disturbed the stillness
of tho night, and tho two thieves were
lying on tho sidewalk with the feminine
finery scattered nbout. Hoffmaler watch
ed them until a policeman brought tho
patrol.
Tho prisoners said they entered tho
houso while tho Hoffmaler family wero
enjoying themselves In the parlor. They
gave their names as Adam McCrelght,
2353 East Dauphin street, and Amos
Strauss, 2107 East Arizona street. Each
was held In $400 ball by Magistrate
Qlenn at the Front and York streets sta
tion. GUN WIELDER ARGUES CASE
A torrent of Italian resounded through
the Belgrade and Clearfield streets sta
tion today when Mlko Albana, 27 years
old, Somerset street near 26th, was held
in J300 ball for carrying concenled deadly
weapons. Mlko demanded nn interpreter
and through him relayed to tho Magis
trate that ho had always toted a gun and
had never been arrested for It before. Tho
police charged tho prisoner with discharg
ing his revolver in the air near Gaul and
Somerset streets last night because Katy
Wharton, 2107 Fclton street, objected tu
his attentions on the ground that he was
a "wop."
Powerful Signal Lights Installed
Passengers who rode Into town today
beforo the light fog had lifted wero much
interested in tho new signal lights which
have Just been Installed by the Pennsyl
vania Railroad between Overbrook and
Bryn Mawr. Tho system includes lights
of such a powerful nature that they can
bo seen in the .brightest sunlight They
have never been used, before on any
road. Tho system Is to be extended from
Broad Btreet to Paolt, and will entirely
replace both the semaphored In the day
time and the old-style electric lights
hitherto used at night.
Talks to the Fairies
Wind," they exclaimed, "don't you know
how to play 'dress-up' 7 We thought every
body knew that! Why, it's the most fun
of any game in the world 1"
"I know that Is what I have heard
you say," replied Mr. North Wind, "but
I never saw you play It, And I never
heard ydu say how It was done. Bo
how should I know how to do It? I don't
even ltnow whether I would like to play
It!" He got almost provoked when he
thought about how he had been left out
of this pleasant game, and ha, blew around
In front of the fairies' cave ijulte fiercely.
"Be good fairies now," he said, when he
got his breath again, "and come out here
and show mo bow you play." '
No answer.
Then, Just as ha was nbout to call to
them again, he heard a soft little laugh
in tho cave, "What is your Joke?" he
asked, "can't you come out here?"
Again the little laugh. Then one fairy
tuck her head out and said, "How do
you expect us fairies to come out and
play with you when you blow around and
make It so cold we can hardly stand It
In our cave? If you want to play with
us, you must make yourself warm and
pleasant.' And she quickly pulled her
head Inside.
"Now what do you think of that?" ex
claimed Mr. North Wind as soon as ha
got over his amazement enough to speak.
"Who ever heard of a north wjnd being
warm and pleasant? It makes me laugh
to think of' such a thing!" He laughed
and ho howled till the fairies huddled
still farther Into their cava and shivered
a tilt among themselves. "J couldn't be
warm and pleasant If I tried," Mr. North
Wind assured them as soon as he got
his breath- "Can't you oome out and
play with me anyway?"
The fairled thought a minute and then
one of them said, "We can't really come
out and play with you, you're too cold,
but U you'll promise to be as warm and
pleiuant aa you can, we'll tU you our
game." And tMarrow you will bear
wb tl?y told bim.
BOON TO HOUSEWIVES
IN HOME-MADE BREAD
Nourishing Loaf at Three
Cents, in Spite of High Price
of Flour, Within Reach of
All.
Nourishing home-made bread for
S cents a loaf recipe brf Mrs.
William E, Lee, chairman Pure
hood Committee. Civie Club.
Two quarts of flour.
1 cake yeast.
1 tablespoonful salt.
S tcblcspoonfuls sugar.
Warm water enough to make a
stiff dough.
This quantity will make six
loaves, each the she of a baker's
S'ccnt loaf.
Why worry about tho rise in the price
of wheat? Why lie awake nights cudgel
ing your poor brnln about tho elusive
propensity of the r.taff of Ilfe7 Flour may
ndvnnco to M cents a 12-pound bag,
which formerly sold for 33 cents, and yot
bread can be had for 3 cents a lonf. Pro
viding, of course, that you make It your
self. According to Mrs. William E. Lee,
chnlrmnn of the Pure Food Committee
of tho Civic Club, who combines tho prac
tical cxporlenco of years of housekeep
ing with tho theoretical teachings of mod
ern domestic scientists, brood that Is
twice ns nourishing as the kind bought
from tho corner grocer may be made at
homo for almost half the prlco.
"Tho woman with a family," said she,
"could save Just half her bread bills If
she'd follow a good recipe and do her
own uaning. Moreover, her family would
bo Infinitely better nourished.
"One slice of good home-made bread
Is equal in nutriment to two of the best
baker's, nnd 12 loaves that you bako
yourself will equal In actual weight St
that you buy from tho grocer. I know
what I'm talking nbout, becauso I havo
tried I.."
When Miss Edith Bacr, Instructor In
cooking at tho Drexel Institute, was
nuked to give her opinion of tho possi
bility of mnklng bread for 3 cents at
home, sho replied that, oven with the In
creased cost of flour, tho careful house
keeper should bo able to do It, If she
bnked In batches of four to six loaves.
"There Is an art In baking woll, how
over," she said, "and I'd rather oat
bought bread that was well baked than
poor bread mado at home."
Tho successful bread baker, according
to this authority, never destroys the
effervescent qualities of the yeast by
using water that Is hot. It Is always luke
warm and must have been boiled to make
It absolutely sterile. Tho dough should
bo set to rlso In a place sufficiently warm
to mako it double Its bulk over night
In tho morning It is shaped Into loaves
and loft to' rlso ngnln. If baked In n
coal oven at least ono hour will bo re
quired; In a gas oven, from 45 to CO min
utes. Tho oven Bhould be hot at first,
and after 10 minutes the temperature
should be reduced.
' LOWER MERION FINANCES

plied to maintenance of present highways
and tho balance for tho construction of

Tho township will also apply $33,100 for
sinking fund-and Interest charges on
highway bonds. There is also an appro
priation of $20,000 for the Highway Com
mittee to cover contributions of citizens

This makes the total expenditures for
highways amount to more than $130,000.
Tho sum of $32,500 will go to tho police
