circumstances, her signature is a little
premature, for she hasn't given him
up, and I am quite sure has no such
intention.
She Is Vain
She dosn't love the man; she loves
the feeling of possession. She loves to
have a sweetheart; she loves that lit
tle exultation and exaltation which i
come with the pomp and parade of a
lover when other girls have none.
She loves the excitement of being en
gaged; the anticipation of the mar
riage; the orange-blossom spotlight
which Is the cause of more giils mar

BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX
around her. Bearing the high price
mark of the fleeing blessing on her
shoulders, she Is unjustly ranked
higher In her home than the sister
who threatens to become a permanent
fixture, and she likes the feeling.
No, she can't give him up. It would
be too great a sacrifice of vanity and
pride. She would be, as she says,
heart-broken.
"I know," she walls. "I would not
be happy if I married him." Quite
true, she wouldn't. Her love Isn't un
selfish enough for that, and the love
that goes down the married years,
walking hand in hand with happiness
all the way, is the brand of love that
for purity is second to none. It must
bear no adulteration of self, passion,
prejudice or pride. It must be 100
per cent. pure.
It leads those who feel it to think
tittle of self, but always and alto
gether of the one who inspires their
love. Were this young girl's love the
kind that endures she would not be
fretting over the possibility of unhap
piness.
She Must Not
She knows, she says, that she would
not be happy if she married him.
Then there is one thing she must not
do: she must not, marry him.
Neither should she keep him dang
ling around her for the sake of the
Joy she gets out of possessing a
sweetheart. That is unfair to him, and
unfairto her because protracted sweet
hearting, with no suggestion or pros
pect of marriage, causes unfavorable
comment for the girl.
Her heart will not be broken if she
gives him up. The wounds of vanity
are soon healed, and her sentiment is
very little deeper.

"MITT AM) JEFF IX PANAMA"
In "Mutt and Jeff in Panama,"
which was written by Owen Davis.
"Mutt and Jeff" have plenty to do.
They are here, there and everywhere,
and what they do is the signal for
merry laughter, hilarity and mirth.
The company this season is a large
and especially competent one. enlist
ing the services of fifty people who
understand their business and who
are well trained in their particular
field of endeavor. The music and
lyrics are by Leo Edwards and Will H.
Cobb, who have supplied plenty of
song hits, dances and ensemble fea

prices. Mutt and Jeff will be at the

"GIHL OF MY DREAMS"
Honored by the presence of "The Girl
of My Dreams," the Orpheum ought to
be the most popular spot in town this
week. For that's where she's going to
be, frolicking through a dainty comedy
specialty with singing and dancing,
that heads a notable array of Keith
entertainers. In other words, Leila
Mclntyre and John Hyams, late stars
of "The Girl of My Dreams," the musi
cal comedy hit of last season, are back
again in vaudeville for a short run, and
this week Wilmer and Vincent secured
them to play the Orpheum again, the
scene of their first local triumph. For
they will be remembered as ttie clever
stars who presented "The Quakeress"
during the Orpheum's second season. '
On this same bill Lou McConnell, the
funniest girl in vaudeville, and her
partner, Grant Simpson, and several
supporting players, will offer their
newest comedy vehicle called "The
i Right Girl." Miss McConnell is the
, young woman who several seasons ago
had all Harrisburg saying. "Hold onto
your seats. I'm going to sing the second
verse." That this clever company will
prove big box office magnets after they
1 are once properly remembered, is a
foregone conclusion. Also "The Girl In
the Moon" will be an attraction of this
bill. This will easily be the surprise
vocal specialty of the season. Other
Keith hits will be offered by Lewis and
Dody, Brelle's wonderful dogs, Cervo,
and Lawrence and Hurlfalls. Adver
tisement.
AT THE COLONIAL
A splendid comedy playlet called
"Who Owns the Baby?" will head new
things vaudevtllian that come to the
Colonial to-day. The playlet abounos
with laughable lines and screeehingly
, funny situations that are made the
most of by Cartright and Eldridge.
Clever fun and frolic will be provided
by Charles DeFur and girl, and Peter
F. Baker, a singing comedian, is also
I slated to appear on this bill. "In Re
membrance," a splendid Selig film, will
be a special attraction tn the way of
movies to-day.—Advertisement.

WHEN NOTHING
TASTES GOOD TO YOU
You eat simply because you must.
You are troubled with dyspepsia. It
makes your life miserable. You have
a bad taste in your mouth, a tender- ,
ness at the pit of your stomach, a
feeling of puffy fullness, headache,
heartburn and sometimes nausea.
Ask your druggist for Hood's Sar
saparilla. It acts on the stomach
through the blood and also directly.
Its beneficial effects are felt at once.
It makes the rich red blood Jthat Is
needed for perfect digestion.—Adver
