Dorothy Dix's Screaming Series
The ortermoblle is a kind of wagon
with a sewing machine contraption
Sn front and a smell behind. It also
goes very fast when tt goes, and it
stops very still when it stops, and you
have to pay a man five dollars to come
and project with its insidea and tell
you why.
In ancient times there were no
ortermobiles and people used to drive
horses for pleasure, and it took all
day to go twenty miles, but this was
a iong: time ago, as much as twenty
live years. I expect.
My mamma says that a ortermoblle
is the best way to get into society.
My papa says that a ortermobile is
the quickest, way to get to the poor
house. Ido not know which is right.
Perhaps they both are.
It used to be that only rich people
kept ortermobiles, but my papa says
that now anybody can get an orter
moblle that can raise a second mort
gage.
There are a great majiy different
kinds of ortermobiles. There are
red ortermobiles and blue ortermo
biles and yellow ortermobiles, but
whatever kind of a ortermobile you've
got you always buy a different make
the next time you buy one. You also
brag about the kind of ortermobile
you've got while you've got it, but
when you sell it you knock It, and
say it was nothing but a JOnk wagon.
As a Means of Convenience
The ortermobile Is very useful in
getting people from place to place
quickly. It also furnishes you some
thing to talk about, no if you have
got a ortermobile you are never si
lent In company, for you sit up and
tell how many mles you have driven,
and what speed you made, and how
the police liked to have caught you

for going a million miles an hour.
And folks have to listen to you be
cause they want to tell how many
miles they went In their ortermobile.
My father the ortc-rnioblls Is
also most useful as a fool killer, and
that every year it rids the world of
a lot of pin headed idiots that would
be in sensible people's way If there
were no ortermobile wrecks of Joy
riders.
Ortermobiles makes men very fierce,
like raging lions, and say cuss words,
but they makes ladles very patient
like angels.
When we go out in our ortermo
bile, and all of a sudden It says
p-s-t-n-s-s--, and stops, and my papa
gets out of the machine, and goes
peeking around at its innards with
an expression of Damn all over him,
none of UP dast ask him what is the
matter.
And when the wheel picks up a
tack and my pape has to put in a
new tube, we sit Just as still as mice
because it in not safe to speak to a
man when he is pumping a tire. The
reason there is always a crowd
around the man who Is putting a shoe
on an ortermobile wheel is because
he always looks mad enough to eat
folks alive, and they want to be there
to see him do it.
When my papa is at home he's
good and kind, and minds what my
mamma says to him, but when we are
In the ortermobile he snaps her head
off if she speaks to him. I do not
know why this is so. but It Is so.
Ortermobile make you very popu
lar. You never know how many peo
ple love you. and want to be with
you. until you have a ortermoblle.
That's all at present about orter
mobiles.
"Hardscrabble" 'is taken over, of
course.
The measure will operate similar to
that of the "Hardscrabble" ordinance.
It provides that Front street from th».
south side of South street to a point
sixty-five feet north of Liberty street
and from the south side of Harris
street to the south side of Maclav
street be opened.
This means that Front street will be
j opened to the low water line of the
i Susquehanna. The section west of the
j western curb line, of cottrse, will be
! officially set aside for park purposes
1 after the method that was adopted in
j setting aside the central sections of
State and other streets for grass plots.
"As soon as we are through getting
the "Hardscrabble" data together—
the figures relative to properties which
will be included in the proceedings—
we'll get busy with the parts of Front
street included in Mr. Bowman's ordi
nance." it was said at the City Engi
\ neer's office to-day. "We will hardly
j start the latter work before that,, how.
1 ever, as there is considerable detail
to handle on the "Hardscrabble" Job.
When the Front street data is ready
j the plans, etc., will be turned over to
I City Solicitor D. S. Seitz and he will
| try to reach some satisfactory agree-
I ment with the owners of the ground
| for taking over the park land for the
I city. Where no satisfactory terms can
be reached the City Solicitor will then
ask the courts to appoint viewers, who
will assess the benefits and damages
accordingly.

Fronts, 34 to 42 bust.
The recent variations of the basque give
littleevidenceof the original severity of that
garment and here is a charming one with
sash extensions that is really ideal for the
dressy afternoon costume. It can be
worn over any skirt and it can be made
to match or of contrasting material.
The back is plain, in true basque fashion.
! but the fronts are lapped in surplice
style and carried around to the back
where they can be finished either with
a bow or with looped ends. Charmeuse
. or liberty satin would be handsome for .
a waist to be worn over a skirt of serge
! or fancy silk or, for dressy occasions, over
a plaited skirt of chiffon or crPpe de chine. '
If something very elaborate is wanted, the
sleeves could be of the thinner iraterial 1
to match the skirt. The chemisette and
and flaring collar preferably would be

blended in an endeavor to show wo- I
man's frailty and man's power. A
I young wife's lust for appearances and
i social success cause her to break the
trust reposed in her by an unforgiv

on the rocks of destruction, lost for
ever to love and life. The scene where
she unknowingly meets her husband, In
a house of bad repute. Is one of the
most startling in the history of modern
drama. The production provided by
Harry Von Tilzer, sponsor for "To
day," is complete in every detail, and
the splendid cast engaged includes
such well-known names as Arleen
Hackett. Hallett Thompson, Marie

ERNESTINE M. The prevalence of
falling hair is alarming among all
classes of women. Dandruff Is one of
the main causes of it. Another cause
is lack of nourishment of the hair
roots. The ordinary haif tonics bought
these days merely stimulate for the
time being. These can not stop dand
ruff or make hair grow. What Is need

so that the tissues of the scalp anil hair

' AT THE PALACES—"MOTHER"
William A. Brady presents one of his
productions to motion picture lovers In
the form of Jules Eckert Goodman's
play. "Mother." Emma Dunn was the
star in the play when it was seen 011
the stage, and with "Mother" her name
has always been associated.
The heroine of the play Is the mother,
the head of a family of six children.
She has been the mother of eight, but
she has lost two of her dear ones.
At her husband's death, she finds
herself with money enough to rear her
offsprings; but four years before the
opening of the play, the eldest son has
run away and married a chorus girl.
He has wasted his share of his father's
estate, and to meet the demands of his
wife, he has stolen from his employers.
He forges Ills mother's name to a
note for SIO,OOO. When cornered and
brought face to face with the facts, he
threatens to kill himself. Here It is
the gentle mother who calmly admits
that the signature to the note Is her
own.
Her second son is caught in the toils
of another designing chorus girl, the
sister of the eledest son's wife. The
mother saves her first-born and draws
him to her home again, while the sec
ond son Is also saved from the woman.
Her daughters' love affairs are also set
right by the mother, while she does not
neglect the younger ch'ldren and their
fun.
Mrs. Wetherell sums up her idea of
motherhood and mother love in her all
embracing love, which does not permit
any harm to come to her children, even
though it means suffering and expense
to her. personally.—Advertisement.
MARY JANE E. The removal of
superfluous hairs is accomplished more
easily, quickly and thoroughly by the
use of simple sulfo solution than by
any other means. This simply dissolves
away the hair instead of burning
it off as do other depilatories. It never
leaves a mark, never fails and never
harms the most delicate skin. Any
druggist can supply you with this
splendid article.

get rid of them completely in a few

Is Coal
All Alike?
We have heard many persons say, "I don't
think there is any difference in coal, it's all
alike."
All coal is not alike* Just because it looks alike
is no evidence that it is all alike.
We have a list in our office of more than 300 coal
mines and collieries in Pennsylvania producing coal
of varying degrees of hardness.
The coal from some mines is very inferior in
quality while that from others is excellent.
Anthracite mines produce Soft Coal, Medium
Coal, Hard Coal, Extremely Hard Coal, etc. All
these kind give different results.
We have made a careful study of the coal busi
ness and know which kind is best.
