1.500.000 POI NDS OF
MEAT FOR F. S. ARMY

the army quartermaster here for a
monthly supply of 1,500.000 pounds of
meat for the army, it was learned to
day.
The Perfect
Corn Flakes liijggs.
New Post Toasties are not only inexpensive but they bear a new delicious
ness, produced by a new process of cookery—the first to produce corn flakes
with the self-developed true corn flavor.
So fine is this flavor that New Post Toasties are wondrous good eaten dry.
Unlike common corn flakes, they do not require cream and sugar to make them
palatable. Try some that way—you'll appreciate the point, though they're even
better when served with cream or good milk.
These New Post Toasties don't mush down in cream, and they are not
"chaffy" in the package, like common flakes. They're new in form, new in
flavor, and new in appearance. Note the tiny bubbles on each flake—an iden
i tifying feature.
Put up in wax-sealed packages. New Post Toasties retain their oven
crispness and flavor until served at your table.
Have your grocer deliver a package for to-morrow's breakfast.

in a rolling country or forward to ob
servation posts in the trenches, the

j bounded by shell bursts. There might

soon the inferno in that direction was
renewed.
Under cover of the bombardment the
British made numerous trench raids
iast night, bringing in groups of
j prisoners.
The British released gas at certain
j points hut discontinued this when the
weather was found to be unfavorable.

%t the the musical comedy "girl"
Majestic act, The Devil s Daughter,
which features Joe Rolley
and Miss Vera Hall. Mr. Rolley is seen
ias a blackface comedian in the act,

Four other acts. Including a timely

complete the bill. For the last half of
the week, a dramatic sketch, with spec
' ■a 1 scenic equipment, entitled "Meadow
! brook Lane," will be the headline at
traction. The play is by kdgar Allen
' Woolf and depicts life as it is lived in
the rural districts. It is a charming
, little sketch, and is well presented by
a capable company. Grouped around
this attraction are: Belmont and Harl,
man and woman, in a piano and sing
ling act; Hoev and Lee. Hebrew com-
I edians, and two other standard acts.
I Those who have seen Pauline Freder

at the Regent welcome her
as Madge, an
alluring gypsy girl, and the central
character of Israel Zangwill s drama,
"The Moment Before," which is shown
at the Regent to-day and to-morrow.
Following the story as it is unrav
elled. we find Madge married to a brutal
gypsy, whom she abhors with all her
heart. While hunting on the private
property of the Duke of Maldon. Madge
and her husband. John, are confronted
with arrest. Harold, the youngest son
of the Duke, sees the attractive maid
in distress: hearing the charge against
them he pardons the captured couple.
Fascinated by each other, Madge and
' Harold meet several times and are
i finally caught by John. A fight is
avoided by the quick wit of the sirl.
i After a quarrel with her husband, in
which he Is subbed, Madge seeks the
' mansion of Harold, fearing the wrath J
of her victim.
From this point to the climax the
story increases in interest. The sup
porting cast includes Thomas Holding,
Frank Losee and J. W. Johnston.
Lovers of strong dramatic produc- j
tions should see the newest Fox pro
duction, "A Man of
William Farnum Sorrow." which is
at the Colonial Appearing at the
Colonial Theater to
day and to-morrow. The story fea
! tures William Farnum, the man who is
said to receive SIOO,OOO per year for his
; work on the screen. The picture is
based on the celebrated stage success,
"Hoodman Blind." and deals with a
man who marries one of the two sisters
' who look exactly alike. When he dis
| covers his sister-in-law in the arms of
a stranger he assumes* that she is his
wife and leaves home. After wander
ing from place to place in an effort to
find a solace for his grief, he eventual

Informs him of the fraud which has
