To Our Patrons
For the sake of those who have not carefully read our announcements, we desire to
request that patrons do not bring small children to the Victoria Theater this week.
NO CHILDREN UNDER 16 ARE ADMITTED
[to see
"THE END OF THE ROAD"
a brutally frank but praiseworthy lesson that every grownup should see.
We make this explanation because daily we are forced to refuse admit
tance to scores of adults who thoughtlessly bring children with them and
are compelled, on that account, to return home.

In a prize question contest. "What
would you do if you had a million
dollars?" a contestant recently won
the trophy by answering that lie
would have a pair of suspenders for
every pair of trousers he owned.
Were you to put this same question to
George Ilartzell, famous clown with
the Mingling Brothers and Barnum
Bailey Combined shows. he would
merely point to his present calling.
For though reputed to be a "million
aire." George still remains true to the
white-tops.
Whether Hartzell is really worth a
million dollars may be a matter of
some dispute. But he is undoubtedly
a very rich man. Mrs. Hartzell is the
wardrobe mistress, in charge of all
the thousands of costumes which
dress the circus in silks and spangles.
Husband and wife have worked shoul
der to shoulder for more than a doz
en years. They have earned good sal
aries, saved their money and invested
it wisely. To-day they own property
in Chicago. Boston and Philadelphia,
and have an income quite .sufficient
to keep them in comfort the rest of
their lives. Should you ask Mr. and

MONTENEGRO
IS DESTITUTE
Women and Children Are
Being Clothed in
Burlap
Ntksich, Montenegro. June 18.—
Montenegro is in a pitable state. The I
inhabitants are destitute. Dwellings 1
are burned or smashed by ffiellrtre. |
The young men are gone. There are j
no tools to work with, no seeds to
plant. The city dweliers have no I
livelihood. Each day the American j
Red Cross gives everyone a kilo of
bread of two quarts of thick, meaty ;
soup, American nurses visit the sick 1
from sunup to sundown, each nurse
attending to about fifty sick persons j
daily.
Before the war most of the cloth- i
ing worn by the Montenegrins was j
made by the women at home, either !
of linen or wool. Only a small num. j
ber of officials and tradesmen used
imported cloth. During the war no
clothing was made and now tho !
home supply is cut off because there
is not enough labor to produce food
and no one can spare time for spin
ning or weaving.
Sacking For Clothes
As a result Montenegrin men, i
women and children are clothed in |
burlap sacking. There is not enough •
sacking to go around and the moun- J
taineers huddle in their huts during ■
inclement weather. When one of j
their number, generally a child, is 1
sent after the Red Cross rations, he ,
or she is supplied by making a ,
roundrobin collection with sufficient j
sacking to keep warm during the I
journey to the relief station.
Malaria and tuberculosis are com
mon and the children suffer much I
from the itch, due to the general 1
filthiness of conditions in the moun- I
tains and mountain towns. In the j
former residence of Prince Mirko,
son of King Nicholas, near Pod- I
goritsa, American doctors and nurses •
maintain a fifty-bed hospital and j
"treat dally about eighty patients. 1
The surgeons' principal work has to I
do with bullet wounds
Maintain Soup Kitchens
At Danilorgrad the Red Cross j
maintains a dispensary. Here in j
Niksich the Red Cross feeds twelve j
hundred persons in Its soup kitchen, !
making no distinction between royal- j
ists and those who favor the Jugo- ;
Slav state. The Red Cross also
cares for three hundred people j
housed in the six rooms of the local |
"poor hours" whose condition is !
most wretched,
At Cettinje the Red Cross feeds j
three hundred people daily in its j
soup kitchens and maintains a hos- :
pital.
Owing to the hostility to foreign
ers shown by Montenegrins almost
the only foreign element found In
the interior towns are American !
soldiers and officers and workers in |
American Red Cross uniforms. The
American Army trucks and ambu
lances are driven by chauffeurs
largely drawn from the ambulance
service in France.
Convalescent Soldiers Tour
Gettysburg Battlefields
Gettysburg. Pa.. June 18.—Twenty
five convalescent soldiers from the
government hospital made their
weekly visit to Gettysburg yesterday I
to be guests of the canteen commit- j
tee of the local Red Cross. The'
party was in charge of Rod Cross |
Field Director Ottis H.- Recbard. I
They were entertained at dinner and!
given a trip over the battlefield, one j
of the battlefield guides givlqg his j
services to explain the field to the!
men.
The dinners served by the Gettys
burg Canteen to the boys each week i
are becoming famous for the cherry
pies furnished as a part of the des- j
sert. and when thev are by some
means left off the bill of fare the
hoys seem disappointed. These
trips have been made weekly since
April.
I be leading a life of idleness, they will
tell you that they tried it once for
just one year—the longest twelve
', months they ever spent.
•| "There's a lure about the sawdust,
jtho blure of the band and the hoop-la
of the rings that was too strong to
i resist." says HartzeU. "We had to get
i; back to it all and we are never hap
liiier than when the 'call' comes in the
, i springtime and we know that we are
~to take to the road for another sea
! son."
1 1 And when the Hartzels "take to the
| road" it is not to be supposed that
. 1 their business interests are neglected.
jMrs. HartzeU is an expert typist and
lit is not unusual for those who fre
: I qucnt the "hack of the scenes" por
i tion of the circus to see her taking a
1 dictation from her husband,
j in addition to her duties as ward
] robe mistress. Mrs. HartzeU is official
j c-haperone with the circus and to her
falls the duty of looking after the
i social welfare of the hundreds of girls
j who take part in this season's gi
, ] gantic introductory pageant. It is
I this, pleasant office that has won her
' i the title of "the littte mother of the
! i circus" All the marvels of the great,
j new super-circus are to bo exhibited
:lin this city Friday, July 4.
SALARY BOARD
j BILLJS PASSED
Important State Government
Measure Goes to the
Governor
The administration bill creating
: the State Salary' Board was passed
j finally in the House at the after
noon session by a vote of 181 to 6.
I There was no debate. The bill
: passed the Senate some time ago,
and is intended to create a board,
• consisting of the Governor, Attor
| ney General, State Treasurer and
Auditor General to adjust salaries
jof attaches of State departments,
•and bureaus.
1 The amendment to the third class
| city registration act defeated Wed
: nesday was reconsidered immedi
i ately after the House met at the
afternoon session and a series of
; amendments was presented by Mr.
j Jones. I-ackawanna. who had ob
; jected to it last week. The hill for
bids registration after the third day.
The House concurred in the Sen
late amendments to the cold storage
I hill, which was recalled from the
, Governor some time ago. Mr. Hey
burn, Delaware, said the amend-
I mcnts would "satisfy everybody."
i The House passed finally without
j objection, the Marshall bill requir
ing assessors to give addresses of
i taxables. The bill is designed to
, locate floating population.

HOW AMERICAN WOMEN*
MAY KEEP FACES YOUNG
"The American smart woman ages
; early, far earlier than the English
| woman," says Christian Miller, F. t.
I„ t.he famous English health expert.
She adds that our climate "so ex
-1 hilarates that you over-exert your
j selves and grow old before you know
it. That same exhiliarattng air dries
I the skin. The skin that lacks mois
| ture grows pale and withered looking
land soon forms wrinkles.
"The American complexion" is best
treated by applying pure meroolized
| wax. which causes the faded, lifeless
cuticle to flake off in minute parti-
I cles, a little each day. until the fresh,
young skin beneath is wholly in evi
dence. Every druggist has this wax;
lone ounce usually is sufficient. Spread
; on at night like cold cream, washing
it off next morning.

I >
Mrs. Kathryn Burns, 1030 Parrish
street, Philadelphia, tells of the won
; derful amount of good she obtained
I through Tanlac. "I suffered from
: indigestion and rheumattsm and a
j leaky heart I experienced short
! ncss of breath and difficulty in walk
-1 ing rapidly. I had pains in the
i muscles and joints, and I couldn't
' sleep right. After taking Tanlac I
j got relief. The gas stopped forming
and my food digested. Tanlac did
me a wonderful good."
