the back when I ran off the front
porch," De Lor told Pszanowski. "I
could feel the sting of it when :t
emerged from my breast. I went to

and the wound healed up all right.

De Lor's gun.
An anonymous "tip" to the Coitn
cil Bluffs police said De Lor was

efforts of the police to locate him
were fruitless.

"PHOTO 'PlAY. OFPCRINOJ FOR TODAY
MAE MARSH, appearing in
"Spotlight Sadie" at the Muse
has an interesting and telling
photodrama of an Irish girl in New
Vorlc She is Sadie Sullivan, de
scribed as "a whimsical product of
Old Erin," who comes to New York
and in time embarks on a theatrical
career, becoming, by reason of her
shyness and aloofness, "the saintly
showgirl" in a dashing musical
comedy. Contrasting sharply with
her innocence is, the worldly wis
dom of her associates. This is
cruelly brought to her attention
when she falls in love with a young
man claimed- as the especial proper
ty of the leading lady. Sadie learns
that her natural tastes have been
used to exploit the company,
through the press agent's activities.
A startling solution comes cat of
this tangle in which Sadie finally
triumphs.
Geraldine Farrar, supported by
Milton Sills and Thomas Santschi,
is appearing in "Shadows" at the
Strand theater. Miss Farrar as
Muriel Barnes, wife of a New York
financier, is happily wedded, but
she never told her husband of her
dance hall days in Alaska for fear
her happiness would be wrecked.
When Craftely seeks to gain her
husband's support in a mining
scheme, she sees the first cloud
or shadow appear upon the horizon
of her married life. Craftly recog
nizes the financier's wife as the
dance hall girl whose picture his
partner, Jack McGoff, carries in an
ticipation of her return. After be
ing warned by his wife Barnes re
fuses to invest in Craftley's scheme.
Craftley telephones her and calls her
by a name which reveals his knowl
edge of her past. He orders her,
at peril of having him learn of her
now forgotten life, to persuade her
husband to enter the deal. She ex
tricates herself from the complica
tion after many serious situations.
Charlie Chaplin appears in one of
his famous laughmakers, "The
Bank." The Pathe news weekly is
also shown.
An interesting love drama is in
terwoven in the sordid life of San
Francisco's-Chinatown and a clean
up campaign by the city's finest in
"The Midnight Patrol," at the Rialto
theater. Thurston , Hall portrays
Terrance Shannon, sergeant of the
Chinese vice squad, in the leading
role. Rosemary Theby plays the
part of Patsy O'Connell, the young
woman in charge of the Chinese
mission house. Wu Fang is plot
ting with Jim Murdock to keep the
police from interfering on the night
AT THE
THEATERS
ORPtfEUM patrons were favored
yesterday with another big
time vaudeville program.
Each act had merit and several won
unstinted applause.
"The Heart of Annie Wood," is
a musical allegory with poetic dia
logue and a little dancing to add to
the interest. Edna Pendleton, in
the title role, portrays a country
girl who has to decide between go
ing to the big city and raising the
dickens, or remaining in her coun
try village and caring for the chick
ens. She chooses the latter course,
which proves thatf Annie was a wise
little girl. The act is artistically
presented by a company of five
young people.
Bert Baker provoked continuous
laughter by his own one-act farce,
"Prevarication," in which a riot of
domestic entanglements are de
veloped and cleared up.
Unusual interest attends the
"Shrapnel Dodgers," in "A Night in
a Billet," on account of the per
sonnel of the act. Sergts. Blake,
Parker and Cook and Corp. Healty,
Canadians, were all "over there."
One suffered a paralyzed arm and
another is almost bereft of sight.
The act goes big on its merit.
Bailey and Cowan, animated in
strumentalists and singers, received
several encores yesterday after
noon. They are a bit more clever
than the usual run of musical acts.
William Smythe is the tenor who
signs his way into favor. Johannes
Josefsson gives a thrilling exhibi
tion of "gliina," the national art of
self-defense in Iceland. Strength
and dexterity are combined in a
manner which is a revelation. Burns
and Frabitoo are amusing in their
Italian-dialect skit, "Shoo's." The
kinogram and Orpheum travel week
ly motion pictures are interesting.
"Fit to Win" is a propaganda

film, in a sense; it is more than
that, however, for it is instructive
as well. It presents facts that most
men are familiar with, but in a way
that drives home certain wholesome
truths, and in addition it carries
some further information that all do
not possess. Plain terms are used,
and forceful statements are made in
simple language, that any may un
derstand. It is neither sensational
nor salacious; merely a plain warn
ing to the inexperienced or unwary
of the dangers that lie in wait along
the road of indulgence. The tale of
the five soldiers around whom the
story of the film is formed might
happen in any of its incidents; per
haps did happen in most. In this
regard the simplicity of the appeal
makes it the more penetrating. As
part of the campaign aimed at min
imizing if not eliminating social dis
ease this film, which was prepared
under, government supervision for
use iii the army, and now is being
shown under government auspices,
ought to be valuable. It was viewed
yesterday by as many men as the
Boyd theater could accommodate at
each presentation, and probably will
continue to draw crowds all the rest
of the week.

"Micky" is coming to the Bran
deis theater Friday, April 18, for an
engagaement of six days, to delight
the fans ana show them the best
comedy since "Tillie's Punctured
Romance." It" has thrills, romance,
heart interest and youthful charm
chucked into it in wholesome quan
tities and one would be a grouch,
indeed, who did not feel the impulse
of its appeal.
"The Common Cause," the first
big "after-the-war" screen produc
tion to be exhibited after the armis
tice, is to be shown at the Bran
deis today, Tuesday and Wednes
day. Herbert Rawlinson and Sylvia
Breamer, popular young stars, are
featured at the head of a cast which
includes Huntley Gordon, Lawrence
Grossmith, Charles and Violet
Blackton, children of the producer;
Phillip Van Lorn, Louis Dean and
Mile. Marcel, a well-known French
actress.
One of the outstanding features
of "The Common Cause" is the fine
comedy that is introduced. Law
rence Grossmith, the famous Eng
lish comedian, is the leading fun
taker, and with a poilu and a
Fisnch girl, produces some of the
most enjoyable comedy the screen
has ever seen.

BUSINESS POOR
IN 17 INDUSTRIES
Eleven Obstacles to General
Prosperity Enumerated by
Manufacturers in Replies
to Questionnaire.
New York, April 13. Only five
out of 22 principal industrial groups
throughout the country reported a
condition of general prosperity in
replies to a questionnaire sent to
its 4,400 members by the National
Association of Manufacturers.
A digest of the replies, issued to
day by the association, showed that
16 out of the 22 groups into which
its membership was divided report-
Led business below 50 per cent of
normal pre-war conditions. The
seventeenth, leather, and leather
manufacturers, reported trade about
equally divided between , fair and
good. .
In response to a request for sug?
gestions to help general prosperity
the replies enumerated a total of 11
obstacles laying in the path of a re
turn to normal conditions.
Obstacles to Trade.
Michael J. Hickey, who prepared
the digest for the association, placed
the 11 in the following order of im
portance, estimated according to the
relative emphasis laid upon them by
the association members; '
(1) Delay in signing the treaty
of peace. 1 ,
(2) General high cost of labor
and material.
(3) Sudden cessation of war
buying operations by the United
States and foreign governments.
(4) Hand to mouth buying by
jobbers, retailers and consumets
awaiting expected price reductions.
(5) Continued government con
trol and management of railroads,
etc.
(6) Sudden imposition of heavy
war revenue tax burdens on in
dustry. (7) Labor unrest, agitation and
industrial strife.
(8) High prices of wheat due to
government guarantee.
(9) rUnemployment and poor
distribution of labor forces released
from naval or military service.
(10) Delay in settlement by fed
eral government of claims 'for pay
ment under informal war contracts.
(11) Partial shutting off of im
portant European markets, due to
import trade embargoes by Great
Britain, France and Italy.
What Is Needed.
The digest thus summarizes the
opinions of the association members
as to what is needed to promote
national prosperity and a return, to
sormal conditions:
"Stop war time extravagance; re
turn the railroads and the wires to
the owners; modify taxes on in
dustry; let the government bear the
losses on wheat the foundation of
food prices; abolish war-period reg
ulating agencies; let increased pro
duction justify high wages; have
the government pay its war bills;
inaugurate public works; educate
the public in the elements of eco
nomics." The digest does not give a very
optimistic outlook in respect to im
proved business conditions for this
year. After remarking that the pro
duction of iron and steel is univer
sally regarded in business circles as
the most reliable trade barometer, it
says that the replies from this in
dustry show trade in a state of com
parative lethargy and prospects for
1919 not bright.
Oppose Government Ownership. '
An overwhelming percentage of
the members, 100 per cent in seven
groups, and above 95 per cent .in
the remainder, declared themstlves
opposed to any form of government
ownership and urged the return of
the railroads to their private own
ers. Government regulation was
approved in 80 per cent of the total
replies received.
The labor problem was dealt with
in three questions;
"Do you favor or oppose a legally
constituted national board for the
adjudication of labor disputes?"
"Are you in favor of legislation
imposing legal responsibility 'on
trade unions?" i
"Do you favor or oppose the re
peal of the La Foilette seamen's
act?" " .
The vote on the first question
showed 64 per cent in favor of a
national adjuciation board, but some
important qualifications were made.
The digest' declares that the com
ments showed general dissatisfac
tion with the presetit national war
labor board on the ground that it
has conceded too much to the labor
side.
The greatest unanimity shown on
any question was in regard to the
placing of statutory responsibility
on trade unions for their contracts
and the acts of their agents. Less
than one-half of one per cent of
the replies were negative.
The opposition to the repeal of
the La toilette seamen s law was
also very small, being less than 7 1-2
per cent.
Strawberry Lovers
Should Investigate
Everbearing Variety
Those who wish a dish of straw
berries out of ; season -should not
pass up the chance to get a start
in the everbearing variety this
spring, says R. H. Howard, head
of the department of horticulture,
University of Nebraska. While the
everbearing variety is not a heavy
producer, and can hardly be called
profitable for commercial purposes,
unless one has a market that will
pay a big price, they do produce
well for homeluse. ;AM through the
summer arid : the ,fall until hard
frost a little patch of them will pro
vide many a family dish.
The university has found the
Progressive to be a good ever-bearing
variety. Several varieties were
tested at the university farm. The
Progressive withstands the hard
winters well and yields as well or
better than most others. It is dis
ease resistant, especially to ieaf
spot diseases.
Everbearing strawberries can be
set out any time now. The piants
do well a foot apart in the row,
with the rows from two to four feet
apart. Unless the plants are extra
ordinarily vigorous they should not
be allowed to bear the first year.
Flowers will appear soon after they
re set, and should be removed.
Late in the summer, if the phnts
show vigor, they sometimes cm he
allowed to bear.
Not more than year-old plants
should be set out. Such plants
can be recognized by their white
roots.
Immediately after the first hard
freeze in the fall the plants should
be well covered with straw, to pre
vent thawing and freezing of the
soil.

HAD SUFFERED S.IX YEARS
"After all these years that I suf
fered, Tanlac has done me so much
good that I'll praise it the longest
day I live," said Mrs. Marie Thomas
who lives at number 309 Warner
Avenue, Peoria, to a Tanlac repre
sentative a few days ago. .
"My health began to break down
about six years ago," continued
Mrs. Thomas, "and I took all kinds
of medicines in the " hope that I
would run across something that
would help me, but nothing did, and
I kept getting worse all the time.
I was not only in a badly run-down
condition, but my liver and kidneys
bothered me terribly and my stom
ach got so bad that almost every
thing I ate disagreed with me and I
would have terrible pains after
every meal, and I was worse off if
I ate anything that was the least
bit greasy.
I also had rheumatism, and the
pain from it at times was so awful
I could hardly bear it, and some
times I'd nearly fall and would have
to catch hold of something until
the pain got easier. .
"I'll always remember the day
that I bought my first bottle of Tan

we had gone -to Sutliff & Case's

"It is wonderful, and when I stop
to think what a terrible condition

a torture, it all seems like a dream,,
because I am now free from all
misery and my kidney and liver
troubles are all gone and I feel
