MEN INVADE SPHERE OF WOMAN'S ACTION
LONDON, Oct. 26—The ancient complaint about women invading the spheres of activity long considered as belonging to the masculine gender, seems about to be reversed. In England men are invading that historic citadel of femininity—the home.
Lady Conan Doyle, wife of the famous novelist, is in the vanguard of the movement that may revolutionize domestic routine and solve the ever-present servant problem. She started staid English householders by installing men servants in roles hitherto occupied exclusively by women.
In Lady Conan Doyle's pretentious country home she has installed a "parlorman" in place of a "parlormaid," a "houseman" in place of a "housemaid" and a "between man" in place of a "between maid." She declares the experiment is proving a distinct success.
"I made the innovation," Lady Conan Doyle said, "not only to solve my own servant problem, but because I was anxious to help alleviate the distress caused by unemployment. I want other women to know that I am pleased with my new system, and I am sure thousands of housewives could be relieved of their worries by following my example. Many men would be only too grateful for a chance to earn a livelihood in this way."
Lady Conan Doyle declares she was forced to hire men for servants after vainly trying to obtain satisfactory women for the positions.
EXPLAINS WHY OUR NAME SUITS
There are two conclusive reasons why the name "American" belongs peculiarly to us. The United States was the first American nationality. Until 1776 along the whole hemisphere "colonial" was the one distinctive title. There was no conception of "American" until the thirteen colonies declared themselves an independent nation and assumed the title The United States of America. Thereupon America began as a distinct existence in modern civilization. Then began a set of ideas in several public directions. A novel view of every human being as sovereign in himself was one of these ideas. The right of any people not only to choose their style of government, but to govern themselves, was an American notion. A thorough trust in the people was another. The right of each child to an elementary education first became an accepted creed here. The fullest religious liberty, though not new in theory, was here first embodied on a large scale. These were distinctively characteristic of a new people no longer colonial, but belonging to the new continent. There was therefore no question abroad of the right of these people to call themselves Americans.

ONCE RICH, NOW FEARS LOSS OF JOB
NEW YORK, Oct. 26—In 1875, Florence Darby, daughter of the then Lord Mayor of London, danced in Buckingham palace—the king her partner.
Today, at 73, she faces discharge, due to age and inefficiency, from her position as matron on a Staten Island ferryboat.
A pension of $24 a month—with her rent now twice that sum—must do in her old age. She spent a fortune of 35,000 pounds, an inheritance from her grandfather, in her girlhood, she says.
She was educated in the select schools of London, Vienna and Paris, studying the fine arts, she said.
"Well do I remember the parties in the days of King Edward VII," the ferryboat matron told Commissioner Harman. "Often I was invited to Buckingham palace to the royal functions, where I danced with the king."
Her grandfather died in 1875, she said, leaving her $187,000. The next year, she says, she came to America to visit and here met the man she later married.
"I suppose I am too old and not efficient enough to continue, and I accept my fate as just a part of the great game of life," she told Commissioner Harman.

NEW YORK, Oct. 26—Demonstration that segregation of sexes is essential to the most satisfactory treatment of tuberculosis has made apparent the immediate need for more room in the Denver sanitarium despite the fact that a new building costing more than $250,000 recently has been dedicated to the work, according to the report of Dr. I. T. Bronfin, medical superintendent of the institution.
The report points out that although the northern half of the second floor and the corresponding wing in the new building are devoted to the care of women patients, never-

FILM MASTERPIECE AT UNITED THEATER
James Oliver Curwood never wrote a stronger or more gripping story than "Jacqueline" of "Blazing Sarriers"; Dell Henderson the well known director, never welded the megaphone with more telling effect, and never was a stronger cast assembled. It will be shown at the United Theatre tonight and Saturday nights. You'll agree that it is a masterpiece. Even aside from the fact that the story is extraordinarily gripping and the production values splendid it is made unique by the most powerful assemblage of players ever gathered together in one production. Lew Cody, Marguerite Courtot, Eiffe Shannon, J. Barney Sherry, Edmund Breese, these are but a few of the monster group of celebrities.
It is a regular James Oliver Curwood story to which Director Del Henderson's masterful treatment has added many new values. Contained therein are a varied assortment of punches, so thrilling as to bring even the most calloused theatre-goer to his or her feet. There is a forest fire, so magnificent that you are going to wonder how it was done. There is a sequence which shows two men in a frail canoe running the most tremendous rapids in Maine, taking of which involved the destruction of six similar canoes and almost cost two lives. There is, but why continue here? Come and see yourself how good a motion picture can be.
On the same program will be shown another one of Harold Lloyd's great comedies, "Hand to Mouth," just one laugh after another.
On Saturday matinee and night there will also be shown the third episode of the greatest and most stupendous historical chapter play ever produced, "In the days of Daniel Boone."

stration that segregation of sexes is essential to the most satisfactory treatment of tuberculosis has made apparent the immediate need for more room in the Denver sanitarium despite the fact that a new building costing more than $250,000 recently has been dedicated to the work, according to the report of Dr. I. T. Bronfin, medical superintendent of the institution.
The report points out that although the northern half of the second floor and the corresponding wing in the new building are devoted to the care of women patients, nevertheless there is room to accommodate only 47. On account of "extreme pressure from applicants," says the report, "we had to crowd these wards to accommodate 54. The women's waiting list is now much larger than that of men. This in itself would prove the need of additional facilities, but aside from that it has been found that it is best to segregate the sexes, and there is no doubt that such segregation would result in definite benefits to both men and women patients. It is therefore hoped that some measures will be taken to construct in the coming year a new building to accommodate at least 75 women."
The Denver sanitarium is a nonsectarian philanthropic institution, mainly supported by funds from Jewish contributors.

LONDON, Oct. 26—The Bible is still the "best seller" in Great Britain.
Statistics made public by the British and Foreign Bible society show that during 1922 1,101,574 copies of the Bible were sold in England and Wales. This is 317,000 more than sold in 1921.
In the first three years after the war sales of the Bible in England and Wales fell below the 1,000,000 mark each year. The increase for last year, according to officials of the society, "points to a revival of Bible reading throughout the country."

OLD BUDAPEST HOME
BUDAPEST, Oct. 26 — Fifty-four dollars was the price the FrankIort General Insurance Co. paid for the palace of Count Batthany in this city. The palace is a copy of the famous Palazzo Strozi.
During the bolshevik revolution the palace had been requisitioned and made the headquarters of one of the red government's departments. After the termination of the bolshevik administration the count did not care to use the palace again and sold it for 20,000,000 marks to the insurance company. The price of 100 marks at that time was $1.50. The buying company borrowed the money and paid only the interest. Now that the mark is almost worthless, the company paid its debt, which on that day amounted to the equivalent of $54.

PUP SAVES INFANT FROM POISON SNAKE
GREAT FALS, Mont., Oct. 26 — How the life of their year-old son, Walter, was saved from death when attacked by a rattlesnake through the efforts of "Tige," a six-months-old terrier pup, was told here recently by Mr. and Mrs. Fritz Jatsek, of Roundup. According to the parents the dog stood between the baby and the snake when the rattler attacked the child at the Jatsek ranch, near Roundup.
Three times the snake sprang at the baby, according to Mrs. Jatsek, who stood nearby, too terrified for the moment to rescue her son. On each attack the small dog stepped in the direction of the rattlesnake. The terrier was bitten three times, but its hair-covered skin was believed to have prevented the rattler from injecting its deadly poison fang into the animal.
Mrs. Jatsek finally ran forward and rescued the baby. The dog showed no ill effects from its encounter with the reptile.
According to Mrs. Jatsek the baby was not afraid of the rattler, and once when he attempted to approach closer to the snake "Tige" snapped at him, frightening the boy so that he retreated to safety.
Later in the day the snake was found near the house and was killed by Jatsek. Eight large rattles, taken from the snake's "tail," will be mounted on a leather strap as soon as "Tige" is large enough to wear a dog collar.
