Life and Letters (Continued from page 21) Joun Gatswortuy’s short stories been collected into one volume bearing the title, “Caravan” (Scrib- ner), and everybody. who has a feeling for English literature should have a copy. One of the tales is en- titled, “The Dog It Was That Died,” and let me take this occasion to reas- sure the readers who have written in questioning my ascribing an Elegy to Goldsmith, in the notice of Somerset Maugham's “The Painted Veil,” that the title is the last line of Oliver Gold- gy—on the Death of a Mad which may be found in any complete edition of his works. Another desirable collection recently published is “The Sunny Side” (Dut- ton), in which are grouped some of the papers which A. A. Milne has been writing for Punch during the last few Baird Leonard. Lire’s Encyclopedia Amateur (Lat. amator, a lover).— Strictly, a person who takes part in any sport or game for the sake of the asure afforded by the occupation not for pecuniary gain. In the ted States, however, an amateur may be deseribed as a person who takes part in a sport and is not known to accept pecuniary gain. There are, of course, benefits from sports which are considered permissible for amateurs. The padded expense account is by far the most popular of these. Second only to this is a four-year course at an accredited university as the protégé of a loyal alumnus. Latterly the field of literary endeavor has helped many a struggling amateur to remain in the line-up. S. L. have years. Bulletin Next Week—The Feminine Number.

A silly story of life in the Follies with some deft direc- torial touches by Monta Bell. Lost—A Wife. One of those French farces of marital troubles, and gen- uinely amusing at that. The Mad Whirl. Mae McAvoy as the sweet little girl who reforms a grot:p of social inebriates. Pretty ter- rible. Kivalina of the Icelands. Fairly interesting pictures of the snowclad wastes. Marry Me. Not representative of James Cruze at his best. Don Q. Probably the most com- letely entertaining picture that has ever been presented, with Douglas Fair- banks to make it more so. The Lady Who Lied. The eternal triangle in Africa. Smooth as Satin. Evelyn Brent in a darned good crook melodrama. The Manicure Girl. All the liter- ary flavor of a Macfadden true story. Introduce Me. Douglas MacLean's best production to date. Night Life in New York. If you are the sort of person who would go to see a picture called “Night Life in New York,” this is just the sort of picture you will go to see. Paths to Paradise. Fast and furi- ous comedy, with Raymond Griffith and Betty Compson as an utterly disarming pair of crooks. The White Monkey. No, I will not subscribe. Siege. A broad-minded girl in a narrow-minded community. How Baxter Butted In. The oc- casionally sympathetic story of a book- keeper who wanted to be a hero. Are Parents People? Very pleas- ant. Grass. An absorbingly interesting Pictorial description of a Persian tribe. For the Louvain Library Fund Wuew the World War closed, the Louvain Library was left a mass of shattered wreckage, and this country promised its restoration. National honor requires us to keep our word to the Belgian people, and, further- more, the new Library is to be a per- manent memorial to our soldiers who didn’t return, the American dead in the Great War. Pretty strong reasons why that Library should be finished! We've given something toward it ourselves— won't you do the same?—to make good America’s pledge. Previously acknowledged Miss H. A.

White Teeth Here is the quick, new way dentists are widely urging Make this unique test. Give your teeth high polish, and fresh new color simply by removing the dingy film that coats them and invites decay and gum troubles. HIS offers you a simple, scientific test—one judged the most remark- able of all dental tests. It will bring out qualities in your teeth you do not realize they have. In a short time you can work a transforma- tion in their color and their luster. Modern science has evolved a new and radically different method which successfully removes the dingy film that imperils healthy teeth and gums. Film—the enemy of beautiful teeth and healthy gums Run your tongue across your teeth, and you will feel a film... a viscous coat that covers them. That film is an enemy to your teeth—and your gums. You must remove it. Tooth troubles and gum troubles now are largely traced to that film. Old-time methods fail in successfully combating it. That's why, regardless of the care you take now, your teeth remain dull and unattractive. New methods remove it. And Firm the Gums Now, in a new-type dentifrice called Pepsodent, dental science has discov- ered effective combatants, Their ac- tion is to curdle the film and remove it, then to firm the gums. Ordinary methods fail in these results. Thus the world has turned, largely on dental advice, to this new method. A few days’ use will prove its power beyond all doubt. Mail the coupon.
