That the Page of Presidents, soon to be issued by The Star as an education al and advertising feature, is attract ing wide attention was attested yes terday by a letter from Prof. J. G. de Roulhac Hamilton, of the chair of his tory in the University of North Caro lina, at Chapel Hill. Dr. Hamilton was discussing the number ofi living men who have been President of the United States and ne calls attention to the fact that from March, 1861, until some time in 1862 there were the following living Presi dents: Tyler, who died in 1862; Fill more, in 1874; Pierce, in 1869; Van Bu ren,l in 1S62; Buchanan, in 1868, and Lincoln, who was then President. These and other interesting ques tions are beiner discussed ' widely in -rnnnfttiftn with tVi 'P9? of PrPKl- dents. ht none are more? interesting than the White House weddings. Gro ver Cleveland is said to be the only man. to marry in the White House, but, of course, it was meant he was the only President. Lucy Payne Washington was the first White House bride. She married Judge Todd, of Kentucky, and Dolly Madison was married to Representa tive John H. Jackson, of Virginia. Ma ria Hester Monroe, married Samuel i Lawrence, governor of New York. At that period Washington was a town or only 8,000 population. The marriage of John Adams, . son" of John Quincy Adams, and his cousin, Helen Jackcon, the fourth White House wedding, took place in .1826. During Andrew Jack son's : administration three weddings were celebrated, the fifth, sixth and seventh.

Polk, and Emily and Lewis Randolph. Following this group comes Letitia Tyler's -marriage to Wil liam Waller, the eighth- in the White House.1 Nearly 40 years -later the ninth wed ding took place, and Nellie Grant was married to Mr. Algernon Sartoris, of England. The tenth bride, Emily Piatt, niece of President' Hayes was married to General Russell Hastings. Ten years later, amidst a wealth of flowers, Francis Folsom, the 11th bride, mar ried Grover Cleveland. In' February, 19Q6, the 12th marriage took place, when Alice Roosevelt married Repre sentative Nicholas Longworth. The historic list is brought down to date by the marriage' of Jessie Woodrow Wilson to Francis Bowes Sayre. She is the 13th White House bride; then an other daughter of President Wilson married Secretary of the Treasury Mc Adoo, making the 14th bride of the White House. The Star's .

The wonderful sale on this prep aration since first .iritroduced in Wil mington, and the remarkable results following its use have made J.

" A,:-. V '- This is a strong guarantee, but J. Hicks Bunting Drug Qo.-have seen so many of their customers who a few weeks ago looked like walking skele tons become plump - and well, solely through the use of ..Samose that, they feel, they cannot say too much to in duce people to try it. This marvelous flesh-forming food -is assimilated as soon as it it taken into tb.e; stomach, makes good, .rich blood, tones, up the .weakened . system, helps to, assimilate the food and makes the , j user plump, well and rosy. t A wire connecting with the bomb was placed over the track so an engine's wheels set off the bomb.

Today the regular mid week change of bill will be made, when Follette and Wick'-s Victoria Girls, quite the merriest and most graceful bunch that has yet come down, the Wilmington amusement pike, will be seen in another great fun and mu sical show, "A Night Out." This . at traction, which opened Monday, has certainly scored a big hit, and for many reasons. First, the shows are clean, pretty and neatly presented, and, second, because the company is com posed of some fine principals and a bevy of maidens who "know how to sing, dance and act ; &verly on the stage. The new bill today, "A Night Out." is described as a riot of fun and a great outburst of jolly songs and other pretty musical incidents, that will please all. The songs to be pre sented in this way will all be new and w-ill be of the catchiest kind. The chorus, which as noted, is a rattling good one, will wear some stunning cos tumes, too. This big music" show will be preceded by movies, the greatest 'fun films manufactured and big favorites with the devotees of the movies in Wil mington. The new show opens at matinee this afternoon at 3:30 oclock, and by the way, the matinees are proving decid edly popular, appealing especially to the ladies and children, and the prices are so tiny, being but 5 cents for child ren and 10 cents for adults. At night the scale of- prices is also low. Seats In the balcony are 5 cents for children and 10 cents Jfor adults, while the or chestra and circle are but 10 and 20 cents. "The Master Key" Bijou. Opening this morning at 11 o'clock and continuing for 12 solid hours, the Bijou theatre will be thronged early and late with the countless thousands of amusement lovers who are follow ing the world's greatest serial photo play drama, "The Master Key", in which little Ella Hall and big Robert Leonard are making world-wide fame. And in the ninth installment, pre sented today in two full reels of thril ling photoplay, will be seen some of the most wonderful work of this cou ple - that you have yet witnessed through following the preceding eight chapters of "The Master Key." Chief among the interesting and exciting in cidents is a hand to hand fight between John Dore and Harry Wilkerson, in which Dore comes out the victor. The Master Key deeds are in pos session of Wilkerson and his band. He sends Drake to Silent Valley to take possession of the mine, while they re main in Los Angeles temporarily. Here Ruth Gallon meets a young English man, heir to a title,, but penniless, as most such persons are. , He takes a great liking to' the little heroine, and they are constantly together, while The New Baby is World's Wonder Every tiny Infant makes life's per spective wider artd brighter. And what ever there is to enhance Its arrival and to ease and comfort the expectant mother should be -given attention. Among the real helpful things is an external ab dominal application known as "Mother's Friend." There is scarcely a community but what has its enthusiastic admirer of this splendid embrocation. It' is so well thought of by women who know that most drug stores throughout the United States carry "Mother's Friend" as One of their staple and reliabxe remedies. It is applied to the , abdominal muscles to relieve the strain . on ligaments and tendons. Those who-haves used it refer to the ease and comfort experienced during the period of : expectancy; they particularly refer-to the' absence of nausea, often so prevalent as a result of the natural expansion. In a little book are described more f ully j the many -reasons why "Mother's Friend" has been a friend indeed to women with timely hints, sug gestions and helps for ready reference. It should be in all-homes. "Mother's Friend" may be had of ajmost any druggist, but if you fail to find t write us direct and also write for book to Bradfleld Regulator Co 403 Lamar Bldg., Atlanta, Ga.'. U v : John Dore is moving heaven and earth for . the girl he loves. N .Xiittle does he ' dream, as he . leaves Ruth in the care of 1 the Englishman, that later on it will be the means of wringing his very heartstrings, torturing his own soul. But we are moving too fast. This part of the plot only begins today, sand will be followed up through the remaining six episodes. A mammoth Nestor comedy "All Over His Biscuits," follows on the bill, and. features that popular pair, Eddie Lyons and Victoria Forde, while there is still another big comedy, a Mutual, "Sid Nee's Finish", featuring Sidney Bracy and Fan Bourke. Remember, it is on at 11 o'clock. "Million . Dollar Mystery" Day. Once more, and to. the great delight, the big thrill 'of 'ine zolks of Wilming ton this is "Million Dollar Mystery" day at the New Grand, same meaning thaf today, as the feature of a big double bill (always a great double, show mid-week) the New Grand will offer the 20th episode of "The Million Dollar Mystery." Today's episode. in two reels, of course, is entitled "The Secret Warning," and it is a thriller all the way through. ,It;is something really massive and spectacular and will prove the best yet offered of this great Harold McGrath sensational film ser ial, the screening of which has been hailed with joy and enthusiastically en dorsed by the amusement-lovers of Wilmington. Yet this is not the only big feature at the New Grand today. Besides this special headliner there will be offened the latest Vitagraph comedy, "The Hair of Her Head," in which will appear those big favorites of filmdom, Sid ney Drew and Jane Morrow. It is juslf a riot of laughter. Another feature- of today's great double bill will be the latest Hearst Selig Pictorial Review, the big- animat ed newspaper which, ambng other things, flashes the latest war scenes. There are two things to remember today. One is that no matter the com plexion of the weather the New Grand will be comfortable.
