TUESDAY AFTERNOON, OCTOBER 27, 1925 Verter an Won His Half-Dozenth Bride By Talking Philosophy HOPPER NO LONGER WOOS BY GIVING DeWolf Hopper, the Grand Old Comedian, Wins His Sixth Mate By Talking Philosophy BOSTON, Oct. 27.—The view point of a sixth wife is almost iden tical with tilt” of a first—except that it is more pntiosophieal. And since Lillian Glaser, 29, charming California prima donna, was a sudent of philosophy when she met De Wolf Hopper, C 6, she was well equipped for the trying task of being pointed to as the half-dozenth bride of America’s most married man. This philosophy she was quick to resort to in discussing her romance and wedding. “Please, let us remember,” she said, smiling, “that Mr. Hopper’s romances, unlike those of so many men on the stage, hav e been con fined to his WIVES.” It is also interesting to note that in making this latest conquest, the veeran comedian of “The Mikado” and “Wang,” the stage trouper for half, a century, relied upon such modern weapons as psychological and philosophical discussion. And thus he abandoned his time-honored formula, announced many years ago, which went something like this: “Play diamonds if you would win women. Femininity must be won with gifts.” Styles in wooing have changed. But what the theater world is most interested in is this: Has D e Wolf Hopper, the grand old comedian ban ished himself from Broadway this marriage? Has he allowed love to expel him from the beloved white light zone? These questions rise from the fact that when Hopper was divorced from wife No. s—Elda Surrey—the New York Supreme Court inserted in the Doubled in Size and Now One of the Largest in the World AMERICUS, SAT. 7 NOV. < STILL growing in Size, fiND THE PUBLIC'S CONFIDENCE • M Gorgeous free street DAILY AT 11 A.M.

The ceremony, to be sure, was per formed in Connecticut, M „qite out side of the New York court’s jurisdic tion. But, in the event of a return to New York, what might happen? The couple seems not at all dis turbed. They are keeping house in a pretty apartment here and Mrs. Hopper No. 6 says she is no mean cook. How did it all happen? “I had sung in Mr. Hopper’s com pany in California. I had been im pressed with his intelligence and broad vision,” she relates. “One night I was at a party. I was not dancing. He noticed me and came over and talked. I was studying the philosophies and psychology at the time. At once I saw we had many opinions in common and were inter ested in a number o's similar things. Well, I fell in love with him. Os course I realized the publicity that would result and I didn’t know what my famiy would say—but, I married him. And lam very happy. There was nothing hasty about by decision. I have had a long time to contemp late it.” , Alp, as has been pointed out, Hopper has “married the women he loved and has not professed his love without an offer of marriage:” As for Hopper, he continues his at titud: “A gentleman does not discuss |iis wives—or his divorced wives.” Oh yes—the marital record of Hopper today is as follows: No. 1— Ella Gardner, married 45 years ago. No. 2.—lda Mosher, a chorus girl. No. 3.—Edna Wallace Hopper, “the eternal flapper,” who says of her ex husband that marrying him is the easiest part, “it’s the holding him that is difficult.” No. 4.—Nella Ber gen, opera star, with whom he was marired happily 14 years; No.—Elda Surrey, actress.

More than eighty individuals read in relays of from half an hour to one hour. The California church mem bers averaged one page every four minutes while the local members cut this to three and a half minutes. CATHOLIC LAYMEN MEET IN SAVANNAH SAVANNAH, Ga„ Oct. 26. Catholics from all parts of Georgia come to Savannah Tuesday to at tend the tenth annuual convention f the Catholic Laymen’s Association of Georgia. There were several hun dred at the morning and afternoon sessions, a number of whom were Savannahians, but the response in delegates from various parishes and organizations throughout the state was large. A pontifical high mass opening the convention and the diamond pubilee of the diocese of Savannah at the cathedral at 9:30, was the formal opening of the large assembly. This was celebrated by Bishop Keyes. Other priests of the mass were chos en by local and visiting clergy who afterward attended the business ses sions of the association. 666 it ■ prescription for Malaria, Chills and Fever, Dengue or Bilious Fever.

Dreaded Danger of Summer Complaint Can Be Avoided During hot spells, especially while teething, Baby is easily affected by what mothers call "Summer com plaint.” Food sours, gas forms and the little bowels become inflamed and upset. And, unless treated promptly and properly serious illness may quickly result. In such cases Dr. Moffett’s Teeth- Ina usually gives remarkably quick relief. But, in a few cases the cause may be due to faulty diet or some deep-seated trouble, in which case you should call a baby specialist without delay. Under most condi tions, however. Teethina soon has baby well and playful again, as mil lions of mothers know. Teethina costs only 30c at any druggist’s, yet it is recommended by nurses and physicians.

Taylor, of Atlanta, resident of 102 Ivy street, takes the leather medal for Advanced Winter styles. He ar rived at Grady Hospital today en cased in what the attendants at first thought was a section of the Mauso leum out on th e Marietta Road. So far as a hazy memory would permit, Taylor explained the mystery in away to show, backed by the evidence of his suit, that he had gone to sleep Sunday night in a mortal box while the mortar was soft, the result being he awakened this morn ning wearing a nice hard suit of eon cerete pajamas. When the doctors at the hospital finally succeeded in undressing, and incidentally accum ulating a large lot of worthless build ing material they found Taylor had a cut over his eye and a number of body bruises, which he did not re member having accumulated. He did remember something about passing what looked like a nice soft feather bed in a box somewhere and lying down to rest his weary and undoubt edly wobbly bones therein.
