3EDROOM FARCE
IS DUE HERE GOON
“Parlor, Bedroom and Bath.” the
screen farce which sdt3 forth the
tribulations and misadventures of a
model husband who won his wife un
der a false pretonso of dovilishnoss,
is scheduled for its first local show
ing at the Coliseum Theater tonight
a*i’ on ajuin Friday nigh'.
(For one cf the longest and most
hilarious seasor.3 a comedy has ever
kinown, “Parlor, Bedroom and Bath,”
written by C. W. Bell and Mark
Swan, and produced in the theater
by A. H. Woods, convulsed New
York; and those who have had the
opportunity of seoing pre-release
»howing3 of tho production in pic
tures, with an all-star cast, assert
that the play has gained rather than
lost in hilarity in the translation to
the silver sheet.
Tlie situation—or at least the cen
tral situation, for there are any num
ber of them—deals with Reggie Irv
ing who for many years had sought
to win Angelica. This young woman
wanted a man just the opposite of
what her own name implied. She
wanted a wild one, and 3ince Reggio
had no idea of how to be wild, had
no inclinations toward sowing even a
little "patch of tho untamed oats, lie
perforce sought outside aid. He
wrnt to Polly Hathaway, society re
porter on the scandal sheet, anil
asked her to use dark polish on hi3
reputation,.
Ruth 'Stbnehouse enacts the breezy
resourceful giTl reporter; and Eugene
Pallette, who was tho innocuous Billy
Bartlett in "Fair and Warmer,” star
ring May Allison, and who later was
Seen.with Bert Lytell in "Alias Jim
my Valentine," plays Reggie. The
part of Angelica is deftly and de
lightfully enacted by Kathleen Kirk
ham, who, after this production, will
form and appear in special pictures
made by her own company. Henry
Miller, Jr., son of the famous aetor
manag'er. has also an important part
in "Parlor, Bedroom and Bath."
FIVE COUNTRIES VISITED
IN MAKING “CABIRIA”
Five countries. Involving journeys
to two different continents, were
visited in the making of "Cabiria,”
the Italiain photoplay which is being
presented in a new edition at the
Palace Theater for the last time to
night.
©o inststant was he that every
detail should' be accurate that Gabri
elo d'Annunzio, tho poet-soldier who
r
wrote the scenario and directed most
cf the scenes, had his company
travel to Switzerland, Sicily, Spain
and Africa for those scenes that did!
not have their locale In Italy.
To followers of the photo-drama
familiar with this story it is easy
to realize the need for extensive
travel in making tho picture. The
scenes of Carthage were actually
taken on the African continent. The
crossing of tho Alps by Hannibal's
army was filmed both in Spain and
in Switzerland. Sicily was the loca
tion for the eruption of Mount
Etna as well as for some of the
domestic scenes in the earlier part of
the picture. Tho burning of the Ro
man fleet and tho scenes of Rome
were taken in Italy.
"THE FLAPPER" \T
COLISEUM SATURDAY
Olive Thomas in another of the
“baby vamp" roles that made her
famous is promised in "The Flapper/1
a delightful Sclznick Comedy, which
is to be shown at the Coliseum The
ater at the matinee Saturday and
on Saturday might.
“Tho Flapper” is just another “Sev
an toon.” And you remember that
"Sever,t'een” was a Booth Tarkington
vt ory that pain tod the first faithful
picture of a bitty sufferinf his first
romance. "The Flapper” had been
raised in a very strict atmosphere
and she longed for the jazzy climate
of ihe wild and wicked world.
So she is sent to « boarding
school. Her pose as a woman of the
world went over big with her school
mates. Her ambitions to be wild led
her into a flock of scrapes, which
reached a climax in a robbery mys
tery and a thrilling' expose.
■‘FATHER TOM" AT
PALACE TOMORROW
The Palace Theater will present
next Friday and Saturday, the new
Playgoers’ feature. “Father Tom," In
which the distinguished character ac
tor, Tom Wise, is starred.
“Father Tom" is a clean and
wholesome drama concerning tho
every day life in a rural community
where the only smudge on an other
wise spotloss town is “The Inn,” a
roadhouse.
Tho s'o’-y toll3 simply, vet dramat
ically, tho efforts of Father Tom to
make "Thj Inn” a respectable place
that th'cy cam be proud of; of his
interest end match-making part in
tile romance of Bob and Margie; and
of his efforts to pay off a mortgage.
"’Father Tom” propounds no belief,
upholds no creed and proves no
moral. It Is just a picture of the
ev.ery day occurrences of life told In
such a way that it can be appre
ciated and understood by young and
old; by mem and women.
PICTURE FOR ALL AT
COLISEUM NEXT SUNDAY
* The man.i.genwV- <>f (ho Colisotim
TIi oiler will present next Sunday
and Monday nights, "Shipwrecked
Among Cannibals.” It was first pro
posed to show tliiA picture during
the week and charge extra prices,
but in order that all may aee the pic
ture, on account of Its great educa
tional features, the production will
be shown on nights when all can at
tend the theater—Sunday and Mon
day, and at the usual prices.
A motion picture that had no scen
ario! Such is "Shipwrecked Among
Cannibals." Not one of the cast had
a minute's direction. Mr. Edward
Unommle and Mr. William Alder of
tlio Universal Film Company, who
were shipwrecked on the coast of
Hutch New Guinea, took the scenes
as they went along. Tho results are
far more thrilling than if they had
used a manufactured plot.
What ^scenarist -or director could
write a story as strange as tire daily
habits of these weird people, whose
woman disfigure themselves for the
sake of beauty? Of children, who at
9 and 10 years of age, appear as 40?
In tho midst of a tropical storm
that almost wrecked their apparatus,
these two men stood bravely by their
camera and while the lightning
st,nick near them and tall palms
crashed at their feet, cringed out
hundreds of fegC of film, the like of
which never had been equalled.

BELL IS TOLLED;
WINDOWS BREAK
—
Largest Bell in America Is of
No Use — Rung Once
Since Jan., 1896.
CIXCINNATI, O, Jan. 18.—The'
largest bell^ in America anil the sec-'
l ond larg.?t6t bell in the world is lo-’
1 catea in Cincinnati and hangs sus
i pended In the belfry of the St.
Francis do Sales church here. While
' no verification of the presence of the
I famous hell in Moscow. Russia, is
available since the incumbency^ of
'the Soviet regime, it is believed that
► the largest hell in the world still
| remains intact there,
i Tile bell here has been rung bit, •
once. Thet/wa.3 in the early part of
.January, 1-896. just 27 years ago,
w hen its obstreperous tone shattered
1 windows in buildings near the church
and it was agreed that the tower
| was in grave danger of collapsing.
, Since then 'it has he m tapped only
•by a large hammer, the bell’s clapper;
I remaining in -a vertical and dormant
| position for safety sake.
| Cast in Cincinnati in memory of
ILs donor, Joseph Buddeke, a former;
| Cincinnati merchant, the bell was
hauled to its present location by 40
| teams of horses. It weighs approxi
mately 30,009 pounds and is nearly
112 feet high and 10 feet across its
i rim. The cost of tile bronze memo
j rial was $10,000.
Tiie tone of the ball is E flat, and
■Were It lo be rung its soun 1 could
1 he heard within a radius of 15 miles
of Cincinnati. But with the simple
process of ■striding it w'th a ham
I mer, the sound is no louder than
| any other bell.*, The hell rests 125
loot above the ground.
ARAB’S GIFT TOO
MUCH FOR AIRMAN
LOXiDOX, Jan. IS.- .Queer s!- riea.
nro (eld by members of the Royal
A'r Forces stationed in Irak.
Recently am officer with a small
parity of men went into a remote;
part of the desert to establish an
; emergency landing ground. They
' bufilt a camp on the spot, ami this
attracted the attention of an Arab
; tribe, who were. «t the outset, In
i dined do be auspicious.
Tty showing conoid oration and do
ling small kindnesses for the chief
and his men the airmen ingratiated
(thomselveR, and soon tho relations
I hat woe n the two were of the most
| friendly kind.
i Indeed, tho chief of the tribe be
,rime almost too friendly, far, when
i the party made preparations for
leaving, he sought to give oire of
i his daughters in marriage to the
officer.
The latter tried to point out that,1
much ns he appreciated the offer,
ho was unable to accept, as he hoped
one day to make a girl in England
h!s wife. The chief could net un
derstand why the R. A. F. offloer
should not have more than one wife,
and the ‘Situation seemed likely to
become embarrassing.
Them the officer thought of a ruse.
He told the Arab that he could not
accept tho daughter until he had
been granted permission of thoso in
authority in Mesopotamia.
He explained that ho would set out '
to seek this, and that, probably, he!
would return fft- the girl. And the!
chiefs daughter is no doubt still1
wai'.ftjr for tho coming of the "bird
man.”

TO DARKEN HAIR j

i Look Young! Bring Back It* Na-,
tural Color, Gloss and
Attractiveness
Common garden sage brewed Into'

; will turn gray, streaked and faded i
;hair beautifully dark and luxuriant.!
! Just a few applications will prove
a revelation If your hair Is fading,
streaked or gray. Mixing the Sago
Tea and Sulphur recipe at home,
' though, Is troublesome. An easier
way is to get a bottle of Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound at
I any drug store all ready for use.
This Is the old-time recipe improved
'by the addition of other ingredients.I
While wlBpy, gray, faded hair Is{
not sinful, we all desire to retain
;our youthful appearance and at
•j tractiveness By darkening your
I lialr with Wyeth’s Sage and Sul
' phur Compound, no one can tell,
\ because it does it so naturally, so
'evenly. You Just dampen a sponge
or soft brush with It and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by mornlAg all
gray hairs have disappeared, and,
after another application or two,
your hair becomes beautifully dark,
glossy, soft and luxuriant.
