GREAT ACTING IN PLAY
AT COLISEUM—"DISRAELI"
Ceodge Artl.-s in “Disraeli" demon
Str'ates the supreme fitness of actin';
In motion ■pCctamts. We have grow;]
bo used to ■siMiir.ig pictures that l icit
every aemlbfcince of meting, that Mr
Arliss makes us wish we it mid see
him mutch more often in pictures. At
ftthe Coliseum Theater, last evening,
ttho ipresen t it'ion of the w'wieSy-herald
e*l sween version of Mr. Arliss’ great
eit t sdatgo clwirtat'terfaaitton proved t<
.bo a rare comtbhmtkm of excellent
dieting tby exceHlenit 'players splendidly
directed, and wtfth a story that holds
•bbe olStentton until the last moment.
And Mr. Arliss’ wetting in the tit!"
role demands more praise than space
permits.
“iDl'sratell” is not an htotorical play
Tlie author, Louis N. Parker, merely
igave us a story to illustrate the life
and times at the great English states
m‘an, and at the same time to show
some o>f the prejudice agaJnsrt which
Disraeli was cfrffged to fight in order
ito reach the summit it' his ambition
* —the Premiership. Mr. Parker has
aJccilcTic 1 a plat around the efforts ol
the Premier to (buy Ithe Suez Canal
ab a means wlurufcy England might
dtOend India. The love interest is
(dual, for Disibr’i's great affection
tor hf.s twtfe forms one phase of the
y nomUnee 'in “Disraeli," while Clarissa
and Charles demonstrate their love
. tin a series elf scenes that compare
favorail.’y wi.'h the most charming we
. Have seen on the screen.
V IMr. Arliss dresses his Disraeli with
fidelity, and enacits jilm with a rare
degree of dignity. In the early scenes
he is reserved, and bis strength lie
l in this reserve. Later, ho lets him
1 *eltf go, and the battling spirit ol
t. Itbo man whom Queen V'.i-Btonlu twice
nJatmed to Be" heir Prime'Minister Is in
evidence. Disraeli's treatment of
Hugh Moyers, the banker, after the
1.ititer's collapse in business, Is a
striking bit of uniting, combining both
:ho reserve force and the .pussibua'e
Kutburtsts^, ■imt in the scene with Sir
Mtiithuel Prnibort, Governor of ll
IJ.mk of tint:land, who is commended
! liy the Premier to sign the note giv
ing Alcycr unlimited credit until Par
liament metis—here Mr, Arliss giro*
us the best of his acting, it is very
j douti. ftd whether the screen holds
many moments mnro tense Uiau

HAPPY WOMEN
| Plenty of Them in Juneau, and Good
Reason for It.
Wouldn't any woman be happy,
After years of backache suffering.
Pays of misery, nights of unrest,
The distress of urinary troubles,
When she finds freedom.
Many readers will profit by the
following:
Mrs. J. Malone, 2529 Kulshan St.,
Bellingham, Wash., says: “I can
j hardly describe the misery which I
endured from backache. When I
washed, it feit as though my back
were breaking in two and terrible
pains struck mo in the small of my
back and nearly doubled me up. My
kidneys acted too often and my feet
bloated badly. I heard about Doan's
Kf'ldney Pills and two boxes drove
the pain out of my back and regu
lated my kidneys.”
