‘^HAIL THE WOMAN”
ILAST TIME AT PALACE
Thd inspired story of nioderi
Amorican womanhood is tc-id in i
deeply emotional and dramatic voir
In “Hail tho Woman,” Thomas H
Inca’s enthralling transcript of life
m'ow 'being featured at the Palace an'
on for tho last time tonight.
Tho picture demonstrates clearly
that romance, as rich and thrilling
as sung by itho minstrels of old, i.
found abundantly in everyday hip
ipenings of American life. The play
Is a mental stimulant, a succession ol
powerful situations, interpreted by i
ibrilliant cast of highly talented anc
universally popular screen players.
• Tho role of Judith Bcronford, do
voted "Woman” of the play, Is in
terpretod by Florence Vidor, whr
has fully grasped tho dramatic spirit
of tho atorv, and give3 to Its ex
pression the best that is in her.
Madgo Bellamy, aa tho tragic, piti
ful figuro of Nan, tho symbolization
of betrayed and deserted womanhood,
achieves heights of expressive por
trayal.
Lloyd Hughes ably acquits himself j
of a difficult ta3k in portraying the i
1 weak character of David Bercsforrl,
who has secretly married Nan, but
lacks courago to face his father and
disclose the fact of his marriago, As
a result Nan’s life Is ruined.
A splendidly virile characterization
is that which Theodore Bobcrts gives
’ to the role of Oliver Bcresford, the
1 stern old Puritan who rulo3 his fam
ily with a hand of iron.
Tully Marshall makes a powerful
tmpres3lon on the audionco in Ills
vivid interpretation of tho part of
tho vicious and covetous ‘‘odd-jobs!
man." who 13 bribed by Oliver Bores
' ford to drive his step-daughter, Nan,;
: away.
WALLACE REID AT
COLISEUM LAST TIME
At last tho flivver hr.s -neon im-j
racrtalfzod!
The familiar ‘‘tin lizzie" has suc
cessfully chargod it3 attackers’ "Shafts |
|uf ridicule and thrown up a strong |
I defense of honor and glory!
! Such la the achievement in the new
1 Paramount picture. “Across the Con
jtlnenit," starring Wallace Reid, which
'opened at the Coliseum Theater last,
I night, it 13 beyond doubt the best j
autombbile racing story in which this
■popular star has been seen- It in
volves a cross-continent race, where
in Mr. Reid, playing the son of
Theodore Roberts, the manufacturer
of the poorman's car, drives the little
motor, known as the "Dent,” through
wind, rain, fire and across moun
tains. rivers and deserts, on to vic
tory. defeating all contestants.
Mary McLaren, leading woman and
former Rtar, supplies the romance
and show- no little pluck by sitting
at the star’s side as mechanician as
ho tears over the roads at a terrific
pace. Others in the cast are Betty
Francisco, Walter Long, Lueien Lit
tlefield, Jack Herbert, Guy Oliver
and Sidney D’Albrook.
BRASFIELD PLEASES
IN CORNET SOLOS
H. J. BrasfleM, loader of the Pal
ace Theater Orchestra, made another
hit last night in two cornet solos.
The first solo was “Because," by
O’HardeJot, and was splendidly exe
cuted.
The second number was "Ben
Bolt," tho old familiar selection which
always gets over, and last night it
got over exceptionally fine on account
of being excellently done.
CIRCUS PICTURE AT >
COLISEUM TUESDAY
Unable to find a circus in London
available at the time for use in film
ing certain civcus scenes of "Love's
Boomerang,” tho Paramount picture
featuring Ann Forrest and David
Powell, which will bo shown at the
Coliseum Theater Tuesday and Wed
nesday, John ,S. Robertson, the pro
due or, transported hi3' entire shift
from London to France where lh
necessary scenes were filmed.
The pJcture folk much enjoyed
their two weeks’ association with the
circus people, following up the big
tent outfit as it moved from place
to place. Unforgettable for most of
them wero tho days at tho little old
world township of -Caudebee-en-Caux.
where the Inhabitants vied with each
other to give the first moving picture
■ani'pany they had ever had in their
midst, a hearty welcome and a ploas
mt time.
Mr. Robertson speaks in the high
?st terms Of th'* fine cooperation he
received In his work from the Broth- 1
;rs Plrnler, who manage the circus :
in which many of tho scones were
taken, Ann Forrest, who appears In '
the rifle of Perpotua, is equally en
thusiastic about her first intimate
glimpses of circus life and circus
people, and talks by tho hour of
‘Belle” the 'big elephant, who was 1
a or chief “support" and who, aceord
ng to her accounts, .is the most In- I
telligont animal of-her species. David
Powell plays opposlto hor in tho fu
ture.

HAVE DARK HAIR
AND LOOK YOUNG
_ I
NOBODY CAN TELL WHEN YOU,
DARKEN GRAY, FADED HAIR .
WITH SAGE TEA 1
Grandmother hep «er hair beau
tifully darkened, glossy and attrac
tive with a brew of 8age Tea and
.ulphur. Whenever her hair took
on that dull, faded or streaked ap
pearance, this simple mixture was
applied with wonderful effect. By
asking at any drug store for;
‘Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com-;
pound,’’ you will get a large bottle
of this old-time recipe, improved;
by the addition of other ingredients,!
all ready to use, at very little cost.!
This simple mixture can be depend-J
ed upon to restore natural color
and beauty to the hair.
A well-k'nown downtown drug-;
gist says everybody uses Wyeth’s,
Sage and Sulphur Compound now
because It darkens so naturally and,
evenly JJiat nobody can tei) It has
been applied—it’s so easy to use,
too. You simply dampen a comb or
soft brush and draw it through your
hair,, taking one strand at a time.
By morning the gray hair disap
pears ;afier another application or
i two, it is restored to its natural
color and looks glossy, soft and
beautiful. < Advertisement.)
