tlve, several peculiar gifts are made
to an almost uncivilized African
King In "The Race For Life,” the
second picture of the series. of four
comprising the massive Paramount j
photoplay creation, “The Mistress of'
the World," which is due for presen !
tation at the Coliseum tonight only.!
Mia May, a celebrated European ac-:
tress Is the featured player.
Makombe, dreaded ruler of a vast I
tract of darkest Africa opposes the,
passage of a venturesome band of!
white explorers seeking the long
Jost city of Ophir. But they, fore
seeing Just such an emergency are
prepared, for they have brought with
them gifts to gladden the heart of
the most barbarous savage. And so
it came to pass that Makombe, al-:
though stubbornly refusing to grant ■
passage to the travelws, has his i
heart gladdened by gins of a top
hat, a gaudy umbrella, some gloves
and other articles of adornment.
The effect is miraculous.
PALACE TONIGHT
MARIE PREVOST
■*' "Nobody’s Foot," conies to the Pal
ace theatre tonight with the vivacious
Marie Prevost as the star. Support
ing Miss Prevost is Harry Myers,
the famous "Connecticut Yankee in
King Arthur’s Court,” and a star in
his own right.
The combination of comedy talent
promises to make "Nobody's Fool”
one of the hits of the season.
Shunned by the smart set of fash
ionable Barton College, poor Polly
Gordon almost moped her little life
away. She danced like a Barracuda
out of its element, but even her
beauty was hidden under the forbid
, ding blemish of a large pair of tor
toise shell glasses. Then came the
deluge. Money rained into her life.
A nice old aunt had died, leaving
poor Polly heir to a million dollar
estate. And then you should have
seen the boys run. They sped like
the fire chief going home to lunch.

When that young man with the
