PALACE THEATER

At the Palace tomorrow Grace Gu
nard and Francis Ford are being Hea-
tured in a Gold Seal two-reel detective
drama, The Mystery of the White
Car"
Here is the third drama in "My
Lady Raffles' series. If your enthusi-
asm for the preceding one, "The
Twins Double" was a fraction OF
what ours was, it was big. But wait
until you have finished sitting through
this play. It's above those gone be-
fore, both in the unique business in
troduced and the thrill it gives; and
that is saying much. 1t is human
and probable in plot, and yet it keeps
you guessing until the last moment.
Kelly, the detective, enacted by the
inimitable Francis Ford, has followed
the clever female crook across the
Mexican border, and here it is that
the new and unexpected complications
arise. Provisional President Pedro de
Leo. calls upon Kelly to assist him in
running down the owner of a myster-
ious white car which has been seen
crossing the border line with ammuni-
ton. The president also reports that
an attempt has been made on his life
Kelly soon discovers peculiar fact
in connection with the mysterious car.
1t runs along the highway at terrific
speed without visible uTlVer, IN ldcl
no one can be seen in the car. And
this is how the mystery begins. The
battling of the detective and his aides
lis amusing and laugh provoking at
times. and serious at other times; it Is
gripping always.
Grace Cunard is the author of the
play. It's settings are picturesque
characterizing the country in which
the action is laid.
The regular program as follows will
also be shown: Augustus Carney and
Louis Glaum in Universal Ike Makes
a Monkey of Himself" which is her.

In cell in a Brooklyn police sta

shooting and gave evidences of being
stark mad. While talking he dug his
finger nails into the palms of his hands
until they bled. He said he shot his
father when he received a spiritual
message from George Washingto
In saner, calmer tone, he added: 81

Before his arraignment in court
Duryea became violent and beat on
the doors of his cell with his bare
knuckles. A policeman was stationed
outside the door to prevent him from
injuring himself seriously.

ADV. SIGNS MUST
LEAVE THE Pixies
Highway Commissioner Bigelow
DEGREES That They Must Come
Down at Once

Automobiles, persons riding and
| driving and pedestrians on the high
ways and byways Of this Common
wealth hereafter will be able to enjoy
the natural beauties of sylvan scenes
without being reminded that certain
famous pills will cure their ills or
that everybody smokes and chews the
only tobacco" State Highway Conn
missioner Bigelow has sent out notices
to the supervisors and township COM
missioners and to the district engi-
neers of the State Highway Depart
ment instructing them to enforce the
provisions of legislative act approved
March 10, 1908. by Governor Penny
packer.
This act provides a penalty of not
less than S. nor more than $40 for
placing upon any property belonging
to the State of Pennsylvania or to any
county, township, borough or city
therin any written printed painted or
other advertisement, bill. notice, sign
or poster.
Commissioner Bigelow calls atten-
ton to the fact that all highways of
the State of PENNSYLVANIA belong to
the Commonwealth and are included
specifically in the prohibitions of the
act.
Not only will the unsightly appear
ance of the roads be remedied, but also
the lives of trees will be heightened
since the indiscriminate mailing OF
signs thereon tends to shorten their
lives. All persons, whether State,
county or borough officials or private
citizens, are urged to aid the State in
Kidding the public highways of free
advertisements of the business inter-
ests of private individuals.
The National Highways Protective
Society, New York, of which Frederic
r. Coudert is president and Bradley
Martin vice-president, has been inter-
ested in this work of removing OBJ
noxious defacements from the public
highways throughout the eastern part
of the United States. The States of
New York. Connecticut and Massa-
chuetts have had laws similar to Penn.
sylvania in effect for several years ana
this society has rendered valuable aid
in enforcing the provisions of the acts
in these States. They have sent out a
circular calling attention to the Penn
sylvania statute on which Commits
sioner Bigelow based his notice.
Accompanying Commissioner Bige-
lows notice is a copy of another act,
approved by the late Governor Hoyt in
1881, which provides a penalty of inn
prisonment for thirty days and fine
for an offender or offenders who shall,
without the consent of the owners,
place advertisements or post placards
on buildings, fences, trees or any other
articles on private property.
A rigid enforcement of these two
acts, according to the statement issued
by the State Highway Department,
will result in the elimination of, un-
slightly signs along the public highways
and will have the logical effect of
diverting advertising into channels
where it belongs legitimately and
where newspapers and magazine pub
fishers will reap the benefits there
from.

Il is Just Natural
To Admire Babies

Our altrustic nature impels love for the
cooling infant. And at the same time
the subject Of motherhood Is ever before
us. To know what to do that will add
to the physical comfort of expectant
motherhood is subject that has inter-
ested most women of all times. One of
the real helpful things is an external
abdominal application sold in most drug
stores under the name Of Mothers
Friend" We have known SO many grand
mothers. who in their younger days
relied upon this remedy, and who recon-
mend it to their own daughters that it
certainly must be what it's name indi-
Gates. They have used 1t for its direct
influence upon the muscles, cords. liga-
ments and tendons as 1t aims to afford
relief from the strain and pain so often
unnecessarily severe during the period Of
expectancy.
Every woman should mention Mothers
Friend" when the stork is the subject of
conversation. An interesting little book
is mailed free upon application to Brad

that women like to read about.

COMb|NG WON'T RID
HAIR OF DANDRUFF
The Easiest and Best Way Is
to Dissolve 1t

The only sure way to get rid of
dandruff is to dissolve it, then you
destroy it entirely. To do this, get
about four ounces of ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when retir-
ing; use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger
tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning
most IL not all of your dandruff will
be gone. and three or four more appli-
cations will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace of 1t, no matter how much dam
druff you may have.
You will find, too. that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel hundred times better.
If you want to preserve your hair,
do by all means get rid of dandruff,
for nothing destroys the hair more
quickly. 1t not only starves the hair
and makes 1t fall out. but 1t makes 1t
stringy. straggly, dull, dry, brittle and
lifeless. and everyone notices it. You
can get liquid arvon at any drug store
1t Is inexpensive and never fails to do
the work.--Advertisement.

toned. on constitutional grounds, in
several Jurisdictions in the State. In
order to meet conditions that might
arise If the act should be declared void
pv the appellate courts, the requisite
petitions were prepared and signed to
make him the candidate of the Re-
publican party. Petitions were pre-
pared and signed that would have
made him the candidate Of the Demo-
cratic party. Petitions were prepared
and signed that would have made him
the candidate of the Washington party.
II the ifonpartisan judiciary act had
been declared void, Judge Kunkel
would have been the candidate of all
political parties in his home county.
1t is always difficult, sometimes i'm
possible. for a man in public life to
justify the hopes of his friends. GEN
orally 1t is impossible for him to dis
appoint the expectations and predic-
tions of those who oppose him. In
ten years on the bench Judge Kunkel
did both. Every pledge of those who
had supported him had been fulfilled.
Every ground of opposition had been
proved untenable. Taunts had been
turned to tribute, abuse to praise. The
Republican candidate so bitterly op-
posed in 1908. had been the peoples
judge for ten years and became the
peoples candidate in 1918. AS he has
been the peoples judge in Dauphin
county, so will he be the peoples
justice, if elected a member of the
highest court in the State.
There are before the people of
Pennsylvania the names of a number
of men of high character and eminent
ability, as candidates for the highest
judicial office in the Commonwealth
Among these names. without derroga-
ton as to them or f1attery as to him,
we place the name of Honorable
George kunkel, as the peer of any Of
them.
