FUTRELLE' 8 Bic
STORY TOLD IN
SILENT DRAMA

THE Diamond Master one OF the
best works Of Jacques Futrelle, hero
and victim of the Titanic, the big
hearted Georgia boy who had made a
place in history on account of his
great genius as story writer, has
been produced by the Universal Film
Company, and will be seen in Atlanta
Tuesday at the Savoy.
There are few persons In Atlanta,
or Georgia, as to that, who have not
read the works of Jacques Futrelle,
and there are few in this city who
did not know him personally. That
the Universal Film Company, one Of
the most successful producers in
America, should value the story 50
highly as to reproduce 1t on the screen
is a matter of qualification to the
many friends of the hero novelist.

When Newport Citizens Show 4
 Way.

There can be no reason why any reader of this who suffers the tortures of an aching back, the annoyance of urinary disor- ders, the pains and dangers of kidney ills will fail to heed the words of a neighbor who has found relief. Read what a New port citizen says:
 Mrs. c. W. Gochenour, 616 Main street, Newport, says: "Two of my family had symp- toms of kidney trouble, such as backache and dizzy spells. The kidney secretions were painful in passage and filled with sedi- ment. A cold always made the trouble worse. Deans Kidney Pills strengthened the back and regulated the action of the kid neys."
