REMARKABLE CURE
FOR RHEUMATISM.

1t is commonly acknowledged by
all physicians that Rheumatism is
caused by the presence OF Uric Aclo
IN the blood. And heretofore, prac-
ticaIly the only remedy for this con
dition was an expensive trip to the
famous medicinal spring of Bohemia
and Carlsbad. which many sufferers
markabIe discovery has been made
that makes 1t possible to concentrate
all of the wonderful medical benefits
of these springs into powder. rms
powder is called LAX-URIC and can
be had at Wells & Haymaker Co.,
Angle Inn Pharmacy, Stone & Mercer,
or Farrell Drug Store. 1t acts as
mild, effective laxative and complete
" neutralizes the Uric Acid In the
system thus giving almost instant re-
lief from rheumatism. 1t is also ex-
cellent as a cure for all complaints
arising from disordered stomach KID
neds and liver.

TEMPO VERY
IMPORTANT
In Production Ct Moving Pic
lures and One Director Re-
hearses with Music.

The tempo at which a motion pic
ture Is projected is one of the most
important factors IN thu success OF
Aim drama when SHOWN on the
screen. That is a recognized facl
but II was brought out with unusual
strength recently by David W..
Griffith, .'the Belasco of motion PFC
lures" and the mead produce OF
Reliance and Majectfc Mutua
Movies.
An Expert.
Mr.. Griffith is probably the world s
greatest expert on getting results on
the screen. His fame is due to his
ability as a producer, but he also
keeps q watchful eye on the other
elements that make for success or
failure. In a recent letter from the
Western Relianre and Majectir pro-
iucing studios at $500 sunset
Boulevard, Los Angels, Calf, he ad-
yises the rehearsal of one OF his big
feature pictures two or three times
with music until the correct tempo
is obtained.
Costly work.
I'm many instances, says Mr.
Griffith, thousands of dollars have
been spent for theaters. for the pro-.
duction of moving PICTURES and for
the exhibition OF moving pictures
that has been absolutely wasted. The
location OF the theater has been
blamed when the real fault lay in
the projection of the pictures, dim
lights, the pictures being out OF 10
