Titles Punctured Romance" will
be seen at the Murray today for the
last time, and those who have not
seen this comedy are advised to do
50, for seldom has such a wonderful
aggregation of stars been shown on
the screen a tone time. Imagine

and Mable Normand and you already
have a smile on your face in anticipa-
ton Of what you will see. Beyond a
doubt this is the funniest reel ever
shown in Richmond and it has made
a big hit all over the country.

BEST THEATRE.

Today, Clyde Fitch's powerful dra- ma, "The Straight Road" is presented as a Paramount feature by the Fam ous Players, featuring Gladys Han- son and most capable cast of play CTS. This splendid four-reel drama deals with the life of girl of the slnms, who, being raised in evil en- vironments remains clean except for her love of whiskey and of a fight. She is loved by an athletic young salconkeeper. How one of her figh.s brings her to the notice of the society girl. who befriends her and induces her to give up drink, how her lover helps her to quit drinking (though against business principles), how a villainous young society man is the cause of all her friends doubting her and her near escape from return to her sordid life and her final triumph, is all told in this excellent feature.
 Tomorrow. "The Perils of Pauline" now in its seventeenth episode, is still as excitingly interesting as ever and there seems to be no end to the dew iltry that the arch-villain Owen can concoct. In this episode, Pauline is enticed f.om home to the den of counterfeiters, where she is roughly dealt with. but is saved through the intelligence of her pet dog.

Brooks Jones Hacks Him self with Knife About
 Neck and Breast.
NOW WANTS TO LIVE
Failing in Attempt to End Life, Saw. Mill Worker Determines He'll Live and "Be a Man'-Thanks Wife for
 New Point of View.

espOndency, due to an estaranse- ment with his wife of four months, caused Brooks Jones, sawmill worker 26 years of age, to hack him. self about the breast and neck in an effort to end his life. Jones is re- covering, and has determined he wants to live, even though he has not effected a reconciliation with his wife, whom he credits with making a man" of him after his parents and he had failed.
 The attempt at suicide occurred Saturday in the house formerly occu pied by the Joneses. The wounded man was carried to his boardinghouse at 2007 West Sixth avenue, where he is rapidly mending.
 The lady for love of whom Jones sought to die, and for whom he now seeks to live was formerly Mrs. Sal lie Lightly. The records of the coun- ty clerks office show they were mar ried on August 9, 1914, by Justice of the Peace l.. E. Cheek. All is said to have gone we'll with the newly-weds until Jones tccame idle. His wife charged him with misbehavior, de1iv-
 
 up her things and left the house, talk ing up her residence in another part of the city
 It was then that Jones realized the folly of his way and, stricken with remorse, he determined to end his life with a knife. He thought he was bleeding to death when he was found and given medical attention. Since then he has undergone change of heart, as statement made for The Graphic indicates. Jones' declaration, written by him while propped up .n bed reads:
 Open confession and violation of love at home:
 q wish to confess to the mistakes I have made in life. and how I have at home; and next. attempt of life. have reDcnted of this, and am gong to be 9 man the rest of my life. "My wife has done for me what my father and mother could not do--she has made a man out of me. It was because I loved her. I have no hopes of ever being with her again, but I will always thank her for making a man out of me; I will always want to gc back and make my home happy with my love, as I am willing to give her my love and support.
 "I have seen my mistake through life and repented of it, and will walk the right way, and on the bright side of life from now on until the end
 An open confession is good for the soul, and I want the forgiveness of everyone, so I can start out in life and be a man.
 "I will always thank my wife for this blessing, and will always be ready to give her my love and support. "BROOKS JONES'"

QUICK RELIEF
 FOR DYSPEPTICS

"The worst and most confirmed dyspeptics, those who for years hav- Geen unable to eat without discomfort or intsnse pain can quickly over- come the trouble and enjoy the pleas ure Of eating hearty meal of the good things they have been denied for years, if they will only use 8 litt1: common everyday morse sense," says an eminent specialist who recently -e- turned from six years stay in Europe. In explanation he said: The great majority of all cases of. stop,- ach trouble-dyspepsia, indigestion, gastritis, etc, are primarily due to excessive acid and food fermentation. Ponies, opiates, or artificial diges- tants which merely cover up the trouble or temporarily assist diges- tion are as useless and foolish aa it would be to mend pnnctured tire without removing the nail that caused the trouble. What must be done and it's the only logical thing to do is to neutralize the acid and stop the fermentation which has for years been irritating and distending the stomach. For this purpose ] have found nothing quite so good or con- venient as taking a teaspoonful or ordinary bisurated magnesia imme- diately after meals or whenever pain is felt. No matter how severe the case may be this should be tried for personally know of many cases where patients after suffering fo, over 20 years, attending hospitals and even undergoing such serious opera tions as that for appendicitis, have obtained quick and permanent relief by following this simple common sense advice. It may add that I un- derstand from inquiries l have made tlat most druggists in this :ountr, are now able to supply bisurated magnesia in grain tablets as well as the ordinary powder form. Two or three of these tablets are usually sufficient to give instant relief even in the most severe attacks of acute indigestion.
