Carlton Comedy
Amusea

'~rhe Scapegoat,e a two-reel film
drama full of exciting situations, is
the featured number of the Carlton
bill, and was we'll received, but a
screaming keystone comedy entitled
"Tommy's Tintype Tanke'' shared
the spotlight OF popularity, judging
from the mirth 1t caused. The Key
stone film Is one of those farcical
contraptions which made Charley
Chaplin famous before he severed his
connections with that company. 1t is
Just one continuous series OF side
splitting mishaps, with a ''jitney tin
type" photographer causing all Of the
trouble when he snaps the husband"
sitting on a park bench with someone
else's wife. The picture falls into the
hands of the mother-in-law, and the
trials and tribulations of Tommy are
enough to keep the house in an up
roar. The remainder OF the program
was up to the standard.

THE CAST

NdIIef6 E9dAOll fAllllE
The Vaunted boast of the billposters
that advertise 1.-The Show Shop" "a
laugh to fit every face" was abun-
dainty justified last night when that
delightful comedy by the author of
THE Chorus Lady, opened a weeks
engagement at the Newark Theater.
A cast unusually we'll balanced,
combined with plot that abounded
with situations of refreshing original
ity, united to produce an evening Of
the sort of entertainment that i'm
poses no strain upon the imagination,
and exacts nc heavy toll from the
audiences powers of concentration.
The play belongs TO that variety of
light comedy which depends almost
entirely for it's success upon the sym
pathy of its characters with their re-
spective roles, and IN the cast of
James Forbes's play every member
acquitted himself with signal honor.
Zelda Sears, as the militant Mama
Dean, divided the first honors of the
production with George Sidney, whose
Interpretation of the role of Max Ro-
senbaum, the theatrical manager, was
one of the most natural and felicitous
approximations that popular comedian
has appeared in for many years.
A close second to the principals
was Walter Young, who, in the role
of Tompkins, the stage manager, al
ternately glowered and groaned, as
the progress of the rehearsals for the
play, fore-doomed, as he savagely de-
clared, for failure jerked onward.
In the rehearsals and final first
night performance of the play within
the play, about which the plot re-
wolves n situation of delicious origin
ality and humor was developed, at
fording the audience an intimate
glimpse of that life behind the scenes
which is the backbone of every pro-
duction, whether n success or fail
ure. Again and again the perform
anee was almost halted by shrieks
of laughter and applause. While no
less of a surprise than the odd twists
of plot and dialogue, which give the
play it's abiding charm, was the sud
den metamorphosis of Bettina, the
alleged star of the play within the
play, from a self-conscious, falterinE
ingenue, reluctantly accepting the
prominence thrust upon her by her
ambitious mother, into a really excel
lent emotional actress.
So completely does Mildred Bright
efface herself. in the attempt to real
ize the colorless, negligible part that
her role demands. that the audience
has really begun to accept the inter-
pretatlon as literal And the aston
ishment with which it discovers at the
first night" performance that little
Bettina has II in her." after all, Is
one of the finest tributes that could
be paid tor an artist.
As a vehicle for the complete re-
juvenation of the tired business
man." 1.-THE Show Shop" can scarce
ly be too highly recommended.

DAINTIEST COSTUME
 OF THE SEASON
Will Lose It's Effect Unless the Hair is Pretty and Properly Dressed.

The woman who looks to clothes for her charm and attractiveness is likely to find her most expensive outfit a fail ure if she has thin, faded or lifeless hair. The most beautiful evening gown will appear dowdy and out of style unless crowned with head of pretty hair, soft, fluffy and lustrous.
 Beautiful hair does not just happen to be so, but is always a matter of care and proper nourishment of the hair roots. No matter how unsightly the hair, how badly it is falling, or how much dandruff, Parisian Sage, an inexpensive tonic. well rubbed into the scalp, is all that Is ever needed. The hair roots are nourished and stimulat- ed to grow new hair. Even dandruff is entirely removed with one applica- tion, and itching scalp and falling hair cease; the hair will be bright, vigorous, soft and fluffy.
 If the hair is oily, dry, brittle or you have dandruff, Parisian Sage i'm mediately removes the cause, and by toning up the scalp quickly restores the hair to it's original brilliancy and vigor.
 Parisian Sage can be had from The Lee & Osgood Co.,, or any drug or toilet counter. It is a delightful and harmless treatment that never fails to act as real and lasting benefit to the hair and scalp.

AT THE AUDITORIUM.

The Theatrical Agency. the musical comedy farce presented by the Bedore Musical Stock company yesterday af- ternoon and evening. drew big audi ences at all performances and was fully as entertaining a bill as that of the first two days. The two comedi- ans. although doing entirely different characters, keep the audience laughing all the time, and are well assisted by the other principals, while the song numbers are better than those of the last show, and the costumes make a more pleasing display.
 The same bill will be repeated again today at all performances, and if any one is looking for a good hearty laugh they can have their wish fulfilled by dropping into the Auditorium this af- ternoon or evening for an hour or so.
 Pauline Bush will be seen in a very interesting comedy drama today enti- tied A Night of Thrills, and Eddie Lyons is featured in a very funny reel entitled When Lizzie Got Her Polish.
 4 complete change of bill will take place tomorrow, when the Bedore company will present a new play and all new pictures will be installed.
