KEEP YOUR BRUSHES
CLEAN and USE
SPFSER'S SCALP TONIC

A noted scalp specialist
speaking of the prevalence
of dandruff and similar man
ifestations of an unhealthy
scalp, recommends first of
all that hair brushes, combs,
ETC., be kept perfectly clean.
The daily use Of Speiser's
Scalp Tonic is strongly
urged as it prevents the dry
ing of the scalp, the primary
cause of dandruff, itching, /.
etc. ... -. :, VI = y ;:i3.sss zas
The use of soaps or any
other preparation which con-
tains alkalis, must be strict
ly avoided. Alkalis have ya
tendency to dry the scalp
which only makes matters
worse. Cocoanut oil and all
foaming solutions ,shouid
not be used. Speiser's Scaip
Tonic corrects abnormal
conditions, kills dapdruH
and relieves itchy, irritated
skins: This wonderful prep
aration sells for SOC and is
personally guaranteed by tho

what observations David warfield yIs
made on this subject are interesting,
largely in view of the fact that he has
made thousands, of audiences cry out
right, and be perfectly happy thereby.
He holds that men are more human
than women. and more deeply moved
IN the theater.
"As for tears" he says. 1T has been
my experience that in the theater men
are much more human than women.
The bigger and stronger a man. the
more he Is likely to weep. He is ar
fscted as much. also. by the delica.e
moments as by the sweeping emOuons
in larger scenes. woman's right to cry
at the theater has been handed down
from time immemorial as q sort OF
heirloom. but just because men 40 not
20 moping around the house when they
can't afford new hats. you can't argue
that they are heartless. Even when
they don't burst out with demonstra-
tions of their emotions, the actor can
feel when he has stirred them truly.
People are perhaps reader to laugh
than to cry, but for all that, the plays
with a little pathos are the ones that
last. The farces are gone with pun,
because one can rarely laugh twice ex
cept through politeness-at the self
same joke. Audiences do not feel any
compulsion for such politeness at the
theatef. The smile and the tear to-
gother are splendid things to achieve,
md perhaps tax the actor as heavily
as anything he ever tries to do
