Bessie Barriscale in Not My Sister
proved a sterling attraction yesterday at
Moore's Strand Theater. How a woman.
in protecting her sister from a frightful
fate. incurs the jealousy of her husband.
and finally has to bare a dark chapter In
her own life is realistically told in Not
My Sister" Woman's frailty, mans per-
idy and the conventions of society are
pictured in this production by the master
hand of Thomas Ince, and the final cli-
max comes as complete surprise. Miss
Barriscale. as the artists model, who is
confronted by a heart-breaking problem
which weirdly solves itsSlf, does the finest
work Of camera career, an her support
ing company included William Desmond
Louise Brownell. Franklin Ritchie and
Alice Tane. The secondary attraction
brought many laughs, and consisted OF
Al st. John and other Keystone features

Stomach Troubles
Due to ACidity
SAYS NEW YORK PHYSICIAN

A well-known New York physician
in speaking of dyspepsia and its
proper treatment says that so-cailed
stomach troubles, such as indigestion,
wind, stomach ache and inability to
retain food, are in probably nine cases
out of ten simply evidence that fer
mentation is taking place in the food
contents of the stomach, causing the
formation of gas and acids. Wind
distends the stomach. and causes that
full. oppressive feeling sometimes
irritates and inflames the delicate
lies largely in the fermenting food
causing the formation of excess acid
such fermentation is unnatural, and
may involve most serious conse-
quences if not corrected.
To stop or prevent fermentation of
the food contents of the stomach and
to neutralize the dangerous acid and
make it harmless, a teaspoonful of
bisurated magnesia, probably the best
and most effective corrector of acid
stomach known should be taken in a
quarter of a glass of hot or cold wa
ter Immediately after eating, or
This stops the fermentation, sweetens
the stomach contents and neutralizes
the acidity in a few moments. Fer
mentation, wind and acidity are dan
gcrous and unnecessary. Stop or pre-
vent them by the use of a proper ant
acid, such as bisurated magnesia,
which can be obtained from any
druggist, and thus enable the stomach
to do its work properly without be-
ing hindered by poisonous gas and
dangerous acids.-Adv.

Gnrden-Feature Films,

Moore's Garden Theater was crowded
yesterday with theatergoers anxious to
see Charlie Chaplin in his newest laugh
fest, The Vagabond." This picture car
ries more of a story than any OF his
previous productions, and II seemed to be
the general opinion that 1t is the best
thing the comedian has done meath the
Mutual banner. While "The Vagabond"
is crowded with merriinent, 1t neverthe-
less has its touches OF pathos in which
scenes Chaplin gives a striking portrayal
Of his weli-known dramatic qualities. In
the picture he is seen as an itinerant
musician, who after a series of comic and
near-tragic adventures in the big city,
where he finds the competition OF the
German street bands and the huroy-
gurdys too much for him, decides to try
country life. Here he encounters a band
of rowing Gypsies and rescues a wealthy
young girl whom the nonads have kid
mapped. OF course in the end he marries
the captive heiress. and has no further
use for his over-worked violin. The pro-
gram surrounding the Chaplin comedy
includes Vivian Rich and Alfred Vos-
burgh in a multiple reel drama, THE
Quicksands Of Deceit" cartoon comedies
by Hartman. Opper and McManus, the
latest New York and Partisan fashions.
Reel Life" a perturbation Of a periodi-
cal and timely views OF the American
troops in Mexico. These pictures win

the girl Of the slums is suspected of be-

benefactor and his grandson, who Is in
love with her, but she is finally cleared
and the phptoplay comes to a happy end

dence would not constitute a legal claim
and holds her peace despite her hus-
bands obvious suffering through her dis
honesty.
Following the departure Of The Loser
the young wife finds that her gain of
four hundred dollars hardly offsets her
loss Of her husbands faith, although she
persists in her moral detection until the
man makes restitution for her, and also
proves that If she were placed in the
Losers shoes her angle of the matter
would be quite reversed
In the role of the young husband George
Kelly gives fine dramatic performance,
touching here and there the heights of
poetic fancy; Anna Cleveland is excel
lent as the wife, and Annette Tyler is
adequate to the smaller demands of the
role Of The Loser.
The sketch is unusual both in its con-
cepuon and in its portrayal. furnishing an
interesting commentary on the psychol-
ogy of dishonest mind.
IN equally elevated vein are the
twenty minutes which the bill devotes
this week to Ethel Hopkins in a reper-
TORE dominated by grand opera. Miss
Hopkins brings to her vocalization a well
produced voice entirely adequate to the
exacuons of her classical selections.
Other inclusions are Rudinoff, the ar
list entertainer. who gives a clever dem
onstration of one OF the smoke etchings''
OF which he is the originator and charms
ms auditors with series of bird irnita>
IONS terminating with the most realistic
courtship of two nightingales; Billy Hal
ngan and Dana Sykes, in a bit of anus
ing repartee and song; the Dare brothers
IN an athletic feature remarkable for its
accuracy and ease; Berzac's Circus with
Its well-trained ponies and obstreperous
mule, and the Pathe films picturtng the
news Of the past week.
This interesting bill will be embellished
the remainder OF the week with Joseph
howard song revue, in which he will
be assisted by Ethlyn Clark.
