Physicians are baff1ed by st. Vitus'
dance because it is nervous disease in
which they can find nothing actually
wrong with the nervous system.
Long before the child becomes awkward
and begins dropping things there is q
period in which the appetite is tickle and
the patient is tired and listless. Tho
jerking movements characteristic of the
disease come much later.
In the early stages good tonic for the
blood and nerves will 60 far toward pre-
Venting the development of the disease.
But the tonic must be free from alcohol
and opiates for these make the nervous
condition worse. When your child ap-
pears listless, prefers to sit and read
rather than go out and play and required
entirely too much time to get his or her
lessons, give course of treatment with
DR.. Williams Pink Pills. They cannot
do harm, the system is sure to be bene-
fitted and you may avoid serious trouble.

A. the Grand.


It Is rarely indeed that the motion
picture public has been privileged to
witness so exquisitely artistic a per-
Torrance as that OF Mary Pickford in
the Famous Players Film company's
screen adaptation OF John Luther
Longs immortal classic, Madame
famous love tale celebrated in opera,
novel and play, has preserved and en-
HANGED all the poetic beauty and tend
erness of the original. AS the forsak-
en- Cho Cho-San, the little maid OF the
Flowery Kingdom, patiently waiting
through the long months for the return
of her faithless American husband,
Mary Pickford presents an innocent,
conf1ding, pathetic figure, who pro.
'ceeds through her many sorrows with
courage and endurance.
Only an actress of Miss Pickford's re-
markable magnetism and dramatic
power could have presented pant
omimic impersonation of this famed
character that will stand comparison
with the artistry of the stage and
operate standards already established.
For pure pathos and dramatic appeal,
the photo production Of Madame But
terhy" has few equals In the whole
realm Of fiction, stage or screen.
In addition to this six reel feature
at the Grand tom orrow and Friday, the
Paramount Newspictures will be
