ANNOUNCEMENTS
BREED THEATRE.
Wallace Reid and Cleo Ridaiey in The
Selfish Woman. Five Part Lasky-
Paramount Production, Feature for
Today and Saturday.

Wallace Reid mad Cleo Ridgley, the
brilliant young LRsky stars, will be
seen at the Breed theatre today and
Saturday in The Selfish Woman. an
intense melodrama of domestic strife.
Tho co-starring of Mr.. Reid and
Miss Ridgley on the Paramount pro-
gram has proved to be one Of the
most happy of tire many successful
combinations of the l-aSky company.
The Golden Chance, the very firSt Pic
ture in which they appeared together,
scored one of the greatest successes
the photodramatic world has ever
seen, and the two artists came in for
unstinted praise; Miss Ridgley, not
only on account of her wonderful
dramatic ability. but for her youth and
beauty as well. and Mr.. Reid was hail
ed as one of the finest examples OF
American manhood. Later the success
they scored in The Golden Chance was
repeated in the Lasky production of
The Love Mask, Jeanne MACPHERSON
thrilling story Of the early days OF
California.
In The Selfish Woman Hector Turn
bull has provided them with a story
which gives them both even greater
opportunities to show their wonderful
ability. The story has to do with the
adventures of a young civil engineer,
The con of q wealthy and INSCRIPTIONS
banker, ands the beautiful daughter of
u UuDIlCy-IIkftu 6OCAcly WO11lCA. LAOW
the girl, while marrying the engineer
for his money, only to have him dis
owned by the father to wreck his sons
career, and how they eventually renew
their old love, is presented in a series
of unusual scenes and gripping situa-
tons, and must necessarily be seen to
be appreciated
Many of the scenes were taken in a
railroad construction camp in the
heart of the mount ains, but the scenes
in the eastern drawing rooms give
Miss Ridgley and the other feminine
members of the company opportunity
to display some of the latest fashions
in evening gowns
The two stars are supported by a
Lasky all-star cast, including such
distinguished artists as Edythe Chap
man, Mrs. James O'Neill, Horace r.
Carpenter, Jane Wolff, William Elmer
and Joseph King.
The Breed will also present the
Pathe weekly, and a very funny Lone
some Luke comedy completes the bill
for today and Saturday.

WOMEN SUFFERERS
 NEED SWAMP ROOT

Thousands upon thousands of women have kidney and bladder trouble and never suspect it.
 Women's complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease.
 If the kidneys are not in healthy con. dition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased.
 You may suffer great deal with pain in the back, headache, loss of ambition, nervousness and may be Respondent and irritable.
 Don't delay starting treatment Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a physicians pre- scription, obtained at any drug store, re- stores health to the kidneys and is just the remedy needed to overcome such con ditions.
 Get fifty cent or one dollar bottle im- mediately from any drug store.
 However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr.. Kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, N. Y., for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper.-Adv.
