Excellent Musical Comedy and Charles
Cherry in The Mummy and the
Hunn1ing Bird.

faded motion picture appetites will
find the spice that reawallens the en-
joyment of savory morsels IN Ihe
Mummy and the Humming-Bird, the
film adaptation of the play by isaac
Henderson, in which the Famous RAY
ers present the celebrated F'rohman
star, Charles Cherry, who makes his
screen debut at the Auditorium in this
latest Paramount picture.
The art of Charles Cherry is the art
Of the seasoned actor who has subJu-
gated his unique natural artistic tai
ents to the peculiar eXigencies Of the
screen without in any way impair1ng
their effectiveness. It is the work of
the true artist whose Unborn dramatic
sense, If art may be so termed, has I'M
erringly guided him through the tech
meal names which have trlpped many
stage favorite who has attempted to
adapt his or her art to the screen.
Mr.. Cherry's delightful impersonation
of the absent minded peer who ne
elects his wife to conduct scientific
experiments is one Whoch he may We'll
be proud to add to the personal tri-
umphs gained while appearing on the
stage in support of some of the fore
most actresses.
The Mummy and the ETumming-Bird
recounts the tragedy of neglected
wife who seeks amusement in the
company of an Inscriptions Italian
novelist whose only OBJECT IN MAKING
love to her is the hope Of eventually
accomplishing her downfall. The re-
awakening of the unsuspecting hus-
band, the revenge which a former vic
tim of the willy schemer wreaks, and
the saving of the innocent woman are
fought with thrills and dramatic sus-
pense in abundance.
It is the sort of production which
cannot but impress those who view il
with the Importance of the alliance
between Charles F'rohman, the grea1
theatrical producer, and the amoFus
Players, the pioneer concern in the
adaptation of celebrated plays to The
screen, an alliance which made posi-

Astonishing PotOer of iron
to Give Strength to Broken
DoaUn Nervous People

you can walk without becoming tired.
Next take two ffve-grain tablets of or
binary nuxated iron three times per
day after meals for two weeks. Then
test your strength again and see for
yourself how much you have gained. l
have seen dozens of nervous, rundown
people who were ailing all the time
double and even triple their strength
and endurance and entirely get rid Of
their symptoms of dyspepsia. liver and
other troubles in from ten to fourteen
days time simply by taking iron in the
proper form, and this, after they had
in some cases been dOctOring for
months without obtaining any benefit.
You can talk as you please about all
the wonders wrought by new remedies,
but when you come down to hard facts
there is nothing like good old iron to
put color In your cheeks and good,
sound, healthy flesh on your bones. 1t
is also a great nerve and stomach
strengthened and the best blood builder
in the world. The only trouble was
that the old forms of inorganic iron,
like tincture of iron, iron acetate, etc.,
often ruined peoples teeth, upset their
stomachs and were not assimilated,
and for these reasons they frequently
did more harm than good. But with
the discovery Of the newer forms of
organic iron all this has been overcome.
Nuxated Iron, for example, is pleasant
to take, does not injure the teeth and Is
almost Immediately beneficial.
NOTE-The manufacturers of Nuxated
Iron have such unbounded confidence in
it's potency that they authorize the an
nouncement that they will forfeit $4,000
to any Charitable Institution II they can
not take any man or woman under sixty
who lacks iron and increase their strength
200 per cent or over In four weeks time,
provided they have no serious organic
trouble. Also they will refund your money
in any case in which Nuxated Iron does
not at least double your strength In ten
days time. It is dispensed by most drug
gists. If your druggist or general store
is without a supply, ask them to get 1t Tor
