Avoid the Deformity.

Do you know why it is that most
noses point east? Take notice in this
regard of the people you meet, and
you will see that their noses nearly
always are turned quite markedly to
the right. instead OF being set straight
on their faces. 1t is a reformation at
tributable to the fact that since early
childhood they have used their hand
kerchiefs with their right hands, CIV

physician will test the urine and re-
port whether you are a good risk.
When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog, you suffer from backache, sick
headache, dizzy spells, or the twinges
and pains of lumbago, rheumatism and
govt. The urine is often cloudy, full
OF sediment; channels often get sore
and sleep is disturbed two or three

The holiday bill at Poli's is one that is sure to attract most favorable attention froLl theatre-goers, com bining as it does some excellent fea- lures in the vaudeville and film pro gram. At the head of the vaudeville bill is the playlet by Porter Emerson Brown, t.In' and Out" presented by Walter c. Howe and company. MT. Howe is a most talented actor, and in this delightful comedy has the support of a most adequate com pany.
 Gods Country and the Woman is the title of the eight-part film fea- ture that tops the photoplay program. This gripping dramatic spectacle pie turizes a. stirring tale of the North west and stars Nell Shipman, George Holt and other favorites-4
 Kelly and Calvin, the@popular character comedians will be an ex- tra added feature with their always pleasing shit, and Jim and Marion Hawkins, in a happy bit of variety, will have an important place in the bill.

PLAZA

sHThe Market of Vain Desire'' is the starring vehicle of H. B. Warner, the noted English actor and Clara Will jams at the Plaza the first half of the week and in 1t this gifted pair are afforded some of the most remarkable opportunities of their respective ca reers for forcefu1 dramatic acting. The story is a strong one based upon the all too-common custom of Ameri- can young women marrying for a title; marrying when love has access to the Sheart of neither aspirant; marrying to gratify a selfish am bition and pride. The fact that they are driven on by narrow-m minded mothers does not make the deed any the less wicked and in this stirring play Thomas H. Ince strives to prove his idea in a manner that holds the in terest of the spectator until the final, smashing climax is reached
 The Land of the Pyramids,' a merry whirl of music and mirth with Bobby Vail and Marie Mann in the leading roles and a beauty chorus of 10, heads the vaudeville program. The act is said to be one of the most delightfully."- constructed and most elaborate staged musical comediettas in the world of variety and should prove a big drawing card.
 Fox and Wells with their rather odd skit that has won them the ad- rr1iration of their audiences wherever they have appeared; Smith and Farmer in a dainty singing and danc- ing fantasy that has plenty of mirth infected at the right intervals, and The Alvfra.
