that old Grace church. which appeared in painted canvas as a backdrop in the original presentation of the play, serves as the actual background for the corresponding scenes in the film.
 It was in 1875 that Denman Thomp- son, while suffering from an attack of rheumatism during an engagement at Martins Variety theatre in Pitts burgh, conceived the idea of a rural Joshua Whitcomb The success of this sketch led him to expand it into a play which was presented for the first time at the Boston theatre in 1886 under its present title,. The Old Homestead.
 The marvellous popularity of this rustic drama, which has made an un- paralleled appeal to all classes and ages ever since it's first appearance, is easily explained by the fact that it paints real life in it's truest and best aspects, and that it tells the simplest of stories concerning the simplest of people. It is human nature without it's confusing and baf1ing veneer-the sort of characteriZations that every body comprehends because of it's Fery naivete.
 Frank Losee, one of the best known character actors on the American stage, will play the role of Josh Whit comb, made unforgettable by Denman Thompson in Americas oldest living drama" Creighton Hale, Denman Moley, Louise Huff and others well known to stage and screen appear in support of MT Losee.

AT THE AUDITORIUM
Old Homestead, Denman Thompson's Rural Masterpiece, Made Immortal by Famous Players.

The Old Homestead, the greatest
 rural drama ever written, in which the late Denman Thompson starred
 for over thirty years, has at last been adapted as feature play by the Fa-
 nous Players Film Company by spe- cial arrangement with Frank Thonp-
 son, son and heir of the author actor l This great American classic will be
 seen as Paramount picture here to-
 day and tomorrow.
 Through the active cooperation of
 the younger Thompson, the producers have been able to preserve to a re- marlkable degree the atmosphere and
 spirit of the original play. This was accomplished by means of photo graphs of the first Josh Whitcomb and of the costumes worn by the various
 members of the supporting cast. Of special importance in this connection
 was the obtaining of permission to
 use the old Thompson homestead in | New Hampshire, which was the set- the background of the film. Director James Kirkwood and his company
 went to the old New England village | where they spent several weeks in photographing scenes in and about the | Thompson farm and in the outlying | country where there still exists to a remarkable degree the same interest | ing and delightful types that were found by Thompson when he wrote the play three decades ago. Even the
 interior of the Thompson home was used for some of the scenes which transpire in the house.
 | Another interesting link between the stage and the screen lies in the fact

FOR ITCHING ECZEMA,
 OLD SORES AND PILES

q guarantee my ointment.' says Peterson, ito cure eczema to stop the itching at once and any reliable drug gist will cheerfully refund your money if PETERSON'S OINTMENT doesn't do everything say it will do.s
 William A. Carley of Franklin, N. Y, is surely a wise man. He writes: T used PERERSONaS OINTMENT on a little boy suffering terribly with ec- zema- It did the work"
 Then there is Alex. Louttel, a brave fireman of Buffalo, who Is glad to write as follows: '1 had an old sore on my leg for many years. The best doctors failed. PETFRSON'S OINTMENT en- tirely healed the sore quickly" And from over in Canada comes letter from A Blockeby, stating: The best thing I ever hit for itching piles is PETERSON'S OINTMENT" A big box for 25 cents

SOMETHING ABOUT PAeANpNI
With George Arliss at Davis Theatre
 Tonight.

Nicolo Paganini, Italian violinist, the hero of Edward Knoblauch's new comedy, in which George Arliss comes to the Davis theatre tonight direct from a brilliant Boston engagement, was born in Genoa, Oct. 2T, 17S2, and died at Nice, May 27, 1840. His fla ther, discerning the talents of his son, put him at an early age under the best masters to learn the violin. With this instrument he was able to per- form in public at the age of nine, in his twelfth year he went to Parma, Rolla and Ghiretti, In 1797 he per formed in the cities of Lombardy and afterwards in the principal cities of all of Italy. He settled at Lucca, in 1905, where he was appointed princi- pal violintst to the court chapel. In 1908 he left Lucca, and for five years lived an obscure and rambling life in Italy. In 1913 he reappeared before the world and performed at Milan. He remained in Italy until 1898, sud denly appearing, and, after exciting unbounded enthusiasm by his public performances, as suddenly departing. Tn the year mentioned, he visited Aus tria and Germany, appearing first in Vienna The wonder which he eX- cited was caused not merely by his extraordinary skill, but also by his personal appearance, which had some thing weird and even demoniacal in it
 His imitation of the f1ageolet and his rendering of whole pieces on the G
 string, were particularly applauded
 The Emperor of Austria appointed him as his chamber virtuoso. and the king of Prussia his director of music After visiting the great towns of Ger many he proceeded to France and | Great Britain. In Paris he produced an unprecedented sensation, and, as
 in Germany, made immense gains. He was equally successful on the other | side of the channel He returned 1T l 1884 to Paris, where he purchased the villa Gajona. Among his compost
 tions, one of the most celebrated is The Carnival of Venice. Get youl
 seats early.

Here's to the boy who's not afraid To do his share Of work; Who by toll is ne'er dlsmayed, And never tries to shirk. Who greets his task without a boast And does 1t with a smile; The boy who's always at his post, Here's to the boy whose life is true To what he knows Is right; Who has enough of red blood, too, To stick in every fight. Who sees the cheerful side of life, And gets his share of fun; Who craNes no part in needless strife And leaves no task undone.
