To Haze Perfect Skin
Throughout the Summer

These days the face needs special
care and attention. Flying dust and
dirt, the beating sun, are severe on any
skin. Their despoiling effects are best
overcome by the application of pure
mercolized wax. This keeps skin and
pores in a cleanly condition, the COM
plexion beautifully white and spotless
Discolored, freckled and roughened
cuticle are actually absorbed by it. One
ounce Of mercolized wax. obtainable at
any drug store, is sufficient to COM
pletely renovate soiled complexion. It
Is used like cold cream, allowed to re-
main on over night, and washed of in
the morning.
As the skin tends to expand in warm
weather, causing wrinkles to form, a
good astringent lotion should be used.
Dissolve l OF. powdered saxolite in y
pt. witch hazel Battle the face in this
during the heat OF the day or before
going out for tneater or social affair
1t is a remarkable skin tightsner and
wrinkle ersssrr-Adv.

PERSONALITIES l HAVE MET.
D. w. Griffith.-Part II.

can never forget the telling of this
by Mr.. Griffith, as Il made such an in
delible impression Hon my mind, and,
with his words still ringing in my ears,
returned to the scene. Strange it was,
but when | drew my fingers once more
across the mute strings of that mando-
lin | believed in the far recesses of nv
mind / could hear the faint strains Of
music coming from the empty box. 1t
was because l had at last merged my
own personality in that of the little
ragged beggar girl whose songs could
be heard in the darkest corners of the
earth.
81 think one of the most surprising
things to master upon first entering pic
lures" Mr.. Griffith remarked 10 me
during these first days, "is the instinct
during scene to turn and look at the
director who is always talking to you.
1t is uncomfortable to feel that you
must always listen, but can never look
at him. We have our lines memor-
Ized and rehearsed on the stage. but
in pictures it is necessary for the
director to guide the actor and ac-
tress, his voice in the background,
stimulating them so they will reach
great heights in their big dramatic
scenes or encouraging them when
they fall short on their little touches
OF subtle comedy"
While we all appreciated Mr. Griffith,
we did not realize what a great artist
he was until we compared his pictures
with those of other studios. That was
the time when the dramatic critics paid
very little heed to the artistic efforts of
the camera and we were considered by
the stars of the stage as being very
minor consultations.
But one joyful day Mack Sennett ap-
peared at the studio with a Dramatic
Mirror under his arm, and We gathered
around in a circle to read with open
eyed wonder an eulogy of Griffith
made pictures. 1t spoke of this direc-
tor having given the master touch to
moving pictures which they had always
lacked, making them no longer shadows
upon the screen, but living people in
characters with hearts and souls.
Although we all loved and respected
him, we stood a little in awe Of him be-
cause of that dominant, sll-guiding
mind
Tomorrow | will tell you a little of
our life at the old Biograph studio un-
der Mr.. Griffith's direction.

what became Of the indigestion and
distress.
Millions of men and women today

stomach. A little Diapepsin occas-

If your stomach doesn't take care of
your liberal limit without rebellion;
if your food is damage instead of a
help, remember the quickest, surest,
most harmless relief is Pape's Dia-

a weak, disordered stomach. it's so
unnecessary.
