JAPANESEG|VES
LIFE FOR Love

Sessue Hayakawa, the noted Jap
anese screen star, has achieved not
able successes in a wide range o;
roles. He has been seen as a Mexican,
as an American bandit and in a long
list OF parts representing many ma
tionalities, but 1t was in playing parts
Of his own nationality that he first
won fame and it Is conceded that when
he appears as a Japanese, he is pre-
eminent in the screen world His part
in Forbidden Paths" a Lasky-para
mount production, which is the fea'ur;
offering of the program at the Libe.
theater, fully demonstrates this.
The picture is a narrative Of the
hopeless love of Japanese for :
young American girl. The man t.
whom she has given her heart has al
lowed herself to be won away by the
adventures and learns his mistake
only after he has married her. The
climax of the story is reached in a
powerful dramatic scene in which the
japanese and the adventures are at
sea in a launch. To insure the hap
piness of the girl the Oriental carries
out a plan he has made and scuttles
the craft He and the woman 90 down
together.
The program, which will be shown
for the last time tonight, includes the
new instalment of the serial picture
The Mystery of The Double Cross"
and the Weekly Pathe News pictures.

HAWAII DRAMA
IS HUMAN APPEAL

One of the biggest photoplay sue
cesses ever produced by William Fox,
The Derelict," is the feature offering
of the weekend bill at the Hawaii
theater. Stuart Holmes, who was re-
Gently seen here ip the Scarlet Let
ter" is the star and in the new produc-
ton he returns to the kind of char
acter upon which most of his fame as
screen favorite rests. In the role of
a vagabond outcast it is stated that
the star has no equals in filmdorn.
With Holmes in, the picture also ap-
pear Mary Martin and Dan Mason,
both of whom won praise for parts
they played in the Scarlet Letter"
1.-THE Derelict" is picture that car.
ries an intense human appeal. 1t
chronicles the life OF, a wastrel ne'er
do well, who neglects home, family
and position for the fleeting pleasures
of gay life. With wife and daughter
forgotten, he is caught in the whirl Of
wild night life and is carried down
to his fate. A great climax is devolved
when he saves the daughter who long
since has forgotten her dissolute
father. ~
Included in the bill is the Billy West
comedy, Back Stage" which has been
held over from the first part Of the
week, and the new instalment Of the
serial, "The Neglected Wife"

APPEAL TOU. 5,

| The triumphal march Of Joan the
Woman" will begin tomorrow night
at the Bijou theater to the accompani-
ment Of the strains Of the Bijou's new
SIC, 900 organ which has been install
ed the forepart Of the week. For those
who do not comprehend the tremen-
| dousness Of the theme, there Is much
| to wonder at, for not only does Joan
the Woman" make a strong appeal in
| behalf of all France, but 1t carries a
| message of loyalty and patriotism,
significant in the light Of current
events. Change the locale and envir.
onment Of the play and 1t will appeal
| direct to Americans for the atmos-
phere breathes determination to up.
hold national rights against the in
and Justice in the face Of oppression.
Whether you term Joan's patriotic
enthusiasm a fanatical mania or re-
| ligious fervor or inspiration, the fact
still remains that 1t was an enthus'
iasm which swayed all France from
the king to the lowliest Of his vas
sails and caused them to rise with
new vigor and shake off the yoke OF
the despot And the same spirit that
Joan breathed in life prevails on the
screen; Geraldine Farrar carries the
same message OF appeal to America
today in this hour Of world-struggle
that the Maid OF Orleans did centuries
ago.
With Divs Farrar in transcendent
role. the Supporting cast is collec-
ton Of stars, including Wall0ce Reid
in the role OF Eric Trent, British
count ravaging Orleans: Hobart Bos-
worth as General la Hire; Raymond
Hstton as Charles VII; Theodore ROB-
erts as Pierre Cauchon; Tully Mar
shall as the fanatical monk; Charles
Clary as La Tremouille (the SPIDER,
and many others we'll known to movie
fans.
Miss Farrar is superb in this pic.
ture Her facial expression, the SINGER
ity Of her action and the conviction
carried in every move are master
pieces of acting.

UNIQUE RECORD
Very Few Like It In Our BrOaS
 Republic

Grateful testimony for Doan's Kidney Pills, published everywhere is Of itself convincing of merit. Confirmed testimony forms still stronger evidence. Years ago Mrs. Mason gratefully acknowledged the benefit derived from Doan's Kidney Pills. The statement is now con- firmed-the proof more convincing. Cares of this kind are plentiful in tho work of Doans' Kidney Pills the record is unique.
 Mrs. David Mason, 2715 East c St., Tacoma, Wash, says: q had a dull, heavy ache in my back and 1t was lame and weak. Severe head aches and dizzy spells were com mon. The kidney secretions passed too often and l always felt tired and w0rnout. Doan's Kidney Pills rid me of the trouble" (Statement given September 19, 1913.)
 On November 5, 1915 Mrs. Mason said: q have used Doan's Kidney Pills since last recommending them and have found them just as effec- tive as in the past"
 Price soc, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy - get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Mason has twice public lv recommended. Foster Milburn Co.,, Props, Buffalo, N. Y.

From the Northern Lumber Mills, of Juneau, will be shipped to New York i'll q few days approximately 5O,O0O feet of Sitka spruce which will De used in aeroplane cOnstruc- ton. This lumber was purchased by x. D. Chetham, of New York, representing large Eastern manu- lecturers who was recently in that city. Already over 20,0O0,OOO feet Of this lumber has been sent out side for aeroplape construction. It is considered excellent for these delicate airships on account of it's toughness and pliablity. "Sitka" spruce is the forestry name for Al askan spruce. t is considered far better frr aeroplane construction than the spruce obtained in the Pa cific Coast states.
 The aircraft board of the United states has sent an expert to the west to investigate with view to securing vast Quanties of aero plane timber. After a search pt the world for two years the Allied Governments have concluded that the Sitka spruce was the best adapted to aeroplane construction. Lasl year the Allies bought 26,- 900, GOO feet of it and this year they want 32,OOO,OOO feet. In addi- tion to this the United States gov ernment has come into the. market for 25,OOO,OOO feet.
