MAJESTIC.

The motion picture fans Of Tulsa
everyone OF whom is an ardent ad-
mirer OF Baby Marie Osborne, the
charming little child star. will find
her more delightful than ever in her
latest f!ye-reel feature Captain
Kiddo" In which she is being featured
az the Majestic theater today. The
picture has heart interest, many COM
edy touches. thrills. suspense, drama,
clever star, a fine cast. and good
production thruout. As its name in
dIcates. II has 70 do with pirates.
In Captain Kiddo." Baby Marie
plays q little girl who decides to be-
come pirate The circumstance
which causes this determination is her
discovery when reading d pirate book
that these gentlemen were in the habit
OF making anyone they didn't ike

appears 20 her and she determines to
make that bad man who seems al
ways to be annoying her young,
widowed mother. walk the plank
pronto,
When the scene was actually to be
taken the kiddies heart relented. She
could not bear 70 see even the villain
in the play thrown into the sea. In
fact she refused 10 give the COMMAND
which was necessary and il was only
after a great deal Of persuasion on
the part OF Director Eugene Moore
and her real mother, in which they
convinced her that there was really
no danger. that she consented TO do 1t.
There is a great deal Of action, and
among a number Of thrills is a scene
in which Marie hides in a barrel on
the smugglers boat and later is hurled
by the men who are ignorant of the
true contents Of the cask from a high
cliff into the ocean below.
During the filming Of the play
George Washington White, coll
ored understudy, was told by
the director 10 fall down a low
flight Of carpeted stairs. He re-

stomach trouble and neuralgia and
the agony she suffered was something
awful Most everything she would eat
disagreed with her and gave her no
end Of trouble. Many a time she
would wake me up in the night with
such terrible neuralgic pain in her
neck chest and shoulders that she
wasn't able TO speak or raise herslf

and was SO tired and worn out by
morning she would hardly be able to
get up at all She got TO the point
where she spent most Of her time in
bed and had to give up her house
work and l was really afraid she
would never get well.

my friends had taken Tanlac and that
caused me to get a bottle for my
