Naomi Childers, who plays the Amer
lean Joan of Arc in the elaborate mill
tary drama "Womanhood,' is one of
the characters typifying the title. AS
a self sacrificing American girl she
dresses herself In armor and aids her
brother in stimulating recruits to en-
list for an army to repel the invader.
So for several days she stalked about
the prosaic studio ward in glittering
steel. 1t was discovered by her di-
rector, W. P. S. Earle. that the armor
was so highly polished that it reflected
the rays of the sun, a circumstance
that made it bad for the camera since
az powerful reflection is bad for the
film. 1t was necessary for him to
indicate to her certain scenes in which
the armor was to be busted with chalk
to "kilr' the reflection, and this is
what he is doing in the picture here
shown.

A Wreck Made to Order.

A movie version Of the Drury Lane
melodrama, "The Whip" is being
made. The racing scenes were photo
graphed during the meet at Saratoga
last summer, and the Long Branch
Flower Show furnished the back
ground for another set of scenes The
most interesting episode of the story
was filmed near Greenwood, Del. This
was the famous railroad wreck scene,
in which a train is wrecked by the
villain in an effort to kill the race
horse about which the plot Is wound.
Ten cars and an engine were purchas-
ed by the movie company, with the
right to wreck the train on a portion
of the right of way of the Greenwood
and Delaware Railroad that provided
a background suitable for the scene.
The cost of making the wreck scene
ran into thousands of dollars.

For the production of 'The Wax
Model Vivian Martin was asked how
long she could hold her breath while a
wax impression was being made of her
face. ooh, about five or six minutes"
carelessly replied the star. The wax
was put in place, but after about thirty
seconds a terrific struggle was observ-
ed underneath the protecting aprons,
and upon removing the wax the purple
visage of the star was found and she
protesting actively against an untimely
end.

FOOT TREATMENT.
Why Your Feet Go to Sleep and How
to Wake Them.

" w fStus
There is hardly a man or woman
who has not experienced the strange
feeling of having his or her foot
asleep. Few Of them really know
what is taking place. Though the pain
is a strange one. the cause is explained
readily.
The strangeness of the foot going
to sleep" is due to a mechanical oh
struction of the great sciatic nerve.
When we sit for a long time with ouI
legs crossed or with the back of the
thigh pressing upon the edge of a chain
the sciatic nerve is squeezed.
The sciatic nerve is the largest in
the body. 1t springs from the small
Of the back and supplies nearly the
whole of the nerves of the leg and
foot. The sciatic, like all other nerves
is really a great bundle of nerve fibers.
each of which has it's own sheath.
The whole nerve is elastic. and pres.
sure on it will fatten it, as a rubber
hose is fattened by pressure. The
nerve fibers are like bundles of thread.
but finer. They run longitudinally,
each thread having it's ending some.
where in a muscle or in the skin and
passing, without branching O commu.
nicating with the other threads with
which it is wrapped up, straight to its
nucleus in some nerve center of the
brain or spinal cord.
How these nerves carry sensation is
not known, but the operation is similar
to that of messages passing by electric
ity over a telegraph wire. If a nerve
fiber be cut it no longer carries sensa-
ton. Sensation can also be Gu off by
COMPRISING a nerve, for the nerve
matter that does the work is soft, and
the sheaths that inclose it are firm,
but elastic. Pressure at one point On a
nerve is similar in it's results to pres
sure on a rubber hose through which
water is passing. In the latter case
the flow of water is stopped. In the
former the soft nerve matter within
the sheath is pushed apart, so that the
continuity is actually broken and the
messages can no longer pass to or fro
over it.
When the pressure on the nerve is
released the soft contents of the sheath
gradually return to their place.

WHAT THE FILM
WORLD IS DOING
Something About the People
Who Make the Photo Plays.
ACCIDENTS THAT ARE GOOD

Thrills Not Reckoned With by the Di-
rector Often Creep Into the Picture.
Once Mary Pickford Was Washed
overboard-Makine a Wreck to Order.
Clothes and Psycholosy-PearI White
Tells Why She Believes In Dreams.
"HRILLS not in the reckoning
of the director sometimes
creep into a movie in the max
ing. When scenes for The
Pride of the Clan" were being photo
graphed an old fishing hulk being used
foundered off Marblehead, Mass. Mary
Pickford was on the deck when the
mishap occurred and was washed into
the briny. to be rescued by Maurice
Tourneur, the director In charge. The
camera on board also went over, but
the camera man stationed on shore
vas not mapping and caught the acci-
dent, and this part of the film has been
embodied in the picture.
Quite as thrilling, but not accidental,
was Jane Calls experience when the
submarine picture Twenty Thousand
Leagues Under the Sea- was being
made. 1t was Miss Calls part to stand
ON the burning deck of a yacht when
all but her had fed and sink into the
ocean, when a torpedo from the sub
marine hit the yacht. The explosion
occurred, and Miss Gail went down,
down, down until she thought she must
strike Davy Jones' locker. At a depth
Of about thirty feet she began the as
cent and finally reached the surface.
The device for submarine photography
vas located near by, and Miss Calls
body was photographed as 1t shot
through the water. Unless some one
can prove to the contrary, the distinc-
ton of being the first woman photo
graphed near the bottom of the sec is
Miss Calls.
