At Palace Theatre Tonight.

Fatty" Arbuckle, the rotund Paraz
mount comedian who WILDE seen at
the Palace theatre tonight in FATTY
in oCney Island,o had the time Of
his life taking the beach scenes for
that release. AS the namc suggests,
the whole picture wa lined at ia
NOUS oCney Island, New York, and
as Mr.. Arbuckfe expected to leave
shortly for the west, the scenes had
to be taken during the Mardi Gras
week, when the place was sWarmed
with hundreds of thousands Of riot
Gus merrymakers. Of all his dis
guises, save, of course, the time-hon-
ored overalls and derby, "Fatty,s'
most becoming and funniest is de-
mure bathing suit which he wears IN
this newest Paramount comedy. His
adventures in the famous beach re-
sort are wonders and the scenes were
actually filmed there during the re-
gent Mardi RAGS festival.

Here are two practical pic-crust
hints. They were given to us by a
cook whose wholesome Cottolene
pie-Crust was tender and flaky treat.
Hint No. l. Always chop your
shortening nginto the hourwith knives.
Don't mix it in with your hands.
Hint No. 2. Always keep your
shortening and your dough as cold
as possible.
Just forgetting the money-saving
in using Cottolene, why don't you
compare your economical Cottolene
pie-crust with your very best pie
crust made with half of butter?"
If you follow your own recipe,
De sure to use one-thrd less of Cotto-
lene than you ordinarily use of other
shortening. Cottolene goes farther
because it is richer.
"A great many particular women
who used to use part butter are now
using wholesome Cottolene a one
