"CLEOPATRA" HERE ALL THE

NCLEOPATRA" HERE ALL THE
Z! WEEK, WITH DAILY MATINEEs
sAll who see Thcda Bara. in Cleo
patra," William Foxs spectacular film
production that opens At the Academy
tomorrow afternoon for the week.
with matinces daily. will realize the
tremendous difficulties of such an nm
dertakinG. The Imagination Of the
audience is carried back 900 years, in
the settings OF the many hundred
scenes of historical accuracy. Temples
and palaces, in all Eorgeousncss. rep
resent both Egyptian and Roman az
1nencc. This is the occasional screen
production that startles by it's marnifi-
cence and by the hugencss OF its rep
resentation.
kTheda Bara is already an idol of the
screen, but BY her portrayal OF the
passionate and sirenic Cleopatra, she
has advanced as an actress in a way
that is almost Incompatible. She is
said to realize ms Cleopatra every
phase Of amatory enticement that con-
Quered all who came under her inttu-
ence, winning both julius Caesar and
Marc Antony from the call OF leader
sIip. only to be followed by their
dewnfall. 1t Is a graphic story that
hes been exposed with rare fidelity
to-, historical records
There are wonderful battle scenes
such as the battle OF Philippi; Oc-
ta$ips's army coming over the desert
sands on the run to enter Alexandra.
anxR he naval battle at Actium, with
: tRt hdefeat OF Antony and Cleopatra's
shirts, which is the first naval hattie
eyer recorded; it is shown on the
screen for the first time Thousands
oE.people are seen in the production
aHd hundreds of horses. many of them
dthwinE speeding chariots over the
sdhds.
aSleopatra's entry into Tarsus in her
royal barge. propelled by her black
slaves At the oars. is one Of splcndor in
sdtting. IT is her first meeting with
Antony, who succumbs Immediately to
hor charms, and they leave together
on the barge for Alexandria, where he
becomes slave to her bidding. The
feast OF Isis. as II is given at the
p3lace, is another gorgeous display OF
color and effect. The scene in the
Roman Senate and the death Of Caesar,
followed by Antony's Grafton over his
body at the market place. surrounded
by hordes of followers. is also great
and spectacular.
STh,s picture IS declared 10 he the
gTeatest OF ell film productions, the
orchestral music accompaniment being
illustrative OF t&.c. scenes.

Within ten minutes after an appii-
cation of Danderine you can not find a
single trace of dandrun or falling hair
and your scalp will not itch but what
will please you most will be after a few
weeks use. when you see new hair, fine
and downy at flrst--yes-but really new
hair-growing all over the scalp.
4 little Danderine Immediately dou-
blcs the beauty Of your hair. No diff
ference how duh. faded. brittle and
scraggy. just moisten cloth with
Danderine and carefully draw it
through your hair. taking one small
strand at time. The effect Is amaz-
ing-your hair will be light. fluffy and
wavy, and have an appearance OF
abundance: an incompatible lustre,
softness and luxuriance.
Get small bottle OF Knowiton's
Danderine for few cents at any drug
store or toilet counter. and prove that
your hair is as pretty and soft as any

Where the trees gently wave
Lies the one loved SO dearly
In the cold and silent grave.

But this wish, is all in vain
When the evening shades are gath

My grief too deep TO tell
But time will come care not when
