Constance TaImadge in "a Pair OF
SILK Sfockindsu Isis Last Day.


In these days when the pubic Is
showing a decided preference for pic
lures which sound a cheerful note
and combine comedy and drama, this
production will add to the growing
popularity of this vivacious young
star. The play, "A Pair OF SILK STOCK
ings," showing at Isis today Tor the
last time, has an English setting and
was picturized from the famous stage
success of Cyril Harcourt by EDITH
NJ. Kennedy.
The story relates the adventures or
a number of young people at coun-
try house and the complications are
highly amusing as well as dramatic.
Constance Talmadge's skill as a
coincidence is Well displayed in the
part of pretty Mollie Thornhill, who
mysterfously loses the silk stockings
that play such an important part in
the drama Harrison Ford is her hus-
band and their troubles are bounded
on the north by a quarrel over a mo-
tor car and on the south by the luck
less stockings.

"One of the most pleasing and thor

has been witnessed in Birmingham
this entire season was given by Rich

Jefferson Theater last night, and Ger
tain it is that few shows have been
greeted by more laughter and sincere
applause than was accorded Richards
for he has one of the finest and most
deliberately staged shows that has
appeared here in an age. Richards is
in class by himself, for he not only
mystified with his innumerable rr1cks
and illusions. but he really entertained
and kept the audience in an almost
constant uproar of laughter. He has
a very pleasing personality, is good to
look upon, and works with an eAse
and grace that is very refreshing He

Mr.. Richards also produces a regu-
lar Barnum's menagerie of animals,
fowls, chickens, ducks, rabbits, etc,
from nowhere which We're a huge de-
light to the children. The costumng

a veritable maze of mystery, beauty
and laughter

special scenery, oriental tapestries,
costumes and effects are carried with
the Richards production, making it a
veritable blaze of color, a rainbow of
