"IA CREOLE" HAIR DRESSING.
CREDIT FOR SAVING PARIS
 IS NOW GIVEN TO ITALY

Opinion 0 E. Alexander Powell fla nous War Correspondent, will be backed by anyone attending perform ance of "ltaly'Flaming Front at the Best Theatre Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
 The part that Italy has played since her declaration of war on Aus trai entities her to the respect and thanks of the enemies of Teutonic autocracy the world over The most graphic. and comprehensive idea of 1taly's fighting powers can be gath cred from a visit to the Best Thea tre.
 You've heard of the Blue Devils of France, but if you want to see the fearless and unconquerable White Devils" of Italy in action. don't miss the stupendous official War film that is "ltalys Flaming Front" The White Devils" of the Italian army are the white-clad fighting men Of the mountains. who have anliste dthe secrets of nature in their struggle against the enemy. Their fighting ground is amid the eternal SHOWS of the highest mountains in Southern Europe, and their surprising tactics have on many an occasion struck ter TOT into the hearts of their oppon- ents. Seeing is not believeing where the "White Devils are concerned. For example, ill the distance the enc my observes snow covered moun- tain side Suddenly, this unmovabe mountain side begins to advance to- ward him. Spellbound the enemy sees it coming closer and closer, lika an avalanche, and not until it is too late does he realize that it is not snowclad mountain side, but a great army of White Devils who have stolen page out of natures book and have swept down upon the foe before he is aware
 The stupendous obstacles that had to be overcome by Italian ingenuity makes the story of the Panama Can al sink into insignificance in com parison. With background of eter- nal snow and at an altitude often over 10000 feet above the sea, these daredevils the clouds perform feats that seem impossible.
 Whole regiments of men moving through the air on cables that look like frail spider threads ammunition transported with lightning rapidity from peak to peak; engineers swing ing in the air at their daily tasks, q chasm 5000 feet deep yawning be- fore them men and aircraft flashing hitherto and thither in the air like super-birds; avalanches pried loose and sent on their death-dealing course toward the enemy-these are but few of the thrilling episodes in the great film record of the achieve ments of Jtalys fighting men on the mountain front.

Fayetteville, Ark. Nov. 27.-A light of apprehension burns nervous ly in the eye 0 every 'possum in Ar kansas. He has cause to worry, for the persimmonless day is at hand for him.

them of great benefit to me. I have
had attacks of kidney trouble when I
would suffer severely with dull pains
in the small Of my back and often
when I bent over. l could hardly
straighten. The kidney secretions
would be too free in passage and very
annoying in other ways. I would suf-
