POLI'S-"The Lady in Red"

THE Lady in Red" a new musical
comedy as colorful as its title, sang
and danced itself into the good graces
Of a Sunday audience at Polls last
night. The book and lyrics are by
Anne Caldwell, and Robert Winter
berg wrote the score. Pretty girls dis
port gracefully throughout the three
acts. headed by Adele Rowland. whose
vaudevilleish role was all the more
captivating because Of the impish i'm
preston conveyed that she was hav-
willing the audience should share.
The plot concerns a society girl who,
in visiting an art gallery along with
an assemblage Of patrons (wlfo sing
and dance around exactly as art
critics don't do), recognizes her por-
trait in an Eve sort of person rest
ing on a cloud with wisp of red
gauze on the side. Everybody 10
properly Acandalized. The artist sells
Eve to a soep manufacturer, who con-
verts high art into an everyday ad;
which means more complications, ex-
pressed In more singing, dancing and
changes Of slippers and chtffons. ..
Franklyn Ardell, as the soap manu-
self from the romantic onslaught of
cubist vampire, whose burlesque of
the grand passion. illustrated by truly
remarkable dancing, captured rounds
of applause. Bertee Beaumonte, who
plays the role, also scores in q song
chorus. the "Garibaidi Band" and
later docs an Egyptian dance with
Edmund Makalif which called for q
double encore. Another clever sps.-

An interesting movie story is un-
folded at the Rialto this week in
Hearts of Men," George Beban's first
picture under his own management
The story concerns Nicocolo. devoted
to his mother and his motherless boy,
who Is urged to go to America, where
1t is expected the rare!ied air Of Ari-
zona will benefit his son. Desert land
is sold to the unsophisticated man.
to which he goes with his boy. Amer
icans, road building near Niccolo' 8
farm, first decide to chase him away.
but the boy wins them over, and when
they discover the father has a heart
Of gold everybody chips in with labor
and money to make him comfortable.
the boy gives her q great welcome.
but the change proves a failure. as
she dies. The men at the camp per-
suade Niooolo to marry again a faith
less girl, who is intrusted to take the
boy back to Italy for visit. Then
comes heart-breaking news Of the
death OF the little one, which nearly
wrecks Niocolo. but 1t proves untrue
and the boy is brought back to the
father for g. great scene At the desert
shack. Later Niccolo discovers oil on
his farm. divides up with his big
hearted companions and all ends hap
PLY.
At the end OF the picture Mr.. BebAn
was given q great personal reception.
He spoke entertainingly of the making
Of the play, and then introduced his
boy and another hilarious time fol-
lowed. Supplemental pictures and a

THE BEST OF MEDICINES. :
BY H. ADDINGTON BRUCE.
iCopyriGht, l0lo.l

Remember always that in treating
the sick or nursing the sick there is
nothing CT quite such Importance as
fulness is far and away the best Off
medicines.
Listen to this recent testimony By q
physician OF nearly half q centurysa
active practice. DR.. Charles W. Page
Of Hartford. Conn:
Tho more I have accumulated ex-
perience. especially with medical men.
the moro firmly have been convinced.
that optimism Is the chief construc,,
tive foroe In human Affairs, and TINT
its possession by a medical man 10 -
requisite for professional success. - !,
"A medical man who is well fortis
1ed with an optimistio personality 10
certain to meet with the most favor
able conditions for developing in
others hopeful stimulating thoughts
and moral courRge-the best method
by which to charm and invigorate the
patients mind. mollify his burden Of
i'll health and pave the way for ffh.
provement in bodily conditions. 80
ITO cope successfully with demor.
alised ideas OF the anxious sick. A
they crop out in all sorts and condi-s,
tions OF patients. . physician with
pronounced optimistic personality will
find frequent occasion to exercise all
the wit and wisdom he can command.
yet no service he can render to dis
quieted invalids will be more effica-
ciouS or better rewarded than will be
the eneraftine into the minds Of his
patients feelings OF courage and up
lifting trains OF thought"
But II the exercise OF optimism 10
incumbent on the physician. It 10 even
more incumbent on those called upon
to care for sick people in their homes
r.. The physician sees his patient for
only q few minutes at time. Lat
him be ever so optimistic. his efforts
will count for little unless reinforced
by optimism on the part OF those con. .
tinually in contact with the sick
person. g
No matter how anxious they may
feel regarding the outcome Of the ILL
ness, they must oontrive to keep up
a hopeful look and manner.
+ Otherwise doubt and fear will
fasten upon the patient. Consciously
or subconsctously he will think TO-
himself: - "a.
at 10 all very fine for the doctor To-,
talk so hopefully. He ID only trying to-
fool me. Everybody else admits that
aTa,n'ys aR a. good as de.d' as their faces 'h0"
In proportion as this unhappy idea
grips him, his resistive power will grow
less and less, until at last the odds win
be all on the side Of the disease from
which he suffers. s-G'
OF course, 1t is hard to appear hope~.
full and to talk hopefully whom bsset
with anxiety for the health OF a loved
one. The whole tendency Is in the direc-
tfon Of an excessive pessimism.
But for the sake OF that loved one this /
tendency must be overcome. Else q "a.
tai outcome may be made certain. and
even II recovery eventually take place it
Ia certain to be needlessly delayed.
