The body is a highly organized
machine of complicated parts in
which the stomach, liver and the
kidneys work for the common
good. Damage to any one of
these organs intcrferes with man
as motor mechanism. If you
clean the stomach. liver and
bowels occasionally with a gentle
laxative YOU can keep well. Too
much fuel in mans machine, such
as eating too much meat, or
alcohol or tea, nervous overwork
and lack of exercise in outdoor
air bring constipation and bad
health. Eat less meat, plenty Of
vegetables, and with air and good
exercise you need little else. If
the liver needs rousing-and most
of us need this once a week

own is sacred. He does not hate his
enemy because of the harm he has
done to him, but because of the con-
tempt with which lies and treason
inspire him. These generous traits are
found in almost all of his roles.
HE never uses the artifice OF the
atrical makeup to create his various
roles, but searches within himself for
the psychological traits which diff
ferentiate his character and gesture;
but few actors of the spoken drama
are as natural and unaffected as he.
Whether Hart is a calculator Of
effects. or a born actor matters lit
tie; l consider only the results OBJ
taned-the image which the screen
presents to me.
II am persuaded that there is a
great deal of craftsmanship in all
he does, but since it is well done,
one is seldom aware of It. He has
the calm and sangfroid of n great
actor. who even in the transport OF
passion keeps an eye on himself.
ION this mask of an honest man
which he has adopted, emotion ap-
pears at a desired time, although 1t
has the effect OF springing spontan-
eously from circumstances He is
never on his guard against the blow
he will receive. and plays as though
absolutely ignorant of what will
happen to him. He knows how to
contain himself. and to burst forth
at the right moment, and this out
burst is superb, because it is pro-
foundly human.
The art of William S. Hart has
the flavor of the unaffected artistry
of our inimitable Jodelet, and it is
refreshing to see an actor on the
screen return to the true tradition
of ancient comedy"
