TO BE DIFFERENT.

Dorothy Gish as that odd bit of
humanity, THE Little Disturber" in
Hearts of the World" and as the
plucky little Battling Jane" won
more admirers in shorter time than
perhaps any other artist before the
camera. To be different from any
one else in the world and still to be
liked by every one who knows her,
is the desire of Dorothy Gish, who
will be seen in perturbation of
Mark Lee Luther's book, "The Hope
Chest" at the Elko theatre tonight
and tomorrow, matinee and evening.
Miss Gish has created every part of
importance she has ever played. She
finds things to do that are original,
funny, and highly entertaining. Her
every action is something that has
never been seen on any screen at any
time, and she has new way of do
ing everything that is done on the
stage.

SHOULD TAKE
PHOSPHATE
Nothing Like Plain Bitro-Phosphate
to Put IN Firm, Healthy Flesh and
to Increase Strength, Vigor
and Nerve Force.

Judging from the countless preparations
n treatments which are continually be-
ing advertised for h purpose Of making
thin people leshy, developing arms. neck
and bust, and replacing ugly hollows and
angles by the soft curved lines of health
n beauty, there are evidently thousands
of men and women who keenly feel their
excessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are often due
to starved nerves. Our bodies need more
phosphate than is contained in modern
foods Physicians claim there is nothing
that will supply this deficiency so well as
the organic phosphate known among drug
gistS as bitro-phosphate; which is mex
pensive and is sold by most all druggists
under q guarantee of satisfaction or money
back. By feeding the nerves directly and
by supplying the body cells with the nee
essary phosphoric food. elements, bitro-
phosphate should produce a welcome
transformation in the appearance; the Inc
crease in weight frequently being aston
lshing.
Increase IN weight also carries with it
a general improvement in the health.
Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack Of
energy. which nearly always accompany
excessive thinness, should disappear, dull
eyes become bright, and pale cheeks glow
with the bloom Of perfect health.
CAUTION: Although b~itro-phosphate
is unsurpassed for relieving nervousness,
sleeplessness and general weakness, 1t
should not, owing to its tendency to In
crease weight, be used by anyone who
does not desire to put on flesh.
