Catarrhal Deafness Cannot
Be Cured

DS 81
BY local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way to cure catarrhal
deafness, and that is by a constitutional
remedy. Catarrhal Deafness ia caused by
an inhamed condition of the mucous lin.
Ing Of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube il inlamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing and when il
is entirely closed, Deafness il the result.
Unless the inflammation a be reduced
and this tube restored to it's normal con-
dltion, hearing will be destroyed forever.
Many cases Of deafness are caused by
catarrh, which il an inf1amed condition
OF the mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrh
Medicine acts thru the blood on the ma
cous surfaces OF the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case Of Catarrhal Deafness that can
be cured by Hall' Catarrh Medicine.

"CLEOPATRA, WITH THEOA bARA, OPENS
 AT LAMARA. TODAY

With the beginning today of the en- gagement at the Lamara of Theda Bara, starring in the magnificent spec tacle. "Cleopatra." Phoenix will be gwen the opportunity for seeing pre- sented with startling daring all the passions, loves and pageants of Egypt's famous vampire queen, portrayed by the worlds foremost interpreter of siren roles.
 Produced on a scale hitherto un- heard of for lavishness and magnitude. "Cleopatra' takes its place as one of the grandest and most beautiful of all the film offerings.
 Certainly it is by far the most pre- tentious role Theda Bara has ever as- sumed. Giving her audiences a most intimate study of the personal side of the most famous woman the world ha $ ever known, she enters into the spirit Of tfe delineation with a perfect un- derstanGing brought about through her familiarity with types of this sort and supplemented by the result of her insistent and concentrated research through every source of information she could procure tending to bare the loves of the queen whose favor meant death to those on whom she deigned to smile.
 Cleopa tra's one ambition was to rule the world. Her method was to attract men. plying on their senses and relying on her charms to offset any antago- nistic symptoms that might develop were her rear ambitions suspected. In this important role. Theda Bara is called upon to present herself in her

MARY P|CKFORD IN
 "POLLyANNA" BIG
 COLUMBIA FEATURE

The elixir of childs love and it's power to strai3hten the viewpoint of men and women whose outlook on life has been distorted is being demon . strated at the Columbia theater in Mary Pickford's latest and greatest film play, "Polyanna," her first United Artists production. 'Pollyanna will be the Columbia feature again today, Friday and Saturday.
 This picture differs from any of Miss Pickford's recent productions, for in it she portrays a little girl through out the entire picture. There is nothing more convincing than Miss Pickford' s characterization in this offering. She does not merely act the part of little girl in this offering; she is little girl.
 As Pollyanna Whittier, Mary Pick ford quickly wins her way 10 the hearts Of those who watch the play and succeeds in holding their deepest sympathy until the very last flicker in the final fade -out. There is a depth of feeling in this offering that has never been shown in any other pro- duction. Miss Pickford puts all the delicate shading into her work that only a great artist is capable of. often carries her audience to a tear. and then suddenly snaps the tension by a bit of quaint. laugh provoking comedy
 A special program of glad music"

The days have become limited in which Phoenix theatergoers may still see Common Law" the drama which is drawing capacity houses at the Elks theater this week.
 Miss Wilma Steck, leading woman actress in the popular local cast, has thrown aside her winsomeness in this production, and assumed a superior role, one in which she interprets the deep love and suffering of a woman.
 She is supported admirably by every member of the cast, who are decidedly at their best Howard Nugent steps to the foreground in Common Law" a $ he portrays part requiring extreme dramatic ability.

WIPES HEALTH MADE HIM QUIT HOMESTEAD

Claiming that the health of his wife and child demanded constant medical attention so that they were compelled to be absent from their homestead, James F.. Martin yesterday filed his answer in the contest proceeding brought against him in the l.. $. land office by Louis NJ. Chirros. Chirros alleges that Martin abandoned his homestead near Casa Grande and that he failed to establish his residence there.
 The contestee, through his attorney stephen Rayburn. cailms that he es- tabliShed his residence on the home stead in good faith. He claims that he cleared 20 acres and made improve ments, and only health conditions made it necessary for him to go to California where his wife and child are under the care of q physician. He alleges that the contest action was brought at the instance of another for speculative purposes, claiming that a price had even been set on the property if the entry was cancelled. He gave the price as $1 900.

Last of "BIind Husbands.v

Today offers the last opportunity for witnessing at the Strand Stoheim $ wonder play, Blind Husbands" the photoplay that lives its mission. Blind Husbands" has proven most unusual attraction from every angie It tells a story of modern life-startlingly hu- man and powerful in its never ceasing hold on the. reviewer, amazing in its climax and daring in it's entire theme and action. But with all it's daring, and with all it's unusualness, there is nothing to offend in the portrayal. On the contrary, it's very humanness lends it a charm that cannot be estimated, and that wonderful continuity With which Stroheim has handled the story lifts the drama to the lead of all the intense types of photoplay entertain ments for the past season. Through out the screening of the entire S2oo feet there are but 25 sub-tities, as against several hundred in the ordi- nary photoplay of this length. a mag nificent tribute to the skill of Stro- helm. who made Blind Husbands possible.
