The Sins of the: Children, which ia to be the star attraction at the Breed today and Saturday is among the mosi important screen productions of the year. It is g story built upon the in. discretions of the younger generation who are allowed to face life in theiT own manner, unguided by the hands of their parents. 1t is from the pen of the distinguished author. Cosmo Hamilton, and was produced upon a lavish scale. Many of the scenes deal with high life under the glare of the Great White Way. Temples of Folly, oriental dance palaces. and the gayety of the side lights Of Broadway are presented in all their original brillian : cy and garishness.
 One of the sensational departures aS this remarkable picture is. the rendi- ton of a dance called The Passions oS the Four Seasons. This scene takes place in. the Khedive Palace and is performed by Mile. Ea1abar, the fa- nous Parisian dance queen.
 ; Olive Thomas, with an exceptionaTfe fine supporting cast. headed by Matt Moore. will also be seen in The Glori- ous Lady. This is a highly emotion al dramatic picture with beautiful Olive Thomas in the most charming role of her career.

This Medicine Recommended by a Doctor

When a doctor uses medicine hiM- self besides prescribing it to his patients, he must know that it has merit.
 This is what pr. J. H. Wagner, proul- inent physician of Skate Kentucky. has to say about pr. Hartman's well-known remedy, PE-RU-NA: q have used PIE RU-NA myself for catarrh and have given it to others for catarrh, bloating after eating and other ailments. It has proved a success in all cases with old and young men and women. All speak well of PE-RU-NA. It is the best of all tonics"
 Dr. Wagner, out of the fu1lness of his own personal experience, for the good of all sick and suffering, recommends q medicine which he knows to be good. You may be sure doctor would net en- danger his professional reputation by endorsing PE-RU-NA unless satisfied be- yond doubt of it's value.
 Whether your trouble De E ccngh oR 8. cold, or 9 more subtle catarrhal eIeeIian of the stomach, bowels or other organs give PE-Ru-NA Q trial. The immediate improvement which you will see will sat- PE-RT-NA iswhat you need. chased anywhere in tablet or liquid form.
