NEUROLOGICAL FERRYMAN
CHARON FILMED IN
"OUR BETTER SELVES

For the first time in motion pic
lures, Charon, the NEUROLOGICAL ferry
man of the ancient Greeks, whose oc-
cupation was the conveying of sou
across the River Styx, has been uti-
lized in feature photoplay.
The concluding scenes of "Our
Better Selves" the latest Fannie
Ward feature vehicle, which plays
at the Royal Theatre tomorrow, de-
pict the souls of the hero and heroine
leaving this terrestrial globe for the
After-World under the guidance of
Charon; and these scenes form some
of the most impressive tableauX
which have ever been seen upon the
silver screen.
The story deals with man and
woman who discovered their better
selves after the severest trials and
suffering, and the keynote Of the play
is exemplified in a caption reading.
Though we may tread upon a road
of thorns for the sins we have lived,
yet we have not lived in vain, be-
cause in the end we have foound our
better selves"

In this photplay, adapted from a
magazine story by Frank R. Adams,
Miss MacLaren appears as the oldest
waif in the Orphanage of Brotherly
Lcve, whose heart is torn between
love for the tiniest tct in the institu-
ton and desire to escape to the out
er world and away from the drudgery
cf the asylum. Her flight from the
orphanage is unmolested by the dis
honest superintendent of the institu
ticn. who wishes to fasten on her the
guilt for robbery he has planned.
She comes to the city in search of
employment, her last hope for a
position is almost shattered when the
eccentric collector tells her she is too
young and good looking for the place.
She disguises her appearance and as
trump obtains the coverted employ
ment. How the new-found happiness
is nearly snatched from her by cruel
circumstances and how she finally
reaps the reward of innocence and
devotion make each incident in "The
Pointing Finger" a source of enjoy
ment.

MacLaren's leading man in her last
picture, Bonnie, Bonnie Lassie."

penetrates her disguise and offers her

Carl Stockdale is the crooked super

Camilla Clark is seen as the tiny waif
and Lillian Rich appears as the girl
who befriends Mary.

TO DARKEN HAIR
APPLY SAGE TEA
Look Young! Bring Its Natural
Color, Gloss and Attrac-
tiveneSS.

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea with sulphur added, will
turn gray, streaked and faded hair
beautifully dark and luxuriant. Just
a few applications will prove a re-
velation if your hair is fading, streak
ed or gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and
Sulphur recipe at home, though, is
troublesome. An easier way is to
get a bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound at any drug store all
ready for use. This is the old-time
recipe improved by the addition of
other ingredients.
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractive
ness. By darkening your hair with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound, no one san tell, because is
does it SO naturally, so evenly. You
just dampen a sponge or soft brush
with it and draw this through your
hair, taking one small strand at a
time; by morning all gray hairs have
disappeared, and, after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, glossy, soft and
luxuriant.

She looked down Mt the glittering stones,
thinking that even diamonds could not
bring help to her, when suddenly n thought
came TO her
She pulled the rope from around her
neck and went to the hole IN the WALL
slowly she pushed the long string of dia-
monds through the hole until she held only
the end and she could see that the sun
was shining on the beautiful lights of all
colors around outside the dungeon.
The queen that morning had wished
to walk IN the garden, and she had wan
dered away from Beta and the other ser
wants and gone 10 the end of the garden,
where there was high brick wall
Il wonder what is on the other SIDE
of that old wall, . thought the queen.
II have never been behind IT,.
SO without saying a word to anyone
she pushed open an old iron gate that WAS
rusty and cracked as It swung back.
The bushes and briars grew thick about
the place. but As the queen looked through
the leaves and brush she saw little flashes
of beautiful colors like those of the rainbow
Il wonder what that can be, thought
the queen, pushing her way through the
bushes until she came nearer the wall OF
the dungeon where little Luceta WAS .
prisoner.
Just then Luceta, thinking she heard
noise outside, shook the rope OF diamonds
and the beautiful colors flashed IN every
direction.
In a few seconds the queen made
her way to the wall, and there dangling
from the little hole in the wall she saw her
rope of diamonds.
Luceta saw her through The hole and
called IN a weak voice that she was q prl-
soner in the damp dungeon
Ii took only short time for the queen
to call for help, and Luceta was taken out
and her story told to the king and queen.
OF course. Beta knew that her treach-
ery was discovered, and when Luceta had
finished telling how she was pushed into
the dungeon Beta could not be found
nor was she ever heard of afterwsrd by
any of the kings household.
The queen was so glad to have Luceta
back and find she had not stolen her
jewels that she begged the king to make
Lucets their heir, as they had no child TO
reign after them.
So Lucets became princess, for the
king adopted her and she married prince,
and when she became queen she had so
won the hearts OF all her subjects by her
goodness that they forgot she was the no.
name girl and called her the Queen of
Hearts.

There was no way for Luccta to get out
of this dungeon, for there WAS only ons
little hole in the wall and through this thu
light crept in tiny stream.
All day she called, but DO one could
hear her the floor Of the palace was sc
thick, and besides that no one ever went
near that part of the castle.
That night Luceta slept on the damp
earth, and the next morning she called
again for help, but no help came, and
she was so weak from hunger she could
call no more.
The sun streaming through the little
hole in the wall made the diamonds
around LIceta's neck glist<n, and until
then she had entirely forgotten them.
