Based on Pepsin

Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the digestant of
albumin. The film is albuminous matter. The
object of Pepsodent is to dissolve it, then to
constantly combat it.
Pepsin long seemed forbidden. It must be act-
waited, and the usual method is an acid harmful
to the teeth. What science has now found is
harmless activating method. Now pepsin can be
applied twice daily &C be left between the
teeth. And five years have proved that this dis
covery opens new dental era.

DOROTHY DALTON
AT COLONIAL IN
HALF AN HOUR"

Another huge audience is assured
at the Colonial theatre this afternoon
and tonight for Dorothy Dalton, one
of the most popular. most talented
and most beautiful women now play
! ing in pictures will be seen there in
her latest Paramount production
Half an Hour" 1t is a play that has
more than the ordinary elements of
appeal while the rich settings make
it noteworthy from scenic stand
point.
The heroine of the story is Lady
Lillian, practically sold by her i'm
poverished father when she became
the wife of Carson. a wealthy Amer
lean. He loves her, but her attitude
toward him finally leads him to treat
her cruelty and she becomes involved
in secret affair with Hugh Patton,
an Englishman of her station in life.
She is about to run away with him
and is at his apartment for that pur-
pose when she learns that he is un-
faithful. At the same time news
comes of his death in motor acct
dent. Dramatic events ensue, at the
end of which Lady Lillian and her
American husband are reconciled.
Miss Dalton is ideally qualified to
portray the aristocratic young wife
and gives spirited and appealing
performance. Her supporting cast
includes Charles Richman, Albert
Barrett, and Frank Losee. Harley
knoles directed and it is a Para
mount picture.
There have been many strange
tales depicted on the screen, but "a
Ffshy Story" Chester comedy.
which will be seen at the Colonial
today. is one of the best comedies
yet offered. The Universal Screen
Magazine and the Kilograms are
other good things.-Aov.
