KNICK ERBOCkER-
"The Misfit Wife,"

Snub Pollard, whose single-reei
comedies probably have no equals
upon the screen. has gone to London
for the locale OF his latest camera
farce. and has made the police force
the butt of his tomfoolery. In "A
London Bobby" Pollard. ably and 70
tundly aided by Hughey Mack and
Marie Mosquini, assumes the guise of
a miniature policeman who is as
signed to clean up the toughest alley
in the city.
By a subterfuge that saved him
from the necessity of bodily conflict
and caused him to shine in reflected
glory, he garnered himself promo
tion and then his troubles really be-
gan.
The manner Of their progress threw
capacity audiences into convulsive
laughter yesterday at CrandalFs
Knick Theater, where "A
London Bobby" was shown for the
first time in the Capital as the CHIEF
supplementary feature of one of the
most perfectly balanced bills of the
summer.
The Pathe news, as usual, comprises
another subsidiary feature of the pro-
gram arranged for yesterday and to
day at the Knickerbocker that CEN
tered the attention of the spectators,
Added short reels and excellent musi-
cal accompaniment under the conduc-
torship of Mr.. Sokolove added to the
eptertining quality of the bill.
The chief feature of the early week
program is THE Misit Wife" film
version of Julie Hcrne's stage play,
The Outsider" in which Alice Lake
does the most noteworthy work OF
her career as a star. and a complete
review of which will be found in con
nection with the Metropolitan Thea
ter, where this engrossing subject
also was accorded first presentations
in the Capital yesterday.

up. A few doses of SEVEN BARKS,
natures great remedy, will wake up"
that lazy liver, and make your feel like

make you feel weak, tired out and sick.
You can easily remove the acids and
poisons from your system by taking
from 10 to 20 drops OF SEVEN
BARKS in little water after meals.
II will keep your bowels moving nat
urally every day. cleanse your system
thoroughly, eliminate undgestcd food,
and bring you back to active and nor-
NAL health again.
SEVEN Banks is natures remedy
made from the extracts of roots and
herbs and hasstoo the test for many,
many years, and will certainly give YOU
feeling of new life and vigor. To
feel fresh and fit for your daily duties,
you must keep your stomach and liver
active and bowels regular.
To get and keep we'll ask your drug
gist for SEVEN BARKS. If he is
out Of It, he will get it for YOU. W.
