.'BIIND HUSBANDS

Probably no better example OF the
insidious love vulture was ever pre-
sented on the screen than that por-
trayed by Eric Stroheim in his new
photodrama of the Alps, Blind Hus-
bands" the current attraction at he
Rex theatre Monday.
Strotheim is seen as Lieut.. Eric
Won Steuben. late of the Austrian
army. who has been invalided be-
cause of shell-shock and seeks re-
treat in a little mountain resort on
the Austro-Italian frontier. There
he meets Margaret Armstrong, wife
of a famous American surgeon, who
with her husband has also come to
the Alps for rest.
Blind Husbands is heralded as
a wonder-picture not only from the
fact that it represents the first at.
tempt of Stroheim at directing, but
because the picture tells one of the
most absorbing stories ever recorded
on the screen. For pure punch and
dramatic suspense critics declare Il
to be supreme.

average film production in thai It's
theme involves mental rather thah
physical complications. The stree'
Called Straight" has a deep though'
underlying it, and appeals to the In
telligence of the spectator as well AZ
to his emotions.
Technically, the picture is as close
to perfection as modern motion pic
tire art can make it. The sets rep
resent perfectly the high station II
life occupied by the characters; ane

culture and refinement to be founf

Beautiful photography reveals many

eased off and then sold at handsome
profit.
The solution which which many
members of congress seem to be aim
ing at is one that would put a tax on
a corporation as a unit if it failed to
distribute its profits. 1t would still be
optional with the corporation whether
it distributed or not but the business
would have to pay virtually a penalty
for that method of handling its profits.
The penalty might he fifteen per cent
one year. ten per cent the next, five
per cent the third year and so on with
the result that corporations. and other
business which didn t distribute their
profits would pay a higher tax for the
privilege of Withholding the distribu
ton than if they actually paid their
dividends in cash. The purpose would
be to compel distribution of dividends
in cash instead Of stock.

full expenditure of $2,000000 for Smell

the Republican majority in congress by
Homer S. Cummings chairman of the
Democratic national committee, in the
address here at dinner attended by
Democratic leaders of Kentucky.
The committees. Chairman Cummings
said, were appointed to ascertain
whether there had been any graft in
the conduct of the World war but in

it does not lie in the mouths of those
who conducted the Spanish American
war to indulge in the luxury of crit

compare with the tvphoid-infected

there in this war TO compare to the
embalmed beef scandal of the Spanish

You Can't Brush Or
Wash Out DandruH

The only sure way to get rid of
dandruff is to dissolve it, then you
destroy it entirely. To do this, get
about four ounces of ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when retr-
ing; use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger
tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning,
most if not all. of your dandruff Will
be gone, and three or four more sp-
plications will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, no matter how much
dandruff you may have.
You will find too. that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy.
Iustrous. glossy, silky ard soft. and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work.-Adv.

This WILL INTEREST
STOMACH SUFFERERS
Says Indigestion comes from an
excess of hydrochloric
acid.

well-known authority states that
Stomach trouble and indigestion is
nearly always due to acidity-acid
stomach-and not, as most folks be-
lieve, from a lack of digestive juices
He states that an excess of hydro
chloric acid in the stomach retards
digestion and starts food fermentation,
then our meals sour like garbage in a
can, forming acrid fluids and gases
which initiate the stomach like a toy
balloon. We then get that heavy,
lumpy feeling in the chest. we eruc-
tate sour food. belch gas, or have
heartburn. flatulence, waterbrash, or
nausea.
He tells US to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead, get from any phar-
macy four ounces of Jad Salts and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of wa
ter before breakfast while it is effer-
vescing, and furthermore, to continue
this for one week While relief fol-
lows the first dose, it is important to
neutralize the acidity, remove the gas
making mass. start the liver, stimu-
late the kidneys and thus promote a
free flow of pure digestive juices.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice. combined with lithia and sodium
phosphate. This harmless salts is used
by thousands of people for stomach
trouble with excellent results.-Ady.
