"The Copperhead"
A Play to Thrill
All Classes

At this time, when 100000 men called
to arms have but recently laid down
their weapons and returned to private
life. it is especially fitting that The
Copperhead' should be shown. This
great Paramount-Artcraft special has
been secured by Manager George I. APP
pleby for presentation at the Augusta
Opera House on Friday and Saturday
and if the theatre IS not packed to the
doors. then Augusta will not do as au-
diences elsewhere in every section of
the country have done.
THE Copperhead" was written by Au-
gustus Thomas. recognized as America J
greatest playwright. AS stage play, it
was such a success that it played sea-
son after season. AS a special photo
play feature, it has doubled the success
of the stage version and has been pre-
scented with such success that audiences
have cheered and wept over the Incl
dents depicted on the screen.

Alice Brady In
Film Version of
Her Stage Success

IL The sign Alice Brady in sinners
which illuminated New York's Rialto
| for one theatrical season is now ap-
pearing in several thousand theatres
scattered from Maine TO California.
Today, Alice Brady will be seen in Sin
ners'' at the Colonial theatre. 1t was in
this same play on the stage that Miss
Brady made her most pronounced sue
version, as given by Realart, is even
better than the stage production.
| An outstanding feature of Miss
Brady's work in her new picture is her
quiet yet effective, method of register
| ing strong emotion. Her role is that OF
a young woman who becomes the victim
of circumstances which lead to false
accusations against her. These accusa-
tons are made to her mother in the
presence of a number of acquaintance
and the situation is worked out in a
manner strongly dramatic and yet with
out even the suggestion of melodramatic
tantrums. She does not fly into a rage,
does not tear her hair or scratch out the
eyes Of her accuser. She does not deny
the charges. Indeed. as ultimately de-
velops. it is not even necessary for her
to defend herself. Her mother knows.
/ This, however, is but one incident.
There are many others which might be
mentioned with equal propriety be-
cause they are equally we'll enacted. The
! cast is rather exceptionally strong,
I Kenneth Webb's direction excellent, AMI
photography and atmosphere of the pic
ture wholly satisfactory.
Three other good things are also to be
found on the Colonial program for to-
day; they are the 18th episode of The
Lion Man. the serial in which Jack
Perrin and Kathleen Conner are appear
| ing with such success, a Current Events
| film and an educational scenic feature.

Mystey Of the
Stage in Mary
MacLaren's PLAY

That air of mystery and romance
which has always characterized the
space behind the footlights known as
back stage" and which is always a
source of interest and speculation to the
uninitiated figure largely in Rouge
and Riches" in which Mary Mac
Laren will be seen at the Colonial
theatre Friday. Rouge and Riches"
is a story of New York stage life
giving intimate views of gongs-o n
behind the scenes of a Broadway show.
The photoplay has been made from
Carey Wonderly's popular magazine
story, Myself, Becky" The screen
version sacrifices none of the familiar
atmosphere of Broadway which lent
such a charm to the story.-Adv.

Regular Habits Produce
a Beautiful Complexion
Daily elimination rids the system of poisons.
Women should realize that!

n fANY women complain
N daily of their complexion,
A'A of their headaches and gen.
eral i'll health, little realizing
that the trouble is constipation.
Women, too, are much more sub
ject to such congestion than men,
and much more careless of it.
The result is seen in lusterless,
weary eyes, in sallow, pimply
complexion, in lassitude, bad
breath, and in that word so often
used, ''indisposed."
At the first sign of these symp-
toms the wise woman will take a
laxative, and will see that the
young girl and others in her care
do likewise. DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin is the favorite with thou
sands of women because it is mild
and gentle in its action and in the
end trains the stomach and bowel
muscles to do their work naturally
without the aid of medicine.
This combination of simple Lax
alive herbs with pepsin, which can
be bought at any drug store, is
also a very sterling first-aid in
colds, fevers and other sudden ills
