At the Fort Armstrong.

It is Douglas Fairbanks faith
that at times persons when read
ing a book, attending a stage per-
Torrance or viewing q motion pic
ture, should not always be kept in
entire suspense throughout the
whole period. It is obvious that
a strong element of suspense il
vitality necessary for VI to focus
our attention. But on the other
hand are We not able to maintain
our interest in the characters Of
. story II we cannot. at least. sur
mise the solution of the plot! Must
we inject in all Of our stories the
greatest suspense and have that as
the primary factor? OF course it
behooves us to infuse some sus-
pense or perchance the interest IN
our MAY, story or motion picture
would lag.
A case in point is Fairbanks
latest United Artists production.
The Mark OF Zorro" now showing
at the Fort Armstrong theatre. In
it Fairbanks impersonates two
roles. One is that Of the mysteri-
Gus Senior Zorro. crusader in the
interests Of justice. Tho other
role 10 that Of Don Diego Vega. a
wealthy. supine. inactive individu-
al. Amongst the protagouists the
greatest secrecy Is to Zorro's iden-
t:ty il enshrouded. No one appears
able to fathom the mystery. Az a
result Of which the whole country
side had become apprtsed OF his
activities. Both impsrsouations
we're 80 much at variance that with
the exception Of = servant, NO one
could reconcile themselves to the
fact that Don Diego and Senior
Zorro were the one and same per-
son. Yet from almost the com
mencsment Of the picture the au-
d,ence discerns that Zorro Is only
Diego In disguise.

She may not be beautiful, this girl who
wins attention, and other women wonder
what men see in her. Look again, and
the compelling charm proves to be
smooth, fresh, fawless skin, radiant with
the charm Of health.
Such 4 complexion transforms even
plain features and lends beauty to every

achieve if she will learn to give her skin
proper care.

The means was discovered 5000 years

Soap is essential
Nothing takes the place of soap. Use
whatever else you will. But once day,
wash off the oil, dirt, perspiration and
powder, which clog the pores.
To do that you need soap. Not or

The complexion which
always attracts ,,a

is not for faces. Use soap which is an
emollient, which is smooth and balmy in
effect. Such soap is made by modern
science from blended palm and olive oils.
Before you sleep
Use powder and rouge if you wish, but
don't leave them on at night. Remove
them with soft, penetrating, cleansing
lather.
Blackheads and pimples result from
clogged pores. Wash your face lightly
with mild, pure soothing Palmolive soap
and protectyo urselfagainstsk skin troubles.
Millions of women keep their skins
clean and healthy, smooth and fresh, by
the use of Palmolive soap.
10 cents the modest price
No higher price can buy better skin
soap. The supreme ingredients in facial
soap are palm and olive oils.
The Palmolive price is due to man,
moth production. And to our poiicy-to
bring the best within the reach Of all.

titje he has given the story, which
= has written himself. il to us the
most enjoyable Chaplin film we
AVE ever seen. In the first place.

4 is long enough 80 that 1t pro-
vIdes a whole evenings entertain

Had some one told US before We
NV THE Kid" that We could be
oorvinced that the character which
Charlie has always represented on

such way that we could visualize
him as a living, breathing mortal,
" would have been inclined to
