HEALTH IS woMAN's
 GREATEST ASSET.

Contrast the cheerful happy woman with head erect, the glow of health on her cheeks, the elastic step and bubbling enthusiasm as she goes about her daily tasks, with the woman who suffers from backache, head aches, dragging-down pains, nervous ness and despondency. Such condi- tions are undoubtedly caused by wom- ans ailments which will yield to Lydia F.. Pinkham' Vegetable Compound, which for many, many years has been restoring weak. ailing women to health and strength. Every woman who suffers in this way owes it to her self to at least give it trial.

HENRY E. wALTHALB
 AT PALACE THURSDAY

One of the most unusual romances ever conceived by an author is pre- sented in Allan Dwan's production of "A Splendid Hazard Harold Mac Grath's vigorous narrative of love and buried treasure. 1t presents in true perspective the transitory influence of infatuation as opposed to the solidity and permanence of love that springs from sympathy. understanding and sincere affection.
 "A Splendid Hazard relates the romance of Karl Breitman, who is ob- sessed with an overwhelming ambi- tion and Hedda Colbert, beautiful prinla donna. With the deliberate i'm tention of securing a treasure map in Hedda's possession, Breitman woos the diva although he has no feeling for her. She falls madly in love with him.
 Having secured the map, he ignores the pleas of the woman and sails for America.
 This interesting situation comes to head in a powerful climax in far away Corsica. where Fate untangles the twisted skeins of the romance.

Your Roll Collar Hides Many Defect
By Adelaide KennerIy

Soaking of necks. there is more to be taken into consideration than the collar bone. We have ma ssaged and worked with this bridge of signs" before the mirror hundreds of times.
 If the neck is thin, or the shoul- ders slope too much, beware of the plain, untrimmed low neck blouse or frock, for it will accentuate these un- welcome curves and mar the beauty of what would otherwise be an at tractive picture.
 The girl at the left, whose neck lines are not perfect (coTisidering them from the side and back) has carefully selected a blouse with a high roll collar in the back which not only gives her a ,dressy appearance, but covers the defect. Her head rests too far forwafd on her neck but no one would suspect it because of the frilly collar.
 Very few neckS would be unIove1y II only the front, or the throat, were allowed to show, so it is far more im- portant to become acquainted with the back of the neck, than the col lar bones and the, throat lines.
 The girl at the right is all wrong. she has an unlovely neck and has carelessly selected a blouse because

CHICAGO VAUDEVILLE
 ACT SEEN AT FOX'S

In agreeable contrast to many tire some musical act1 seen on the local vaudeville stage is the little revue, What Next" at FoX's for the last time this evening. Without cxagger- ation, this is a big time act and re- gently played in tho leading vaude- vile houses of Chicago. There are five girls and two men in this act. The girls can sing and dance we'll and have an elaborate wardrobe and the male members of the cast are equal ly capable at entertaining. Hardly less Of feature is Billy Crumby, a colored comedian. He is far better than the average, and last night re- ceived insistent applause. Two sing ing and dancing numbers complete the bill which tomorrow will be changed entirely and will have for its feature another musical comedy skit entitled All Aboard
 The last showing or Douglas Fair banks in The Nut'' will take place this evening. This is a picture of Greenwich Village and is a comedy, pure and simple. It is a distinctly diff ferent comedy, however, from those in which Fairbanks has generally been associated. In this picture the comedy parts are put across by sub tie actions and Iudicrous situations. rather than by athletic stunts or horsepIay. Fantcmas, Fox News, a Chester Outing travelogue and q com edv reel complete the program.
 Opering tomorrow afternoon will be William $. Hart in 'The Testing Block" It presents Hart in an old time role. but one in which he never grows wearisome. He is the good bad man and in this picture has an opportunity of displaying not only his skill as a rider. fighter and actor, but also in portraying a real human being. One terse phrase from the picture gives an insight into its tenseness:
 .I'I fight yoii, all of you, one at a time for the right to go.

HOLDING A HUSBAND Adele Garrison's New Phase of
 Reueldfions Of q Wife

in my soul at that instant to rejoice at the change which had come to her.
 Grace Draper Had Changed.
 For she was no longer the vision of beauty which Dicky had so admired m tho first year of our marriage when she had been the model for so many of his illustrations. At that time her beauty had been fauItless, and had always Telt myself at marked disad- vantage beside her. But even the few years since then. though they had touched me lightly enough. had decid- edly aged her. probably because of tho combination with them of code Of llfe far removed rom mine. and of tho penalties which she had sut- fered for her crimes
 She waa still attractive. her figure was still lissomo. but it and her fea- turea were far too thin, while the brilliant coloring which of old was one of her chief attractions had been replaced by rouge. [ guessed that beneath lt was an un0ecoming pallor. materially detracting from her old charm. Thero was hardness, touch of cheap vulgarity about her also which made her only q carica- ture Of tho woman she once had been. But her lustrous dark eyes were still beautiful, full of unquench- able fire and spirit. But despite them. however. my old jealousy of tho girl slipped from me forever. I no doubt had cause to fcar her. but in this no ments concentrated gaze at her I know thst never could Dicky os at- tracted by her again. knew. also. without vanity that tho tables had turned. and tha. now I had tho ad- vantage of her in personal appear nnce. =
 That she realized the same truth as shc looked at mc--nay. mors, knew thnt had seen it also--was evident in the sudden curlin- of her lips back over her teeth. while into her eyes tor a ileeting second there came the expression of something catlike pre- pairing to spring.
 Linda "A Good Scout"
 How ever held my ground before that look I do not know, but stand notionless I did. looking calmly into her eyes. But when the savage look faded and was replaced by something inscrutable. knew that nothing in my action had changed her intention. She had forced herself into passivity.
  should be unaltered, is it 2" she asked with n little smile. which. in spite of my aversion to her. I had to admit was full of genuine pathos. Prison life IS not generally conducive to the preservation of ones attractiveness.' v T turned involuntarily toward the woman who had admitted me into the house. wondering that Grace Draper should speak of this chapter \ in her life before her. But she was no longer to be seen. and the woman opposite me laughed lightly at my gesture.
 Y "oh. Linda Is a good scout!" she said. she won't listen to anything not intended for her ears. Besides, she knows all about me. I knew her years ago before she was married, and we've kept up sort of friend ship ever since, enough so that I was able to use her to get you here. l knew you woHldn't want tho house. but it seemed n very plausible way of seeing you.''

riage.
