THEATRES
Today and Tomorrow at the Ditma

To-day and Tomorrow at the Ditmas
Today ends the run of THE
Greatest Love" featuring Vera Cor
don at the Ditmas theatre. This Is
n of the greatest mother pictures
ever produced. The program also
includes Dempsey and Carpenter in
the uE to the minute picture, The
Fighx of the Age"
.Edother Eternal is the name OF
thu new photodrama, which comes
~ tho Ditmas theatre.
The author-director in this picture
\tears the mask off the face of hui
A mainly and shows up the burrows
of grief, pain, helplessness; the
dumb suffering of the mother who
tries to console herself with one
fading ray Of hope. When the moth
er discovers that she must make
the supreme sacrifice the acting OF
Vivian Martin as the mother can be
said without parallel. The story runs
straight and true and causes n to
marvel at the self-restraint prac-
ticed by the author-director in not
permitting himself to take advan-
tage OF the natural opportunity for
padding hat offers itself.
Beyond question of a doubt
Mother Eternal will do more TO
bring about complete understanding
between parents and their children
than any other film play or spoken
drama yet produced.

Tad:f and Tomorrow at the Crescent

llAlrh ahN iVtitpf ~ IN
2Dday closes the run of Hobart
in "A Thousand to One"
at the Crescent theatre. This pic
ture is one that is full of action
from start to finish. It's a picture
that both old and young can enjoy.
The also includes that Won
derful new picture. '"The Fight of
the Age" featuring Dempsey and
Carpenter. If you enjoy pictures,
don't miss this program.
The management of the Crescent
theatre announce that the star Of
fering of tomorrow's program will
be Franklin Farnum in The Strug-
Jgle."
( This picture gives the strenuous
young star full scope TO risk his neck
on countless occasions in order to
give his admirers n full measure of
thrills and heart jumps.
One of the leading characters OF
the picture is Pumpkins, the little
colored urchin who rides the plains
on a sassy donkey. Pumpkins has
a suit of real overseas khaki and a
tin hat. At all of the critical mo-
ments of the story this grotesque
little champion of the right shows
up and with his air shotgun does
havoc upon the neither extremities
of the villainous evil doors.
This picture is especially recon-,
mended to those who have tired o.
the usual run of screen offerings
which drag outraged women through
impossible suffering.
The program also includes Doug
las Fairbanks in The Mark of Tor
ro.'

After You Are Fifty

You can expect almost anything be-
cause your vitality is fast becoming used
up and as a rule one becomes over anxious
to lay aside money enough to care for
their old age, and during this nerve
breaking period, and worries, you are
liable to have a nervous breakdown, and
become a fit subject for kidney, liver, and
heart troubles.
When you find yourself approaching
or afflicted with these troubles. you can
build yourself up again by taking from
10 to 20 drops in little water of the old
and reliable remedy, SEVEN BARKS.
Don't wait until you are down sick, but
step into your nearest druggist and invest
a small sum for a bottle of SEVEN
BARKS and be prepared.
1t doesn't matter whether you are 20
or 80 if you find that your digestion or
gans resent what you eat, your heart pal
pilates on the slightest exertion, your
back aches after a days work, you need
good tonic kidney and liver regulator.
This you will find in SEVEN BARKS,
the Old-fashiOned root and herb remedy
that our parents and grandparents used
to keep their families rugged and well.
