 Charles Ray in Crooked Straight" showing at the Empress tomorrow only, is another of this popular stars new series which is having a tre- mendous run outside at present.
 Charles Ray has been called the most natural actor on the screen" Whether you agree with that state ment or not, no one will dispute that as a portrayer of wholesome coun- try boy types he is without a su- perior This fact is strongly and em- phatically brought out in the con- stant nationwide demand for Mir. Rays pictures.

WOMEN VALUABLE TO
 DETECTIVE FORCE

LONDON, April 26 (by Associated Press) Conservative Scotland Yard is finding women of decided value on it's detective force, especially in fer, reting out the intricacies of certain sorts of crime. The talent of these feminine sleuths, 1t is said, is due largely because of their greater sue cess at practicing deception. And it has been found that they can keep a secret.
 Many of the women detectives cover assignments at social events where it is necessary for them to wear evening gowns and jewels and to display the social graces.
 Women detectives were employed first in London, but now their activi ties have extended to the provinces.

AIR MAN SAYS
 BATTLESHIPS
 ARE OBSOLETE

LONDON, April 26 (by Associated
 Press). - Admiral Sir Percy Scott, commander of the aerial defense of London in the World war, has no use
 ish navy would be better off it it spent the G40,000,000 intended for
 battleship construction in research | and providing newer weapons of warfare
 The late war;" Sir Percy said, showed that the only safe policy as regards battleships was to stow them away as far as possible from the | enemy. If we go to war now with France l do not think our battle ships will be safe unless we construct a harbor to contain them in Iceland. Personally" continued Sir Percy, | in newspaper interview, 'I am fully ] in accord with Rear Admiral Adair 1 when he said that we ought not to spend one penny on battleships, but whatever money we may have to spare should be laid out on research
 work. Rear-Admiral Adair told the house of commons that if we built new battleships we should also have to provide new bases at great cost
 at Halifax, Bermuda and Jamaica.
 on the west coast of Canada, in New | Guinea, and at Singapore. I say this
 nation, with the income tax at six shillings in the pound cannot af- | ford this huge expenditure when mo- body can tell me what we are going l to do with these battleships when
 we get them.
 "In the first few hours of the ! next war Plymouth, Dover and even London, may be reduced to ashes
 unless we are prepared with an ade- quate counter to the fleets of air planes that would attack us. Ii seems to me, therefore, nothing but plain | common sense that we should spend, what only we can spare, not on bat 1 tleships that are mo dd good as the midshipman said, but ill providing the very best we can buy of the newer ! weapons that will count in the war of the future"
 Speaking of the latest developments in death dealing instruments, Sir
 Percy explained the principles of the new Davis gun, which fires from both ends and with which he said all American airplanes were to be armed.
 It would be possible for an airplane to carry 12-inch gun and fire at bat tleships from 10000 feet up. Battle
 ships could have no protection against
 such weapons.
 Speaking of the progress that had been made in planning aerial at tacks on warships, Sir Percy Scott
 said, in an interview in the Evening Standard. Tt is no secret noW-
 every man in the service knows it that had the war lasted another fort
 night, we would probably, by means
 of an aerial attack, have sunk all the
 German ships in the Kiel canal"

HOT, DIZZY FEELING.
Atlanta Lady's Uncomfortable and Annoying Condition Relieved,
 She Says, by Cardui.

Atlanta, Ga.-Miss Alice Frances Young, of 28 East Alexander Street, this city, says: After entering wo- manhood, l suffered so much with womanly weakness. My back ached. I would have, at certain times, hot feeling that seemed to go to my head. Even my shoulders would hurt, and 1t made me very dizzy and uncomfort- able. When the blood would flow to my head-I suppose that was what it was-I would faint and feel so weak.
 'I couldn't do my work. had a good position, and this was surely annoying as well as embarrassing. I would usually have to go home and go to bed I certainly suffered greatly.
 T heard of Cardui, and my mother bought it for me. It was the first and only medicine that ever did me any good for this trouble"
 Dizziness, headache, sideache, back ache, tired-out feeling and other dis agreeable symptoms are often signs of womanly troubles. Thousands of wo- men who formerly suffered from these and similar ailments have found Car. dui very valuable remedy.
 Cardui is composed only of pure, vegetable ingredients which have long been recognized as of medicinal value in the treatment of many diseases and disorders peculiar to women.
