irimth's biggest" says Manager
Aoyeridge Of the Capitol. TT is the
most brilliant spectacle ever pro-
|duced in America, and that leaves
nothing to be said. Based on the
stirring melOdrama, The Two Or
pnans, with a record of half CEN
tury's success, the Griffith film utfI-
ICES every bit of dramatic action in
t and displays it against a Titanic
background of action and atmos-
pnere OF the period-the French
revolution. They have hailed Or
pnans OF the Storm as a moving
story, swift in action, wonderful in
historic interest, and filed with
mastery sense of suspense and
climax. From my inspection of the
picture / more than share the en-
thusiasm OF the critics.
Not only has a great spectacular
undertaking been accomplished in
the new Griffith film, but it is play

time since the Hearts of the

Other players are the sensation

Monte Blue, Frank Losee. Sheldon
Lewis, Sidney Herbert, Creighton
Hale and Kate Bruce. The big
feature of the production, besides
the heart interest, is the tremen-
dous scope Of the Reign of Terror
portrayal. The last half of the film
is described as a soul-stirring
whfrl of acute suspense.
Steps are being taken immedi-
ately to prepare for an adequate
presentation of Orphans of the

engagement is to be made a gala
event in local amusement circles.

The Best Cough Syrup
is Homemade.
Here's an easy way to save So, and
yet have the best cough remedy
you ever tried

You've probably heard of this we'll
known plan of making cough syrup
at home. But have you ever used
it7 Thousands of families, the world
over, feel that they could hardly keep
house without it. It's simple and
cheap, but the way it takes hold of a
cough will soon earn it a permanent
place in your home.
Into a pint bottle, pour 21s ounces
of Pinex; then add plain graduated
sugar syrup to fill up the pint. Or,
if desired, use clarified molasses,
honey, or corn syrup, instead OF sugar
syrup. Either way, it tastes good,
never spoils, and gives you full pint
of better cough remedy than you
could buy ready made for three times
its cost.
It is really wonderful how quickly
this home made remedy conquers a
cough-usually in "a hours or less.
1t seems to penetrate through every
air passage, loosens a dry, hoarse or
tight cough, lifts the phlegm, heals
the membranes, and gives almost i'm
mediate relief Splendid for throat
tickle, hoarseness, Group, bronchitis
and bronchial asthma.
Pinex is highly concentrated COM
pound of genuine Norway pine ex-
tract, and has been used for genera
tions for throat and chest ailments.
To avoid disappointment ask your
druggist for '21h ounces of Pinex"
with directions, and don't accept any
thing else. Guaranteed to give abso-
lutte satisfaction OF money refunded.
