Folklore Of the Hair

A heavy head Of hair indicates few
II any virtues, according to folklore
gathered from many parts of the
world. The Turks claim that women
with short intellect have long hair
The Aibanians say with finality, Long
hair, little brains" Other contrib
utors say that much hair indicates un-
goyernable temper and inclination to
melancholy. "lf a girl has a great
deal OF hair she will marry poverty
while the girl with little hair Will mar
ry rich" according TO another source.
Curly hair Is sign OF scold, and
also early wldowhood If the hair falls
Ia little curls at the back of the neck.
A long and peaceful life is promised
the owner of hair that grows low on
the forehead and retreats up the side
Of the head over the temples. Chest
nut or brown hair denotes fairness In
dealings, generosity, absence OF de
ceit, but unhappiness Ia domestic life.

say The recent thrift campaign" was
bad for business" and the people

Some Of those forward looking saviors
who were beating the tom toms for
thrift have been induced into the

movement related to thrift of money,
thrift of time and thrift of life" All

ph0todrama Sets Pace for Regal
Magnificance and GOrgeousness Of
Scenes and Dramatic Effects.

The W. X. Zegfed production,
'"rhe Black Panther's Cub" starring
Florence Reed, which is based on
Swinburne's immortal poem, "Faus-
tine" is heralded as production
which cost to produce more than
$250,000. 1t is one of the first of the
really big productions to be made in
the East, and is accepted as concrete
proof of the recent statement by sew
eral big producers that it is no longer
necessary to go to California to make
good pictures.
In regard to the scenes of Partisan
night life, which were made in sets
constructed in the studios, none other
than Director Emile Chautard, who is
French, is needed as an authority that
they are correct in every possible de-
tail.
'The Black Panther's Cub" sets the
pace for regal magnificance and gor-
geousness in photodramatic produc-
tion. No expense was spared in the
construction of the scenes. Miss Reed
herself spent small fortune on
gowns and the east which Mr.. Zieg-
field assembled to support Miss Reed
in itself represents another fortune.
Norman Trevor, who is now starring
in Enter Madame" at the Fulton
theatre in New York, is the principal
supporting member of the east, while
others of scarcely less prominence are
Tyrone Power Earle FoXe, Henry
Stephenson, William Roselle, Mile.
Dazie and Paula Shay
"The Black Panther's Cub" is a
scintillating, fascinating and enthral-
ling story of night life in Paris, and
the quieter and more refined exist
ence of the English countryside. In
the production Miss Reed plays
dual role with such Overwhelming real
ism that it seems almost impossible.
The added attraction will be Harry

thrilling comedy, "The Sawmill"

have been on for the past week, and
up TO Thursday seven Of the foundres
and the molders have reached agree

is satisfactory to both sides. The
agreements are of such nature it is
believed that all foundries in the city
will accept them within the next week,
with the possible exception of the two
shops where strikes are on at present.
And it is thought that even in these
shops there is a good chance that the
differences existing at present may be
adjusted, at least this is true of one
of the shops.

Thursday and Friday-AIice Calhoun
in The Little Minister

THE Little Minister" one Of The
most famous. stories ever written, has
been made into Il special production
by Vitagraph with Alice Calhoun in
the stellar role 1t will be shown at
the Rialto theatre ON Thursday and
Friday.
Vltagraph has owned the rights to
James NJ. Barrie's far famed story for
years and believes that there is no
time more propitious for making q
film super-feature out of it. Alice
Calhoun is regarded as perfect type
for the role created Of Lady Babble
which has become an established char
acter of fiction She has for years
yearned for just such role as that
IN Barrie's Incompatible creation.
A prominent trade authority recent
ly placed the probable value of not
less than half a million dollars on the
rights to produce this story in pro-
duction in keeping with its ineffable
charm. And in making the film Vita
graph has endeavored to maintain all
of the simplicity and beauty of the
original story which is so brilliant in
the pages of dramatic literature. Only
a Barrie, it is said, could have created
dramatic document such as this.
The added attraction will be Hall
room comedy, entitled "Beechnuts."

Saturday-Big Dramatic punch" in
Hammerstein Play

'Remorseless Love-" in which Elaine
Hammerstein will be presented at the
Rialto theatre for one day engage
ment, is a somewhat different type
of story from any in which the popu-
lar screen star has yet appeared. The
scenes are laid in the Kentucky noun
tains and the action has to do with
dramatic incidents growing out of one
of the ages-old feuds for which that
section is celebrated.
There are no bathrooms or evening
gowns. Miss Hammerstein appears
as young girl whom a little educa-
tion has failed to change from the
prototype of her ancestors, whose loves
and hates were as strong and wild as
the winds that rocked their mountain
trees.
The big "punch" arrives in a court
room scene during which the girl,
threatened with violent death If she
dares to tell the truth, braves every
thing for the man she loves.
