FLIVVER REAL, HERO IN
NEW WALLACE REID FILM
Little Car Makes Great Speed and
Wins Race in "Across the
Continent"

The small type of motor car, cores

props in "Across the Continent new
Paramount picture starring Wallace
Reid, is at the Bijou for the last time
time.
''This is the first time said Byron
Morgan, author of the story and seen
ario, that a small car of the popular
type has, been cast for a heroic role
in film. Ordinarily it is the big pow

drama for love and business.

it is a case of car racing against time

way to revival of the old racing
events, if mnufacturers heed the hint
given. 1t can be done and the picture
shows how.
"Wallace Reid didn't know much
about the type of car he had to drive

SULPHUR IS BEST
TO CLEAR Up UGLY,
BROKEN OUT SKIN

Any breaking out or, skin irritation
on face, neck or body is overcome quick
est by applying Mentho Sulphur, says a
noted skin specialist. Because of its
germ destroying properties, nothing has
ever been found to take the place of
this sulphur preparation that instantly
brings ease from the itching, burning
and irritation.
Mentho Sulphur heals eczema right
up, leaving the skin clear and smooth.
It seldom fails to relieve the torment
or Disagreement. A little jar of Rowles
Mentho- Sulphur may be obtained at
any drug store. It is used like cold
cream.

THE RACE THAT DOES FIT IN.

TEIE RACE THAT DOES FIT IN.
We envy the race that does ct in, -
The race that's staid and sure;
To them there is no battles din,
No fateful false allure;
They fill their niche and do their best
In the quiet of an even keel;
They make and keep and plod and
rest,
With never a wound to heal.
They miss the spice of vagrant chance
And sow and reap instead;
They 'scape the debt that follows the
dance.
Their past doesn't bury its dead.
They say, Here is the plain marked
way
I'll walk in joy and sorrow"
And so they pass LIES fruitful day.
With Heaven theirs the morrow.
They are the builders of things Sc
cure,
The founders of lasting treasures;
They are the gold that will endure,
We the dross of fitting measures.
For them there is the victors crown.
For us the gall and wormwood;
Theirs is the mettle that will not down
Ours that which never has stood.
We envy the race that does fit in,
To our so clear undoing;
Who play their part to kith and kin,
While we'rae tickle fortune wooing.
We ponder DER Gods purpose deep
And DER his plans mysterious,
While we our aimless courage keep
And you your ways more serious.

FINGERPRINT EXPERT AGAIN
CALLED IN ARBUCKLE TRIAL
Declares Marks on Door Were Made
by Defendant and Actress

San Francisco, Jan. 23.-(By "A. ~
il. o. Heinrich, finger print expert,
testified today in the second trial OF a
mnns,augliter charge against Roscoe T..
Arbuckle, TO examining the door OF AS
buckles room in the Hotel st. Francis
and finding on it finger prints alleging
TO be those Of Arbuckle and Miss Nir-
ginia Rape. The door itself was IN
trOduied. 49,
Heinrich compared the police hngcr
prints of Arbuckle aud the post-mortem
prints of Miss Rappe with those on the
hoor ant said all of the prints concerned
were made by the same hands. -,
Against IIeinrichS the defense Will
nut forward August Nollmer, Berkeley
police chief and expert in scientific
rriminology. and Adolph jewell, head
of the Identification Bureau of the San
Francisco Police Department. Their
contention is that the marks cannot be
definitely identified as the tingerprints
of Miss Rappe and Arbnckle. par
ticularly since in the case of the finger
print said to have been made by man
only minute portion of the complete
prints shows. ~
The testimony rs to the prints Will
probably close the States case.
