when the mark suddenly collapsed.
Against this figure, however, Herr
Urbig sets up a debt OF several hun

Herr Urbig does not believe tina the

governments have tried to regulate
the flow OF financial paper from one
country into another. but have been
bafled by the problem.

Here are two disappointed immi-
grants to our shores who hold no
grievance against US because Of
threatened deportation. Mr.. and Mrs.
Filippo Quattrocchi landed on Ellis
Island from Italy recently. Because
the husbands health is not good, de-
p%ortation was ordered. During IN ap-
peal from this edict. they have re-
manned at the immigration station
there on the Island. and the other day
when a daughter was born to them
they named her Ellis. That seems like
full-hearted appreciation for half-heart
ed hospitality. l rather hope the gov
eminent win decide to stretch 3 point
and let them stay here.

increases in skill. Her resource and
variety are multiplied in every role she
acts. No talent on our stage to-day is
superior. If she occasionally disappoints
by an apparent lack of taste or elegance

be found on examination to lie in her

SHE DARKENED HER
GRAY HAIR
Tells How She Did 1t With a Home.
Made Remedy.

Mrs. +. H. Boots, a well-known
resident of Buchanan County, Ia,
who darkened her gray hair, made
the following statement:
"Any lady or gentleman can
darken their. gray or faded hair,
and make it soft and glossy with
this simple remedy, which they can
mix at home. To half pint of
water add l ounce of bay rum, one
small box of Barbo Compound and
a ounce of glycerine. These in
gradients can be purchased at any
drug store at very little cost. Apply
to the hair every other day until the
gray hair is darkened sufficiently.
1t does not color the scalp, is not
greasy and does not rub off. 1t will
make a gray-haired person look
twenty years younger"

Lonely Trail' With
BeauvaiS Full of
WoodcraH Tricks
Indian Guide i'm Own Picture
Acts Without Much Con-
sciOus HerOicS.

Despite advance announcements which
intensified public interest in the film
1.-The Lonely Trail" the first photoplay
production of Fred X. Beauvais, the In
dian guide who has achieved a certain
kind Of notoriety of late, was not held up
In any way at its first showing at the
Forty-fourth Street Theater yesterday.
perhaps because the powers that be real
lied how perfectly harmless 1t is. AS a
matter of fact IL was valuable chiefly
as a guide to campers. the only draw
back being that II was exhibited at the
wrong time Of year. II is really sum
mer show.
Beauvais seemed to have put into it
everything he knew, almost. One learned
how to shoot hats of fat boys heads In
the wild woods how to bandage cut
hands quickly, how to. run over rough
rocks. how to ashland kiss simultan-
eously-and how to revive girl who
had tainted in the wild woods by squeez-
ing on her face water dipped with n
sponge from what is commonly called a
"growler." II was full OF nice little
tricks of woodcraft like that.
In the midst OF these enthralling bits
OF forest lore something like story oc-
casionally would interrupt the interest.
There were some details about an ad-
venturer who had earlier betrayed the
sister OF the handsome guide into whose
camp he strayed and who sought TO use
a millionaire's daughter az an instru-
mont to outwit him. But Just when the
attention was stimulated trife the
guide repeatedly would forgive the man
against whom he had sought vengeance
and the story would get lost in the
woods.
The millionaire while roughing il wore
hats that looked like dishrags. His
daughter had bobbed hair and frcckles.
perhaps with some idea OF enhancing
her looks. Beauvais himself contributed
10 the pleasing ensemble by having a
neat. close trimmed haircut such as can
be obtained in any Canadian forest. The
girl went back TO civilization leaving
him a note that II he called she would
return and they would climb and climb
presumably till they got Charleyhorse.
But apparently after one look at her
face he decided to climb the trail-alone.
Besides, that left the way open for a
sequel.
Beauvais acted without much con-
scious heroics. but the general naivete
of the film was carried out by the sub
titles, which we're punctuated about as
much as the average telegram and were
just as dramatic.
