No More Gray Hair
Says Science q
Wonderful Clean,
Colorless Liquid
Restores
Original Color
Results in a Week

Science again has scored
triumph in the discovery of a
very remarkable liquid known as
Kolor- Bak. Ii you are gray, just
apply this liquid to the hair and
scalp and your hair will soon take
on the actual color it had in the
past. Not a trace of grayness
will remain.
Kolor. Bak comes in the form OF
a clear and colorless liquid. con-
tanning properties which quickly
restore the lost color to the hair
and give it renewed vigor. And
note that the one preparation is
for all colors of hair. No special
solution required for each color
no samples of hair required.
You will find also that with
Kolor. Bak the hair has the same
shade throughout, 1t does not
appear streaked, faded or dyed. Z"
Every scientist, every physician,
knows that gray hair is hair that
has ceased to receive its normal
supply of coloring matter or pig
ment from certain tiny cells
(called follicles or papillm) in the
scalp. because these cells have
become inactive from illness,
shock of some kind, scalp disease,
dandruf, infection, neglect of the
hair, or lack of circulation, etc.
But no matter what the cause of
the grayness, it is simply amazing
to see how it disappears when
Kolor-Bak is used. 1t is a real
substitute for the natural pig
mentation.

George Arliss at Parsons :.
 Tn "The Green Goddess

The sinister, six armed Hindu delty who silent, ominously casts the spel of evil over the scenes of "The Greer Goddess" which George Arliss acts al Parsons theater the three days begin ming Thursday, April 26, is no mere flgment of William Archer's brain The author. it is true, adapted her to the needs of his drama, but in her appearance and her mystic powers she is essentially the same hideous goddess that travellers in India have seen or heard of.
 Squat of figure, evil of face, just such a goddess Archer says is Wor- shipped by one of the tribes of the mountainous Nepaul. It is doubtful if human sacrifices are made to ttis particular goddess, as suggested in the play, but travellers in Central Asia still report rumors of human sacrifices made by the savage, half Tartar, half Tibetan tribes of the in- terior.
 There is a six-armed goddess in a great cave of living rock on the Island of Elephants, seven miles from Bombay. in the Adriatic. She is "shiva." Her temple was cut in the rock and is 90 feet square. She has, unlike Archer's goddess, three heads. representing the Creator. the Preserv- CT and the Destroyer. Thus it is in- teresting that the race which wor- ships her attributes both good and evil qualities to their divinity, just as in The Green Goddess" the Ruk- hians recognize the good and evil in their deity,

Letter From John Alden Prescott to
 Sydney Carton.

Dear Syd:
 I hope you can understand, old chap, what you have done. Or per kaps l hope I can make you under stand what my guilty conscience has done, as you would put it.
 I do not think Leslie will ever for give me. And it all came about that letter you wrote me and which re- ceived this morning.
 There was nothing in it but the var ious commonplaces, nothing that any one might not read, but you see, old fellow, I could not be sure that you would not say something in the letter about the one I wrote you in which I told you of my interview with Les lies father.
 Leslie had not known that I had even written to you and when she in the innocence of her heart thinking that the letter was in an- swer to the postal she sent you, tore open the envelope, before l thought I snatched it from her. Then, or course, had to play out the game as I had dealt the cards.
 I will not deny, Syd, that l was angry, very angry. l don't think It is any woman's business, whether she is your wife, your mother, your stem ographer or your mistress, to open your personal mail.
 I expect I told this to Leslie in very cruel manner for she ended by demanding the letter from me that she might read its contents.
 If I had had any sense. knowing you had made no illusion whatever to anything compromising, l would have given it to her then and there. but I was too furious. The matter ended by me dramatically striking match and trying to burn the d---

MANY ALREADY HAVE TAKEN
 LOGES FOR CHORAL CONCERT
Choral Society's Patrons Eagerly Awaiting Singing of
 Elijah On May

That New Britain concert goers are eager to hear Elijah" which is to be given by the New Britain Choral so- ciety on Monday evening, May z at Foxs theater is evidenced by the un- precedented demand for tickets and large increase in associate member- ships.
 Many are the reasons for these conditions. In the first place. the Oratorio of Mendelssohn is undoubt- edly the greatest ever written and in dramatic effect cannot be surpassed. In fact. Elijah could be very effec- lively staged as an opera.
 Secondly, the title role is to be sung by the greatest baritone before the public-Arthur Middleton-who in this work has a wonderful oppor- tunity to display his glorious voice and artistic delivery, for the part of the prophet Elijah is the greatest baritone role ever written. and one that can be essayed only by great artist.
 The third reason ia the reengage- ment of the Boston Festival orchestra which made such favorable im- pression last year and can be relied on to furnish finished accompani- ment to the chorus and solos. An op- portunity for the orchestra is afford- ed in the overture a fine bit of or chestral writing and one that will be much enjoyed.
 Last but by no means least is the New Britain Choral society itself which can always be relied upon to give finished performance and it is predicted that Elijah" will be it's crowning achievement.
