YOUR HEALTH
BY DIR. CLIFFORD C. ROBINSON
CONFINEMENT

Keeping away from fret and
worry is a great aid to health and
physical condition. The person
who frets and fumes over imaginary
Ills from imaginary causes will not
have the buoyancy of spirit that
should walk with him every day on
the way to health and long life.
You may become a nervous wreck
through causes that. are easy to
diagnose but difficult of treatment by
any physician. Mental disturbances,
such as fret, worry and pretense
which bring on nervousness, have a
direct and serious effect on digestion
and health. They go hand in hand
with Indigestion, stomach disorders,
headache, sluggish liver, and diabe-
ties. In fact, n may speak of worry
as a short circuit of nerves to the
brain. 1t burns out the vital tissues
and-gives no return for energy vast
ed.
This worry and nervous fldgeting
about fear, envy, excitement or hate
must be put aside by your own
power Of self-control and determina-
ton. To bask in the sunshine of con-
tentment is a mental and physical
condition well worth while and one
hat all should try to cultivate.
The trouble seems to lie in making
up your mind. When you have done
this in regard to any task that seems
to have been set for you, you can lie
down to sleep and pleasant dreams.
as the sailor does even in a storm.
The mind cure is all right in one
sense at least. If more people would
train their minds to endure the tasks
set for them success would be theirs
without worry or envy.
India today are proud of their emer-
aids. 1t is believed that many OF
them were bought from Spain: q
part of the loot of Pizarro's conquest
of Peru. The ancient Peruvians
must have obtained them In trade
from the Chibzcha Indians of Colon
bia many hundreds of years ago."

Nationwide advertising cam

Wishes Tully Luck.

From Sir Gerald Du Maurier. son of
the famous novelist and himself a
prominent London actor and proprie-
tor of Wyndham's Theater. Richard
Walton Tully has received the fol-
lowing cablegram:
My warmest good wishes to your
self, the director and the entire cast
of 'Trilby" for the success of my
fathers novel on the screen I am
very grateful to you personally for
your splendid enthusiasm. With kind
est regards.
GERALD DU MAURIER."
Tully says he feels that no small
part of the credit will go to the
younger Du Maurier, whose whole
hearted cooperation has been most
valuable, especially during the months
of research work conducted by Tully
during his recent trip abroad. Not
only has Gerald Du Maurier approved
of the selection of the young French
actress, Andree Lafayette, for the
tftlerole, but also of the other lead
ing members of the cast, most of
whose work was known to him, and
of the continuity which Tully has
fashioned from his fathers novel.

COSMOS-John Gilbert in "The

A unique touch is given what Is
commonly called the crook play IN
the new William Fox production,

ing Billie Dove as his chief support,
and which will be shown at the Cos
mos Theater this week, together with

To carry out his design of stealing
a valuable collection of jewels, Jaca
Javalie. a mere youth, assumes the
character Of a pious. gentle and high
principled young man, almost fanati-
cal in his desire to do good. By this
means he gains access to the home Of
their owner, man whose family is
torn with dissension. and his inf1u-
ence works a marvellous change, even
refo rming a girl crook who also was
in pursuit of the jewels and who had
been his former partner in crime. He
secures the combination to the safe
in which the Jewels are deposited
and, after three years of planning
and the most careful work, just as
something happens to give not only
the story but his own destiny a
miraculous twist-he finds himself
conquered by the virtue which he had
assumed.
1t is a most unusual story and 1t is
told upon the screen with all the art
Of stage settings and photography by
a cast which includes. In addition to
