ROW TO HOLD HIM?
LOVE WILL FIND A WAY


A question Of unusual interest tt
women has arisen in Hollywood.
Is "falnting" ostensibly one
womeYss greatest weapons use1
more often in the defense or in o.
tense?
A discussion took place in the fir.
city as to whether women pretend
more often to demand the atten
ton OF men or to rid Themselves Fl
suca attentions. AZ first only twp
peo,.ie, Agnes Ayres and Jack Hot.
were engaged in the argument, bn.
when it was interrupted by William
de Mile of camera wor, Nita
Nadia, Rod La ROGUE, Julia Faye
Theodore Kosloff and Robert Edo
son were on one side or the other,
The discussion arose while
scene in "Don't Cali 1t Love- was
being photographed. This scene
shows Agnes Ayres fainting when
her lover leaves her As chapter
from Julian Streets novel, Rita
Coventry" from which the picture
was adapted, it is said to have ac-
tually happened. Discussion arose as
to whether Miss Ayres was suppo5-
ed to faint because she thought she
had lost her lover, or because she
thought he might return to her
when he saw her faint.
Don't Call 1t, Love" is being
shown at the Rylander today and

Connie Mack Developer
of Many Star PLAYERS

Connie Mack, famous manager of
the Philadelphia Athletics, certainly
has been an angel to every other club
in the American league except Wash
ington and Detroit.
Mack Is perhaps the only major
league manager who can be regarded
as a real developer of players. He
grabs them when they are young and
models them into big leaguers.
During the dark days after 1914.
when Mack disposed of most of the
stars of his great club, Shibe park in
Philadelphia literally became a base
ball incubator. In an effort to build
up another great team Mack didn't
overlook bet trying out every player
recommended.
Here is just a partial list of players
who got their start under Mack and
then shifted to other clubs either
through sale or trade:
Cleveland - Jameson, Coveleskie.
Burns and Larry Gardner.
New York-Schang, Bush, Shawkey,
Witt, Dugan and Pennock.
Chicago-Collins, Strunk.
BOston-O'Neill, Picinich.
ST. Louis-Danforth.

Vegetable Compound and started to
pick up as soon as began taking it.
Then took it again before my first

Mrs. JANE CRosSAN, 612 Pine St,
Wilmington, Delaware.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound has helped many other
women just as it has helped Mrs.
Dakan, Mrs. Meyn and Mrs. Crossan.
Consider the statements of these
women. They give you the benefit
OF their actual experience with the
Vegetable Compound.
A nationwide canvass of women
purchasers of the Vegetable Com
pound reports that SO out of every 100
have been benefited by IT'S use.
This is a remarkable record and
proves the dependabilityof the medi-
cine for the relief of the troubles
women often have.
For weak and rundown conditions
30 common after childbirth it is well
adapted. 1t strengthens and tones
up the system and restores normal
health.
The Vegetable Compound contains
no harmful drugs or narcotics and
can be taken in safety by the nurs-
ing mother. For sale by druggists
everywhere.

Billie Brownie should come to visit

He tells others about my children

and of what they like.
'I will ask him, Umbrella Tree"
The Umbrella Tree thanked Mother
Nature and waited anxiously to see if
Billie Brownie could come.
When he received his invitation he
looked at the Suns Rays to see what
time it waS-which was Billie
Brownies way of telling the time, and
he said
Yes, I've time, and I'd be delighted
to call on the Umbrella Tree"
So to the Umbrella Tree came Billie
Brownie.
''You see," the Umbrella Tree ex-

that you should come and call on me

Swamp-R Root a Fine Medicine

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in healthy con-
dition they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, irritable
and may be respondent; it makes any
one so.
But hundreds of women claim that DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring health
to the kidneys, proved to be just the
remedy needed to overcome such condi-
tions.
Many send for sample bottle to see
what Swamp Root, the great kidney, liver
and bladder medicine will do for them
By enclosing ten cents to DIR. Kilmer &
Co., Binghamton, N. Y, you may receive
sample size bottle by parcel post. You
