In the Days of Our Forefathers

When America was young, the wise pioneer women learned to gather, in woods and fields, the remedies the Indians used. From tn, rafters of colonial houses hung great punches of dried roots and herbs. From these, in times of sickness, the busy mother brewed remedies for her family.
 From roots and herbs, Lydia E. Pinkham, a descendant of these sturdy pioneers. made her Vegetable Compound. For more than half a century this dependable medicine has been taken by women with very satisfactory results.
 If it has helped other women. why shouldn't it help you?

"NIARE NosTRUM" AT CAPITOL

Rex Ingram's production of Mare Nostrum" (Our Sea) for Metro Goldwyn, had it's first showing at the Capitol theater yesterday. This screen version of the famous Blasco 1banez story is another triumph for the youthful director who already has to his credit such. successes as "Scaramouche," "The Four Horse men of the Apocalypse" and "The Prisoner of Zenda."
 Mare Nostrum" is a powerful story of the sea at the time of the great world war. Ingram produced 1t on the original locations in Spain. France and Italy described by the author in his book. The result is delightful combination of a strong dramatic story and pictorial and his torical beauty such as only Ingram is capable of making.
 Alice Terry and Antonio Moreno enact, the leading roles and share honors in the success of the picture with Ingram and Ibanez. Miss Terry and Moreno have played many parts before the camera but nothing

have known Dr. Hall didn't love her. i He used 10 tell mother of their honeymoon trip, how he used to | pace the deck of the ocean liner
 alone in the night, wondering why 1 he had done this thing. l always understood that he had married her because some of his family had urged him to. I suppose they thought they had his own good in mind, be- cause Mrs. Hall had wealth and position, but why didn't they all realize that money and high social standing are as nothing compared with true love.
 How tangled were the threads of these unhappy lives, and all because few people didn't realize the true path of happiness. And now look al the tortures which others must un- dergo because of that.
 I must give up trying to under stand 1t all. 1 will welcome the day when this trial will be over and the public will forget so that people will not point to me as part of that aw- ful tragedy. I must find my, own way through life, and 1 must try to forget the handicap of the past. Yes terday I reacted. I don't think I would ever be able to bear it all if it weren't for the little halts which give me a chance to calm my tingling nerves. While court is not sitting I try to occupy myself with things as far from the trial as pos sible. But I suppose there is no get ting away from it until time blurs those bitter memories. Today the de- fense gathers speed. The issues are further confused and I find myself dragged deeper and deeper into the whirlpool of torturous doubts and wonderings.
