PROF MILLER
SPEAKS ON
S. A.

Frequently / have been asked,
began Howard Miller, leading man
with the National Theater Payers.
If do not think this vague thing
called sex appeal is o0errated,
and what it has to do with max
ing successful actress or actor.
And just as frequently / reply
to the first and say it Is not
overrated, and. secondly. that it
has much. very. much TO do with
theatrical triumph
why is IT, for instance, some
actresses OF ability and intelh-
pence fail to win the favor of the
general playing public, despite the
fact that the dramatic critics tWho,
il appears. are not so responsive
to- sex appeal as the less special
lied playgoersl have doomed their
merits. And why is it that other
actresses who seem to he entirely
lacking in brains and ability
cause crowds to assemble in every
theater where they act? The
answer is the lack of in one case
and the presence Of in the other
Of sex appeal
II could, IL i were ungallaHt
enough to do so, name half a
dozen actresses. each of whom
has been highly and repeatedly
praised by the critics, but are in
capable of capturing the affec-<
tions of the public. And could
name actresses, but won't. whose
work has been continuously de-
precated and damned by the
critics. and yet they are extraor-
dinarily popular.
1.-The first group is composed, un-
deniabIy. of clever women who
thoroughly understand their work
and give fine performances OF
nearly every part they play. The
second group is undeniably com
posed OF women. some OF whom
are so stupid they wouldn't come
in out of the rain: they cannot
act. they cannot sing, they can
not dance. there seems to be
nothing on earth that they can do
we'll Nevertheless. the first
group fails to draw the public,
while the second can fill the
theater.
The explanation is sex appeal
The one group has it. the other
group has not. And that. let me
assure you, goes for actors as
we'll as actresses.

and provided. further, that the
young lady kept her distance.
Five minutes after the party
arrived at the dining room, things
begin to happen. Newspaper
folks. also guests, reported the
second ex.wife expressed a very
frank opinion Of Miss Roberts.
The young lady took up the gage
of tattle promptly. Cummings
sought to maintain peace, but

/ heard an interesting tale
about the origin of the stage
play from which "Street Angel"
the much discussed movie, has
been made. AS to its truth l
am assured that no less than
Michael Arlen and Edward
Knoblock, continental play
wrights, sponsor it's authenticity.
1t is that Monckton Hoffe,
supposed author of Lady Chris
talinda," from which Street
Angel" was adapted, is really
only pseudo-playwright, the
dramas which bear his name
being in fact written by an
author doing a life term in
durance vile.
The confederation H. a .rela-
tive of Monckton Hoffe and
through him his pen product
reaches the public. Credence is
lent to the story by the fact
that Monckton Hoffe in the d.
recting of Lady Christalinda"
when presented in England,
seemed quite incapable of MAX
ing even slight changes in the
script. Invariably it was his
custom to take the manuscript
and return with it several days
later containing the desired re-
vision.
Lady Christalinda" was first
presented in America here IN
Washington. 1t was at the de-
parted Shubert-Garrick and Fay
BANTER starred in the role made
famous on the screen by Janet
Gaynor. Ny recollection OF the
first night is of delightful
little play but New York re-
fused to accept it and it folded
up and is recorded in dramatic
history as flop.

"Loves Of an Actress" is an
entertaining picture and 1T IS
not altogether Pola's fault that It
never achieved greatness. me
story is of a famous Partisan
actress who carried her artificial
love scenes from the Coincide
Francois into real life. Her
heart twitterings are apparently
satisfied with the adulation and
constant attentions showered
upon great artist by many
suitors. When she is finally
consumed by real affection the
story has her forfeit happiness
and a life of domesticity rather
than sacrifice the diplomatic
career of her beloved. A noble
enough theory, but empty and
unconvincing as depicted in this
screen drama.
Pola has all the little tricks
of the experienced actre~s and
the finesse to carry on nicely.
The camera has not been as kind
to her as in Three Sinners.
or maybe it was the attractive
white wig of the earlier picture
which showed her off SO effec-
lively.
To contrast the PoIa of today
with the vivid actress at her
greatest is merely to note the

Old Folks Say Doctor
Caldwell was Right

The basis of treating sickness has
not changed since DR.. Caldwell left
Medical College in 1875. nor since
he placed on the market the laxa-
tive prescription he had used in his
prictice, known to druggists and the
public as DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
PepSin.
Then. the treatment of constipa-
ton, biliouSnesS, headaches, mental
depression, indigestion, sour stom-
ach and other indispositions that
result from constipation was entire
ly by means of simple vegetable lax
atives, herbs and roots. These are
still the basis of DR.. Caldwell's Sy-
rup PepSin, which is a combination
of SIENNA and other mild laxative
herbs, with pepsin.
The simpler the remedy for con-
stipation, the safer for the child and
for you, and the better for the gen.
eral health of all. And as you can
get results in a mild and safe way
by using DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin, why take chances with streng
drugs?
A bottle of DR.. Caldwells Syrup
Pepsin will last a family several
months, and all can use it. 1t is
good for the baby because pleasant
to the taste, gentle in action, and
free from narcotics. In proper dose,
given in the directions, is equally
effective at all ages. Elderly people
will find it especially ideal. All drug
stores have the generous bottles.
We would be glad to have you
prove at our expense how much DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin can mean
to you and yours. Just write your
name and address in the special
coupon you see at the end of this
