his bed.
The aged military strategist is de-

the doctors he realized the serious
ness of the double malady OF heart
weakness and kidney trouble, he re-
fused to become alarmed.
The marshal is obeying the doc

his own symptoms so that he would
be familiar with them.

such widely varying types

the vital appeal
Of smooth lovely skin
r n D
9 out of 10 screen stars
use Lnr Toilet Soap

AN exquisite velvety skin is any girls great
n est charm, and for screen star it is all
important, leading motion picture direc-
tors say.
Screen history has proved that the cleverest
makeup can't initiate beautiful skin under the
glare of the closeup. | don't know single girl
without really lovely skin who has won enough
of the public to become a star" says William
Beaudine, director for Fox Films.
A star must always guard the perfection of
her skin-the glaring lights of the closeup
reveal the slightest unevenness," Merna Ken
nedy explains.
The next time you see her in closeup notice
how fine and smooth Lux Toilet Soap keeps her
skin or Clara Bows, Bebe Daniels, May Nc
Avoy's When next you see your favorite screen
star, whoever she is, remember that nine out
of every Ten lovely stars use Lux Toilet Soap
for smooth skin.
Indeed, all the great film studios, following
these stars example, have made Lux Toilet
Soap the official soap in all dressing rooms.
The exacting screen stars like the fact that
this delicately fragrant white soap is made by
the French method s It gives my skin that
beautiful smoothness thought only fine French
soap could give, Renee Adoree says. You, too,
will like its caressing ather that leaves your skin
so satin smooth. Use it for the bath, too, and
the shampoo, as the screen stars do.

city jail here on an assault to mur-
der charge, as the result Of a shoot
