when WE
STOP GREASY
INDIGESTION We
FEEL JUST fine

Our stomach can't digest grease. Neither
can our bowels. Only our pancreatic juice,
working with our bile juice, can digest
grease.
When we get bad taste, headache and
that nasty grouchy feeling which comes
from greasy indigestion, take Carter's
Little Liver Pill before each meal and l
after.
Carter's Little Liver Pills bring large
flow of our pancreatic juice and bile juice
into our bowels. The large flow of these
juices digests the grease we have eaten.
Then we burst into life and into our work
like q joyous slSyrocket.
But if you want this glorious relief from
greasy Indigestion, ask your druggist for
Carter's Little Liver Pills by name and
stubbornly refuse to buy anything else. 25c.

BLACKFRIARS EFFECTIVE
IN COMEDY VENTURE
Fast Nonsense of "The Milky
Way Ably Handled by
Cast of Guild.

DEPARTING from its accustomed
field Of stage activity, the Black
friars Guild presented a properly
hilarious version of THE Milky Way
Lynn Root-Harry Klork farce, last
evening in st. Paul's Auditorium
While this dependable group has
established its reputation through
impressive treatments of religious
dramas, the venture onto the lighter
side represented one of the most
meritorious efforts produced to date.
Each player contributed superb han
ding of his particular slice OF the
rapid-fire nonsense, which combined
with the meticulous direction of Denis
Council to total briskly paced pro-
duction in which every line was made
to count.
Julian Zier drew the role of Bur-
leigh Sullivan, milkman turned
pug" and executed a plausible char
acterization of the confident battler
once hmned in celluloid by Harold
Lloyd. The perpetrator Of histrionic
larceny, however. was Henry Quirk,
as Spider" excitable sparring part
ner. Quirk evoked unrestrained out
bursts from the audience on every
appearance-he knew his type and
played it with zest. The story of
ring fame through victories against
a succession of ''set-ups" and cham
pionship won with an accidental blow
was meant to be very amusing
Messrs. Zier and Quirk did much
toward fulfilling the objective.
Robert Dillon was called upon to
emit vast amount Of verbiage in the
role Of "Gabby" Sloan, live-wire man.

isfying portrayals Likewise the

erts, Charles Clarity and Leo Brady.

evening. Curtain at 8:30.-C. A. M.

RIALT0'S DOUBLE BILL

"Congress Dances" and death
Takes a Holiday Contrast
of Themes.

of Themes.
THE Rialto Theater, with a Gus.
mary fair for arranging some
thing close to the bizarre in the COM
bination of titles on its double bills,
this week present Congress Dances
and Death Takes a Holiday"
There's much to be said in favor
OF both cinemas. Congress Dances,
for instance, may not come up to
snuff when it's compared with some
Of the better Hollywood musicals,
but there's no one who can say
this whimsical romance laid in the
Vienna of the days of Napoleon is
not a lightly pleasant and enjoyable
piece. Its spirit is bright and gay
and its music is, for the most part, as
tuneful as you could desire.
Also Congress Dances" has Lillian
Harvey and that's enough to recon-
mend any film, especially when it's
only half of the program.
The other half is the famed and
fantastic piece translated from the
Italian, dealing with the adventures
of lad named Death when he took
few days off and came down to
earth to try to find out why people
were so frightened of him. This was
one of the good plays, you remember,
which emerged still good as motion
picture.
1t was played well by Fredric March
(who was assigned the difficult task
Of portraying Death), Evelyn Venable,
Sir Guy Standing, Helen Wesley and
q number of others. It's still good
. few years later. H. M.

O'Neill's Close-to-Life Theme Re-

turns, Affording Chance to
Those Who Missed It.
WHEN Mr.. Eugene o'Neiu wrote
a play called "Ah, Wilderness!'
he had something, as the boys say
And when the play was made into a
motion picture Hollywood had some
thing. So now when the Little
Theater revives "Ah, Wilderness
(when it's still young enough that it
really doesn't need a lot of revivifica-
tom the Little has something-some-
thing worth seeing.
For "Ah, Wilderness!" is the Gin
ema in one Of its pleasantest and
worthiest manifestations-a motion
picture which is so close to life itself
that you can't look upon it without
feeling some twinge of happy re-
membrance for some experience of
the past.
Mr.. ONeill, Of course, wrote his
play to get across homelike and
natural feeling and the lads out in
Hollywood were more successful than
usual in getting across that same true
to-life atmosphere. To aid them in
the task Of bringing the stage drama
to the screen, they enlisted the talents
OF such capable performers as Lionel
Barrymore, Wally Berry, Spring By
ington and Aline Mcmahon and the
less developed but still highly effec-
tive skill of Cecilia Parker and Eric
Linden, all Of whom contributed much
to script which already had lot.
The result was "Ah, Wilderness!"

Guided"
At any rate, with that journalistic
artfulness which has so rightfully
earned the commentator of the
press, 1.-THE Supreme Court" is the
outstanding topic of the edition of
March of Time" which makes its ap-
pearance on April 16 No effort is
made to investigate the fundamental
issues involved. The film is con-
cerned rather with personalities. On
the one side it presents the case of
President Roosevelt, on the other
that of the Supreme Court justices
as given voice by Senator Burton K.
Wheeler of Montana.
IN THE making of the film its spon-
sors have been extremely careful to
avoid anything resembling a predic-
ton of the outcome of the Presi-
dents proposal to modify the con-
struction of the court. They have
sought, rather, to bring out both sides
of the controversy without expressing
a preference for either. To this end
they have obtained the cooperation
of every member of the Supreme
bench in one of the most searching
bits of camera reporting yet written.
AS usual, however, the coming reels
which will be shown at Keiths are
not limited to the one subject, how
ever important it may seem. The
two other topics with which it deals
are Amateur Sleuths" and Britain S
Food Defenses." The latter is con-
cerned with the answer of the war
ministry to the situation created by
the circumstance that more than one
half of the applicants for military
service have been rejected on the
ground Of undernourishment. The
method of making fighters out of the
relatively foodless is expected to
arouse virtually as much comment in
this country as in England.
