4 ROOTS, bahKS, HERBS j II Known to Possess Unequaled Value In Spring Ailments ] Are prominent ingredients of Hood's Sarsaparilla, in which they ( are so combined as to be most ef fective. This great blood-purifying and strength-giving medicine is easily the leading proprietary medicine for the blood, stomach, liver an.1 .kidneys, which almost universally need attention in the spring. Thou sands take it year after year with entire satisfaction for that tired feeling, that loss of appetite, that eruption on the face or body, and that low or run-down condition of the system so common now. And they enthusiastically recommend it to others. Begin taking it at once, three times a day after meals. It is pleasant to take and “makes food taste good.”, If you need a laxative or cathar tic, take Hood’s Pills. You will find them gentle and thorough. Colonial Theatre Mary Miles Minter, Earle Williams, Taylor Holmes, Clara Kimball Young, Wn. Russell, and Other Stars, to Be Seen the Next Few Days. “Anne of Green Gables,” Thursday Mary Miles Minter in an adaptation of the well known story “Anne of Green Gables” is just the kind of a picture a mother will want her children to see and the husband want his wife to see. And we think the whole family will enjoy it together and leave with many kind re marks about “Anne of Green Gables.” The story of the play is as follows: When Anne Shirley, an orphan, first comes to live in the household of Manila Cuth bert and her brother Matthew, she is not overly welcome and the sharp tongue of Manila often causes Anne great unhappi ness. But as she grows up she blooms and ere long she is the village belle. When Matthew dies she becomes school teacher to take care of blind Marilla. And eventually she marries the most eligible young man in town, a young and prosperous physician. A comedy and others will be shown Thursday also in connection with the feature attraction. “The Fortune Hunter,” Friday. As a play “The Fortune Hunter” won fame from coast to coast It has drawn capacity houses in about every city in the country and is always a favorite ve hicle for stock companies. The film ver sion has a much wider range. Scenes that were impossible to stage owing to the limitations of paint, canvas and time are included in the pieturization. The natural scenery, the rural atmosphere and the accurate eye of the camera give a force and beauty to the action that is otherwise impossible. The story in itself is one of absorbing interest. It is the type that is ever popular with old and young because it idealizes youthful aspir ations and achievement. It is only fitting that such a feature should have an actor of Earle Williams’ caliber in the stellar role. His frank countenance, his jovial disposition, his clean cut features and splendid physique are typical of the American youth. “The Very Idea,” Saturday. Taylor Holmes will come Saturday in his newest, funniest comedy, “The Very Idea,” adapted to the screen from the New York comedy success by William LeBaron. Those who still are chuckling over the comedians last appearance, in “Nothing But the Truth” will have in this most rece: t production an attraction which is utterly uiiferent, except that it is fully as hilarious and diverting. Mr. Holmes will be seen as Gilbert Goodhue, a young husband who has been pampered all his life and who finds, after his marriage, that his yvite is of the same sort. The thing they both want above all things is a baby and doctors have as sured Gilbert that Edith is too frail. There are so many babies in the world, grown up and otherwise, that it would seem on first thought an easy matter to get one of them without its being missed. But the story of “The Very Idea” belies this assumption. Edith’s brother, an authority on eugenics, comes to the res cue confidently. That is only the start of the trouble. What follows forms one of the most absurdly funny, yet none the less human and appealing comedies ever written. the 12th episode of “Lightning Bryce” and the News will also be shown Satur day. Clara Kimball Youug in “Eyes of Youth” Monday and Tuesday. Matinee at 2.30, 25c and 15c; Evening Show at 7.30, 35c, 25c and 15c. The screen’s most vital personality, Clara Kimball Young, comes Monday and Tuesday in the big dramatic feature, “Eyes of Youth,” from the play of the same name by Max Marcin. A story that deals with the problem of knowing the right thing to do—whether to sacrifice one’s happiness for others or to choose the career that means the soul’s highest development. That is the problem that confronts Gina Ashling. Her beautiful voice offers her a career in Paris, a rich, much older man wants her for his wife, and a young brother and sister, motherless, make remaining at home seem her duty. Whi h shall she choose— Ambition — Wealth—or Duty? And all the time there is Peter waiting for her, young, handsome Peter, who loves Her and dreams of the future they shall build together. And then, from far-oiT India comes a Yogi, a wanderer in a strange land, who hears her plea for guidance, and in a crystal ball she sees into the future—sees what will come to pass if siie follows each of the paths that lie open to her. She sees herself as she will be if she remains at home, caring for her family, sacrificing herself for them. Then Paris comes before her eyes, where she is a beautiful opera singer, success ful, a woman of the world, and, last, as the wife of a rich man, whom she has married to help her father’s finances. And she learns that “Duty done in viola tion of the laws of life is a weak yielding to the sellishness of others.” After hav ing shown Gina the future with the eyes of the sou), the Yogi departs into the night from whence he came and Gina solves her problem, thus helping the others whom she loves to solve theirs, remembering the Yogi’s last words: “Love with Wisdom is the secret of Life.” "The Lincoln' Highwayman,” Wednesday Speed’s the middle name of~Jimmy Clunder, the leading character in “Trie Lincoln Highwayman,” the new William Fox feature by Paui Dickey, in which William Russell will be starred on Wed nesday. During the whole action of the picture Russell is moving at top speed. He is usually in a fast automobile which he always drives at the limit, up hill and down dale. Obstacles which would stop an ordinary driver mean nothing in his young life. Even when be is making, love Russell is in action. The girl is finally won by him because she cannot resist his speed. The heroine is played by pretty Lois Lee, a newcomer to < ox features, al though an experienced film actress. Also on Wednesday the second episode of that thrilling wild animal serial "The Lost City.” THE CHURCHES UNITARIAN CHURCH. First Parish. Minister, Rev. A. E. Wilson.

Our electric washing-machine and ironer have simplified the work so greatly that it is done with comparative ease.” 1 THE big ironer has been called the silent partner of the heme laundry. Sheets, spreads, table-cloths are simply fed into ; the machine very smoothly. Its polished “shoe” quickly | presses out every wrinkle and puts a beautiful gloss on linens. | Embroideries are nicely ironed. It is surprising how well even the most delicate pieces are ironed; for instance, lace curtains. | The shoe is heated either by gas, gasoline or electricity and | the heater can be regulated. The cost of an hour’s operation of | an ironer is about three cents: one cent for gas and two cents for current, and a big ironing can be done in ninety minutes. An electric motor does the hard work.
