HOOT GIBSON AT
PALACE TONIGHT
Life in tho West, not the wild and
wooly West of dime novel fame, but
the real West of today, is pictured
in Hoot Gibson’s latest Universal spec
ial "The Ramblin' Kid," which comes
to the Palace tonight.
Star of innumerable film plays of
Western outdoor adventure, Gibson
faces entirely new situations in
"The Ramblin’s Kid,” It is a re
markably human novel, written by
Earl Weyland Bowman.
In the supporting cast are such
popular favorites as Laura La Plante,
'Hibson's leading woman in many oth
er Universal productions, Harold
{Hoodr.'in, the Juvenile lead In “The
flirt,” and “Alice Adams," William
Welsh, Churlc; K. french, Carol Hol
loway, John Judd, H. Raymond Nye,
'W. T. McCulloy and others.
"The Ramblin' Kid" is a young
cowboy with a penchant for playing
{drunk and shooting up saloons. He
| does it so often and so artistically
and most people believe it’s real.
Which is a bad tiling, especially,
] when the "most people” includes a
certain beautiful young girl whom
I he’d ratlcr have think well of him.
"7 YEARS OF BAD LUCK"
| AT COLISEUM TONIGHT
The long felt need of a roaring
comedy with a top-notch comedian,
lias been satisfied. "Seven Years
Bad Luck,” the new Robertson-Cole
superspecial with Max Linder, which
will open at the Coliseum theatre
tonight, for a run of two days, Is
what you have wanted for many
moons. Critics who have seen this
picture agree that it is the cleanest
big comedy ever filmed. There are
none of the slap-stick, pie-throwing
stunts used to bring out. the laughs.
There Is an honest-to-goodness story
running through the picture which

gives one ridiculous situation after
another.
“Seven Years 13ml Luck” runs the
gamut of things which go lo make
fun. There are any number of exter
ior and interior settings of a high
grade through which the story is
woven. In some respects it Is a
lesson to the over-superstitious. The
fact that seven years of ill fortune
is heralded by the breaking of a i
i mirror, is burlesqued in a clever!
manner. ,
With Hie comedian is an excellent
cast including: Thelma Percy, Alta]
Allen, Hetty Peterson, Lola Gonzales, I
Harry Mann. Chance Ward, Ralph i
McCullough, Hugh Saxon, Cap Ander
son, F. B. Crayne and Pudgy the i

“FURY" V/ILL BE

"Fury” is coming.'
But in spite of that fact there is
nothing to lie feared. For “Fury"
i : none other than Richard Barthel
raess’ latest First National screen
starring vehicle, and it is scheduled
to begin an engagement at the Pal
ace Thursday.
This is said to be the greatest
picture thus far made by Barthel
mess.
In the cast are Dorothy Gish, Ty
rone Powers, Pat Hartigan, Harry
Macolium and Jessie Arnold. Di
rected hv Harry King, it is de
scribed as a vivid drama of the
seas, dealing with the experiences
of "Boy” Leyton, the rather timid
second mate of a four-masted schoon
er, who is considered a coward even
by his own father, the captain. How |
his love is won and his fury fanned
to white heat of courage, disproving
the beliefs of his associates, is re
vealed on the screen in this highly
dramatic pieturization of Edmund
Doubling's story.
THEODORE KOSLOFF IN
“TO HAVE AND TO HOLD”
Realism lias its disadvantages. Or.
at least, so thinks Theodore Kosloff,
With much coaxing, the Russian dan
cer and Paramount player raised a
cute little goatee for his role of
U>rd Carnal in “To Have and To
Hold." a George Fitznmurice produc
tion for Paramount, featuring Betty
Compsen and Bert Lytell, which
comes to the Coliseum theatre on
Thursday. But, curses! No one
would believe it was Hie real tiling!
"What a fine makeup!" they
told him, giving a goatee a hearty
tug. As the Kosloff chin grew sore
under this explanatory treatment, he
lias decided that "Art For Art's sake"
lias distinctly painful possibilities.

LADIES! DARKEN

Use Grandma s Sage Tea and Sul
phur Recipe and Nobody
Will Know
The use of Sago and Sulphur for
restoring faded, gray hair to its
natural color dales back to grand
mother’s time. She used it to keep
her hair beautifully dark, glossy
and attraetlve. Whenever her nair
took on that duli, faded or streaked
appearance, tills simple mixture
was applied with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home Is mussy
and out-of-date. Nowadays, by ask
ing at any drug store ror a bottle
of Wyeth’* Sage and Sulphur Com
pound,” you will get this famous
old preparation, Improved by the
addition to other ingredients, which
can be depended upon 10 restore
natural color and beauty to the hair.
A well-known down-town drug
gist says it darkens the hair so na
turally that nobody can tell it has
been applied. You simply dampen
a sponge or soft brush with It and
draw this tlirough your hair, tak
ing one strand at a time. By morn
ing the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, 11
becomes beautifully dark and glos
