This is what Thedn Bara did
for "t'leopatia," the Vox won?
der film, and it is hill one of a
number of mittlres of similai
ealibre in which this famous
screen actress is sinned, "Cleo?
patra" is the gronteet and most
suitable character for the ills
play of the laicals of this rare
star.
Never in her life bus Miss
Bara entered to eiirnesily into
a characterization nt> she has
into "I'lecpalra." Not content
with a mere casual and Bliper*
tieinl study of tiie character.
Miss Bara bus delved into all
the historical records at her
command, in regard to the sav?
agely-imperious, magical ly-ul
I luring Quoon, about whom con?
troversy lias raged during all
the centuries since she lived.

Here is, perhaps, the greatest
collection of the kind In the

Miss Uarii, h) thorough study,
hussucceeded in resurrecting
many forgotten and obscure
traits of character of the fa

never before been expressed

The selfish ambition i an un
priucipiiled ruler has made it
self felt from one end of the
world to t lie other, has produc. d
results far beyond ami intention
or expectation. F.ir instance,
I Dr. Robertson, to* head of the
Chicago health department, es?
timates that ui the 400 UUO
deaths from inlltien/.a and pneu?
monia in this country, one hall'
could have been prevented if
the suiters had had skilled nur?
ing. This i. was impossible in
supply, fin the ai my had I ? ?
ipiircd 20,U00 trained nurses tb
meet its needs. This left at
home barely enough ex peri
eencod nurses for ordinary
times, and when (he epidemic
arrived the Scarcity ol" nurses
was immediately felt. The poo
ph- who ilie.I on account of stlf
ftcieht cure in sickness wore us
truly victims of ihe Prussian
military system as if they hud
died on the li, Id of battle.
Uncle Sam's 'roubles in the
