KICK RAISED OVER POOR GAS AT BRAZIL

Petition Protesting Against Service Being Rendered Public To Be Filed With Commission.

By Special Correspondent. BRAZIL, Ind., Sept. 4.-—The city council last night instructed the city attorney and the public utilities committee of the council to prepare a petition to be filed with the Indiana public service commission protesting against the service being rendered tae public by the Flrazil Gas company.

The action of the council last night followed reports and complaints which members of the council claim have N"-n made to the city in the quality of gas being- supplied by the Brazil Gas company to its patrons.

Members of the council complain that the gas furnished by the Brazil Oa* company larks the necessary heat units. Instances were recited where housewives complained that they had turned tl*e gas on full force to prepare dinner, but after two hours the food on the gas stove had not .been cooked. Cithers reported instances of where the gas had been turned on in full force on the oven and failed to bake bread.

It was also reported that the quarter meters supply such little amount of gas for a quarter that It keeps a per* son busy sticking quarters into the meters. Some claim that on account of the poor quality of the gas they .have been using up a quarter a day in the gas meters and then not getting good results from the gas.

The petition will be drawn i.p at. once and filed with the public service commission as soon as possible. It will set out as the principal grounds for complaint that the gas supplied by the company lacks the standard number of heat units and the public service commission will be asked to compel the Brazil Gas company to fnrnish the public with a better article of gas.

Annual Reunion Abandoned.

Impacted Wisdom Tooth

Removed Painlessly

When Revealed by X-Ray

THE ILLUSTRATION ABOVE SHOWS WISDOM TOOTH BURIED IN THE BONE OF THE JAW UNDER THE LEFT EAR, WHICH HAD CAUSED UNTOLD SUFFERING IN THE GLANDS OF THE NECK.

More forcefui than words the picture tefls of the wonderful revelation of our Iental X-Ray. This picture was taJcen in our office of a local sufferer who had been compelled to have th«* glands of her neck treated for months because of a continuously running sore. Her physician recommended that sh« have an X-FUy photograph taken of her teeth, thinking that the trouble might be o&nsed by an ulcerated condition at the roots. In taking the X-Ray her teeth were found to be in good condition, but the wisdom tooth was discovered imbedded in the jaw bone under the left ear. This was removed without pain by using our local anaesthetic and without putting the patient to sleep. Immediately the running sore began to bdal and today this lady is well and free from suffering.

"Mairsie Taylor Waitress," the comedy drajna in miniature, which is the important act on the bill at the Hippodrome, is presented by a quartet of players of big league quality. Harry Knglish is no stranger to Terre Haute audiences. He has a capital part in the sketch in which Josephine Morse and others are appearing. The weekend bill at the Hip. starting Thursday, brings back Harry Tate's good old Knglish act, "Motoring." It was in one of Mr. Tate's vaudeville offerings that our nimble little friend, Charlie Chaplin, was first introduced to this country.

Theda Bara, etcher o^ erotic figures on the screen, comes to the Grand Thursday to exercise her wiles on Herod and those of his circle useful to h.ir in "Salome," a magnificent production just completed in southern California by William Fox, in which the Jerusalem of 40 B. C. is faithfully reproduced. Old biblical prints served- as s, scenic guide, and as the story, the facts related by Josephus, the great .Jewish historian, are adhered to rather than any of the fanciful versions that have been based on the origrinal account.

When the dance of the seven veils was first presented to the public 'n the operatic production of "Salome," being the Oscar Wilde poem set to symphonic music by Richard Strauss, a sensation followed. Critics in NewYork. scene of the premiere, heaped c.s-iticism on Mary Garden's Interpretation of the dance, and the directors of the Metropolitan opera house decided that the first performance was also to be considered the last. It wa« forthwith banned.

Bring Bodies Home

WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.—Americans who lose their lives in the war abroad will be buried there only temporarily. Where identification is possible, the bodies will be placed in marked graves, to be taken up when the war is over and brought home.

This plan of the war department was disclosed today by the publication of articles of agreement between the army and navy regarding the transportation of sick and wounded from overseas. A section of the agreement says: 'The remains of all officers, enlisted men and civilian employes who have died or will hereafter die in France shall be buried in France until the end of the war, when the remains shall be brought back to the United States for final interment. Snch cemeterial facilities as the army may have acquired in France shall be available to the navy.

The remain# of all officers, enlisted men and civilian employes who die on ships shall he embalmed and returned to the United States on the ship on which the death occurred."

Be Careful in Using Soap on Your Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle.

The best thing to use is Just plain mulsifW'd cocoanut oil, for it is pnre and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps or anything -else all to pieces. Too can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months.

Simply moisten the hair wfth water and rub it in, about a teaspoonfhl is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy, and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dandruff.—Advt,

The Orphrum.

In "The Bravest Way." the Paramount fftm at the Orpheum, we get a very good view of the Japanese quarter ol» San Francisco with little Japanese children playing in a quaint old garden and S^ssue Hayakawa making love to Florence Vidor, who represents a half American school teacher.

The story, written by Edith Kennedy, puts our allies in the Orient in a very good light. The Jap hero is an ambitious laborer with talent as a landscape artist. He marries tne widow of a murdered friend in order to give the Kirl a home, though he loves another. Some time during the course of the flickering a kind old gentleman dies, leaving the bulk of his fortune to the Jap who married his son's widow and there is peace and plenty for everyone as the story turns out. Mr. Hayakawa, one of the best of the Paramount's "romantic" actors, gives a very fine impersonation of the gardener. Florence Vidor and little Isuru Aoki hare the leading feminine roles and Winter Hall, Tom Kurahara. Jane Wolff and Guy Oliver are others in the cast. With "The Bravest Way," the official British war film is shown.

Amnios*.

"Her Body in Bond," the photoplay in which little Mae Murray, late of the Paramount forces, is the featured player at the American, is partly based upon the experience of an actress who once worked in the same company with Miss Murray. It tells of the effort of a vaudeville actress to support herself and her husband who is In Arisona for his health, without assistance from a wealthy admirer. '"In a company I was with a few years ago," relates Miss Murray, "there was a young married couple. The husband became ill. so ill that he had to give up his part and go west. The wife—she was an awfully nice little girl—gave up her savings to send him away. Her salary was barely enough to keep herself alone, yet she tried bravely to support her husband in Arizona and pay his medi^-al expenses. "This was an Impossibility, we knew, so several of us who were in more fortunate circnmstancee arranged with the manager to raise her salary Her pay was more than doubled and we 'chipped In' each week and turned over to the manager enough to meet the increase. "She never knew we were doing it. of course, for her pride never would have permitted her to accept the arrangement. 'Her husband finally recovered," she concluded, "but 1 don't know what she would have done but for our help."

With Miss Murray's yarn for a basis. H. Sheridan Bickers, the daring younp scenarloist, worked up the story that is now related upon the screen at the American. Miss Murray is the actress, Kenneth Harlan the husband, and A1 Roscoe. the G. Lothario, who tries to take advantage of the girl's plight. The picture will be shown today and Thursday.

Princess.

Eddie lyons and Lee Moran are the stars in "A Duck Out of Water," today's comic film at the Princess. "Businff Before Honesty" is also shown The special feature for Thursday is "Midnight Madness." a Blue Bird "photoplay, produced by Rupert Julian, who gave us "The Kaiser or the Beast of Berlin."' In the cast are Ruth Clifford: Kenneth Harlan. "Midnight Madness" is a detective film, a sequel to "The Mysterious Mr. Tiller."

ANSWERS TO QCKRIES. Arabella—Rupert Julian is a native of Manchester, England. He fought in the Boer war. Before going into pictures he acted In this country with tewis Waller and Tyrone Power. In "Julius Caesar" he played Mar Antony to Mr. Power's Brutus.
