Skin, to be healthy, must breathe. It also meat expel, through the pores, its abare of the body's effete material. Creams and powders clog the pores Interfering both with elimination and breathing. If more women understood this, there would be fewer self-ruined complexions. If they would. u3e ordinary mercolixed wax instead of cosmetics, they would have natural, healthy romplexions. This remarkable substance actually absorbs a bad skin, also unalAgglng the pores. Result: The fresher. s*unger underskin is permitted to oTethe and to show itself.

That is Barrie's message in “Dear Brutus.” ' The message is disguised as comedy. The medium of presenting Barrie at his best is William Gillette. Madge Bellamy, 'Marie Wainwright, Violet KembleCooper and others. Barrie introduces his characters in the first act at Lob’s house. Lob looks like Puck grown up. He-lnvites “Just folks” to his house (your, house maybe) on midsumme| , ’s night eve. Included as she guests are Mr. Dearth, played by William Gillette and Mrs. Dearth played by Hilda Moore. Dearth is an artist who has thrown away his time in Indulgences on the theory that his wife does not care for him. Mrs. Dearth admits that she is sorry she did

Pad VENTURES rn tp-ij OF- THE TWINS jfcX, by Olive. Koberjy Barton QUEEN RUBY-JOAN. WE LEFT NANCY with her tongue in her cheek to keep it quiet, ail because the magical mushroom had stuck its head out of her pocket and told her not to let on she knew the queen. Nick, too, who had recognized Ruby-Joan, Nancy’s lost rag doll, stood on one foot and then on the other, trying hard to be quiet, ever so hard. The twins knew why, too, for they were smart little people. How would it do sor # thqm to say to a perfectly grand queen, with a crown on her head and with rows and rows and rows of servants in velvet suite,: “Why, you're not a queen at all; you're only Ruby-Joan, a lost rag doll!” Oil, no! It would never do in the world! I mean it would never do in the Land o' Lost Things, for that’s where the twins were. Ruby-Joan tried to look haughty and only stared at first. Then she held out her hand and said. “Welcome!'* And all the little teddy bear servants squeaked, “Welcome!” just as the queen had done. Ruby-Joan smiled a rag doll smile and said kindly, “Then follow me to the council room, please.” Then the magical mushroom stuck Its head out again, “Now, bow and say, ‘Thank you.’ then kneel and kiss the queen's hand." it commanded. So Nick and Nancy bowed just right. The green shoes helped them do it very gracefully. And they said, “Thank you.” Then Ruhy-.ioan said, “Would you like a private audience?” “Oh, yes, please!” cried Nick, before any one could stop him. “We're very hungry.” All the teddy bear servants giggled behind their paws, and Ruby-Joan smiled a rag doll smile, but she said, kindly, “Then follow me to the council room, please.” For she knew that Nancy would buret if she didn't get a chance to hug and kiss her soon. And I’m afraid so, too!—Copyright, 1920.

But Margaret can not come out of the wood. She can not be a “might have been”; she is a “never was.’ Miss Madge Bellamy plays the role of Margaret. In the wood. Mrs. Purdie is the wife of the man she might have married. Her “might have been" station was lower than that of Mrs. I’lirdie. 1 1, the same wood the rich society idler discovers that a butler can become n wealfhy manufacturer who does not make the beat goods, but sells them at the best prices. The third act Is devoted to bringing the characters out of the “might have been wood.” The transformation of character is done ns only Barrie can do it. The Dearths nre last seen walking arm in arm determined to make the present the best time of all.

Never has Mr. Gillette had such an opportunity to use the right shading utiil coloring to a characterization. fv> tender was his work In the inaglr forest scene with Miss Bellamy as Margaret that tears conic unconsciously to one's eye and that is chased away with a smile.

There is some home-made brew in “The Six Best Cellars” which has an awful kick. _ , Looks like the stuff might be related to the hoof of a frisky mule, so great is the kick. Any home having a little of the home brew of Bryant Washburn in his latest movie, “Six Best Cellars,” could turn the neighborhood upside down. That is what Washburn does in the movie. Story: Washburn thinks in this movie that a man’s social position is determined by the amount of private stock he has In his cellar. He gets into all kinds of funny situations in attempting to get the stuff. When he gives it up and climbs on the wagon, the church folks want to send him to congress. Opinion: Good comedy.
