Wrath of Gods at Palace

It demonstrates not only the social crimes as they exist, but also the road to reform. This picture will be shown for one day only.

For next Tuesday's big production the Palace -will offer the New York Motion Picture Corporation's stupendous spectacle, "The Wrath of the Gods," a powerful and gripping story based on the old Japanese legend of the House of Samurai of Yamato beipg cursed and unable to marry any other member of their family.

World Mastery at the Lyru At the Lyric Monday, a startlin reel, "For the Mastery of the World,' will be shown.

And with all this terrible force at his command the man made the appointment for the final test of the weapon. Then there was a girl arid a

secret service detective, who loved the girl. Then a terrific explosion j forever destroyed the invention and 1

tight into the arms of her lover, the secret service officer.

"LITTLE GRAY HOME." Wednesday the Lyric answers the question: "Can it honestly be said that any of the artificialities which embrace modern life are for the betterment of humanity?" This problem is brought out in a startling way in "The Little Gray Home," in which Anne, the author's wife, represents the real Madame De Vere, a woman of the world, is the symbol of all things artificial. In their little home in the country, the author and his wife are happy, he

his writing and abe In her little -den. They live a natural, true life. 3ut the artificial creeps in. A althy woman comes into the little me, sees the auth&r, realizes that he handsome. The struggle begins, id for a time the artificial wins out. -i the end, however, the truth trlmphs and the worldly woman is hown in her natural self, deceitful and common. "THE TRAIL BREAKERS." Thursday the Lyric has a western film. The lives of those sturdy men who face the terrors of the frontier to penetrate throught with their highways of iron, are so crowded with thrilling adventures that the incidents comprising their daily program would make a story which would far outshine anything written in fiction. To portray properly the exciting lives which these engineers lead, a writer must be well fortified with experience and imagination. It is because the things are true that they present difficulties, for is not indeed "the truth stranger than fiction?" In the construction of this story, "The Trail Breakers," the writer deserves a great deal of praise for his skillful handling of so wonderful a theme, and the producer and actors for their supreme work in visualizing the plot.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result from uric acid, says noted authority. The kidneys filter this acid from the blood and pass it on to the bladder, where It often remains to irritate and inflame, causing a burning, scalding sensation, or setting up an irritation at the neck of the bladder, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night. The sufferer is in constant dread, the water passes sometimes with a scalding sensation and is very profuse; again, there is difficulty in avoiding it. Bladder weakness, most folks call it, because they can't control urination. While it is extremely annoying and sometimes very painful, this is really one of the most simple ailments to overcome. Get about four ounces of .Tad Salts from your pharmacist and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast, continue this for two or three days. This will neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer is a source of irritation to the bladder and urinary organs which then act normally aga'n. Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless, and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia. and is used by thousands of folks who are subject to urinary disorders caused by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is splendid for kidneys and causes no bad effects whatever. Here you have a pleasant, effervescent lithia-water drink, which quickly relieves bladder trouble. t Advertisements
