HOW TO JUDGE A WOMAN BY HER HAIR

Wv..

WASHINGTON From the top of the stone steps in the ancient city of Magdala she beckons to a passing Roman soldier, and the Scribes and the Pharisees gathered to drive her from the city. Two thousand years later, from the stoop of a modern dwelling in an American city, she is beckoning to passersby, and or.ce again a movement is organized to drive her out. Elijah Bradnhaw (Charles Dalton), the financial pillar of Edinburg, heads a reform movement and invites a noted evangelist to help rid the city of its evil3. But while he lends his energies to the movement, important events transpire in his own home. His pretty daughter, Elizabeth (Margaret Marsh), has come to the very brink of ruin, and while the reformers plan to banish the scarlet women, Elizabeth makes a confession to her mother. Made a fanatic by the spirit of reform, he refuses to listen to the pleas of daughter and mother, and Elizabeth is cast out. Bradshaw, giving way to grief, falls into slumber end there appears before him the Magdalene. She leads him to where is revealed the results of the

movement to which he has lent his power. He Is shown his daughter, cast out by him, seeking refuge in the louses he had intended to cleanse, lie sees her attacked by the mob aroused by his own words, and is helpless to protect her. He sees his eon arrested for the murder of Macy, Ms recretary. whom he killed to avenge his sister. Finally, as one blow after another falls upon him, he sees his wife die from the shock of the disasters that have come to the family. Misery has been brought home to him. He Is shown how those, to whom he has paid but scant attention, live. Ho learns that power and money alone cannot cure the evils that have provailed through centuries. He relents. Then, suddenly, he leaps up to find that he is in his own home and that lie has been In a dream. But its revlations have transformed him. Charity !ias come into hl3 soul. His daughter is just leaving the house, as he commanded. He intercepts her and takes her into his arms. The mask of death and the prison walls have disappeared and he finds his wife and son there, too. So, surrounded by his family, he quietly puts an end to the great reform movement that was to cleanse Edinburg. Charlie Chaplin made the trip across the Atlantic with President Wilson on his return to Paris, March 4, and was introduced to the president on board the transport George Washington. That is the "canned" Charlie did. In selecting the films to be shown aboard ship to entertain the president and his aids, the government asked Kssanny for the Essanay-Chaplin film "The Bank," which will be shown at the Washington theatre on Wednesday and Thursday. It is reported that t he president laughed until his side3 fllOO'v MURRAY. " Another good vaudeville bill, and a very interesting picture is on view at The Murray this first half. The Cycling Brunettes may lead one to believe they will see comely dark-haired maidens riding wheels, but this is all wrong, as the name belongs to a team of two men who have the best comedy and trick bicycle act ever seen in Richmond. Their routine consists of a number of tricks cleverly executed by the "straight" rider, while the comedian of the act, extracts more hearty laughs from the audience than Charlie Chaplin does in a two-reel picture. His comedy is clean and wholesome, and he scored one of the biggest comedy hits of the season. Here is an act that, will take all the tired out of the iired business man, Joe Martini, Judging from his stature, does not impress one upon his entrance as having many tricks up his sleeve, but he finishes his monologue and songs, the audience is craving for more, so we will have to credit him with a hit also. The Four Musical Lunds close

the show with an exceptionally classy straight musical act. They open with trumpets, then offer a number of airs from the opera of "Faust" upon four xylophones, which is a gem musically. Their medley of patriotic songs for a finish clinches their hold upon the audience, and they put over hit number three of the evening. Wrarren Kerrigan in bis picture, "The End of the Game," has some of the best work he has done to his credit. The interest and action is strong throughout, with a thrilling climax which arouses the audience to enthusiasm. This bill closes Wednesday making way for Menlo Moore's big girl act, "The Rainbow Revue." Donald Crisp, who directed Fred Stone's new starring vehicle "Johnny Get Your Gun," has scored wonderful successes with his recent pictures and It was his fine direction of such Paramount pictures as "Believe Me, Xantippe," and "The Firefly of France," starring Wallace Reid, that led to his selection as the man to direct Fred Stone when that famous eccentric comedian left musical comedy to take a dip in the picture drama. The choice has proved a wise one and "Johnny Get Your Gun," which is being shown at the Murray Thursday, Friday and Saturday of this week is a joint tribute to the splendid direction of Crisp and the humor and acrobatic ability of Fred Stone.

"The

MURRETTE Big moments of Interest In

Jungle Trail" at the Murrelte. Love interest and rivalry develop from the start. We find Mary Lamar courted by Robert Morgan, favored but poor, and Phillip Garson, disliked, but rich. One 6hudders, knowing about the plot to do away with Morgan, when the latter joyfully accepts Garson's suggestion to go on a tiger hunting expedition. In Africa, the plotters bribe the natives to revolt, fire the village and riddle Morgan's hut with bullets. Morgan escapes by cutting his way out. of the hut, but is pursued to a lake, shot and falls into the water. The plotters carry back word to America of Morgan's death, occasioning a tensely dramatic scene that culminates fatally for Morgan's aged mother and seems to pave the way for Garson's success as a suitor. After long wandering, Morgan, exhausted, comes to a great city inhabited by a strange people and is condemned to death immediately by burning at the stake as a sacrifice to the gods. Highly dramatic scene of the eacrifice when Morgan pulls up the post to which he is chained and the amazed watching hosts acclaim him the god of strength. Tremendous fight between Morgan and Ebano, a native chieftain, in which the chief, foiled In bis attempt to use a dagger, is hurried into a lake. Morgan, preparing to escape, but being caught in the Eacred temple, avoids death by overturning a huge idol of Ebano. Mighty climax in which Morgan, returned to America as a Hindu seer, outlines his adventures to Garson and Mary Lamar and then dramatically reveals himself.

In the performance, they have a hundred stunts which they pull in the rings, on the stages, in the air and on the track. They are always on the job and they will bet that they can make you laugh as you never laughed before, for they are the pick of American and European funmakers.

There is real common sense in Just noticing whether the hair is well kept to judge of a. woman's neatness, or good taste. If you are one of the few who try to make the most of your hair, remember that it is not advisable to wash the hair with any cleanser made for all purposes, but always use some good shampoo. You can enjoy the very best by getting some Canthrox from your druggist, dissolve a teaspoonful In a cup of hot water. This makes a cup full of shampoo liquid, enough so it is easr to apply it to all the hair Instead of Just the top of the head. Dandruff, excess oil. and dirt are dissolved and entirely disappear. Your hair will be so fluffy that it will look much heavier than it is. Its luster and softness will also delight you, while the stimulated scalp gains the health which insures hair growth. Adv.
