The Theatres

MURRETTE The remarkable success of "Miss Hobbs," the first Wanda Hawley starring production, created such a furore in this city that Manager Holland of the Murrette Theatre has been besieged with questions as to when the young comedienne's second starring photoplay would be shown. He Is now able to announce that "Food for Scandal," adapted from the Paul Kester farce, "Beverly Balance," will be presented Wednesday and Thursday. Miss Hawley is again supported by Harrlon Ford and a cast equal in ability to that which made such a success of the star's initial offering. MURRAY Frederick Stanton, leading man with Madlaine Traverse in "The Spirit of Good," showing at the Murray, is the same Frederick Stanton whose name was prominent in newspaper sporting pages until recently. His transfer to the dramatic news columns is the result of an accident to his pitching arm. If it had not been for the failure of his arm Mr. Stanton might never have known that he had the makings of an actor, and might now be playing big league instead of playing in William Fox screen productions.

Cured His RUPTURE" I was badly ruptured while lifting; a trunk several years ago. Doctors said my only hope ol cure was an operation. Trusses did me no good. Finally I got hold of something that quickly and completely cured me. Years have passed and the rupture has never returned, although I am doing hard work as a carpenter. There was no operation, no lost time, no trouble. I have nothing to sell, but will give full information about how you may find a complete cure without operation, if yov write to me, Eugene M.

Now Think of That and be Awed! Sylvia's family was the oldest and bluest-blooded in all the West, but her ancestors hadn't left her much material wealth.

A family name is desirable but money has its uses! Not only was Sylvia shy on money, but the man she loved, Watt Dinwiddie, was a lawyer of promise but no practice. Watt decided he must not ask Sylvia to marry him until he was well along the road to prosperity. It seemed a long road to Sylvia, who set her wits working to get business for her young lawyer-lover. She got him clients, all right, but almost extinguished their love match !
