The Theatres

MURRAY No season is complete without a visit from that love and lava drama, "The Bird of Paradise" which comes to the Murray Theatre, April 8, for its annual engagement. It is already in its tenth season of Joyous travels and the interest in its survival is unabated. In its several years of travel "The BIrl of Paradise" has accumulated a huge fortune for its producer and author, Richard Walton Tally. It is BtiU one of the anomalies of the theatrical business in that It proves that the Tally story of the Hawaiian Islands has the indefinable thing called "appeal", which gives the play its

vogue. Besides it holds & unique phxf e In the history of the American stage. Florence Rockwell, who enacted the role of Luana on its last visit will again essay the title part. The company includes Robert Brister, Brandon Evans, Gertrude Walthers, Rose WatFon, James K. Applebee, Leo Curley, John Sumner, Carrie Weller, and the famous Hawaiian singers, whose melodies are one of the fascinating charms of the play. WASHINGTON The much heralded performance of Richards, "The Wizard" will materailize at Washington Monday night and those who appreciate entertainment in its highest form will be given one of the season's best treats, for Richards and his big show of a thousand wonders comes here direct from a record-breaking tour of America's

i leading cities, where both press and

public acclaim it the greatest attraction of its kind in recent years. A solid carload of scenery, and amazing wonders are carried with the . Richards production, which is a dazzling whirl

1 of mysteries, sensations and clean fun.

The costumes and effects are the most elaborate ever carried with any similar attraction, and this undoubtedly will irrove one of the season's most enjoyable theatrical events. MURRETTE Some splendid acting is done by Eugene O'Brien in "Gilded Lies," the

latest Selznick Picture which is now showing at the Murrette theatre. Martin Ward, the villain in this piece, based his business on the principle that "there's a sucker born every minute." In fact, he preached it on all and sundry occasions, and was blantanlly offensive about it until he ran up against McComb, a young explorer who finally succeeded in ending his career of ruthlessness in a manner as harrowing as the most exacting audience could wish. Playing opposite Mr. O'Brien is Martha Mansfield, who gave a splendid performance, as did indeed every player in the cast.

come to a head the latter part of this

week. The commission will hold a meeting Friday and it is understood will consider the resignation of Mau-, rice Shelton, present secretary of the purchasing commission. Shelton sent bis resignation to the commission in

response to a request from Governor McCray that he resign, the understanding being that the governor desired to give the place to Robinson. If the commission, at its meeting Friday ac

cepts the Shelton resignation, the

chapter will be ended. . The members of the commission are Dr. S. EL Smith, Of the Eastern Hospital for the Insane at Richmond: Charles A- McGongale, superintendent of the boys school at Plain field ;'M. Epstein, of Frankfort, a trustee of the Northern Hospital for the Insane; Joseph Hennlng, of Anderson, a trustee of the state reformatory, and John Moorman, of Knox, a trusteo of the state prison. Just when action will be taken on the highway matter is not definitely known. It is said that one or two

members of the highwiy commissioners may hold their places. One who seems to have the best chance for slicking is Eart Crawford, of Connorsville, a Democratic member. Crawford for several years was a member of the legislature and his record was good. He was known as an anti-

machine . member . and. at- different times fought the Democratic machine' to a finish. The chances are it is said, that he will remain, on the commtosloii. -He la actively connected with the Indiana - Federation of Farmers - and during ' the legislative ' session was a member of the legislative committee of that organization. s '--' ' " r ,' : .i '

Quit for 10 Days Your old methods of teeth cleaning

See what this new way does. Watch your teeth whiten note how clean they feeL Millions have learned in this way how much film removal means. It is something that you should know.

You must fight film

Your teeth are coated with a viscous film. It clings to the teeth unless you combat it, gets between the teeth and stays. It forms a dingy coat which dims the luster of the teeth. It is the basis of tartar. It holds food substance which ferments and forms acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay. Millions of germs breed in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. Thus most tooth troubles are now traced to film. And, despite the daily brushing, very few escape them. The old brushing methods do not effectively fight film. New ways to combat it Cental science has now found ways to combat film. The methods are embodied in a dentifrice called Pepsodent. It has proved so effective that leading dentin 3 everywhere are now advising it. And millions ci people have already adopted it.

Pepsodent, with every use, brings five desired effects. It attacks the film in two efficient ways. It keeps teeth highly polished. It stimulates the salivary flow Nature's great tooth-protecting agent. It multiplies the starch digestant in the saliva, t'tut to digest the starch deposits which cling to tetth and often form acid. It multiplies the alkalinity of the saliva. That to neutralize the acids which cause tooth decay. Modern authorities regard these effects as essential aids to Nature, in view of the average diet. To bring those effects twice daily means such protection as you have not known before. See and feel them The results can be seen and felt. They are delightful, and this 10-day test will bring them 20 times. Send the coupon for rt Note how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absence of the viscous film. See how teeth whiten as the film-coats disappear. Watch the other good effects, and the book we send you will tell you what they mean. Do this now in justice to yourself.
