Adventures

FOUND TODAY
I. A snug skull rap for bathing,
it. Kxqnlslte decorated candles,
a. Smart frock for shopping.
4. Heavy white kid (lores at light
prices.
IT HAS been said that the fortune of
the man who lnents a bathing cap
that'Wlll keep the hair quite dry Is as
sured. This question of keeping one's
hair dry Is a mighty difficult one The
wearing of a tight rubber cap under
one's "show" cap has been found of help.
But, of course, jou do not want to get
an expensive cap to wear underneath.
Perfectly plain skull caps can be had
for ten cents And the assurance is that
they are equal in quality to the twenty-flve-cent
caps .
I have seen square jandles and round
candles, striped ones and .plain ones, but
never have I beheld such foely candles
as I discovered today. They are long,
tapering to a point at the end, are of a
beautiful old blue, and hae richly hand
patnted roses. and leaes as decorations
Oh, but they aro. lovelj, these candles!
And once jou see them you will want a
pair Of course, you 11 never light thern,
hut how they would "'set oft' that en
tire living-room or dining-room! "Their
price Is $2 50 a pair.
It Is so nice to have a cool, little, dark
frock to slip Into wheh going shopping
One I saw today is of dark blue olle,
a dainty white spray design being form
ed entlrely.pf dots of pin-point slie.V It
is made with an oversklrt, has a cool
looking white 'vest and dainty collar
and cuffs of a soft white material. It
should look well and wear well, and the
price, ou will be surprised to hear, Is
only $9 75.
Well, fashion leaders are beginning to
think of serge dressea. And with heav
ier gowns, comes the need fokld gloves
One of the shops has some lovely heavy
white kid gloves and black gloves, with
white stitching, for el. 35 a pair The
new slip-on gloves In kid, resembling a
gauntlet somewhat, and which are so
well liked, can be had In black or white
for I 65.

B "SERVICE STAR"
Elsie Ferguson, Mae Murray
and Viola Dana in Other
Photoplays
STANLEY "The Service Star." with Madge
Kennedy. Directed by Charles Miller from
tho story by Charles A. Logue. doldvryn
plav.
This Is a good Goldwyn product be
cause they have kept away from any
attempt at tricky lightings or special
settings, but hae devoted the time to
the unfolding of a good story. Charles
Miller, the director, haa made many suc
cessful screen plays, and to him falls
tho credit for this one.
He has not permitted the star to over
act, nor has he brought In any tinneces
saryvbuslness not essential to the plot.
The manner In which the Identity of the
hero haa been kept In the background
Is a clever touch of the author.
There la a patriotic motif In this
story, but Its Interest centers chiefly Jn
the unusual situation of a girl who has
no sweetheart to knit for and who makes
a hero ot a soldier whose deeds she reads
ofs'ln the paper.
Mlw Kennedy Is charming In her role
of a I plain Jane" and the transforma
tion Into a beautiful girl In the ilnal part
of the story Is a tribute to the value of
correct clothes and proper hair dress
ing Clarence Oliver Is the son and Maude
Turner Gordon the mother. Mabel Bal
lln has a small part, as does Tammany
Young.
PALACE "The Bride's Awakening." with
Mae Murrav Directed by Robert Leonard
from the story by F. McQrew Willis. Uni
versal play ,
The chief Interest In this story Is the
return to the screen of Mae Murray
after an absence of over a year. She
la a good actress, but her work Is not
as w ell received as ft should be
She gradually advanced from the
young girl who marries to be rid ot a
lot of bothersome people to a woman
who steps Into her husband's party, and
from then on she displayed a lot ot
emotional talent that Is a treat to see
As a story of marital life this one Is a
fair example ot the average type found
on the screens
Director Robert Leonard, who for
merly acted In leading roles for the
Universal Company, has directed this;
story with Intelligence and keeps up
the interest throughout. He nas also
furnished some pleasing "settings
Lew Cody Is a new type of screen
villain, and his work Is ery good, while
Clarissa Selwynne makes a good oppo
site In the role of a married friend.
Harry Carter Is her husband, and
Ashton Dearholt Is the friend who de
fends Miss Murray from an attack by

"The Danger Mark" w 111 not appeal
to children, but It will find a hearty
reception from audiences made up of
thinking people.
This Is a story which has had a wide
circulation, and It centers about a girl's
fight against a heritage of the drink
habit. How she succeeds In conquering
this habit and finds happiness with her
boyhood chum Is all told in a manner
that has made the direction of Hugh
Ford so strikingly real.
' The Introduction of another pair of
lovers furnishes ndded interest.

Miss Dana plays her part In her usual
style, bringing Into play all of the man
nerisms which have made her such a
favorite player. Her husband-director
knows how to bring out his star's best
acting with telling effect.
Edward Abeles, who has appeared In
many spoken plays, has a prominent
part, as has Hale Hamilton, who offers
the "opportunity" to Miss Dana. "Frank

among the attraction Is "The Chinese

Wilson, Bond and company In a highly ,
