Charlie Chaplin is evidently not the

New York, witli reference to the Es

The Justice denied Chaplin's applica

! This Skin Peeler All
j the Rage in Society
There is a growing tendency among
women of culture and fashion to pay
more attention to hygienic means of
preserving their charms. The advent
of mercoflzed wax doubtless has been
largely responsible for this. This re
markable substance produces com
plexion so natural in appearance, so
magnetically beautiful, artificial com
plexions are no longer desired. Instead
of "doctoring" an offensive skin, the
skin is peeled off. The wax peels the
skin so gradually, in such line particles,
no discomfort Is experienced. The
fresher, younger skin beneath, wholly
in evidence within a week or two, is
Illy white, satiny soft and smooth. It's
not a patched-over complexion, but a
brand new one. That's why mercollzed
wax has become such a rase among so
©l folk. The wax is put on nights
like cold cream and washed ott morn- :
Ings. All druggists have It; one ounce 1
will do.
Another hygienic treatment now
much In favor is one to remove
wrinkles, made by dissolving 1 oz. pow

• claim to have lost through hip breach
of contract.
Money may "make the mare go," but
it doesn't allow a motion picture actor
to do entirely "as he gol-darn pleases."
Doing two things at the same time is
an accomplishment any person can be
justly proud of.
That's probably the reason Ann Pen
nington, the Famous Players Para
mount star, feels so well pleased with
herself, as she has been granted the
opportunity of remaining on the stage
and playing in pictures at the same
, line.
f'harmiiiK Ann. of diminutive size, is
making "Susie Snowflake" for the Para
mount Program at the Famous Players
Studio. Her contract calls for her to
play one of the leading parts in Zieg
; feld's next production, despite the fact
that Famous Players exclusively con
■ trol her screen services.
LOCAL THEATERS

"Audrey." is the attraction at the Re
gent.
"Audrey" at Miss Frederick is, of
the Regent course, the waif, be
friended by Lord Ha- 1
ward and left by him in keep of the I
■ Dardens. who made a slave of her. The
child, attractive as a grown-up, meets
with her benefactor at the May Day
frolics, but It would have been better
for her to have been left to die than to
bear the slander and insults which the
! gosips soon associate with her because
i of her acquaintance with th.e nobleman.
But true love, in novels, as in photo
plays. always cofnes to its own. and in
the end Audrey is made happy in the
• love of Haward.
To-raor"iw the special attraction will
be the return engagement of "The Ty
phoon," In which Sussue Hayakwa is
featured. In this production Mr. Hay
akwa is even beter than in "The
Cheat."
