16 HOLIDAY CROWDS FILL MAJESTIC Record Attendance at Vaude ville Theater; Clayton a Big Attraction Record crow'ds filled the Majestic yesterday, the management arranging four shows to accommodate the many patrons. It is likely the cool, damp weather kept many away from amusement parks and helped to swell the theater crowds. With the excep tion of Clayton, the Mystic, held over for the entire week, the bill for the last half is an ordinary one. Three Sport*. This trio follow Chaplin in "The Pawnshop." They have some interesting horizontal bar and balancing feats. Ellznbeth Mnyne. Starting with a song about her size, Elizabeth suc ceeds in keeping the audience amused. Her recitative of a man's chances in the war is good. ."Three A. >l." Julia Nash and Charles H. O'Donnel present this skit, which is a fair one for two and bet ter than quite a few similar ones of the .season. Conrad and Mayo. Comedy efforts of these two entertainers proved suc cessful yesterday, and the audiences enjoyed many laughs at the foolish antics of the pair. Clayton. Still answering ques tions, Clayton has the theater folks completely mystified by his powers. Does he actually see in the crystal the questions and answers? That is a query in the minds of many who see him. A student of psychology and the work of the Oriental mystics will find Clayton's introductory state ments highly interesting . MAX ROBERTSON.

S. 1 FRIDAY EVENING, FAMOUS ATHLETES TO BE WITH CIRCUS Art of Self Defense Demon strated by 15-Year-Old Girl, Against Men Powerful athletes from Iceland. Japan, the South Sea Islands and else where promise to be one of the sen sational features of the great strength tournament which is to be given here Tuesday, June 11, as part of Ringling Brothers' circus program. The Mikado has sent his own com ; panies of thirty jiu-jitsu experts to | I demonstrate the wonders of their art. These companies are composed of the Otawaga and the Tamaki champions. They will demonstrate, during the I course of exciting contests and exhi- | bition bouts, the Japanese art of self defense. broad-sword and lance com- I bats and giving amazing exhibitions in wrestling and strangling. The part played by Miss Ai Kishi. a 15-year-old girl with the Tamaki | troupe, has keenly interested Ameri can women. She repulses masculine attacks with knife, tist and club, dem onstrating that a knowledge of jiu jitsu secures feminine immunity from harm by masher and marauder. The early Norseman's method of self-defense will be illustrated by a company of powerful Icelanders head ed by the giant champion. Johannes. He and his followers liave come out of the North to display his champion ship prowess at "glima." the national sport of the Icelanders. "Glima" is a form of wrestling and self-defense practically unknown in this and many other countries, yet has been a sport in Iceland since the elev enth century While similar to the Japanese method of self-defense, known as jiu-jitsu, it is considered vastly superior to the latter. Johan nes lias won the championship of Ice land for two successive years. At the last contest there were twenty-four aspirants for the honor, each had to wrestle all the others and the title j went to the competitor having the highest number of points. Johannes had never once been thrown. He wrestled for six hours and declared at the finish that he did not feel a bit | exhausted. "Glima" makes more de- I mand in the way of training and re quires more spectacular ability and science than any other form of com bat. The Icelander has brought three famous experts with him for his ex hibitions under canvas. He concludes his performance by frustrating the combined attack made upon him by a trio armed with knives, and revolvers. The athletic numbers form but one of scpres of features that make this season's the most remarkable show I the Ftinglings have ever placed on | tour. The colossal spectacle of chiv i airy and knighthood, "In Days of Old." Is said to be the most magnifi cent ever devised. A cast of more than 1,20(1 characters tell the story of Grandma Talks About Babies Has a largaCireleof Listeners Who Prof it by Her Wisdom and Experience. In almost any community there Is a grandma who knows Mother's Friend. Not ! onlv is she reminiscent of her own experl -1 ence, but it was through h-r recommends I tion that so many expectant mothers de ! rived the comfort and blessing of this famous i remedy. Mother's Friend Is an external application prepared especially for expectant mothers ; after the formula of a noted family physl- I clan. It certainly has a wonderful eff*ot in ' relieving tension brought about by expanding muscles, and is a most grateful encourage ment to the woman awaiting motherhood. The action of Mother's Friend makes the muscles free, pliant and resp.-nsive. When baby arrives they expand easily, and pain and danger at the crisis is naturplly less. Strain upon the nerves and ligaments !j I lessened and in place of a period of discoin- I fort and consequent dread, it is a season of calm repose and happy anticipation. Mother's Friend enables the mother to preserve her health and natural grace and | she remains a pretty mother by having I avoided the pain and suffering which mora i often than otherwise accompanies such an j occasion when nature Is unaided. Write the Bradfleld Regulator Co., I Lamar Bldg., Atlanta, Ga., for their "Moth* i erhood Book," so valuable to expectant moth j ers, and in the meantime do not by any I chance fail to purchase a bottle of Mother's Friend from the druggist and thus fortify yourself apalnst pain and discomfort. Moth er's Friend should be applied night ami morning with the utmost resularlty. f VICTORIA TO-DAY ONLY WILLIAM FOX Pr<Mentn (■ I£OR(aK£ WALSH in "BRAVE AND BOLD" SATURDAY ONLY WILLIAM S. lIAKT in "THE DESERT MAN" Monday and Tuesday, June 3-4.

More thrilling than all is the answer to tl# derisive words of the Germans. This is found in pictures of the sol diers of the allied nations and their indomitable courage and bravery. CAPTAIN HA 1/1/S "HIGH ADVEN TURE" NEARLY READY Just as the news came to this country that Captain James.Norman Hall is not dead but badly wounded and a prisoner in a German hospital, the completing chapters of his book, 1 "High Adventure," a Narrative of the Air Fighting in France, were re ceived by his publishers, Houghton AN OLD RECIPE 10 DARKEN HAIR Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns Gray, Faded Hair Dark and Glossy. Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly com pounded, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make It at home, which is mussy and troublesome. Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound." You will get a large bottle of this old time recipe improved by the addition of other Ingredients at very little cost Ev erybody uses this preparation now, because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your haii\ taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound is a delightful toilet requi site. It is not Intended for the cure, mitigation or nrevention of disease. —Adv. f ■ VISIT THE NEW FLOWER STORE Cut Flowers and Potted Plants SPECIAL • PEONIES, 7C Dozen I \ RUTH M.

A new plane, bear ing the number of Captain Hall's wrecked machine, "17," appeared on the American front northwest of Toul.
