"HONEY BOYS"
AT MAJESTIC
Miniature Minstrels Are Popu
t lar; Appeal For Clothing
For Belgians .
The Original Honey Boys and Miss
Florence Timponi held the honors on
the Majestic bill for the last half
of the week. A novelty act and two
fine comedy offerings were heartily
enjoyed. .
The Alvarados—Playing on glasses
of water, these clever actors pre
sented a good musical offering.
"Smiles," the popular waltz closed
their act.
Florence Tim-poni—.Although she
was placed in the second spot. Miss
Timponi quickly made good, singing
a number of new war-time songs
which touched the popular chord.
At the end of her act she appealed
for old clothing for the Belgians.
Honey Boys.—A good minstrel
show in miniature. Several ' solo
numbers were highly appreciated.
The names of the minstrels were not
placed on the program and it is im
possible, therefore, to ' give proper
credit. .
Toney and Norman—A bad. open
ing with the usual flirtation was
overcome by excellent comedy work
in the last part of the act. Fine sing
ing and laughmaking.
Jack and Foris—Comedy tumbling
and semi-acrobatic stunts kept the
audience in an uproar. Many stayed
in their seats until the curtain.
Use McNeil's Pain Exterminator—Ad.
OVERWORKED MAN
Couldn't Get Man to Fill His Place,
Had to Keep On. how He Did It
Saratoga, Cal.—"l am an engineer
and overworked so I could not sleep,
was tired all the time. I could
not get a man to fill my place so had
to keep on working. My druggist
asked me to try Vinol and it built me
up and strengthened me so I feel
fine and sleep all right."—lsaac W.
Bradford.
There is no secret about Vinol. It
owes its success in such cases to
beef and cod liver peptones, iron and
manganese peptonates and glycero
phosphates, the greatest body build
ing and strength creating tonics.
We strongly recommend Vinol.

STRONGER IN
TAKE THE LEAD
They Have Nerves of Iron
and Real Red Fight
ing Blood
Vital force is the material from
wlpch leaders in all walks of life
are made, it is well worth getting
and holding.
The health and nerve of the
athlete is what Nature intended
every man and woman to have.
The blood of an athlete is pure
and red, a strong heart pumps and
drives it through his body. No won
der that every inch of his system is
i filled with energy and health, his
nerves like iron, spirits high, hard
tasks a pleasure and life one song
of Joy.
A leading doctor says, "Everyone
should feel this way. That if you
are not red-blooded, are nervous, all
run down and on your last legs, for
you to build up your blood and
nerves with exercise, fresh air, nour
ishing food and nature's great pre
scription, Phosphated Iron, a real
blood and nerve builder."
Then you will be there with vim
find push to easily do the work that
you now do on your nerves alone.
He also says, "Phosphated Iron
feeds the blood cells with iron and
nerve force, and that leading spe
cialists are now using it successfully
all over the country, that it has
sprung into almost instant popu
larity with the better class of doc
tors as one of the few remedies
they can depend on to produce re
sults."
Special Notice To insure phy
sicians and their parents getting
the genuine Phosphated Iron we put
up in capsules only, so do not allow
dealers to substitute any pills or
tablets.

i COMES TO REGENT
Cecil B. De Millc's. "Till I
Come Back to You"
This Week
The name of Cecil B. De Mille,
the distinguished motion picture pro
ducer, is well known throughput the
amusement world. Mr. De Mille is
a producer of special subjects of
the highest class, on a par with the
great D. W. Griffith. For several
| years he has been making cinema 1
history of great importande. He

r.iiicent spectacle; "The Woman God

Mr. De Mille is a producer of ex
ceptional talent who has made rapid
strides toward absolute perfection
in his recent photoplays. This rep
utation for artistry will in no way
suffer through his latest photoplay,
but on the contrary is a distinct ad
vance in the art of which he is the
master.
"Till I Come Back to You" was
written by one of the best-known
motion picture writers of the day,
Miss Jeanie Macphearson. As a
writer of note, she has a wide exper
ience and a thorough training ard
in this, her latest creation, coupled
with the fact that Mr. De Mille is
the producer, it is said to be an as
sured fact of its huge success.
This picture has been drawing
large audiences in the Largest New
York Photo houses at increased ad
mission. Its production costs thous
ands of dollars, the scene being act
ual ones of tlie suffering and multil
lation of Belgium. In coming to
Harrisburg, movie fans will have the
opportunity of seeing of the great
est spectacles of the day. It will
be the attain attraction at the Regent
Theatre for the first three days of

HAROLD CRANE WITH SOME OF THE "GARDEN OF GIRLS" AND BOYS WITH THE
- ORIGINAL NEW YORK PRINCESS THEATER CAST AT THE TUESDAY NIGHT
Its songs are being sung and w bistled almost everywhere, as they are hummable, whistleable—full of rhythm ad lilting notes. /
"Oh. Boy" will be seen in Harr isburg at the Orpheum Tuesday night at its best, for the original New York production and cast is coming. It includes such Broadway stars 'as
Anna Wheaton. Marie Carroll, Edna May Oliver, Augusta Haviland, Charles Compton, Jack Merritt and others. There will also be the Princess Theater "Garden of Girls." with all /the
charm and enthusiasm of youth. /
but a disease." This computation
marks a tremendous and indecisive
period, when the average youth is
something more than a boy and some
thing less than a man. There is noth
ing harder in experience than to sus
tain the transitory age of 17 with
comity and grace.
This faltering and fluttering <ransi
tion between the natural self-confi
dence of boyhood and the natural self
assertion of young manhood has been
studied with affectionate sympathy
and inspired understanding by Booth
Tarkington in his series ot short
stories devoted to the silly and pre
posterous adventures of William Syl
vanus Baxter—an adolescent youth of
17. Those stories of Mr. Tarkington's
were turned into a play of 'youth and
love and summertime," and the text
of this play was inspired and made
practicable for the stage by Stuart
Walker.
"Seventeen" played for eight solid
months in New York this year to ca
pacity houses and made a fortune for
the producer. Mr. Walker is sending
it here for its local premier at the
Orpheum this evening.
"Oh, Boy," which will be the attrac
tion at the Orpheum next Tuesday
night, is the fourth of a
"Oh, Boy" series of musical suc
cesses from the New York
Princess Theater. The book and lyr
ics are by Guy Bolton and P. G. Wode
house A with music by Jerome Kern.
"Oh, Boy" is aptly described as an in
timate musical comedy and is replete
with tinkling tunes, brilliant repartee,
lovely girls, effervescent with spark
ling enthusiasm arid the beauty of
youth. It differs from that style of
entertainment which America has
come to know as musical comedy, in
asmuch as it carries a real story, the
unfolding of which is not interrupted
by interpolation of songs and dances
—rather the songs and dances serve
to carry the story, each number hav
ing a direct bearing on the play. "Oh,
Boy" played for two years at the
Princess Theater and the same pro
duction and cast, including Anna
Wheaton, Marie Carroll, Edna May
Oliver. Augusta Maviland, Charles
Compton. Harold Crane, Harry Quea
ly, Stephen Maley, Ethel Forde, Helen
Frances, Margaret Mason. "Jack" Raf
fael, Ralph O'Brien, "Jack" Merritt
and others will be seen at the Or

to time of a successful
"The farce called "The Naughty
Naughty Wife," which was written
Wife" by Fred Jackson, well
known as a writer of
farces. As presented under the man
agement of Selwyn and Company it
has scored genuine triumphs in New
Yok, Chicago and Boston, and is now
playing to capacity business at the
Playhouse, London, England.
"The Naughty Wife" will be pre
sented here at the Orpheum Theater
on Wednesday. October 2, for an en
gagement of two performances only,
matinee and night.
The time and the play may well be
noted by those who look to the thea
ters for their entertainment for the
farce is said to be 100 per cent, pure
fun.
Playwrights well know that it is
from the situations they construct
that they secure the best and the most
laughs. "The Naughty Wife" is tilled
with excruciatingly funny moments,
which gain much from their natural
ness. Quite on a par, however, with
all else in the farce is its dialog,
which fairly sparkles from beginning
to end.
In the excellent cast are such well
known people as: Reeva Greenwood,
Belle D'Arcy, Gaston Bell, Frederick
Sumner, Henry Keen, Emile Collins
and several others, almost, if not quite
so well known.
One of the best variety bills of the
season opened a three-day engage
ment at the Majestic
Excellent Bill yesterday with the
at the Majestic Seven Original Honey
Boy Minstrels as the
headliner. This aggregation of sing
ers and comedians put over an act
that proved a solid hit at yesterday's
performances, and the applause that
they received at the close of their of
fering showed how much the audi
ence enjoyed it. From a musical
standpoint, the act is splendid, while
the comedy injected is good for lots of
laughter. The popular favorites,
Toney and Norman, are also included
on the bill, and are offering a little
turn that is brimful of good comedy.
<Both are clever and they put their
material over in a way that leaves
little. If any, room for criticism.
Florence Timponi, young woman of
pleasing appearance, is presenting a
repertoire of songs that are new and
original. The Alvarados, in a musi
cal offering, present an act that is not
only pleasing to the ear, but to the
eye as well. Jack and Floris. in an

To-day and to-morrow, "The Turn
of the Wheel" will be shown at the
Colonial Theater, with
"Turn of Geraldine Fatrar. This
the Wheel" is Miss Farrar's first
ut Colonial appearance as a Gold
wyn star. The story is
of a good man's sacrifice to save his
brother in distress. Sacrifices are
made for love of parents or for the
love of children are common to
the screen, but the love of one brother
for another and the sacrifices made
as a result are something out of the
ordinary. The star enacts the role of
Rosalie Lean, whom the brother meets
at a roulette table in Monte Carlo.
They fall in love, but the brother is
arrested for the murder of his di
vorced wife. How Rosalie solves the
mystery and saves the man she loves
make a most thrilling story.
Manager Magaro, of the Regent
Theater, has booked two strong at
tractions for his
Double Attraction theater for to
ot the Regent day's and to-mor
_ . row's programs.
Dainty Vivian Martin is the star in
the headliner, "Viviette." This story
was written by William J. Locke, the
author of "The Beloved Vagabond,"
and other strong books of fiction. It
is written in his happiest and most
whimsical vein, and its popularity is
evidenced by the sale of repeated edi
tions. The story deals with the love
affairs of a girl who has just return
ed front a boardingschool. She is
loved by three men. Dick Ware, his
brother and Lord Banstead, a young
Englishman. The Englishman is elimi
nated by Dick, who, when he sees his
brother kissing her hand, becomes in
sanely jealous and wants to fight a
duel. The outcome of this duel and
who gets the girl is shown in a series
of highly daramatic scenes.
In addition to this main feature,
one of the best Mack Sennett comedies
to be released, "Her Sqreen Idol," itself
as good as a feature, will be shown.'
