an hour of mirthful
! entertainment. Miss Fremont Benton
; and her capable company are the fea
ture attraction of the park bill in the
sketch, "Handkerchief No. 15," which
depends on its far-fetched fun, on the
circumstance that a married man pre
sented a strange young woman with
his handkerchief bearing his name
and address, and it occasions domestic
complications which lead to a series
of impossible troubles. Frank Moore
and Kitty Sterling were in high favor
with the park audience in "Bits of
Musical Conifedy;" Veronica and Hurl
Fails in their acrobatic novelty. "By
the Sea;" a' charming young lady
billed as "The Tetrazeinne of Vaude
ville," and As-Ro-Mon, one of the few
American Indians in vaudeville, were
pleasing features of the show at Pax

comedy. "Oh, Charmed." affords pleas
ing entertainment. The company num

son with his dancing is a popular
number on the bill. Inman and Lyons
hand out a line of rapid-tire conversa
tion; Day and Neville are a young
couple who introduce a series of
pleasing song and dance specialties,
|and the Beaudoins offer a variety
turn that consists of some clever
bicycling, gymnastics and juggling.
HERE'S THE ANSWER TO
THE WOMAN IN THE MOON
Do you believe Norma Talmadge
has a lace that resembles the woman
in the moon? Well, she has. That is
the reason her director selected iter
as the star for "The New Moon." her
latest photoplay release which played
to capacity audiences at the Colonial
theater yesterday. This picture plays
to-day and to-morrow. Another fea
ture about this picture, besides the
superb acting. Natalie Talmadge,
youngest sister of the famous star, is
playing. This is the first time the
sisters have appeared together in
films.
Thursday, Friday and Saturday of
this week Geraldine Farrar will be
shown in "The Stronger Vow." Alice.
Bradv will soon be shown in "Red
ittfad," another appealing picture
produced by this popular screen
artist.
i no YOU I,IKE THE
NORTHWEST LANDSf
If you like a corking good story of
the Northwest, of its pine forests, and
people, so old-fashioned and yet so
true, to-day is your last chance to
see one of the best of these pictures
entitled "Children of Banishment,
featuring Mitchell Lewis. This pic
ture plaved to large audiences at the
Vietoria'theater yesterday
To-morrow red-blooded Tom Mix
will be shown in his newest picture,
"The Coming of the Law." In this
picture Tom is a tenderfoot. He gets
into trouble with several dangerous
characters, they carry guns. Tom
doesn't. See which one gets the best
of the battle. But that is not all of
this picture —not bv a long shot—that
is morelv one of the n.lnor incidents.

"Motive Power" is the right mon-l
iker for a bunch of heavy-weight
ball tossers who decimated the West |
End team list evening at the Fourth
and Seneca street park before a
crowd so multitudinous that the
steel cable which pioiects the Held
nearly gave way. Umpire Jackson.
' who has been having trouble holding
jto his shin pads, appeared with only
|one in this game, and superstitious]
| fans accused him of putting a Jinx I
on the West End, who arc now tied
for first place in the league, instead j
jof gayly sailing the front.
The fans got so jazzed up before
the battle ceased, after seven ses
sions. and the score 6-1. that Edgar
B. Da Kuc, separated himself from a
tine, up-to-date bicycle in order to
get closer to the melee, and to-day
he reported that some other fan took
a fancy to the said wheel and has
not yet returned it. Even this, how
ever, did not seem to dampen the
ardor of Rooter Laßue, who said
that with Buck Ramsey, Strieker,
Howe and all that bunch, the Motive
Power might as well be in the big
leagues, and he vowed it could beat
any team'in the State.
Ramsey was there with everything
and West End only collected four
hits, while Strieker pitched a game
which puzzled the fans. He would
put over a cauple strikes and a ball
or so on a batter and then ease up
and toss one which the batter usu
ally cremated for a safe wallop. At
these crises the party or "nuts" who
make music with their calliope
showed their feeling in harsh melo
dy.
It was a game of many spectacular
features. Bill Euker starred bril
liantly by cutting off more runs with
his peg to the home plate when the
bases were jammed. Knight was a
regular big leaguer back -of the
plate; looked like Frank Bowerman
in his palmy days. His three base
clout scored the West-. End one run.
When Howe got stranded at third,
no one having the wallop to bring
him home, many wept. Isaiah Reese,
foreman of Round House No. 2, is
said to have swallowed the butt of
his ten-cent cigar in the agony.
Buck Ramsey, too, had a tough
deal, being forced at third where he
was placidly waiting to trot home
when an ambitious runner ttchind
tried to occupy the sack. About half
the West End team concentrated on
running down the unfortunate Ram
sey. During the game s9l was col
lected for Hippensteel, regular
catcher for Motive Power, now in
the Harrisburg Hospital, recovering
from an operation for appendic'tis.

! HOW TO BE RID OF
DANGEROUS DANDRUFF
If you have dandrufT you must get
rid of It quick—it's positively dan-
J gerous and will surely ruin your
■ hair if you don't.
Dandruff heads mean faded, brlt
[ tie, scragglv hair that finally dies
. and falls out—new hair will not
. grow—then you are hairless and
I nothing can help you.
The only sure way to abolish
i dandruff for good is to destroy the
germ that causes it. To do this
• quickly, surely und safely, and at
little expense, there is nothing so
| effective as Parisian cage, which
1 you can get from Kennedy's and
■ good druggists everywhere. It •is
guaranteed to banish dandruff, stop
itching scalp and falling hair, and
[ promote a new growth, or the cost,
i small as it is, will be refunded.
Parisian sagt is a scientific prep
aration that supplies all hair needs
—an antiseptic liquid neither sticky
or greasy, easy to apply, and deli
cately perfumed.
If you want beautiful, soft, thick,
lustrous hair, and lots of it, by all
means use Parisian sage. Don't de
lay—begin to-night—a little atten
tion now insures abundant hair for
years to come.
