REX TONIGHT, : Tonight at the Rex will be seen Norma Talmadge in her latest Select Pictures production, ‘“Her Only Way;" presented by Joseph Schenk. Lucille Westbrook (Norma Tal- madge) in vain tries to- solve her problem, but when Jo Marshall (Eu- gene O’Brien) bitterly tells her that her love of luxury stands between them, she tells him that she will marry * Paul Belmont, the wealthy man. After the wedding, Lucille is the neglected wife and finally her hus- band declares his intention of divore- ing her for the sake of a society vam- pire, Mrs. Randolph, whose name has long been connected with his. Disgusted with life, Lucille decides to end it all, and after killing Bel- mont, shoots herself. When Belmont arrives for his an- swer, his ring awakens the girl who has fallen asleep in her chair and has dreamed the story. Awake at last, Lucille tells Jo that he has always been the one. There will also be an Alice Howell comedy. The management of the Rex thea- ter has made a special effort to pro- vide a Christmas bill, of the spirit of the day and the times. The big film “Lafayette, We Come" based on the utterance of General Pershing at the tomb of the great Lafayette when he arrived in Paris to lead the Amer- icans in the great war. This spectacle is not a generally accepted war film. It shows no scenes to deaden the spirit of the day. DAMP. CHANGING WEATHER Brines its Toll of Sickness to Be- midii Peonle. Chilly, damp, changing weather is hard on the kidneys. Even more irritating are colds, grip and pneumonia; They congest the kidneys; They bring backache and dis- ordered kidney action. For weak kidneys use a tested rem- edy. Bemidji people recommend Doan's Kidney Pills. 1 ‘Wm. Barnes, foreman in saw mills, 316 American St., Bemidji, says: ‘“‘About a year ago I took cold; it settled on my kidneys and caused e a lot of annoyance. My kidnéys acted too freely. I had pains across the small of my back and it was hard for me to keep going, I was so lame. I'got a box of Doan’s Kidney Pills and was cured of the trouble. I have never been bothered since.” Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Barnes had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfgrs., Buffalo, N. Y. POSITIVELY RELIEVES " CONSTIPATION Constipation causes poor appe- tite, indigestion, headaches, biliousness and more serious disedses. Hollister's Rocky Mountain Tea is a sure remedy for constipation. These won- derful herbs have long been famous for quick and positive results. By restoring normal bowel action, you will gain color, weight and youthful en- ergy. Take tonight—tomor- row feel right.
