ORHPEUM TONIGHT “What Was Secret of First Woman?” Petrova Play Answers Question. “What was the secret of the first woman?” * This all-important question is an- swered in the Metro-Popular plays and players production, “The Secret of (Eve,” which will be seen at the Or- pheum the ater tonight only with the gifted Mme. Petrova as the star. Perry Vekroff directed this five part Metro wonderplay, which is from the pen of Aaron Hoffman, author of many suc- cesses. “The Secret of Eve" shows how in every period of the world’s history, men and women have occupied thetr minds with the fevered pursuit after selfish happiness, and the secret Eve Brandon discovers is—what? See the play and find the answer. “The Se- cret of Eve” is a vital, absorbing pho- to play, full of dramatic incident. Ad- ded to this it has true spiritual up- lift. ‘Marguerite Clark at the Bismarck theater tonight. Nature Smiles on Malaga. Malaga is perhaps the oldest of Spanish cities. Certainly she is in many ways the fairest of them all. If ever there was a lotus land, it is here, The rich earth is fairly bursting with fertility, hidden under a wealth of semi-tropiaal vegetation, with here and there the green vine hills that bear the grapes for which Malaga is known all over the world. There are flowers, too, great, gaudy blooms, that go with the South sea appearance of the aloes and palmettoes and palms. In a word, Malaga is.a city where nature smiles, Sometimes a year will go by there without seven cloudy days. _ -_ New Idea of Primitive Man. A new idea “of primitive man was put forward by -an Irish’ professor re- cently. He states that the direct an- cestors of primitive man never went on, all-fours, had lived in trees, and, by climbing up and down the trunks, cultivated the upfight habit of the hu- man race. He points out that ‘the fore- limb was:never used onlyias’d sup- port for the body...It seems .quite credible, however, that they may have gone on three legs, using one as a hand when required, and this might account for the general use of the right hand in man.
