This is Miss Bara's first attempt at writing a moving picture play and those who have heen privileged to witness this production are unani- mous in their praise of her maiden ef- fort. The story tells of a beautiful half caste East Indian girl, Bavahari, who renounces her oath as a sacred danc- ing girl dedicated to the worship of the God Buddha thereby incurring the displeasure of the High Priest who vows vengeance. After marrying a titled English army officer, the former dancing girl leaves for Paris where she makes a sensation as a dancer. Deserting her husband for the stage she gets ready to make her debut. On the eve of her triumph her husband seeking a reconciliation kills himself at his wife's feet. The High Priest, finding the former novitiate in Paris, dis- guises himself as a Buddha idol, and as Bavahari performs her dance on the stage, he comes to life and kills her before the audience.

Well, it is guaranteed to perform miracles if you could be- lieve these hot water enthusiasts. There are vast numbers of men and women who, immediately upon arising in the morning, drink a ass of real hot water with a teaspoonfi of limestone phosphate in it. Th a very excellent health measure. It is intended to flush the stomach, liver, kidneys and the thirty feet of intes- tines of the previous day's waste, sour bile and indigestible material left over in the body which if not elim- inated every day, become food for the millions of bacteria which infest the bowels, the quick result is poisons and toxins which are then absorbed into the blood causing headache, bii- fous attacks, foul breath, bad taste, colds, stomach trouble, kidney misery, sleeplessness, impure blood and all sorts of ailments. People who feel good one day and badly the next, but who simply can not get feeling right are urged to ob- tain a quarter pound of limestone phosphate at the drug store. This will cost very little but is sufficient to make anyone a real crank on the subject of internal sanitation. Just as soap and hot water act on the skin, cleansing, sweetening and freshening, so limestone phosphate | and hot water act on the stomach liver, kidneys and howels. It is vast- ly more important to bathe on the inside than on the outside, because the skin pores do not absorb impuri- ties into the blood, while the bowel of vampire roles at Fox's theater to- | TODAY AND TOMORROW | | with pores do.
