Tonight is the last showing at the Palace of “Manhandled” with Glorla Swanson, a fine photoplay With Gloria in her greatest character role. Of speclal interest in the photoplay is the appearance of Ann Penning- ton, the famous Follies dancer, and Brooke Johns, the famous Broadway orchestra leader.

In breaking this mirror with his first Mr., Meighan took the chance of a disfigurement that might have caused the end of his screen career. It sg happened that he culy caused a severe cut on his right thumh and several bad scratches on his hand. When he smashed the glass, bits of it flew in all directions but luckily none of them struck him in the face. = Starting Monday for six days, Norma Talmadge will appear in *'Se- crets,” i Epidemic of Sleeping Sickness Is Unabated London, Sept. 3.—The epidemic of sleeping sickness which began in Iingland and Wales at the beginning of the vear shows little sign of abat- ing and its seriousness has been brought home to everybody by the deaths of several well known per- sons, among whom was one of Eng- land's crack footballers.
