Charles E. Barker delivering an ad dress at 7:30 P. M. Tuesday. “Rupert of Hentzau" is hailed ai a hurricane of thrills and moments of suspense. The story in itself is j a thrill a minute, but in the screen i adaptation the imagination does not i have to be stretched at any time as the portrayal of the principals coupi- i cd with the direction leaves nothing to he desired from a thrill stand-1 point. It is said to be • guaranteed I to keep even the most blase on the edge of their seats through every I foot of the film. The public have become so fed up on so-called all-star casts that they could hardly be blamed for being skeptical every time they hear the word used, but a very pleas-1 ant surprise awaits them in "Rup- 1 ert of Hentzau,” as each of th■■ I principals have actually been starr ed in numerous productions. Includ ed in the galaxy of stars are Elaine Kammerstein,’• Bert Lytell, Lew Cody, Claire Windsor, Hobart Bos worth, Bryan Washburn. Marjorie Daw and numerous others. On the program with "Rupert of "Hentzau” is a Christie comedy, ‘Front.” RYLANDER TO HAVE PICTURE MATINEE ONLY TUESDAY Owing to the fact that Dr. Charles E.

Expose Is Shown In Picture While statesmen falter in their I efforts to bring the dope menac •to an irreduible minimum, and re form bodies appoint investigating ! committees to do lots and lots of talking, a moving picture appears on the screens of the country’s lead i ing theaters, which places square lly before the eyes of the world a I truthful presentation of the facts. It will be shown at the Rylander ! next Wednesday with a two-reel comedy, “Hanging Around.” | "Human Wreckage,” Mrs. Reid's I denunication of the dope evil, 'should do more than ail the tons of I printed matter, speeches, editorials, [t nd committees that have been i brought forth since the question I became a live issue. Because it is authentic in every | detail, because it is masterfully handled by writer, director and com pany, and because it is made by a ; woman whose chiefest motive in ’ making it was an unselfish one, the picture should be the most convinc- F ing preachment ever delivered on the subject., according to critics. "Human Wreckage” is not a story lof Wallace Raid's own life, though it is his spirit will h actuated the production of this, the greatest mor al play eve. conceived. The story itself was constructed, not for the purpose of reproducing the life of any individual, but v.,- rather plan ned to put over ov. forcefully as many salient truths . could be log ically included in a compact film, without injuring it:- value as enter tainment. The play is entertaining—not in a light, frothy soit of way, to be sure, but in its power to absorb, to move, to teach. It has been found, in observing popular !■ action to the so-called film magazines, in which the realms of science and modern thought are pictorially exploded, that people are most entertained when'they gather new information. On this principal, then, "Hunt’an \\ reckage ’ should be extremely en tertaining, for it does instruct. ' The tacts which it presents in many lines of endeavor—medical, political and social. The cast includes Mrs. Wallace Reid, James Kirkwood, B< . ie Love, George Hackathorne, Harry North tup, Eric Mayne, Victory Bate man Robert McKim, ClaireMcDowell Lucile Ricksen Otto Hoffman I-hiii r Sleeman and* George Clark. Ji’CKIF MM BMffi OLD MS “Long Live the King” Presents Star in His Most Pretentious Picture ‘‘Genius wrote a prominent cri tic recently, “is an innate gift of the gods.” Talent is the ability to use that gift or the lesser advantages vouchsafed to’the particular individ ual. Seldom does one person have both, but Jackie Coogan comes in this select class. The true artist not only pos sesses both genius and talent; he is also marked by an ability to trans cend the average limitation. In oth er words the great actor* is not just a comedian or a tragedian or a type of --..e sort or another. And so it seems with Jackie. De spite his eight and a half years, there seems to be no situation, no emotion' which he cannot grasp and having grasped, portrayed in such fashion that it will ring the an swering note in the hearts of those who watch him on the screen. "Long Live the King,” his latest feature picture, which is a com ing attraction at the Rylander, re veals Jackie at the zenith of his powers in a delightfully romantic story by the supreme spinner of romantic tales. Even without its star, “Long Live the King”’ would rank high as a cinematic achieve ment. With Jackie Coogan, it achieves distinction as a film mas terpiece, according to those who have seen it at other points. Clean Kidneys By Drinking Lots of Water ' Take Salts to Flush Kidneys if Bladder Bothers or Back Hurts Eating too much rich food may pro duce kidney trouble in some form, says a well-known authority, because the acids created excite the kidneys. Then they become overworked, get sluggish, clog up and cause all sorts of distress, ' particularly backache and misery in the kidney region, rheumatic twinges, severe headaches, acid stomach, constipation, torpid liver, sleeplessness, bladder and urinary irritation. The moment vour back hurts or kid neys aren’t acting right, or if bladder bothers you, begin drinking lots of good water anti also get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any good pharmacy; take a table-spoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for years to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to activity; also to neutralize the acids in the system so that they no longer irritate, thus often relieving blad der disorders. Jad Salts can not injure anyone; makes a delightful ‘effervescent lithia water drink which millions of men and worn n.take now and*thcn to help keep the kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus often avoiding .serious kidney dis orders By all means have your physi cian examine your kidneys at least twice a year. « THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER PW NEGRI UffflK | 111 Ml IM' i Dramatic and Thrilling, Eeau- I tifui and Delightful is Star's New Picture Tola Negri is admittedly one ot I the foremost screen stars in the i world.
