Ga--ien, however, yuu find quite the rot-M beautiful bamboo break of all. 1 va personally con ducted tiii 1 m the pur Sun in fix languages Antonio Gama is the name of my versatile young Erazii'an guide and aside from his native Portuguese he has acquired his knowledge of French, German, Italian, Spanish and English at night school This linguistic abil ity is not uncommon among the am bitious young working men of Brazil. And they are always most polite and J obliging. Just imagine how delight ed we Americans wouia oe 11 our tuu way guards and rtreet ear conductors could even speak English as for their ever being polite and obliging this is too Utopian a dream. In the botanical garden Antonio was always turning over a new leaf and I was alternately presented with one re- and cinnamon. 1 emerged hotelwards 1 clutching a sprig of sensitive plant m one hand and a spray of Young Hyson in the other. Hotelwards for me means to take a trolly in the heart of town and ride for twenty-fh'e minutes and six miles of beautiful views to the Hotel Inter nacional up on the mountains of isn't just a hotel. Its a half way house to heaven- uut 01 my oearoom window is a scene fit for the Gods. Mere humans aren't satisfied with it, however, for with bland disregard for eravitation and danger have airly swunp a cable up to Bear Mountain 1 and from there another to the tiptop of Sugar Loaf mountain, 1400 feet I " right out of the sea to see. If you have the nerve a car on this cable swings yon out over eternity to Sugar Loaf's summit and from there you get a sweet little view.' For still insatiable ones a cog road will give an uplift 2,300 feet to the top of Corcovade, which is good Por tuguese for "Hunchback." Here you have reached the height of perfection in the view line. The Brazilian may agree that you can't improve on nature but his frenzied attempts to at least compete with it are shown in the fan tastic effects of the architecture here. Back to an Italian comparison where we started, you may say, "See Naples and Die," but I suggest. "See Rio and Take a New Lease on Life." ARCADE "The House of the Golden Windows' Cleo Ridgley and Wallace Reid, the brilliant Famous Players-Laisky stars, who have established themselves as the most popular couple on the screen, will be seen at the Arcade tonight in the Jesse L. Lasky production of "The House of the Golden Windows," written especially for them by Charles Sarver from the story by L. V. Jeffer son. It is a Paramount picture. Having made their co-starring de but m that masterly photodrama "The Golden Chance," Cleo Ridgley and Wallace Reid have endeared them selves in tbe hearts of the photodra matie audiences. Their youth, per sonality and splendid dramatic abil ity are most appealim?.' "The House of the Golden Win dows," is founded on the old fairy tale of how two children living in a hut in the valley, see a beautiful house on THE PERFECT CUM Let us make you acquainted with the new, luscious flavor the hill with golden windows. They decided to leave their own home, and struggle through the woods aind brambles until they reached the top of the hill, and they find the big build ing to 'be nothing but a ramshackle old dwelling with the sunlight making the windows appear as if they were made of gold. When they look back down into tbe distance, they see that the golden windows are in their own home as well. The modern version ol this story is laid among the green fielas of Cali fornia and tells the story of Tom and Sue Wells struggling for riches, and how Sue goes in search of the house on the hill only to find that her own little shack has windows of gold. The deft way in wnicn this story is shown on the screen is new even for Latky productions and is told in a manner that grips the attention of the audience throughout. The cast supporting the two stars includes James Neil), Mabel Van Buren, Bob Fleming, Margery Daw and Little Billy Jacobs. xhe photography and settings are ot tne well-Known Lasky excellence.

Rio De Janiero, Brazil, Sept. 6 (By Mail) The bay of Naples may brasr I of its necklace of diamonds but in the i harbor of Rio tie Janeiro at night the iiuy is belted with diamonds and isugar lyjuf mountain even boasts of a tiara. Electric lights p.re really superfluous as first aids to beauty here. Even the roseate splendor of a sun swim ing in a crimson si-a, the gold efful gence of a harvest moon or the gleam of a myriad tropic stars can enhance no further the already exquisite charm of this South American Dream City. With a lavish and partial hand na ture has poured all her splendors at Rio's feet. Colorful mcunUiins of rock juts abruptly out of a sapphire sea whoso waves kiss sands as white as alaba-'.cr.
