and a warm night's sleep are valuable
precautions against grippe and colds.
To get the best effects, be sure the
watrr is piping hot, and use Sunkist
lemons, one for each glassful.

Uniformly Good Lemons
When you order lemons, ask (or Sunkist,
the uniformly ko1 California lemons.
Sunkist are way, lart and juicy. See that
they reach you in the clean, crisp tissue
wrappers stamped "Sunkist." They will
slay fresh much longer if
you leave them in these
wrappers until you use
them. Always have at
least a half doien in the

"OLIVER TWIST"
Lanky Production of Dickens Story
.Marked by Splendid Characteriza
tion and Staging Reviewed by Goo.
Blaisdell in 'Moving Picture World
Lasky's production of "Oliver
Twist" that will be shown at the Ai-
cade theater today and tomorrow
an unusual picture. 'Its making has
been accomplisncd with a care, a fi
delity,, in keeping with the fame ot
the Dickens masterpiece. As Oliver,
the pathetic figure of childhood, there
is Marie Doro. Even more, in the role
of Bill Sikes- there is Hobart Bos-
worth; in that of Fagin there is Tully
ftfliirshall. The picture well mignt
have been built around either of theja
two men. Tho characterization of
either of these was a show of and by
itself. And there were a halfdozen
others selected with fine regard fnv
their powers of convincing portrayal
of the quaint Dickens types some
lovable, some brutal. Here we see the
Artful Dodger, Mr. Brownlow, Nancy
Sikes, Mr. Bumble and Monks in the
garb and in the surroundings in which
we have visualized them.
Miss Doro in her impersonation of
I tho name role deserves high praise for
her portrayal of the boy Oliver. She
j imbues him with the spirit of the
j book, us well as that need bo expected
of Olio playing a role of opposite sex.
Come now to Mr. Bosworth's Bill
' e:i. Ttni.a ic n fiffnvo fo coniure
with. Big, brutal, submerging self in
the part of the worst of the denizens
of London's unspeakr.blo slums of the
early 19th century, he goes his way
through life. He shows us a man
without a redeeming trait, unless it
be the fact that he docs not abuse his
dog. His ending is as dramatic as nis
life has been low. One ot the incidents
of tho story comes when Bill, with a
rone around his body, starts to slide
over the edge of the roof to his acci-
dental death in midair, the rope
caught about his neck. Quick as a
flash the dog starts to follow him,
sliding rapidly from the ridgepole to
the edge and stopping short at the
gutter.
And Tully Marshall's Fagin. The
player quickens into life the thiev
ing old miser, whose fiction name hasj
been applied to all preceptors of
young crooks for nearly a hundred
years and in all likelihood XV' ill serve
for all time. His performance furs
nishes a rare treat. Raymond Hatton
is the Artful Dodger, James Neill is
Mr. Brownlow, Elsie Jane Wilson is
Nancy, Harry P-tittenbury is Mr.
Bumble, and Carl Stockdale is Monks.
All of these finely supplement the

Crymes, local missionary, the public

others, Schaff'3 Bible dictionary, a

taries on the New Testament; "Ori
entalisms in Bible Lands," by the
same author; "History of the Interna
tional Lesson System," and "Rurual
Christendom," by Charles Roads. A
complete list of these books may be

When You Have a Cold. -It
is when you have a severe cold
that you appreciate the good qualities
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Mrs.
Frank Crocker, Pana, 111., -writes:
"Our five-year-old son Paul caught a
severe cold last winter that settled oa
his lungs and he had terrible cough
ing spells. We were greatly worried
about him as the medicine we gave
him did not help him in the least. A
neighbor spoke so highly of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy that 1 got a bot
tle of it. The first dose benefitted
him so much that I continued giving
it to him until he was cured."
W. M. Kennada, machinist handy
man in the local O-W. R. & N. com
pany, has been mentioned by the
Safety First commission of the rail
road for offering five Safety First
suggestions last year.
A Hint to the Aged.
If people past sixty years of acre
could be persuaded to go to bedas
soon as they take cold and remain in
bed for one or two days, thev would
recover much more quickly, especially
if they take Chamberlain's Conirii
Remedy. There would also be less
danger of the cold being followed by
any of the more serious diseases.
