TWENTY THOUSAND LEAGUES
UNDER THE SEA" OS A
WONDERFUL PICTURE.
Glimpses of Life Under the Sea, the
Pictures of the Submarines Make
One Realize the Wonders of the
U-Boats Now Terrorizing Two Continents.
When Jules Verne charmed the
youth of two worlds with his fantas
tis and imaginary tales of a kingdom
underneath the sea it was presumed
he had no idea his own fairy creation
ever would or could be visualized. His
fascinated readers dreamed of heroes
like the dauntless Captain Nemo, but
their wildest flights of fancy did not
permit them to hold any hope of see
ing their beloved fiction characters
alive and really existing underneath.
All things aside from the genuine
enjoyment of this undersea drama
have combined to make "Twenty
Thousand Leagues Under the Sea" a
timely motion picture of the year.
First, the European war, which has
made the invention of submarines a
subject of paramount interest, fol
lowed by other sea adventures un
paralleled in history, and then the
depredations of U-63 within the last
few days upon our own coast.
The submarine in the picture
brings home the terror to the civ
ilized world of a pitiless sea mon
ster. After vessels have been at
tacked without mercy in midsea, the
United States sends a boat in search
of this beast of the ocean. It is dur
ing the civil war, and the good ship
which carries these brave men is the
Abraham Lincoln.
After their capture by Captain
Nemo and their imprisonment on the
submarine, the wonders of the sea are
presented in a lavish manner. The
mnrino gardens, sharks, an octopus
and other marvelous things that here
tofore have existed for us only in fic
tion are conjured upon a screen, and
we gaze appalled at things which
Captain Nemo tells us God never
meant man to see.
' ford a chance for the inimitable
touches of humor and real boy-life of
which he is past master. Those who
!saw him as "William," hero of the
photoplay adaptation of Booth Tark
ingtoit's celebrated novel "Seventeen"
and as "Pip" in Dickens' "Great Ex
pectations," remember his work with
pleasure, and in "The Dummy" he
has excelled even these records.
Suppose you were a small boy ex
ceedingly fond of detective stories, so
fond, in fact, 'that the people for
I whom you worked decided that you
cared more about detectives than you
did for working and showed you
the door, i If there, when you were
out of work and not very sure of the
next bite to eat, you had a chance to
work for a real, sure 'nuff detective
what would you do ?
You'd probably do just what Jack
Pickford does in "The Dummy."
Don't miss it! Tuesday only.
Whatever faults of construction
there may be in this eight-reel sub
marine drama, or whatever lapses in
production, everything is quite for
gotten in the thrill of peeping be
neath the water. Children whoso
imaginations still run riot without the
curb of bitter reality will adore this
fairy moving picture. Grown chil
dren who love to let their fancy roam
whenever it is possible will also take
the adventurous and brave Captain
Nemo to their hearts.
"Twenty Thousand Leagues Under
the Sen" is a drama of the sea rather
than a drama of people. The actors,
it is true, figure prominently. Allen
Holubar is Captain Nemo, Jane Gail
the child of Prince Danker the mys
terious child of nature whose identity
is kept a secret until the end of the
chapter nnd Matthew Moore as Cap
tain Bond. Allen Holubar makes the
old sea pirate a remarkable charac
ter study. Matthew Moore registers
quite apart from his two brothers,
Tom and Owen, but it is the revela
tion the sea brings to us that fills
the mind and crowds Into the back
ground the players.
The proper food for one may be all
wrong for another. Every one should
adopt a diet suited to his age and oc
cupation. Those who have weak stom
achs need to be especially careful and
should eat slowly and masticate their
food thoroughly. It is also important
that they keep their bowels regular.
When they become constipated or
when they feel dull and stupid after
eating, they should take Chamber
lain's Tablets to strengthen the stom
ach and move the bowels. They are
easy to take and pleasant in effect.

Best Remedy for Wnooping Cough
"Last winter when my little boy had
the whooping cough I gave him Chnm
berlain's Cough Remedy," writes Mrs.
J. B. Roberta, East St. Louis, 111. "It
kept his cough loose and relieved him
of those dreadful coughing spells. It
is the only cough medicine I keep in
the house because I have the most
confidence in it." This remedy is also
good for colds and croup. Adv.
