Quality and Service
of change in the various cafes and
restaurants while her father squand
ered most of her earnings as well as
his own, on drink. Uneducated, with
no refinement of taste and with only
a beautifully moulded face to differ
entiate her from the other flower
girls, and only scenes of strifo and
turmoil to look back upon when en
tering the miserable place that was
homo to her, it is small wonder that
she seized the first opportunity to
live more luxuriously and failed to
weigh the cost of her action.
"We cannot ixpect a girl who was
brought up in such an environment as
that to develop any great refinement
of taste and as a matter of fact,
Sanho does not. It is only that she
craves luxury to a greater and great
er degree and it is this love of the
beautiful and craving for amusement
that lead her farther and farther
afield. Never having been taught
right and wrong,' sho fails to realize
that there is of necessity a barrier
between her and the height of her
ambitions.
"What we have tried to do in this
production, is to catch the spirit of
the real Sapho of whom there are
thousands in real life and put it on
tho screen. There are many dis
crepancies between this story and the
original, but this was necessary in
order to avoid the over-realistic ef
fect of the French original and also
to avoid the depressing effect of the
unhappy ending. That is why the
'Sapho' of the screen will be a dif
ferent one from tho book or play,
while at the same time, wo hope we
have caught the spirit of this cele
brated French girl."
"Sapho" is the Paramount picture
at the Arcade theatre Friday and
Saturday of this week.

PAULINE FREDERICK I N
"SAPHO" FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.
In speaking of the adaptation of
Daudet's internationally famous
story "Sapho," which he directed re-,
cently for the Famous Players, with
beautiful Pauline Frederick in the
title role, Hugh Ford said: "In treat
ing the very interesting story of
'Sapho,' we have tried to show cause
and effect it is not enough to know
that Sapho led a very picturesque
life, we must know why she did so.
and .by glimpsing her early life we
soon see the answer to our question.
Before she became famous as Sapho,
this girl was Fanny Legrand, the
daughter of a disreputable coachman,
and a typical flower-girl in the
streets of Paris, picking up odd bits
Here is the girl's own story: "For
years I had dyspepsia, sour stomach
and constipation. I drank hot water
and olive oil by the gallon. Notning
helped until I tried buckthorn bark,
glycerine, etc., as mixed in Adler-i-ka.
One spoonful helped me instantly."
'Because Adler-i-ka flushes the entire
: alimentary tract it relieves any case
of constipation, sour stomach or gas
and prevents appendicitis. It has
quickest action of anything we ever
sold. Putman Drug Store.
