Russian Dancing Troupe With Maslcal and Other Nnmberi Make Up Satisfying Bill. Living, breathing and radiating the spirit or tne masters wno created the paintings they represent, Vlnas' pictures are this week s chief attraction at the Empress Theater. Nine gorgeous and famous masterpieces, replicas of the originals, with rare lighting effects and a galaxy of beautiful women, per fect in figure and face, are the products of the genius and artistry of Mr. Vinas, farmerly a portrait painter. From the "Angelus" to "The Birth of the Amer ican Flag," there is not one of the groupings lacking In Idea, artistry or realism. The collection includes remarkable productions of "September Morn," "The Angelus." "Polar Star." "The Dutch Flower Girl," "Ruth and Naomi." 'Sanc tuary,' "rtock of Ages." "The Birth of the American Flag" and "Love's Dream. Detail, In costume, pose, background and properties is admir ably observed. A troupe of vigorous Russian danc ers. the Zeganoffs, are six fascinating terpstcnoreans in gorgeous costumes, with a number of significant and dash ing folk dances that savor strongly of the emotional and almost wild nature of the people. A bit of music is added to the act. The Orpheus Comedy Four, biled as the "different quartet," takes the house by storm with a number of happy and original "stunts," and com plete their act with an excruciatingly funny impersonation of an "old maid" and three other "females." "His Awful Nightmare" is a clever playlet, in which the hero falls asleep on the eve of his nuptials and dreams that he is wedded to a Japanese, a Spaniard and a German peasant girl. Bessie Clifton is the pretty young crea ture who plays all three, and ends up by becoming his real sweatheart. Evelyn Dare, she of the sweet and lyric soprano voice, is truly a charmer. With an accordion, violin, fun and per sonality. Baker and Janis are fun makers as well as enjoyable musicians. The audience participated in their at tractive act by selecting a number of their songs. A revolving table and a bevy of cunning trained puppies with the aid of a pretty girl have an act of merit and originality styled ::The Cab aret Dogs." HORSE SHOWS SURPRISE OLD " BALDYi" AT BAKER THEATER, HAS SHOWMAN'S INSTINCT. Stase Entrance Conmlses Company When Animal Keeps Eyes Upon HIa FlMt Audience. Talk about horse sense! If ever a horse showed real human understanding1, according- to Walter Gilbert, stage director of the Baker Players, old "Baldy" did when he made his -first entrance yesterday in the opening performance of "The Trail of the Lonesome Pine. And, more than that, he appeared to have imbibed the true showman's instinct. It is a well-known fact that every theatrical manager, upon entering1 a theater where an audience is assem bled, looks first over said audience, even before he glances at the stage. It becomes a habit fixed as the North Star. The average man or woman sel dom gives the remainder of the audi ence a thought. But to get back to the horse. Old "Baldy ' was carefully trained in the way he should make his entrance In the first act with Elizabeth Ross sitting astride him. His lessons took place during the week when the theater was empty, and he became very prof iciit. Yesterday afternoon he came on just the same until he got near the center of the stage, when he happened to no tice the house was full of people. A look of wonder and surprise seemed to come over his kindly face, and, though his legs were kept going on along the trail his eyes were glued to the audience and never left them until Billy Dills pulled his head around to take him on up the mountain. "It was so funny to the company and stage hands that, for b, minute, I thought it was going to break up the show," said Director Gilbert, "though the audience did not notice it in the same way we did who had seen him at rehearsals." 110,000 ACRES ARE OPEN Drawing fop .Fort Berthold Lands to Be at Mlnot December 4.

COMEDIES ' ENLIVEN BILL Majestic Offers Thrilling riot in "The Soul of Broadway" and Elaborate Gowns Featured. "White Pearl" at Peoples. . Testerday the National - opened a four-day run of the great social proD- lem play, "The Miracle of Life." This feature treats of birth limitation and "race suicide." The beauties and at tendant happiness of mother love are pictured, with their reward, while the defeat of Nature's purpose is shown to react with heavv penalties. Miss Margaret Fischer's acting and an unusual scenic effect are worthy of mention. The play Is intense in pathos and exposes popular fallacies in an instructive way. Another feature of the programme is a masterpiece of beauty, a Mutual "See America First" trip to Niagara Falls. A close view of the falls is shown, as also is a trip through the "Cave of the Winds." There is also a clever cartoon comedy of the "Movie Company In Action and "Ethel's Romeoe," another Mutual comedy. Beginning next Sunday the "Big Four" productions will be shown at the National. Car Held to Let Passengers Settle Dispute With Fists. OMislms Mount Scott Line Con ductor Then Leta Tkem Aboard and Rings Bell. THREE-ROUND fights while you wait may become a regular fea ture of seeing'-Portland trips if an experiment tried out on a Mount Scott car Saturday night is considered a success. For 10 minutes the last -regular car to leave town, departing at 12:30 o'clock, was held at East Forty-eighth stseet by an obliging, conductor while four or five passengers engaged in a free-for-all on the corner. When the melee was over and everybody was perfectly satisfied the belligerents re entered the car, the conductor gave two rints and all was quiet, except for the post-mortem comment by the spec tators. Nobody seemed to know what the row was about except the fighters themselves. A controversy had begun about the time the car crossed the river. It grew hotter each, block, and as East Forty-eighth was approached the case had gone beyond all hope of arbitration or mediation. It was then that the war party considerately left the car, and the conductor no less considerately waited while they fought it out. All of the passengers seemed to en joy the bout, but one of them was curious. "What is it all about?" he asked the conductor. "Don't know," was the reply. "Why are you holding the car?" "Whai's it to you? Perhaps you'd like some of that yourself?" But the inquisitive passenger was a pacificist, so the second war cloud blew over.

Any delay in this process means that poisons accumulate and are ab sorbed into the blood. If constipation is getting even a little grip on you if you are having to resort more frequently to habit-forming laxative drugs you are in need of Nujol. Nujol is odorless and tasteless, absolutely neutral, and is not digested or absorbed into the system. It acts merely as a mechanical lubricant. Nujol is not a drug. Its use will not givequick, temporary relief. But Nujol is a genuine remedy in that it relieves constipation in the most natural way by lubricat ing the lining of the intestines, softening the intestinal contents, and thus promoting healthy and normal bowel activity. Write for 'The Rational Treat ment of Constipation, an informative treatise on constipa tion. If you cannot get Nujol from your druggist, we will send you a pint bottle prepaid to any point in the United States on receipt of 75c money order or stamps.
