' Ethel Clayton's next play for World Pictures is due to be published late in September. It ia called "The Woman Beneath," and the heroine is a society butterfly till the pinch comes, when she turns out to be true blue. There is some, unusually clever comedy in this piece, to offset the powerful dramatic situations. Dustln Farnura is the living proof that one desn't have to be a Westerner to be a cowboy. He was born and reared in Lev: Englr.nd. But he is one of the most fearless horsemen in the country, as his work in the William Fox production. "Durand of the Bad Lands," will prove. Vola Vale is the latest member of filmdom to don the wide sombero and do "westerns." Miss Vale's first ap pearance in such a role will be op posite Charlie Ray in his first Art craft release now in the process of production at the Thomas H. Ince studios. George Fisher Is the newest member of the Shooters' Club at Santa Bar bara, which has organize for weekly practice in anticipation of the duck season. Tr. club comprises exclusive' ly members of the American Film studio. "The Marriage Market," shortly to be published by World Pictures Brady made, will nava one of those star cast for which this producing concern has become well known. This will lnclud Carlylo Blackwell, June Elvidge, Arthur Ashley and other very, .well-known players. The play is adapted from widely - circulated novel published under another title. "Jack" Vosburgh, who wU be seen in an important characterization in "Southe.-i Pride," the coming American issue, has Joined up with the newly organized California Artille Corps. Stiles Dickenson's contribution understood-in-advance success of : Geraldine Farrar multiple-reel pictu: now in production at the Lasky studio is the large portrait of Miss Farrar in a costume comprising a fascinating blending of barbaric colors. This pic ture, as copied in lithographs and spe cial posters, will provide the new Far rar screen-play with perhaps the most artistic paper" that the film world has seen to date. George Fisher, who plays leads for the American, was putting makeup on for a scene In "The Sea Master," of future issue, when the omnipresent kid shouted to his mother: "Ma. that man has hurted himself. See. he's putting salve on his face!" But proof that the kid was wrong- and that George re tains his manly beauty is found not only in the foregoing explanation, but also in the fact that in Seattle some of his girl Infatuates have named some sort of a club in his honor. The gowns Gail Kane, the American star, wore in the current production of "Souls in Pawn" are to b: sold to the highest bidders at a Red Cross bazaar in Santa Barbara. Miss Kane is now in San Francisco keeping dates with mcdistes for an entire new wardrol-e fo? her next production, "Wit," which will be begun in a few days, now that her sixth "Flying A" piece, "Southern f ride," has been completed. George Ade is again to be plcturized. His new crop of "Fables in Slang, which have appeared in magazines dur ing the last year, are now in prepara tion for release through General Film, which has already been distributing with conspicuous success the O. Henry torles in film form. The AUe rabies are being made into screen material by Essanay and will be 2o to 30 minutes in englh. The nrst number, scheduled tor September, is the fable of the Twelve-Cylinder Speed of the Leisure Class." A series of Ade fables filmed about a year ago were most successful. Beauty and wealth do not make a moving picture actress a star in these days of keen competition and exacting demands. Miss Miriam Fouche has both beauty and wealth, but sheer ability, aptitude for the work ana a determina tion to make good made her a Greater Vitagraph star in a little more than a year. Florence Reed, the well-known ac tress of the "speaking stage" and who has no superior in emotional roles, is the star of a big Pathe special. "To day." a drama in seven parts. This is not Miss Reed.s nrst appearance in a Pathe feature. She will be remem bered as the star of New lork. "At Bay" and "The Woman's Law" all Pathe releases. Ralph Ince directed the picture, which has been hailed by the critics as one of the best that has ever been made. Mary Miles Minter. American Film star, surprised her director. Lloyd In- crraham. and everybody else within earshot, by sounding a regulation bu gle call the other day during the film ing of a fight scene in "Her Country's Call." The border raiders are charging. Mary grasps the trumpet to awaken the Home Guards te the emergency. Director Ingraham expected a panto mime, but Mary had learned the lip- pucker and the Dream-control in her Littlest netjei" days, so sne delivered the sweet brass notes without discord or flat. ' It seems just like day before yester day to Miss Corlnne Griffith, film star the afternoon in New Orleans when in short dresses she stole away from her governess to see Blanche Walsh in More Than Queen, in the old Tulane Theater. But then, you see. Miss Grif fith is one of the youngest as well as one of the moat beautiful and talented of stars, so it isn't such a tax on her memory, after all. Six Months Old Baby Had Pimples On Fore head. Cuticura Soap and Ointment Healed. "When my baby was six months old red pimples came on her forehead. We were told it was only a rash, but the pimples bean to spread down her face and neck and they irritated her. They would be large in the morning and get dry and were soft. A neigh bor told me of her suc cessful use of the Cuticura Soap and Ointment and we eot them. In a month there were no signs of the pimples. Shewashealed." (Signed) Mrs. George Whyte, Condon, Oregon, Jan. 4, 1917. It is so easy to prevent skin and scalp troubles by using Cuticura Soap, and no other, for all toilet purposes, assisted now and then by touches of Cuticura Ointment to first signs of pimples, rashes, dandruff or irritation. Bathe with Cuticura Soap and hot water, dry lightly and apply Cuticura Ointment. At once the itching ceases, sleep and rest follow, and complete healment in most cases results in continued use of these fragrant, super-creamy emollients.

Suggestions Meet Approval Because They Are Along Lines "of Our Own Expressed Attitude," Reichstag Is Informed. COPENHAGEN1. Aug. 22. A Berlin dispatch quotes Chancellor Mlchaelis before the main Reichstag committee Tuesday in part as follows: "It is easily understood, in view of the attitude of our enemies, that, as the German press maintains, It is lm possible for us to make fresh peace proposals." The Chancellor here quoted the Ber lin Vorwaerts, tho Socialist organ, to the effect that responsibility for the prolongation of the war rested upon the allies, and that for Germany there was only one alternative "to defend ourselves and our kin." "I think," he continued, "this is the general feeling of our people. It is in such a situation as this that I now submit to you the peace proposal con tained In the Pope's note. The con tents of the note, I believe, are known to all of you." Peace Suggestions Dented. "I cannot take up any definite propo sltion regarding the material tenor of the proposals or go into any details concerning them until an agreement is reached with our allies. "it Is only possible for me to explain my views in general terms. I oppose the opinion that the Pope s proposal was Inspired by the central powers. It was due to the spontaneous decision of the head of the Catholic Church. "If'I must speak with reserve with regard to detail I can say that it cor responds generally to our own ex pressed attitude. We are sympatheic to every attempt to inspire the thought of peace among the war-weary people, and we especially greet the move of the Pope, which. In my opinion, was based on an earnest desire for im partiality and justice. Honorable Peace Desired. "I sum up in this way: " 'The note was not initiated by us, but was advanced on the spontaneous initiative of the Pope. We greet with sympathy the Pope's efforts by a dur able peace to make an end of the war of peoples.' "Regarding the answer of the note: We are communicating with our al lies, but the negotiations have not yet been, concluded. For the present I am unable to enter upon a closer discus sion of the material points, but 1 am ready to discuss the matter further with the committee until the answer is ready. I express the hope that com mon labor will bring us nearer the realization of what all desire an hon orable peace for tho fatherland.

AN OHIO druggist writes to "The Practical Druggist," a prominent New York Drug Journal, as follows : "Please furnish formula for Castoria. All the formulas I have worked with are either ineffective or disagreeable to administer." To this "The Practical Druggist" replies : "We do not supply formulas for proprietary articles. We couldn't if we wanted to. Your experience with imitative formulas is not surprising, but just what is to be expected. When Castoria is wanted, why not supply the genuine. If you make a substitute, it is not fair or right to label it Castoria. We can give you all sorts of laxative preparations for children, but not Castoria, and we think a mother who asks for Castoria would not feel kindly toward you if you gave her your own product under such a name."
