Harold Lloyd's new picture, "Hot Water," opens today at the Heilg. for a four-day run. The picture, for tlioao who care for comedy of the happy go-lucky kind, will bo a rare treat. More laughs than arc ordinarily crowded even into a Lloyd film are said to be awaiting the fans who will see the production. From every indi cation, the picture will he ono of the blggeat drawing cards of the year iu the motion picture comedy line. Hudolph Valentino created some what of a surprise at the Hex la.it evening, where bis vehicle "A Snint.-d Devil opened its fnur-dny run. Con trary to hiB custom, Valentino did l try to look soulftilly beautiful all the time, and did some real acting.

V. Pierce, wbose picture nppfars above, was not only a sue- j cussful physician but nlwo n profound ! student of the medicinal qualities of Nature's remedies, roots aud herbnt and by closo observation of tbe. methods used by tbe Indians, he dis-. covered their great remedial qualities, ; especially for venknennes of women, and after careful preparation suc ceeded in giving to tbe world a rem-; edy which bos been used by women with Ibe best results for half a cen tury. Jr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip tion is still in great demand, while, many other so called "cure-alls" have come and gone. Tbe reason for its phenomenal success ia because of its absolute purity, and lr. Pierce's high standing as an honored citixen of Buf falo is n guarantee of all that is claimed for the Favorite Prescrip-! tion as a regulator for the ills pecul- i iar to women.
