The latter build ing will be the largest one, measur ing 75 by 10!l feet. " the Lady I.etty," came to lij;lit, written in the very flush of the author's vigor ous Btyle and before lie had turned his attention to work of a more philo sophical and less "active" nature. In spita of the tremendously difficult scenic problems it presented for the story is laid on the deep sea, amid hazardous storms the story appealed to Jesse L. l.asky as splendid picture material and rights to the novel were secured. But the problems of "location" were complicated with those of casting. Norris' heroine Is feminine to her rosy finger tips, yet vigorous of body, energetic of mind, capable of handling a mutinous ship's crew and subduing them to obedience. , Norris' hero is a son of aristocracy, yet equipped with the muscles of a stevedore and the grit and speed of a four-round champion. Location perplexities of this Para mount picturization of "Moran of the Lady Letty,' which opens at the Page theatre tomorrow for four days, were solved by Producer George Melford, and the difficulties of casting faded away before the personalities of Dor othy Dalton and Rudolph Valentino. Frank Norris' genius has been given new vivlfication. ASHLAND PLANS FINANCE 4TH BY STEPS FROM STREET : CAR, HIT BY AUTO Joe Gibson stepped from the south Bide or the Medford-Coast Railway Btreet car last night at 9:50 and was struck by an Overland touring car driven by Glenn Fabrick, Jr., which Iwas traveling east on Main street near Wr. The driver of the car at once ap plied the brakes and stopped within a very few feet from the point at which the man had been . hit and llmocked down. A doctor was called at fn6e and the Injured man was taken to Sacred Heart hospital where It was said by the attending physician that mis injuries were not particularly seri ous, and he" is expected to be up and about in a few days. The street car had been standing in fronf of the depot, across from the Standard Oil station for some timet Gibson was aboard and was waiting for the car to start. Just before the car was ready to start he stepped from the rear exit directly In front of the iapproaching auto which was running within three or four feet of the car. It is supposed that he had forgotten something. He stepped from the rear oft the car and was knocked behind it thus escaping being run over by the wheels of the auto. Witnesses of the nccident attribute no blame to anyone and considur it unavoidable.

The merchants can figure to be back at their places of business by one fifteen. Bill Hart Leaving We don't know what has kept those folks who have not seen William S. Hart's latest picture "Travelin' On" at the Page theatre away so iong, but if they don't want to miss the greatest Western picture shown here in many months they'd better get a hustle on, because it is having Its last screenings today. - Frank Norris had no thought of mo tion pictures when he set great splashes of life across the pages of his linuiiiMuri jjih. i t Aici eague it was wnicn astounoeu literary prophets, through its power and elemental force, its welcoming! Norris. as the future author of the! "Great American Novel" Into refer-1 ring to him as "the American Zola." And after "McTeague" had made Us , great mark an earlier novel, "Moran of "Three Live Ghosts" at Rialto One of the most delightful photo plays shown here in many weeks is "Three Live Ghosts," a picture pro duced by George FNtzmaurice, which was presented with no Inconsiderable success at the Rialto theatre yester day. The story deals with three lads who after being reported "missing," escape from a German prison camp and on reaching London prove them selves to be live khosts indeed. The leatured players are Anna Q. NilBson and Norman Kerry, both well known to Paramount audiences. The picture is artistic and the supporting cast all that the most exacting taste could demand. A&IILAXD, June 12. The budffot plan will in a measure finance the Fourth of -July celebration project, reinforced by miscellaneous contri bution, as It is hoped to establish the biidgei system's status on a perma nent basis. The canvass for the cur rent season has already commenced, C. H. Pierce being chairman of a specific committee, the personnel of which will be reinforced from time to time. The budget proper includes all activities In which tho Chamber of Commerce is engaged and their name is legion.- It curries with it a pur pose to raise $4000 In a lump sum, and thus eliminate the necessity of campaigning interminably fori this, that and the other project. The first day's canvass yielded nearly $1000 and It is planned to raise the limit within a week. Its plan and scope follows precedent established by the old community war chest which proved such a success. iliK'Htly HOinething will bo doing when they tackle a ii.j't.

Opportunity Is lying in wait to boost the celebration and publicity fund In general, either by making a pledge In behalf of the budget pur chasing an auto name plute for your oar, or investing in a ticket to the booster rally and concert at the Ar- mory June 19. Perish the thought that Ashland is the counterpart of either Iteno. or Hollywood, yet nevertheless a white slave charge has been lodged against parties temporarily stopping here, and arrests mude, pending investiga tion by federal . officials, who will come all the way from Seattle.

Men and wbmen compelled to go out into the world to battle for a living quite often neglect their health to such an extent that a breakdown is the inevitable result. Such neglect is criminal. In many instances it leads to fatal consequences. When you have moody spells, feel depressed, begin to have dis taste for business or social duties, when you cannot sleep at night these are sure signs of nervous ailments and should be checked. Read below of the experience of one woman who, according to her own testimony, .was facing death, but who for tunately discovered the right remedy in time, and which brought her back to health and normal strength: Miss Rena B. Crossland, Kempt, Queen's Co., N. S., writes: "I feel it a duty as well as a privilege, to tell of the wonderful benefits I derived from the use of Dr. A. W. Chase's Tonic Pills. In March, 1917, 1 had anaemia of the brain and the mental and physical suffering I endured is inde scribable. I had treatment from three doctors, and for twelve days was uncon scious; while for three months I was fed and cared for like an infant. My toother was so anxious for me to use Dr. A. W. Chase's Tonic Pills that shs crushed them and baked them in my food. After ' using two boxes 1 could feed myself; and after using them for two months, my health improved so rapidly that doctors and friends said my recovery was a miracle t cannot recommend D . W. Chase's Tonic PilU oo highly, even to those ho seem to be facing death." Dr. A. VV. Chase's Medicine are on sale at all first class drug stores. To be sure ol getting the genuine, see that portrait and signature of A. W. Chase, M.D., are on every box. This trade mark is your protection against imitations and substitutes.
