"DEVOTION CENTRAL
THEATRE...
The Central Theatre announces the opening on Sunday of Ann Harding's new RKO Pathe produc- tion," "Devotion," her frat starring vehicle of the new season, made from Pamela Wynne's well-known novel, "A Little Flat In the Temple."
It is a new type of picture for Miss Harding in which she plays double role one as her charming self, and the other a dowdy mid- dle-aged governess.
A cast of extraordinary propor tions has been assembled about this always dependable star. Leslie Howard plays the masculine lead, and in leaser roles are such fine character players as O. F. Heggie, Robert Williams, Dudley Digges, Louis Closaer Hale, Allison Skipworth, Tempe Pigott, Hittle Douglas Scott and many others. Robert Milton directed.
ISN'T SHE LOVELY ?
Skin like a peach, lips naturally. red, eyes bright and clear, and a amile that tells you that she is full of good spirits. She might not confide the secret, but every woman and girl should know that internal cleanliness is the only way to genuine beauty. And for that pur pose there is nothing better. than Pinkettes, the favourite laxative,
Pinkettes gently banish those accumulations of waste matter that are a menace to skin beauty, the stagnation in the liver that dulls the eye, and the stomach derange- ment that causes allow comple xion and unhappy facial expres sion. If you value good looks. take Pinketter occasionally. And you'll not only look better but you'll feel brighter for this little attention to your internal needs. All chemista can supply you.
