Like Norma Any Time
bat She'a Wonderful Here
The culmination of years of hard
work and study, of practice and per
severance In acquiring the. very high,
est dorjee of charm and grace and
adorable personality, Is found in
"The Eternal Flame," at the Strand.
Norma Talmadge has never bad a
role for which she was better suited.
It fits her better than the proverbial
glove. Her art aa an actress, her
beautiful matronllness, her petite
glrllshness. Is given full play, and
sne goes majestically through the
plcturea, never losing for a moment
her queenly place. We do not be
lieve this picture better than "Smll
ln' Througut," but equally as good.
They don't make them better than
either picture. The producers dared
to make a costume play when cos
tume plays were waning, but so mod
ern Is this plot of Balzac's that you
forget the period It portrays. And,
unlike many costume plays, they left
out the spectacular, leaving a con
sistent, logical and meaty photoplay.
Even when Norma, as the duchess,
pretends a headache as a vamping
ruse, sne does It with a simplicity
and dignity that Is remarkable. Only
blind men could fall to fall for her
vamnlde. And her close-ups are
more exquisite than ever. It Is nee i- er .
less to add that the costumes, the1
settings and the casting are the very

A white brat wave drove the wan
calm from her check, and a tcarlet
war ensued in her veins.
She wa the daughter of Eve and
of Adam and of all of the Eve and
Adams since sin began. But to hear
her father talk, it miiiht have been

the sernent that tempted Eve to

fjaradc- of wickedness.
To hear her father talk, this tittle
town of Calverlv had been a pre-
Satanic Eden before the Los Angel
esian movie crawled in. l et even
this voting woman colild remember
that be had preached almost thu
same sermon against a long series of
other amusements. He had never
found the town anything but
moras of wickedness.
She felt a mad impulse to rise and
crv down at him across the brass
rail:
"Fapa, don'tt For Heaven's sake,
stop!" ' .
For the sheer sake of true trutn,
she was tempted to protest against
the folly of such a crusade. It was
bad enough in a newspaper. It

But of course she made no sound,
except to cough.
The climax of her father's appeal
was a jeremiad against the desecra

The town's two little picture houses
had proved so much more popular
than anything ever known before,
that they had ventured to slip in. per
formances on Sunday nights without
interference from the indolent police.

and would know no place to look for

terest. It was the alarum of fate.
She loved Elwood since thev were
children had loved him all the more
for his rags and the squalor of his
home. He was the son of the
town's most eminent drunkard, old
"Fall-down Farnabv." a man whose
office had been any saloon he could
stand up in. Then prohibition ar
rived and he had lacked headquarters,
but not potations. An ineenuitv and
an assiduity that would have made
him a great explorer or a great in
ventor kept him supplied at a time
when there was no leeal liouor at all.
and when what il' ii liquor there j
wa to be had was expensive that
even cneap moonshine whisky cost

Amonor the slipshod children nf til.

He had struggled no throutrh a

promise. He had latterly supported

to afford to eo to the war. had seen
f ranee and won the mierdon of
wound or two that made him glorious
in Kemember Stcddon s eves and i
little more lovable than ever, not be
cause he won praise for a hero's little
while, but because his wounds added
to the burdens that she lonecd to
divide with him.
Her father, however, had been un
able to tolerate the thought of his
daughter marrying the son of the
town sot. Doctor Steddon felt that
he was proving his love, his loving
wisdom toward his daughter bv for
bidding her even to meet voune Far
naby outside the choir loft. He was
sure that her love would wear out.
He did not know his daughter.
Who ever did?
The great danger about the whole
business of saving other people's
souls seem to he that life keeps
mocking the noblest efforts with fail
ure as it mocks the most high minded
playwrights. It is baffling to find
that nothing is more effective in de
stroying certain souls than the at
tempt to save them. Such souls
must be like caged birds that go
mad with fear when the kindliest
hand is thrust into the cage. They
dash themselves against the bars;
and if they escape from the tender
est palm, they flash away to the
wild woods.
Doctor Steddon was never more
devoted than when.he warned his girt
to avoid young Farnaby. When she
refused his advice he forbade her
to see the boy. She felt that she
obeyed a higher duty when she se
cretly disobeyed her father. She met
the young man secretly whenever
she could steal away.
Her mother had neither the cour
age to oppose this stealthy romance
nor the courage to inform her hus
band of it. The two lovers made an
unwilling accomplice of her. and she
was assured that they would marrv,
the moment Elwood could afford to
add her pretty lips to the mouths he
was already feeding.
The factory had promoted him
twice in its heyday of high price and
the time had seemed near when they
could afford to announce their ap
proaching marriage.
And now the chance wa gone.
And this meant to the girl far more

Armstrong's
Linoleum
Jbr Every Floor in the House
How a bit of dried paint
led to a new invention and
gave to you and others a
better kind of floor.
NEARLY everybody has seen a
can of paint that has stood
too long exposed to air and light. A
. thick coating appears on top of the
paint and it becomes useless for
painting.
In 1865 a man named Frederick
Walton stood looking at the thick
film that had formed on a can of
exposed paint. He saw what many
'others had seen, but he did a little
thinking as he looked.
What Walton Discovered
He pried off this film and ex
amined it. He found it was tough,
elastic, and smooth. It had an even
color. Further experiment proved
that it would withstand wear. It
was durable.
Mr. Walton knew what this film
was. It was linseed oil that had
oxidized and turned from a liquid
to a semi-solid, elastic material.
He took some of this oxidized lin
seed oil that had been exposed to
the air and mixed it with cork
"flour," or powdered cork. Then
he took, a strip of strong tough
burlap and pressed the composi
tion into the mesh of the burlap.
He Named It Linoleum
Here was made for the first time
a new substance which was named
i,inoVjji after linseeJ oiL
Mr. Walton has lived to see hi
invention become famous through
its value as a floor. Great milt in
F.urope, the British Islca, and
Anietka annually product millions
of yards of linoleum for the floors
of homes, offices, business places,
public and semi-public buildings.
Linoleum is a strong, sturdy ma
terial that can be printed with col
ors and designs, or the color may
be put in during the manufacture,
in which tase the colors run all the
way through to the "burlap back.
This, as your wife knows, is called,
"inlaid linoleum."
Linoleum makes such a good
floor that scores of shiploads of
cork and thousands of barrels of
linseed oil are used every year in
its manufacture. It makes a good
floor because it is firm, resilient,
quiet, smooth, and permanent. No
other floor is so easy to clean. There
are so many different colors and de
signs in linoleum that women who
have good taste in interior decora
tion make linoleum floors a part of
the color harmony of their rooms.
How to Identify Linoleum
When you buy linoleum, remem
ber what linoleum is. It has a bur
lap back that you can see. It does
not tear easily. Some floor cover
ings are mistaken for linoleum that
re not linoleum at all. They con
tain no cork and are not pressed on
burlap. To be sure you are ft tting
genuine linoleum, look for the Cir
cle "A" trade-matk on the burUp
back. This identifies the genuine
Armstrong's IJnolcim, a high quaU
tty product made in colon and de
tigns suitable for any romn in any
Wuse.
