"Little Mary Sunshine" Won
Her Fame by Her Own Work
You would not think that the biog
raphy of a 5-year-old little girl
would be either long or very inter
esting. That's because you don't
know the little girl this story is about.
Her name a short while ago was just
Marie Osborne.
One night she went to bed. She
was unknown except to a privileged
few. In the next twenty-four hours
she had become world famous. The
Fathe Gold Rooster play, "Little
Mary Sunshine," in which she was
the star, had been shown that day
111 all the big cities ot the world.
Then came, "Shadows and hun-
shine," Joy and the Dragon," "Twin
Kiddies, ' "Told at Twilight," and
now, "Sunshine and Gold," which the
Empress theater is to present Thurs
dav. Fridav and Saturdav. It is i
wonderful story ot tears, laughter and
thrills in which a little girl being
kidnapped by gypsies, wins the heart
of a rich old man and then learns
that he is really her grandfather,
Since the beginning of her screen
career she has been to practically
every city of importance and every
civilized country of the world. She
always travels in a round tin box
much too small for an ordinary hu
man being. On the top in big letters
are the words, "Precious, handle with
care." They tell the whole story.

TODAY'S BEAUTY HINT
It is not necessary to shampoo your
hair so frequently if it is entirely and
properly cleansed each time by the
use of a really good shampoo. The
easiest to use and quickest drying
shampoo that we can recommend to
our readers is one that brings out all
the natural beauty of the hair and may
be enjoyed at very little expense, by
dissolving a tcaspoonful of canthrox,
which qan be obtained from any
druggist, in a cup of hot water. This
makes a full cup of shampoo liquid,
enough so it is easy to apply it to all
the hair instead of just the top of the
head. This when rubbed into the
scalp and onto every strand of hair,
chemically dissolves all impurities. It
is very soothing and cooling in its
action, as well as beneficial to both
scalp and hair. After rinsing out
the lather so created you will rind the
scalp is fresh, clean and free from
dandruff, while the hair dries quickly
and evenly, developing a bright luster
and soft fluniness that makes it seem
very heavy. Advertisement.
