Never mind your age as measured by years. How do you
feel? That's the thing that counts!
See this sprightly old gentlemen coming toward you down
the street. His birth record would show you that he is past
seventy. But judging from the easy grace with which he
swings along, his errect carriage, his ruddy complexion, the
keen glance of his eye, his whole appearance the very picture
of health, you would say that he is not a day past fifty. He
is young in spite of his three score years and ten.
More frequer'Jy you see the opposite of his type. Men scarcely in
their thirties- laggard, listless, weak, nervous men who take no interest
in life, just dragging out a weary existence, all in, tired and worn out
Though young in years, they are, nevertheless, old men. Their vital
forces are on the wane. They've lost their "punch" and "pep." They
fel old -and they look it!
Stay young by keeping your body fit. Keep stomach, bowels, liver,
kidneys and bladder healthy and active. Build up your strength and health.
Nothing will accomplish, these results better than
RICHARD Carle and his com
pany of fun makers, dancers
and singers, in the merry musi
cal comedy, "Sunshine," will be the
attraction at the Boyd's theater for
two nights beginning tonight. The
story of "Sunshine" has to do with
the adventures of an American mo
tion picture scenario writer, his
wife a former winter garden beauty,
and an American life insurance
agent, who meet in Spain and who
become entangled with smugglers,
matadors, dancers and charming
senoritas. In the support of Mr.
Carle are such players of note as
Marjory Owen, Betty Booth,
Leona Stater, David Quixano, Phil
McDermott, John J. Ward, Milton
Dawson, Harry Kenneth and the
ever famous Murdoch Brothers, a
trio of wonderful dancers. Some
of the big song hits are "Love is
Like This Little Wheel of Mine,"
"Something Nice in Lingerie,"
"Home Again, Home Again," "I
"Like to Look Around a Little,"
"Treat 'Em Rough," and "The Land
of Make Believe." The chorus is
a decided feature and has been
called the famous prima donna
beauty chorus, for the girls and
boys are real singers and dancers.
Presented in two elaborate scenes,
with numerous costume changes,
"The Reckless Eve" is by far the
most amusing tabloid musical com
edy that has ever been offered at the
Orpheum. Its presentation requires
20 people. One of the three princi
pals, Cecil Summers, portrayal of
the engineeer is a burlesque on peo
ple who are always looking for the
worst to happen. The vocal ability
of Esther Jarrett, the prima, donna,
is a delight to theater patrons. A
featured act of the current bill is
presented by Gus Edwards' famous
juvenile entertainer, "George" Price,
whose impersonations of famous
actors are particularly effective. ..

Last night Y audience mystified
Tries vainly to detect diff erence between voices
of famous artists and RE-CREATIONS
by Edison's new phonograph
Those present at Boyd Theater
last night saw Marie Rappold walk
onto the stage. They saw her take
her position next to a beautiful cab
inet. They saw her lips give voice
to the opening lines of Gounod's
Ave Maria. Then suddenly her lips
were still but the song kept flow
ing on.
How came this? They were
hearing Mme. Rappold's voice, yet
Mme. Rappold was not singing.
The entire audience gasped as it
slowly realized that it had been un
able to distinguish between Mme.
Rappold's voice and the RE-CREATION
of that voice by the New Edison.
This was the daring test under
taken last night at the Boyd Thea
ter by Thomas A. Edison. He
sought to prove that no difference
exists between the voice of the liv
ing artist and its RE-CREATION
by the New Edison. The musically
cultured of Omaha were invited to
pass judgment. No test could have
been more exacting.
Marie Rappold made compari
son after comparison. Mario Lau
renti, the famous concert baritone
also made tests. The mystfied
audience tried vainly to catch a dif
ference between the original rendi
tion and its RE-CREATION by the
New Edison. No one could tell
one from the other.
It was a triumph whole and
complete for the New Edison.
The NEW EDISON
"The Phonograph With a Soul"
The instrument used in last night's
Tone-Test is the regular model which
sells for $285 (in Canada, $431) . It is an
exact duplicate of the Laboratory Model
which Mr. Edison. prefected after spend-
ing Three Million Dollars in experiments.
The New Edison alone of all phono
graphs is capable of sustaining this test.
Until Mr. Edison knew it would do so, he
regarded his work as unfinished.
Ask someone who was present, last
night. Learn the amazing truth. Then
come in and let us prove it personally to
