"THE EYES OF THE WORLD"
Coming to the Orpheum Next Fri
day and Saturday, March 12 and
13th.
.The orpheum theatre offers some
thing for next Friday and Saturday
different in pictorial drama from
the run of great film offerings put!
forward of late. Represented in
this achievement are Harold Bell
Wright, author of the famous story,
which has had a sale of over two
million copies in book form, and W. i
H. Clune, who was associaed in the
production of "The Clansman" I
("The Birth of a Nation") and other ;
large film ventures. j
The noted author amplified thei
story for this production and person-J
ally assisted in the work of putting j
his characters on the screen. While ;
"The Eyes of the World" is primari-i
ly a romance, it is melodramatic in
the best sense, bristling with adven-i
tUre, hazard and dramatic clash, as!
well as idyllic charm. The cinema 1
version is in nine acts, was seven
months in making at unlimited cost i
on the actual scenes of the story in
southeastern California. " I

If you Yrant to know why range bodies rust
out from the inside leaving an otherwise good
range, come and see the Asbestos Sweat. See
where and how the Sweat-Rust forms. See the
patented Copper-Clad Idea: "PURE SHEET
COPPER BETWEEN THE RANGE BODY AND
SWEATY ASBESTOS."
SEE THESE THINGS FOR YOURSELF
KNOW FOR A CERTAINTY.
SEE THE LATEST STYLE IN
RANGES
The range with concealed hinges, catches,
latches, corners and crevices.
The range as smooth as a dish because the
nickel parts are free of rivet and bolt heads.
The range with four walls and an air space
built like a thermos bottle.
The range with a solid one piece malleable
iron back flue.
The range with a square smoke pipe.
COPPER-CLAD MEANS PURE SHEET
COPPER IS PLACED ' BETWEEN THE
SWEATY ASBESTOS AND RANGE BODY.
TO PLACE IT ELSEWHERE WOULD BE
LIKE CLIMBING ON TOP OF A ROOF TO
