ANITA STIvWAItT IN “NAME THE WOMAN’ ’-TO-NIGHT.

Anita Stewart -brings to the screen a new type of acting in Columbia Master Picture’s “Name the Woman” at the Princess Theatre to-night. She is forced by the action to evidence the most tense emotions that flesh is heir to with her face entirely concealed by a grotesque mask. The entire plot of ‘Name the Woman’ is i unique. The photoplay starts with a murder trial and carries the- audience through a bridge party with a sudden and dramatic termination, a colorful Mardi Gras ball, a sehsational murder and works up to one of the l>est surprise climaxes it has even been our privilege to witness. The story was written by Erie 0. Kenton, who also directed. Jt is forceful, convincing aiid at times becomes intensely real. The drama is powerful and keeps the audience 'with eyes riveted on the screen lest a slight movement on the part of the players might be lost. ‘Niime the'Woman’ is the type of picture that will appeal to all lovers of mystery stories, all persons who follow with interest the proceedings of murder trials, those who enjoy beautiful scenic backgrounds and the individuals who find entertainment in drama well done. Miss Stewart portrays the mysterious masked witness, whose testimony is essential to establish the innocence of the accused. Huntley Gordon makes an excellent prosecuting attorney. Gaston Glass as a man about town, victim of circumstances, accused of murder, wins the sympathy of his audiences. The usual supports will also be shown and Mr T«V Eestieaux at the Piano.

A. lady doctor says smoking is a wonderful preservative of the teeth, and that although the teeth of some smokers may be discoloured they ar- 1 generally sounder than those of nonsmokers. So many hard things have been said about tobacco that it is refreshing to find a lady—and a doctor at that—putting in a good word for the weed. But of course every smoker knows that smoking prevents or arrests dental decay. What every smoker doesn’t know, or else ignore l -', is that excess of nicotine is : highly injurious. And that’s where genuine New Zealand tobaccos come in. ' Com paratively free from ' nicotine they may be smoked almost incessant!with perfect safety. That is largely owing to their being toasted (as no other /tobaccos are). The toasting rids them of' nicotine and gives thorn their delicious flavour and delightful aroma. Exclusively manufactured by the National Tobacco Co.. Ltd., (pioneers of the N.Z. tobacco industry), they appeal to all. tastes. “Riverhead Gold” is mild; “Cavendish” and “Navy Cut.” medium; ant, “Cut Plug No. 10” full—Advt.
