Wl iOTION PICTUR MAGAZINE . WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE? By "You Tell 'Em," an Admirer of The Answer Man. The Answer Man sits at his task, Answering you o'er and o'er; Delving deep into each one's past As he has done before. Dear, old, white-haired Answer Man, Come to our pages to stay, Cheering his readers as they go The pathways of today, Shooting the stars from their places, Telling us what they do — If Mary's eyes are of hazel hue, If F. X. Bushman's blue, If Marguerite Clark is thirty years old, If Theda is vamping yet, If Douglas F. wears orange hose, And other things, you bet! Here's the point I want to take — Just this, what difference does it make? Dont you love him just the same? A rose — you know — by any name. Is Clara Kimball very Young? Is Blanche so awf'ly Sweet? Why is Louise so Lovely? And Pearl so White and neat? Does Fannie Ward off middle age? Is Mary Fuller than of yore? Pray tell me what does Wallace Reid And is he Owen More? Is William's Hart all sound and true? Is Theda any Bara? Here's the point I want to take — Just this, what difference does it make? If Mary drinks soda thru a straw And always sleeps till nine, If Chaplin's underwear is silk And,, oh, so very fine ! Is this your business or mine? This point I'm asking you to take — Dear friends, what difference does it make? They are the stars 'way up in the sky, It's up to us to watch them shoot by — They are the meteors that fall 'cross the screen And otherwise judging is cruel and mean. CONCERNING WANDA By S. King Russell Ever since I saw Wanda Hawley In "We Cant Have Everything" I've wanted Wanda, That little blonde goddess, Who played havoc with the hero, the audience and me. She has made my mind Wanda ever since ; In fact, if I wanted to pun outrageously, She has made my mind wander wholly. But, honestly, That picture gave me a new ambition. I'm going to work and save Till I've gathered in eight million, (Or my uncle might die some day). And then I'm going to do As the hero did So that Wanda can vamp me And my millions. And to think that the said hero, Instead of being really worth eight million, Was paid a fine salary To carry Wanda Hawley, Who was pretending to be lame, Into her dressing-room, And let her kiss him (Dont you love that?) One of those slow, fade-out kisses . . . That you dont get in real life, You and I. So, if you've seen her, You'll understand why, Ever since I saw that Rupert Hughes play I've wanted Wanda Hawley. But what's the use? We Cant Have Everything. GIVEN TO YOU as a LARKIN Fa£3,r SAVING An Oak Rocker like this usually sells for $8 to $10 at stores.

You Have a Beautiful Face-But Your Nose IN this day and age attention to your appearance is an absolute necessity if you expect to make the most out of life. Not only should you wish to appear as attractive as possible for your own selfsatisfaction, which is alone well worth your efforts, but you will find the world in general judging you greatly, if not wholly, by your "looks," therefore it pays to "look your best" at all times. Permit no one to see you looking: otherwise; it will injure your welfare! Upon the impression you constantly make rests the failure or success of your life — which is to be your ultimate destiny? My new NoseShaper "Trados" (Model 24) corrects now ill-shaped noses without operation quickly, safely and permanently. Is pleasant and does not interfere with one's daily occupation, being worn at night. Write today for free booklet, which tells you how to correct Ill-Shaped Noses without cost if not satisfactory.
