ALICE HOLLISTER IS A SHARK AT TENNIS A Piano Finish ALICE HOLLISTER, the Kalem leading lady, is a shark at tennis. On one of the last bright days of the late fall, she indulged in a game and managed to acquire a husky cold germ. Screen actresses never have time to be ill, and Miss Hollister bethought herself of a family liniment that is said to have much virtue. "Nothing like that liniment," she said. "Been in the family for generations. I'll be as good as new in the morning." She was. In fact, she had a grand piano finish. She had to call for help to be peeled from the bed. It seems a new maid had filled the empty liniment bottle with a shellac varnish, and Miss Hollister shone resplendent. "Ah, well, "she said philosophically, when she had been soaked out of her night clothes, "it cured the cold — and what more could one ask?" KALEM MARGUERITE COURTOT. IN "THE VENTURES OF MARGUERITE." You'd never think, to see Marguerite Courtot in overalls, with a kitten under each arm, that her exclusive creations in the way of gowns are the envy of every other screen actress. FAMOUS PLAYERS MARGUERITE CLARK. IN "THE PRINCE AND THE PAUPER. We who laughed and wept with "The Prince and the Pauper" in our young days will welcome the release of Mark Twain's famous play upon the screen. Marguerite Clark will appear in the two parts simultaneously. The double exposure is always interesting. The camera trick is a clever one, and when Miss Clark appears on the screen as the Prince, facing the tattered little ragamuffin as the Pauper, there is a scenic effect that cannot fail of giving a thrill, even in these times when the double exposure has become so common as to no longer excite an amazed comment. The Famous Players Company stars Miss Clark through the Paramount Pictures Corporation.
