Motion Picture Classic (Jan-Dec 1916)

MOTION PICTURE These are the signs of good health . Has your baby all of them ? Has he a good appetite — a clear pink skin — bright wide-open eyes — alert springy muscles — a contented little face? Does he gain each week in weight — does he sleep quietly with eyes and mouth tightly closed? If he hasn’t one and all of these things — look out. Something is wrong with him. And nine times in ten that something is his food. Your baby can’t grow rosy and strong if he doesn’t have the right food. Nurse your baby, if you can. If you can’t, wean him on Nestle’s FooH (A complete food — not a milk modifier) Don’t give him raw cow’s milk. Cow’s milk needs a calf’s four stomachs to digest it. “Cow’s milk, as ordinarily marketed, is unfit for human consumption,” says the U. S. Government. But there is something in cow’s milk that is good for your baby, if that something is modified and purified so that it is as light, as satisfying and as pure as mother’s milk itself. That is what is done for you in Nestle’s Food. It comes to you reduced to a powder — in an air-tight can. You add only water — boil one minute — and it’s ready with just the right amount of fats, proteids, and carbohydrates that will make a healthy baby. Send the coupon for free a ample box of Nettle’s — enough for 12 feedings — and the Specialist’ s book on the care of babies. Don’t delay. Your baby’s health depends on the food you give him now.

It spreads germs. I always carry an umbrella, which I raise whenever I see a person about to sneeze. Ker-choo! Lillian Gish is the only name she has. You have the wrong title on that Thanhouser. Julie A. C. — Thanks for that information about “Rosamond.” I shall make use of it. It was kind of you to bother. G. U. Stiff. — To tell you the truth I dont like your name, hut you seem to think it just the thing. Glad to get your opinions. You say the three players who have the most beautiful eyes are Anita Stewart, Clara Young and Alice Joyce. I wonder what my other readers think. Winnifred Kingston was Sally in “The Call of the Cumberlands.” I enjoyed yours. 56 Morris St. — You did not give your name. You also do not give a complete title. Do you refer to No. 329? If so, Agnes Vernon was Mary. Thanks for fee. Arizona. — Send a stamped, addressed envelope for a list of film manufacturers. Then you can write to them about a position. It is a hard job, tho. Write direct to the companies for pictures. Coralie. — Sydney Ainsworth was Dave in “The Strange Case of Mary Page.” Henry Walthall was interviewed in April, 1916. Grace Darling is not playing now. You were a little late for May. Glad you like our covers nowadays. Nellie F. L. — It is the Jacksonville Gaumont Co. that Gertrude Robinson is with. Theda Bara has been on the stage. Dorothy Kelley plays opposite Donald Hall now. No, they are not married. Bismark. — I suggest the following game for your party: Provide a pencil and paper for the scorekeeper and then start a game of conversation, each person trying not to use the personal pronoun I. Let the scorekeeper charge every person with each offense, and at the end of the allotted time make the winners pay forfeits. Try it. Ford-Cunard Admirer. — Grace Cunard was interviewed in July, 1915. Francis Ford in June, 1915. Amelia T., Kalamazoo. — You had the audacity to ask me what the weight of a silver dollar in dollar bills is worth. I tried all over to get an answer to this question, but without success, so I borrowed a silver dollar and a lot of dollar bills, and I found that it took just twenty of the latter to equal the former in weight. Now are you satisfied? Dorothy. — That was Evelyn Brent in “The Lure of Heart’s Desire” and in “The Soul Market.” Kenneth Casey is growing fast now. He is playing in vaudeville — plays piano, violin and sings. MURDOCK MACQUARRIE IN A FAVORITE CHARACTER POSE (Fifty-eight)
