Fm Going to Be DifF'runt {Continued from page 29) Then, one day, he was standing with a pal in front of Henrj's cafe, the famous Henry's patronized by Chaphn and lesser sycophants. They tossed a coin to decide whether they should fare beyond their means at Henry's or move on to lesser food and lesser checks. The coin spun — and it was Henry's. Thus does the flip of a coin decide a man's whole fate. They went in and presently a waiter came up to LeRoy. He asked him to step to another table and speak to Mr. Edwin Carewe. LeRoy took his chance by the throat. He was horribly nervous. He still is. Mr. Carewe wanted him to play opposite to Dolores del Rio in "The Bear Tamer's Daughter." LeRoy thought his empty stomach was reacting on his brain. He pinched himself. He still felt. He made the tests. The results were — well, the results were a five-year contract with Edwin Carewe, and the wolf wailed a swan song from the Mason door. "I'm going to be diff'runt," said big, timid LeRoy Mason. "How?" I inquired — and sighed because he was so very brand new, so raw and so sensitive to the first bloom of success. "I'm preparing for the future. The past has taught me to. I've taken out life insurance. All that I can safely carry. My mother is building us a home out here. A home we can afford. "I used to drink — well, quite a bit. I've cut it out. Entirely. And when I make up my mind to do a thing or not to do it, I do stick. "I'm going to get married some day. Not right now. Not for some time. I've never cared a great deal for girls. I won't have my head turned like some fellows I know. That sort of thing has never bothered me very much, and I'm not going to let it begin now. I'll be diff'runt enough to know that most girls won't care a rap about me for myself. They will have — very often — quite other motives. I'll know that. I won't he fooled. "I won't go to parties. I don't like them anyhow. I love to be alone — in order to ponder over my past sins. I've always had ti-.at craving to be by myself, even when I was a kid at home. "I want to play the kind of parts I'm playing now. in tiiis picture. Parts where 1 am not dressed up. Where I am wild and vagabondish and free. "I always learn from the mistakes of otiiers. And when I think of poor Wallace Reid and Valentino, I feel that I'll know what to do and wiiat not to do. "I'll never have a lot of followers or parasites or whatever you call 'em around ine. Bad advisers with worse intentions. I'll know what that's about, too. ".\nd I know I'll never get what is commonly known as Ritzy or high-hat. Eor a very good reason. I like my fellow men too much. I love people. They've been good to me out here. They've given me the glad hand and good wishes all along the line, and they would have given me more substantial things if I had let 'em. Charlie Earrell and I extra'd around together quite a bit. and we often used each other's name and went to two studios where one of us had been called. You can't up-stage people when you love them. "I believe that a person gets out of life and out of things just about what he iiives. I suppose there's nothing very new 111 that except that I believe it so firmly." And so they continue to go on — and on — one generation never learns from another. (feminine Qyiygiene is \Vloio (Convenient J-Jny where 'HE modern American woman is envied by the women of all other countries in the world today because of her independence. She knows how to take care of herself And she has learned that the secret of a woman's charm depends upon personal hygiene. She knows that neglect of this matter means broken homes and blasted romances. Heretofore feminine hygiene has been maintained at great discomfort. Seldom convenient, under some conditions it was impossible. No 'Water Is Necessary Now, however, through the use of a harmless antiseptic in tablet form, feminine hygiene is possible at all times and under all conditions, as no water is necessary.
