Monsieur Le Southland. — So you have missed me. Yes, the editor tried to keep a large part of me out again this month, but I fooled him. I leave it to you— aren’t these answers more important than advertisements? Niles Welch in “Reclaimed” (Paramount). “The Death Dance” was taken in the East. John Bowers was born in Indiana. He is six feet and weighs 180 pounds. _ Leslie H. S. — I agree with you when you say knowledge is power — that is, if you know it about the right person ! You’ll be a famous photoplaywright some day if you keep^ on. Robert Gordon in “Blue Blazes Rawden.” Douglas Fairbanks Fan. — Why, Audrey Berry was in to see the Answer Man, and she is prettier than ever. You refer to Jack Mower as Graham in “Jilted Jane.” Wanda Hawley in “Border Wireless.” Mary W. — You say you want the December 1918 Motion Picture Magazine, which _we are out of, and you will be glad to pay for it — Mary Wasaha, 659 Oak Street, Bethlehem, Pa. You’re going to get a raft of magazines, Mary, when our readers know that you are so nice and good-looking. Dimples. — So you are physically down and out, and medicine does not help you. Nonsense ! I dont believe you are anywhere near out, but you may be down temporarily. Get out in the sun. Remember that where the sun does not go, doctors do. Nature is the only real doctor we have. All that medicines and physicians can do is to assist Dr. Nature. That will be about $1.50 for the advice. _ And you want an interview with Thomas Meighan. Look up the February 1917 Maga^ne issue. Interested. — After seeing Corinne GrifBtn in “The Girl Question, you think it would be a matter of the question of clothes, r^^th Avenue was scoured for those gowns, and they look it, dont they? You want an interview with Carl vie Blackwell. Very well, you shall have it. But I certainly cannot here give you the biographies of the ten players you mention. . Chick.— So you want to register a kick. Go ahead. You dont care for Norma Talmadge in Chinese or Indian parts, but want her as her real self. We shall get in touch with Norma immediately, if not sooner. Arthur M. — Say, what do you think I am. How am I going to get a list of all the Greek motion picture players? It cant be done.

I have no influence when it comes to getting Norma Talmadge and Eugene O’Brien to play together. Perhaps you have. CoRP. H. I. S.— You think I am very funny, do you? Alas, alack! I haven’t a funny bone in my body — not even a funny-bone. But I have a large wish-bone. You bet I would like to get better acquainted, so dont forget to call. Jean Keller. — Yours about husbands was interesting, but remember that a lover has all the virtues and all the defects that a husband has not. Pauline Frederick and Tom Wise are to play together in a stage play in Sep i tember. Send for a list of correspondent tj! clubs. Oh, yes, I remember beautiful Octavi; Handworth. Lillian Concord in “The Trou Y ble Maker” as the mother. J Jaguar. — I agree with you when you sa; « never take advantage' of another man’s igno ranee, but it’s often done. No, G. M. AnderU 4 son is in New York, connected with theatri x cals. Well, if it contains fires, wrecks .q murders, kidnappings, etc., I should call i i melodrama of the rankest kind. But tha i governor who refused to pardon the lady wh } murdered her husband probably believes r $. Volts for Women. Turn off the current; it’ f getting warm. Kathleen H. — Thanks for the fee. Mon 1 roe Salisbury was born in New York and i t with Universal. Mollie Pearson and August t Haviland in “Passing of the Third Floe , Back.” Pretty ancient, but No, I hav I never had the pleasure of kissing the Blame f stone.

Shumway is going to be Lilli" : Walker’s leading man, and remember Herb* 1 Pryor, of Edison? He’s the heavy. j Edith H. — Pardonne.'z vioi. Wh}-, brandy ; called cognac, after the French town of tl_ j name in the brandy-making region of Angc^ . leme. William Gillette, who is playing i “Dear Brutus,” is 65. Nat Goodwin was ' ; when he died recently. De Wolf Hopper is ' ; and E. H. Sothern 59. Why, I happened ' I pass Caruso and his bride the other day, ai ^ she certainly is a beauty. Classic D. D. — So you thought I'f'ss C • i ford was “a chickenly queen” in “Who ifc Number 1 ? Prenea garde. Karenina. — That’s up to you.
