I came away feeling that Marie St. Clair was a woman I had met, and I shall think of her often and, in time, forget that she lived only on the silversheet and think of her as a woman I used to know. I think, when the motion picture public has seen "A Woman of Paris" they will want to know all about Edna Purviance. The second interesting thing about her is her seclusion from the picture colony and her position in California's most exclusive social circles. Xow the truth is that Edna Purviance is the one film star who belongs in society. By that I don't mean she is the only one accepted. There are many screen stars who are welcomed and honored guests in any home. But Edna Purviance is a part of the most aristocratic and select set of Los Angeles, Santa Barbara and Pasadena. She doesn't come as a film star, a lion, a brilliant curiosity. She is one of them. She lives their life, spends her time with them. Her most intimate friend is Katherine Elkins Hitt. society leader, daughter of former Senator Elkins and the object of much international attention at the time of her romantic courtship by the Duke d'Abruzzi, brother of the King of Italy. Mrs. Hitt is famed for her wit as well as her beauty. When she is at her splendid Montecito home, Miss Purviance is her house guest most of the time. Now that Mrs. Hitt is wintering at her estates in Middleboro, she is wiring frantically for Edna to join her there before she starts her next picture. I could name you any number of bachelors, belonging to old California families, who have been devoted to Miss Purviance. Her engagement to young Carlton Burke, polo ace, was rumored at one time. Polo games, yachting cruises, golf matches, week ends at Riverside — that is where you are apt to locate Miss Purviance. And she has assumed the manner and the outward appearance of that class rather than of the picture stars. I do not think anyone would ever take her for an actress. She has a calm, decisive, indifferent way with her. Her hair is cut short and she wears it plainly brushed back, and — her eyes trouble her from the lights — she puts on heavy, shell-rimmed glasses when she reads or writes. Her clothes The Bottles That Bring Beauty — Your safeguard against wrinkles, sagging muscles and complexion blemishes Mineralava is ;i natural antiseptic clay with wonderful medicinal and beauty-giving qualities. It is refined and prepared for facial use by the foremost chemists of the world. Mineralava draws out all impurities from the pores, cleansing the skin thoroughly. It stimulates the blood vessels, creating perfect circulation, and thereby builds up the facial muscles and nourishes the underlying tissues. Mixeralava will demonstrate a marked improvement after one application. Its continued use keeps the pores so clean that they gradually become smaller and the texture of the skin consequently becomes finer. The color comes back to the cheeks, bringing a skin health and beauty unobtainable by any other method. The regular use of Minerai.ava three timesa week will keep the skin scrupulously clean, the blood circulation active, the muscles firm, and the contour youthful. Mineralava Face Finish, which should be used after a Mineralava treatment is a wonderfid tonic for the skin — soothing, healing, nourishingand at the same time a mild bleach. The cleansed skin readily absorbs the Face Finish, which gently closes, without clogging, the pores. It is essentially protective and provides an excellent base for your favorite face powder, (which will not cake as it sometimes does on a heavier base.) Mineralava Face Finish is not merely an adjunct to Mineralava, but is, on the contrary, a very fine lotion on its own account, and its regular use on the skin after bathing will impart a smooth and velvety texture. r * * Mineralava is on sale at all good dru<j and department stores at $2.00 a bottle (each bottle containing enough for 18 treatments), a special trial tube at 50c containing enough for three treatments, and the Mini: it. wavy Face Finish at SI. 50.
