He will in all probability return to the screen again in the new Lehrman comedies. -to (Xam^ crt$xt^ -^aCi ^^ur^jbt, UP TO the present time it has been almost impossible to get a face powder to stay on longer than it takes to put it on. You powder your nose nicely and the first gust of wind or the first puff of your handkerchief and away goes the powder, leaving your nose shiny and conspicuous, probably iust when you would give anything to appeal at your best. A specialist has perfected a pure powder that really stays on; that stays on until you wash it off. It does not contain white lead or rice powder to make it stay on. This improved formula contains a medicinal powder doctors prescribe to improve the complexion. In fact, this powder helps to prevent and reduce enlarged pores and irritations. This unusual powder is called La-may (French Poudre L'Ame) . Because La-may is so pure and because it stays on so well, it is already used by over a million American women. All dealers carry the large sixty-cent box and many dealers also carry the generous thirtycent size. When you use this harmless powder and see how beautifully it improves your complexion you will understand why Lamay so quickly became the most popular beauty powder sold in New York. Women who have tried all kinds of face powder say they cannot buy a better powder anywhere at any price. There is also a wonderful Lamay talcum that sells for only thirty cents. Herbert Roystone, Dept. V, 16 East 18th St., New York. An Ardent Admirer of Walter McGrail. — Yes, the mustache Walter wore in "The Black Secret" with Pearl White is his very own, and not a made-up one. I never heard of the engagement you speak about. He was born in Brooklyn, New York, in 1888. His latest plays are "Blind Youth" and "Invisible Divorce." Katie Grossman. — I looked all through the envelope and letter, but could not find the stamp you mentioned. Look at the end of this department and you will find the addresses you want.

Ethel Clayton was born in Champaign, Illinois, in 1890. Norma Talmadge was born in 1897 and Constance Talmadge in 1900. Winifred F. — You certainly have seen about all of Mary Pickford's pictures. The only ones you seem to have missed are "Caprice," "Heart of the Hills," and "Stella Maris." Kathryn C. — See addresses at end of this department. Kiwi, New Zealand. — Glad to hear that you are getting along so famously with your stage work. Success to you! I see you aren't too busy to remember The Oracle and see a few pictures on the side. If Pearl gets that letter you will no doubt hear from her. Lillian Gish is not married. She was born in Springfield, Ohio, in 1896. Your other questions have already been answered. Do write again.
