WAKE UP YOUR LIVER BILE— Without Calomel — And You'll Jump Out of Bed in the Morning Rarin' to Go The liver should pour out two pounds of liquid bile into your bowels daily. If this bile is not flowing freely, your food doesn't digest. It just decays in the bowels. Gas bloats up your stomach. You get constipated. Your whole system is poisoned and you feel sour, sunk and the world looks punk. A mere bowel movement doesn't get at the cause. It takes those good, old Carter's Little Liver Pills to get these two pounds of bile flowing freely and make you feel "up and up." Harmless, gentle, yet amazing in making bile flow freely. Ask for Carter's Little Liver Pills by name. Stubbornly refuse anything else. 25c at all drug stores. CLEANS WALLS NEW WAY! Ends Drudgery ... SeBIs on Sight AMAZING NEW WALL CLEANER.

Suite 178, 70 6th Ave., New Yerk realization that he was the object of their mirth — he and his fifteen-year-old tuxedo ! Memories of high school days came crowding into his mind. Nothing would ever go right for him, he was convinced, and his shy soul shriveled inside him. He never knew how he got through that evening's work. The casting director didn't forget him, however, and he began to receive calls more or less regularly for extra work. Finally, came the day of his "big break." He was called in to make a test. This couldn't be really happening to him! He arrived at the studio in fifteen minutes flat, made up and ready to shoot, and was sent promptly over to the test stage. Kent became more and more nervous as minutes passed and he sat waiting for the test to get under way. The director finally walked in. "Mighty nice of you to come over," was his greeting to Kent, as he slapped him on the back. "Knew we could count on you in a pinch." Slightly dazed, Kent stammered: "Well, it's mighty nice of you," he began. A sudden flurry at the door of the stage interrupted. "Miss Dodd, this, is Mr. Taylor," he was introduced to a tall, stately blonde who had just arrived. "Mr. Taylor was nice enough to come over to help you make your test." So that was it ! He was merely helping someone make a test. Claire Dodd, who had just come out from New York. It wasn't for him at all. Kent's heart sank. Just another disappointment ! When the test was viewed in the projection room, however, the studio executives were immediately attracted to this pleasing young man, quite as much as to Claire Dodd. They were both given contracts ! The path of a young player, Kent soon discovered, was a rough one. Just because you had a contract in your pocket didn't mean you were a full-fledged actor, by any means. All the patience he possessed was called upon during the year that he was being coached for more important roles — going from bit to bit — but never seeming to get anywhere. Kent, as he had always been, was a hard worker. He had of necessity been schooled in the art of waiting — and being able to "take it." He had within himself the courage of his own convictions. He was still positive that some day he would get his chance to do something worth while. This opportunity came, strangely enough, through no less a person than Mae West. Mae was lining up the cast for "I'm No Angel," and after looking at tests of practically every young man in Hollywood, chose Kent for one of the important roles in the picture. Never had he been so excited ! The thought of working with the great West — the woman who had set the whole country talking just a few months before — was overwhelming. This experience was the most valuable Kent had ever had. From the first day, Mae took a decided interest in this young man's ambitions. His seriousness about his career appealed to her and she went out of her way to give him the benefit of her years of training. No one person he had ever met helped him as much as Mae. With renewed confidence, he went to see the preview of the picture. As he sat with the audience, watching his performance on the screen, he died a thousand deaths. He was, he thought, terrible. He would never be any good. He might as well forget this acting business and go back to selling awnings. He went to the studio the next morning, determined to ask for a release from POST YOURSELF!
