for April 1936 95 The patic, facing the west, commands a view that sweeps across the hills to the Pacific Ocean, gleaming in the distance. Even in winter, Henry has his breakfast, which consists of a glass of milk and two slices of dry toast, served out here if the sun is shining. The patio is enclosed on all sides and becomes a perfect corral for Son and Boy, and along side is a large aviary ; I'm sure the half dozen colorful Java rice birds are unaware they are in captivity. Seven cats, mama and her family of six, which Henry inherited with the house, also belong to his menagerie. Henry explained that he found them huddled in a big flower pot, savage and wild, but now they amicably eat off the same plates with the dogs and all is harmony. In the terraced garden, back of the patio, are apricot, avocado, and fig trees ; also, a sturdy lemon, now loaded with fruit. At the end of the garden is the tennis court which is used daily and practically all day Sunday, for Henry loves to have his friends out to play. His particular hobby is his very fine Leica camera and he spends most of his leisure hours fussing with it. He has taken over the laundry, off the back porch, for his dark-room, and has assembled all the necessary equipment for developing his film and making enlargements, and he showed me some of his pictures that would surely win prizes for sheer artistry. Sitting in the living-room I felt the spell of its pervading serenity. There was no sense of hurry, or fret, or fiction, so prevalent everywhere. This is, perhaps, a reflection of Henry's own calm attitude toward life. Nothing disturbs him, for he has himself under perfect control. Naturally, this handsome and very talented young star suggests romance, but I discovered there have been few love incidents. Now comes pretty Shirley Ross, and their friendship is one of the sweetest in Hollywood. Noticing her portrait on the piano, I mentioned her, but he laughingly parried all serious questions, saying they were both very busy and there were no wedding plans. As yet! Later? Well, perhaps — but one can never tell about the future ; it is useless to plan. Greet each day as a new adventure, that's his theory. And that ended that subject ! With his even disposition, his utter lack of "temperament," it is difficult to vision Henry as ever having been married to the tempestuous Margaret Sullavan. He mentioned her name — easily, casually, several times. Radio's latest gift to the films! Patricia Wilder, air star, has been signed for the next Fred Astaire-Ginger Rogers picture. GOOD NIGHT, SISTER! HAVE A GOOD TIME! *mk SHE WAS TOO FAT! And then she made up her mind to get thin and did, without hard exercise or starvation diet Nobody loves a fat girl — but why mope about it when you can so easily get rid of that excess fat by means of a tried and true corrective, known and recommended by physicians the world over? Many years ago medical science discovered that obesity — when an abnormal condition — is caused by the lack of an important element which the body normally supplies. That element — which is the chief ingredient of Marmola — has since been prescribed to thousands of overweight women, with amazingly beneficial results. It is taken with their meals. They do not wear themselves out with exercising, do not starve themselves, nor drain their systems with drastic purgatives. Yet day by day they have felt lighter, more alert, more energetic. Soon they find their weight satisfactory. The excess fat has simply slipped away, revealing the trim and slender figure underneath. Sounds like a miracle, but thousands of women who have taken Marmola as directed — 4 tablets a day — might well tell you it's a demonstrated fact. Indeed, since 1907, more than 20 million packages of Marmola have been purchased — proof positive that nothing succeeds like success. Marmola is put up by one of the leading medical laboratories of America. Start today! You will soon experience Marmola's benefits. When you have gone far enough, stop taking Marmola. And you will bless the day when you first discovered this marvelous reducing agent! Marmola is on sale by all dealers — from coast to coast. Be an ARTIST!

STUDIO 174, WASHINGTON SCHOOL OF 1115— I5TH ST., N.W., WASHINGTON, D 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.
