ST. JAMES’ THEATRE Two of the greatest personalities on the American screen are co-starred for the first time in Afctro-Goldwyn-Mayer’s talking picture adaptation 61 F. Marion Crawford’s classic love story, “The AVhite Sister,” which opens to-morrow at the St. Janies’ Theatre. They are Helen Hayes, winner of the recent Motion Picture Academy award, and Clark Gable, universally conceded to be the talkie’s outstanding matinee idol. Aliss Hayes, last seen as the nurse in “A Farewell to Arms,” this time plays the role of an aristocratic Italian girl who on the eve of her wedding to a man of her father’s choice, falls in love with a young officer in rhe Italia.i air force. A clandestine romance results and the father, in a desperate attempt to call a halt to the proceedings, is involved in an automobile smash-up and dies. When the voung officer subsequently is called to the front and is I’-perled killed, the gi:l determines abandon the world and to shut herself up in a convent as a AVhite Sister. The intensely dramatic climax of the story occurs when the officer returns from the war and confronts the nun who had believed him to be no longer alive. The situation is said to bo the most stirring ever enacted by the talented Miss Hayes. Lewis Stone, who supported Miss Hayes in “The Sin of ATadelon Claudet,” is cast in another strong character role as the father in “The Whito Sister.’ ’ SUMMING UP THE EVIDENCE MANY PEOPLE HAVE BEEN CALLED AT WITNESSES Week after week has been published the testimony of Wanganui people—kidney sufferers, backache victims, people who have endured many forms of kidney, bladder or urinary disorders These witnesses have used Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills.

Higgjns, 326 Victoria Avenue, AVanganui, says: “Aly husband suffered from lumbago-like pains across the small of the back, and he was often so bad that he could hardly get about. His rest at night was broken, and, in consequence ho had no energy for anything. After trying different remedies without deriving any benefit Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills wore brought under his notice, so he bought a bottle. They worked wonders in his case, six bottles curing him completely.” Some years later, Airs. Higgins says: ”My husband has had no return of his old complaint since Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills cured him.
