RED LIGHT GRAPHIC, JULY 4, 177(!
Noted Actress Held for Ransom!
Famed Follywood Fae
Fares Feebly From
Fatiguing Fracas
CHICAGO—Fae AlaBromo, movie actress
from Follywood, today disappeared after one
of the most daylight brazen kidnappings yet
seen here in many a moon. The popular movie
star was dining at the Fay grill when suddenly
she was besieged by three Western bandits,
and hurried away in a heavily-curtained
automobile.
"Big Bill" Thompson will personally lead
the search for the "sweetheart of the silver
sheet," and Bill means action. When interviewed
in his home while playing poker with
some of his cronies, Bill remarked, "We will
find Fae if it takes all year to do it. This
crime is a reflection on the city of Chicago,
and we must clear the name of our fair town.
Never before has such a thing happened while
I was in power."
The mayor revealed exclusively to the Red
Light Graphic that he expects to call out the
navy and the arm}', and if King George butts
in, every history book will be destroyed. As
for the Prince of Wales, Bill said that he would
get rid of him by letting him ride a horse.
"It never fails to work," said our darling
politician.
Meanwhile all Follywood is anxiously
awaiting word on the latest developments in
the kidnapping. Adoulphe Bantleon offered
three thousand dollars reward for the capture
of the kidnappers.
Fae came to Chicago to rest up for her next
picture, Passionate Pash, according to her
director, Funzo Ottavius. She had been working
hard, and the would-be vacation in the
Windy City was to avert a possible nervous
breakdown.
Last night, Fae was seen with a tall, handsome
escort at the Hit 'Em Hard Nite Club.
The escort wore a dark blue Chesterfield coat,
three machine guns, and a mustache. The
detectives think that he is an important link
in tlic case, and if the missing link is found
I he mystery might be cleared.

Use Kisterine.
Never kiss with your mouth open.
Eat out. Nothing kills a husband's affection
as fast as a wife's biscuits. Usually they also
kill the husband.
