RETURN ENGAGEMENT, MISS TEXAS GUINAN, SOUBRETTE COMEDIENNE IN "THE KISSING GIRL " SATURDAY MATINEE MAT-INEE AND NIGHT, AND SUNDAY NIGHT, FEB. 4TH AND 5TH. "KISSING GIRL" Return Engagement Engage-ment February 4 and L SATURDAY MATINEE Miss Texas Guinan has evolved something new for the souvenir hunter, hunt-er, and established a fad which is growing in popularity all over the country. Miss Guinan Is prima donna of "The Kissing Girl," tho new Vlnnese comic I opera which is coming to tho Ogden Theatre on its return engagement and as she is very pretty her autographed photos are much hi demand. After having written "Yours Truly," Texas Guinan," "Best Regards, Texas Guinan" Guin-an" and similar meaningless inscriptions inscrip-tions several hundred times It began to pall upon her. So she bought for herself a llttlo Ink pad. and now when she wants to give nnyone an autographed picture of herself, she plants a dainty thumb firmly on the ink pad and then upon the corner of tho photo, leaving a "Pudd'nhead Wilson" trade mark that Is as distinctive as it Is original. "Although hand writing exports declare de-clare that the hand writing Is an index in-dex to the character" said Miss Guinan, Guin-an, "I think tho thumb print is much more so. In addition to using mine for a signature, I have collected photographs pho-tographs of all my friends marked In the same way, and it Is remarkable how similar the lines are of persons of similar personality " The fad was introduced by Miss Guinan In Chicago, where tho opera had a long run at the Cort Theater, and before tho close of tho season a' great manq society women had taken tak-en It up, and It now outrivals picture post cards and all other souvenir fads j In the Windy City.
