When “.ltlth-t'y" \\'li.~ first publish-

was [tl‘Ot‘liillllt'tl the most nhsorhipgiy
interesting and human story ever
writit-n by the English autltor. This
mpnmliou was fully sustained w'hcn
reproduced as a photophty It would
rank among lllc‘ best ever shown.

The Froiuunn'Amusmuent Corpora-

known to tie-ed repetition. It is suffi-

‘cient to'suy that every one of the

many real great situations have been
faithfully reproduced. Among the
most remarkable of the scenes are
the meetinz between Jztf‘fcry Pres-
cott and Liosha in the Balkan moun-
tains; the discovery of Doria lty her
husband's theft of the manuscript for
his great novel: the emotional ef-
forts of Jeffery to control hinteelf at
the wedding of Doria to Adrian; the
tempest-topsoil freighter upon which
which Jttfi‘ery and-Liosha took their
lutit'~br:tined trip ;‘ the hold of the ship
when the cargo broko loose and thr
.slut's astonishment at the amazing on-
tics of thc unscrupulous liendlhook.

A cast of unusual excellence was sc-
lected for the film production of

uluted that no f)ll‘."‘l‘ actor could play
"Jeffery." llis wishes, of course, were
carried out. ‘

Mr. Smith is the famous leadin";
man of the lecitintate stage. ilit
services hate been constantly in tl"‘-
ntand for parts that combine a man
of giant stature and equally great
dramatic power. Just before appear-

was for two years leading,' man with
Margaret lllington in “The Lie.“ Ills
notahlc screen appearance was In the
leading parts' in “The Builder of
Bridges.” “John Glady‘s Honor," and
"The Mornls of Marcus."

To Miss Eleanor \\‘oodt‘ul‘f was en-
trusted the role of Doria, attd by her
splendid work, she makes it stand
out like a cameo. Her last appear.-
ance in th‘é“ spoken drama was in
“The Five Ffankforters." Miss Wood-
