' Putin. Frederick no Faithful Wife
in “The Woman in the Case"

if ypu are one of these who auto
mule-Iii connect the name of Pauline
Frederick with the great roles of
“Zaza,” “Bella Donna,” and the other
“vampires" which she has interpreted
ion the screen, then there is a great
surprise in store for you when the
Famous Players adaption of Clyde
Fitch's great drama, "The Woman in
the Case," will be the Paramount at-
traction at the Palace Saturday. For in
this celebrated play the great emo-
tional actreSS appears. not as the Wt»
man. but as the devoted wife who

risks her name and her personal safe- '

ty in the struggle which she wages
against the infuriated woman who is
attempting to have Julian Rolfe con-
demoed on the charge of murder in re.
venge for his having robbed her of 11
victim, his best f11cnd

it is a glowing t1ibutc to the genius
of this great actress that she makes

Margatet one of the most appeallntl

and lovablt- women that have evc1 ap-
peatcd on tho scxeen. But she is not
of the helpless variety which weeps
copiously 0\'(l‘ hcr misfortunes When
Matvarct learns that her hu'sbnnd has
fallen into Claire's trap, she steels
her nerves for the ordeal and deter-
mines to fighl'fire with fire. As a re»
sult, this girl of gentle birth minglcs
with Claire as one of hot
and wins her confidence until. after
many heartbreaking failutcs,sl1o sud-
denly succeeds in forcing a confession
out of Claire and satcs her husband.

in support of Miss Frederick thorc
appear a number of prominent players,
among them are Alan liale, Marlo
ChambersJ‘aul Gordon and Clarence
Handysldes.

her own measure. it gives her full
opportunity to bring into play the
1aryiug moods of which she is mis-
tress—of sunshine and shadow, of
playfulness and of struggle againkt im-
pending death. There is romance, too,
of the happy sort, in which Margot is
indirectly a beneficiary.

The story opens with one of the
tragedies of the sea with which fish-
ing communities are only too familiar.
We see the small craft beaten about
by the waves off shore; we see a mast
fall. The loss of the crew means that
Mac'l‘avlsh, the head of the clan, is
gone, leaving Marget as the head. it

15 not until she takes the MacTavish
lash and forces aflendance at-churcb
that she assumes the real leadership.
She plays no favorites. There are
tcndcr scenes, too, in abundance—of
the love- making between Marget and
Jamie, of the betrothal, of the renun-
elation. and of the reunion.

Matt Moore is Jamie, and finely he
plays the patt of the Scotch buy who,

and the falling to his knees of Pit-1
cairn when 1111 sees the little craft‘
bearing the hood of his clan slowly
sinking in the water.
The struggle of Margot in the cabin
of the boat and her rescue by Jamie
will thrill. A door has swung across
the trap leading into the cabin, and
with her kitten in her arms Margot
is imprisoned with the water rising
about her. Ono of the more striking
scenes is the bl‘ll‘Ollllil ceremony, with

This is an easy proposition. Julius

of amusements lovers. As a light on-

by his acting as well as his singing.
lie won his spurs in the spoken dra-
ma. And then he gained great popu-
larity in motion pictures.

So, when a screen patron sees Sieg-
er's name that patron will realize that
an unusually good production is in
sight. Steger . himself is known
around the studios as being hypercrit-
ical. He is a rattling good director
as well as a good actor. He knows it
good play in the reading of it, and a
production in which he stars is sure
to have merit.

In the ease of “The Lost Triumph,"
he worked over it for weeks with Max-
well Kerger of the Rolfe and Columbia
studios, and when the two men had
finished their efforts, Steger said:
“At last we have something that will

cheat!
Yo! Ho! Ho and a bottle of rum.“

then, they 111d not heard of Pauline

ant souls and did not go to motion pic-
ture shows.

But when these same pirates cap-
tured a beautiful maiden whom they
dragged off to be thc favorite of their
chief, they little knew what disaster
they were courting, for the lovely
Miss Frederick killed their leader
when he attempted to prove himself
her lord and master.

Of course this all happened in
motion picture—“The Slave Market
in which Pauline Frederick is starred
by the Famous Players Film Company.

Save Coal By
Burning Gas

BY operating your kitchen range with a
low, econonomical fire, generating only suL
ficient heat to properly warm the room, you
will be surprised at the quantity of coal you
can save. 5

NOW, if you wish to prepare a‘meal, don’t
disturb the coal fire. Undoubtedly the room
is comfortably warm, the‘fire checked and in
condition to last for hours. Rather than start
the caol fire. cook your meal on your gas
range and save money by so doing.

GET THE IDEA. TRY IT!
