A gripping drama presented in a novel way. What is to be done? The question concerns a man's life or a - woman's honor. If tl1e_one Is to be saved. the other is bound to be be- .smirched. in both cases-the parties , involved are absolutely innocent. Yet . accidents are so clear. beyond dispute. and to all appearances so conclusive ' are the facts in the cast that a life is to be snuffed out lf—lf the one person who can rectify things/will not come. forth: yet If he dare do so it posit- ively means the sure death of a wom- an's honm. What’s to be done? Well. then. if you must know. see "Life or , Honor." and after you have been held in suSpense that has gripped you as in a. vise, you will be pleasantly relieved after having been kept wondering as you followed the tremendous ac:lon of 1 the drama.
