Pathex Motion Pictures 41 "Milan" No. T 15 One Reel $1.00 The white cathedral, four hundred years in the building, with its thousands of white marble statues; then to Pisa with its Campo Santo; and the famous leaning tower, besides many other interesting scenes. "Notre Dame De Paris" No. T 16 One Reel $1.00 The magnificent shrine of Gothic Art which has affected all French life and thought; pictures showing the principal details and striking views of the great architectural mass as a whole, with "Tout Pans" rolling beneath. "Rome" No. T 17 One Reel $100 The Eternal City. Views of St. Peter's, glimpses of the Vatican and the Castle San Angelo. Lanciani's excavations of the old Forum, the Coliseum and the overflowing Tiber. The old and the modern. "Ruins of Douigga, Tunis" No. T 18 One Reel $1.00 The Greek, the Roman, the Carthaginian, mingle their rrifold memorials in this film, which in a moment rolls back the ages" for the modern eye. "The Camel" No. T 19 One Reel $1.00 Some, at least, of the mean things Mr. Kipling has said about the camel are brought to life together with some of the attributes which cause the Arab to regard the animal as a gift of God. A highly fascinating "character film — even if the character is not human. "The Great Moslem Prayer" No. T 20 One Reel $1.00 The aversion of the Mohammedan to admitting the Christian into his places of worship is well known. This, then is a remarkable film, showing the great Friday Orison. "Timbuctoo" No. T 21 One Reel $100 Tennyson's first prize poem had for its subject "Timbuctoo." He never saw the city. Recently both airplanes and "caterpillar" autos have established trade lines. The city, in which the Arab and the African mingle in hundreds of racial strains, is worth the seeing.
