INTERNATIONAL FILM TRADERS UNKNOWN MOTHEB— (Three reels).— A little girl was born to Leonla, Count Robertl's sweetheart. The Count denounces the girl as his own daughter of an unknown mother. Egle (the newly bom's name) was taken away from Leonla and put into an orphan asylum. Count Roberti and Leonla separate, after the Count has provided for her, and she leaves the city. Fifteen years have lapsed. Egle returns to her father's bouse. Count Roberti, who gives her a very loving reception. After a few days, Egle makes ber debut into society. Her grace and beauty attracted the admiration of all the guests, and particularly that of Luciano, the Marquis' son. Luciano and Egle love each other. Luciano tells bis father he loves Egle and Induces him to go to Count Roberti's house and ask for Egle's band. The Count accepts the request, but feels It his duty to reveal to the Marquis that Egle is the daughter of an unknown mother. Hearing such unexpected news, the Marquis compells Luciano to forget Egle and leave the city. Egle cannot understand the reason of Luciano's sudden departure. She starts to guess that in her life there is a mystery that she cannot penetrate. One day, Count Roberti receives a letter from Milan. It is from Leonla, who asks money of him In memory of the past and their daughter. Egle surprises the Count reading that letter. But the Count forbids her to look at It. One day. Egle finds the key of a secret drawer and is tempted by the desire of opening it in order to discover the cause of so many mysteries. She finds several love letters, among which are those of Leonla. Egle has discovered that her mother is not dead, but lives far away, unknown to her. A few days later, Count Roberti happens to be the victim of an automobile accident and Egle having remained alene In the world, decides to go in search of her mother to reveal her identity and live with her. In the meantime Leonla, who had been abandoned by the Count, had fallen in other company. Her best friend now Is Mario. Egle's visit was unexpected. Leonla Is more pleased on hearing the invitation of Egle to live in Count Roberti's house, than by Jhe meeting with her daughter. Leonla follows Egle to Rome accompanied by Mario. The latter starts to love Egle, thus awakening the jealousy of Leonla. But Egle, who bad learned of the return of Luciano, rejects all other proposals. Terrible circumstances make Leonla believe that Egle Is ber rival and full of disdain she brings against her daughter the most vulgar and infamous accusation. Afraid and horrified, Egle runs to Luciano for aid. The old Marquis, learning of all the sorrows that had fallen Egle, consents to the marriage. But when the two lovers returned to Count Roberti's house, they found that Leonia had been the victim of her lover's brutal anger. A NOBLE LIE— (Three reels). —Celia (a sweet and honest girl who works as governess in a good family where she is very much loved, has the misfortune of having a drunken and brutal father, who wastes all of her savings in the tavern and in coarse company. One night, while Celia was alone and in charge of the little girl, her father with his companions force an entrance into the house, where they rob a jewel case. Celia, suddenly hearing a noise, runs out of the room and there finds before her, her father. Celia, who has not the courage to raise an alarm, bars the entrance to the room where the little girl lies asleep. At last, worn out by motion, she faints. The ruffians would have liked to pass over her body, but her father in a moment of repentance opposes it, and they pass out. When the masters return home they find Celia still insensible and gather that they have been visited by robbers. Fortunately, the little girl Is safe and sound, and has not even been awakened. The parents are grateful to Celia and question her as to the robbers. The girl declares she does not remember anything, and the other servants say that they were not aware of what bad happened, being in another part of the building. It happens that while the police are visiting a tavern they arrest a gang of rufilans, Celia's father being among them. The magistrate summons Celia and her master to his oflSee and has all the arrested brought before them. Celia again meets her father! "Do you recognize anybody amongst these?" asks the judge. "No," answers the girl. As there Is no proof against them, the arrested are set free. Cella's father and his accomplices now being sure of immunity have only one Idea, to sell the stolen jewels. But while the bargain is being settled Cella's father receives a letter from his daughter, as follows: "To save you, I have sworn falselv. I shut myself In a convent to repent my sin and yours." The criminal drunkard and heartless father Is touched. Remorse begins to work and when his companions order him to quickly give the jewels over to the broker. i>e refuses and chases them away. Still following tne good Impulse, be takes the jewel box, runs to the bouse of Celia's master, calls the little girl who is playing in the garden, puts into her hands the precious case, and goes off. His accomplices followed him, saw what be did, and full of rage, get bold of him in a lonely spot, call blm a traitor and beating him terribly, leave bim as dead on the ground. Celia's father, whose health had already been ruined by his dissolute life, cannot withstand those blows, but he has redeemed himself, and bis good Celia comes to his bedside and comforts him during that supreme moment.
