Photoplay Magazine — Advertising Section 119 La Tosca (Continued) Scarpia had deceived her after all. Mario had breathed his last love vow; never more would she doubt him. His breast was riddled with bullets. Mad with grief, she rose to her feet. And then from all sides of the Castle poured forth soldiers. "You are under arrest," they shouted. "It is Scarpia's orders." With a wild scream she broke from them and scrambled to the top of the parapet. "Scarpia! Go find him! Nevermore will he give you orders. I have stilled his lying lips forever. Scarpia will not answer and you call him." She flung one rounded arm up toward the sky. "He lies weltering in his own blood and it was this hand that sent him there!" The soldiers surged toward the top of the parapet, with oaths and menacing cries. Magnificently she defied them. "Think you your vile hands shall ever touch the living Tosca? Never! I go to join my Mario!" She leaped. There was a splash and a choking cry. And then the turbid, yellow Tiber swept its freight along without a sound. That Imp Constance (Continued from page 31) With my face covered from the lens, I wailed for them to stop and let me out, but I might as well have appealed to the moon. When it came time for me to be found, I was almost frozen." Her mood changed suddenly to that of a wicked child and she bubbled in silent amusement. "But I got even with Daddy Giblyn," she chuckled, "when we. went to Boston. A couple of stunning looking girls called on him in regard to entering motion picture work. They were quite prominent socially and beautifully gowned, and he was having a very nice time." The imp on the couch narrowed her eyes in ecstatic enjoyment of the memory. "I wandered aimlessly through the hotel lobby, and as I neared him and his visitors, called out casually, 'Hello, Daddy!' They were thoroughbreds, but just the same I saw that my shot had told. Conversation wasn't quite so animated, and when Mother came in they heard my greeting to her. With one accord they rose and one of them said sweetly, holding out her hand, 'Thank you so much, Mr. Giblyn, for your kindly advice. You've been so helpful. But we mustn't detain you any longer from your wife and daughter.' " I laughed with her as I got up to go. "But," I protested, "why are you going to California?" She beamed on me happily and kissed her fingertips to an imaginary weather god. "Why ask such a foolish question?" she queried. "I'm going out to the most perfect climate in the world, where the sun shines all the time and they don't know what a blizzard looks like." One week later she sent me the following telegram: "It rains here every day. They call it the rainy season. Somebody lied. Home shortly." Your Choice!
