Class 8— Dramas 127 KiLliL NO. TITLE PRODUCKK she leaves his bedside to go to a social function, which is the first ray of sunshine in her married life. On her return she administers the medicine to her husband, who by a trick has mixed two similar medicine boxes so that he receives an overdose of sleeping powder instead of the harmless Aspirin, which she had intended. Discovering the error too late, she telephones in desperation to her escort, whose brother (Monte Blue) is the District Attorney. These two brothers are the sons of a minister, who is also the guardian of a delightful girl (Norma Shearer), who has long been in love with Monte, but despairs of obtaining a declaration. She does, however, inveigle him into a romantic situation with a most delightful love scene and she is quick to construe an affectionate caress into a binding engagementGradually a very real and strong affection develops between Lucretia (Irene Rich), now a wealthy widow, and Monte. He makes up his mind to tell Norma that he does not really love her and, therefore, their engagement should be terminated, but an unfortunate accident to his father, which threatens to end fatally, causes the old man to selfishly insist upon an immediate marriage between his son and his ward. Monte yields only because he has mistaken an affectionate attitude of Irene towards his brother, whom she is trying to save from the effects of a gambling debt. Too late, they all realize the terrible mistake that has been committed in the hasty marriage. Then follows a terrifically exciting series of adventures in which Irene and Norma liee in their night garments through miles of burning forest with wolves, deer and bears also seeking safety. An apparent position of safety on a high trestle is destroyed by a burning powder-house, blowing up an adjacent dam and precipitating a torrential flood on which the trestle is washed away and the two girls struggle madly for their lives in the turbulent water. The spectator follows breathlessly from hairbreadth escapes to almost imminent destruction, and after the final thrill comes the beautiful ending which will send every spectator away enthusiastic in his praise of the production. 5,893 feet standard length — on 6 reels Rental $9.00 8054 Code SAKU The Return of Draw Egan Triangle Featuring William S. Hart, Robert McKim, Marguery Wilson and Louise Glaum Draw Egan is the head of a band of notorious outlaws, who are closely pursued by the sheriff and a large posse. Up hill and down vale, through stupendous moimtain passes, ride the outlaws, hotly pursued. At a cabin in the mountains they make their last stand, and a terrific bombardment occurs. The bandits make their escape through a trapdoor. The cowardly member of the band, "Arizona Joe," sneaks out of the backdoor, only to fall into the clutches of the posse. The band scatters and a little later we see Draw Egan alone maintaining his usual reputation for bravery in a saloon quarrel, where he is narrowly watched by Mr. Buckton, who is looking for a town marshal for the neighboring town of Yellow Dog. Next we see Draw Egan as the champion of the reform element in the town of Yellow Dog, maintaining law and order in the saloon and closing it on Sunday. He is a model town marshal, but much of the credit of his rule is due to his affection for Myrtle Buckton, the daughter of his sponsor. "Arizona Joe" escapes from the penitentiary, returns to the town, recognizes Select plenty of alternates
