Forbes-Robertson in Jerome K. Jerome's -famous story To a dingy and sordid boarding house in gloomy Bloomsbury Square, London, peopled with mean-spirited and unhappy failures, comes a stranger, seeking quarters. The stranger, by refusing to see in the scheming landlady and her quarrelsome boarders anything but the best, succeeds in calling out the best in each, and one after the other they become morally rehabilitated. Before his kind smile and understanding words their bickerings and meanness disappear. They grow more tolerant toward each other, and at the same time strangely happy. Finally, when love has replaced hatred as the governing spirit of the household, the Stranger passes from their midst as mysteriously as he came. The story is in a large measure symbolical, but aside from its spiritual message it has many humorous and dramatic qualities. The screen is fortunate to have secured for the Stranger, Sir. J. ForbesRobertson, the actor, who created the role and for eight successive seasons played it in Great Britain, the United States and Canada. 4919 feet standard length — on 5 reels Rental $6.25 Fighting Blood The "Fighting Blood" series taken from H.
