LADY AUDLEY'S SECRET.
On Thursday, May 16th, the Imp Films Company release a two-reel subject, "LADY AUDLEY'S SECRET." This picture will be as great a success as, if not greater, than "FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA" or "SHAMUS O'BRIEN."
A word about the book, "LADY AUDLEY'S SECRET." It is a novel of English society life, which was written by Miss M. E. Braddon, some thirty or forty years ago, and it shares with "East Lynne," "Uncle Tom's Cabin" and one or two other books, the distinction of being among the most popular books ever written. It is perennially a best seller.
"LADY AUDLEY'S SECRET" retains the interest of the reader from cover to cover of the volume; it is a dramatic, poignant, touching, and pathetic story appealing direct to the heart.
Now, we cannot reprint the book, "LADY AUDLEY'S SECRET," as we reprinted the poem of "SHAMUS O'BRIEN" for the guidance of our readers, but we advise every one of them to get hold of a copy of it, or better still, buy a supply of them cheap and distribute them in their territory. Anybody who reads the book will surely want to see the picture.
Remember, May 16th, the two-ree subject, "LADY AUDLEY'S SE CRET, founded on one of the great est English novels ever written.

IMP PLAYERS:
VIOLET HORNER.
"Now a little life history. I started as a church singer, being soprano soloist in different churches; from there the stage; a few New York productions, and, last of all, pictures, which I like best of all." This is Violet Horner's own account of her career. It is direct and simple, like the girl herself. For many months past Imp fans have been asking, "Who is that nice acting little girl in the pictures of whom we do not hear much?" This is typical of Miss Horner. She has grown into the good graces of Imp fans by direct and simple means, that is by working hard in the pictures. She has made many successes in Imp comedies and now and again her pleasing face has been seen in an Imp drama. Recently she has assumed leads. In "A CAVE MAN WOOING," to be released on May 20th, she plays opposite King Baggot. It is the part of a girl who is won by sheer brute force. She is clay in the hands of her pursuer and very plastic clay; so plastic, indeed, that she scores a remarkable success.
Miss Horner also plays in the great Imp war drama, "THE PERIL," to be released on May 30th. In this play King Baggot is the military captain under suspicion, and Violet Horner is his fiancee. This gives the young lady opportunity of making still further progress in her work.
I asked Violet the other day if she liked her work, and she replied, "I just love it." And when you see her at work, you realize that she is heart and soul in it. Unquestionably the girl will be successful along the path of hard work in picture making.
