152 MOTION PICTURE MAGAZINE Olive S. — James Cruze had the lead in "The Woman Pays" (Thanhouser). Your letter was very interesting. Tango Bill. — Edison has not secured anyhody as yet to take the place of Mary Fuller, who left for the Universal. She leaves a hard place to fill. Christy H. — So you want me to read "Broad Highway." Jean Darnell has recovered, but not sufficiently to play. She writes for this magazine frequently. She will probably return to Thanhouser when she resumes playing. H. P. T. — James O'Neill had the lead in "The Count of Monte Cristo." No, your letter was not too short. Just right. L. J. F., Troy.— Yes; Earle Martz was the store-boy in "A Four-footed Desperado" (Edison). Carlton King was the lead. Harry Beaumont in "An Absentminded Mother" (Edison). Mae Abbey was Mrs. Grayson in the same. William Bailey in "Let No Man Escape." J. U. S. — Constance Talmadge is Norma's sister. Mrs. Costello is Georgia Maurice. She is very beautiful. Rita Bori was the mischiefmaker in "The Mischief maker" (Vitagraph). Pride will have a fall bonnet. ThelmaThe pictures in the Gallery are not for sale, but all of the scenes or illustrations in the magazine are for sale. Reggy — The "movies" are a beastly bore. Bah jove! one cawnt go out between the acts, dont y'know. Cleo — Yahs, and they always have it so dark one cawnt show off one's clothes. Write us what you want, and we will give you a price. Roscoe Arbuckle in "Fatty and the Heiress" (Keystone). O. A. D.— Olive Drake was Lily in "Lily of the Valley" (Selig). "Home, Sweet Home" was taken in California, and is said to be one of Griffith's best. Henry J. M. — I have no temper now. I lost it entirely on reading your letter. Eugenie P. — Your letter was indeed interesting. We have never printed Belle Adair's picture. I believe that Sarah Bernhardt is coming to America this winter to make us another farewell visit. She is about my age — in the early seventies. Fritz, N. Z. — Glad to hear you have secured a position. Will always be glad to hear from you. The reason people inquire about Vitagraph players, is because they dont read or remember the cast that is always given on the film. Mrs. T. — I am sure that I do not know what kind of beauty cream John Bunny uses for his complexion. What silly questions some of you people ask! And some of them are offensive. B. B., Wellington. — Thanks for the card. Yes ; New Zealand postal notes are acceptable, but be sure to allow for the discount in this country. Fred S. — Bess Meredith was the girl in "The Cure" (Joker). Jere Austin was Dr. Brent in "Nina of the Theater." Frances Mc. — I advise you to go to the theater just the same, but to ignore the manager, since he slighted you. L. J. F., Troy. — Herbert Rawlinson and Anna Little in "The Sob Sister" (Rex). Mabel Trunnelle and Herbert Prior in "Meg o' the Mountains" (Edison). Cleo Madison and George Larkin in "The Severed Hand" (Powers). Warren Kerrigan and Vera Sisson in "Out of the Valley" (Victor). O. A. C. Lund and Barbara Tennant in "Allah — 3311" (Eclair). William Clifford and Marie Walcamp in "A Mexican Spy in America." E. B. B., New Orleans. — Octavia HaDdworth is with Excelsior Company. Your letter was very interesting. I knew a hen that laid two eggs a day, but one of them was a porcelain egg. Freeman. — Mr. Weidemann and Asta Nielsen in "The Devil's Assistant" (Pathe). Rose Tapley in "My Official Wife" (Vitagraph). Ray McKee and Edyth Anderton in "That Terrible Kid." Hester H. — Romaine Fielding is still in Denver. George Morgan was the violinist in "Melody and Art" (Biograph). Mr. Adair was Captain Hood in "Romance of the Sea" (Broncho). All players like to receive observing letters. Vyrgynya. — Have heard the rumor that Warren Kerrigan has left Universal to form a company of his own, but it has not been confirmed. Where there is so much smoke, there is usually some fire, so watch out. Last I heard of him, he was well enough to sit up and take nourishment.
