We didn't happen to have the cast for that old Biograph, that was all. It would take up too much space here to tell the difference between Licensed and Independents. Send in a stamped, addressed envelope. Your letter is interesting. Helen L. R. — You are right about that. You dont like to see Bessie Sankey as Mr. Anderson's sister, and in the next picture as his sweetheart. Blanche Sweet and Henry Walthall in "Three Friends." W. Chrystie Miller was the elderly man in "The Unwelcome Guest." . Gertrude Bambridge was the girl in "Brothers." It is better to be wise than witty. That's why we decided not to be witty.

Guy Coombs and Marian Cooper the leads in "The Woe of Battle." The Pest. — Glad you joined the Correspondence Club. Perhaps you refer to Burt King and Franklyn Hall. Your votes are still for F. X. Bushman, are they? Babbie. — You refer to Alice Hollister. Calamity Anne is a lady every time. That's Walter Miller in that Biograph. Fine! Anthony. — Claire McDowell was the blind girl in "The Wrong Bottle" (Biograph). William Ehfe in that Melies. What did you think of Pearl's picture?
