TO THE Hs45 JOHNNY BELL, 325 E. 14th 8treet, New York FILMS arch 22d, 190 A story of a wife's sacrifice, which is misconstrued and almost leads to the estranging of a devoted couple. An artist is struggling along for recognition, but things are going badly with him. His wife pretends to get a position teaching piano, but instead is working in a laundry. The artist sells one of his pictures and hastens to the Music Conservatory to tell her of his good fortune, and, not finding her, thinks she is deceiving him. An accident to his wife at the laundry shows him the true color of things. ■" OBb I ^S "AND A LITTLE CHILD SHALL LEAD THEM" One of the prettiest end most touching film stories ever made. It shows how a Ik tie child brings together a couple who, through a trivial quarrel, are about to separate. The work of the child.is equally clever. Released Maroh 25th, 1909 BURGLAR'S MISTAKE" A Thrilling Story off an Attempt at Blackmail A wealthy banker in the day of his youth was guilty of a trifling indiscretion, that although of little consequence, he wished buried. An erstwhile friend has evidence which he threatens to exhibit if he does not give up handsomely. This he yields to, and the wretch, after squandering his easy-gotten wealth, becomes a party to a burglary. Imagine the surprise of both he and his victim, when he finds himself in the house of this banker and surprised by him in the act of robbery. Well, the result is easily seen. Here is a chance for the banker to rid himself of this odious cur, and he takes advantage of it. The story is well acted and beautifully staged. l—nEIV!
