The most distinffuished of the Indiana coterie of screen players, internationally famous for her beauty, acknowledged by her sex to be “the Empress' of Fashion,” in a drama every man will want to see and no woman will think of missing.

NUMBER 2
A great deal could be written about this picture, but we believe the title sufficiently indicates the interesting nature of the story. Tis said that many women constantly torture themselves with speculations as to the possibilities of their husband ever having a second wife. Can a man love his second wife as much as he did his first? A vast deal of questioning could be done along this line, but most of the queries would still be unanswered—probably they never will be. But this cinema play may enlighten you on some particular point that you yourself want to know.
