TODAY POSITIVELY THE LAST TIME Never hats a photo-drama received such high praise from a large and appreciative audience as did Edward Everett Hale's immortal American classic,

The Man Without a Country

The general verdict from every man, woman and child

It was the grandest story-picture I ever saw." Every patri

otic American should see it. While it's a wonderful 7-reel war drama, there is not a shot fired; no battle or fighting scenes, and there has never been a war drama that has been received so enthusiastically and such heary applause as given this most wonderful picture, "THE MAN WITHOUT A COUNTRY." It will arouse ones patriotism as it has never been aroused before, and we are very proud to be able to

present this grand and timely patriotic drama again today. An added attraction, another one of those screaming Wm. Fox Sunshine two-reel comedies, "SHADOWS OF HER PEST.M There have been no comedies made that can equal Wm.

Fox Sunshine comedies. Never miss one of them. Special attention is called to Prof. Shamp's

Miss I'oynte- and Miss Leone have conTerro,! on the play and part and the result is something that will never he forgotten hy those who te it. The last act. for which the play was written, is one of the greatest pieces of dramatic art that has ever heen given to an American puhlic.

It's a patriotic story founded on Kdward Lverett Hales wonderful hook of the same name, only it is hrought up-to-date and concerns the present v. ar.

Kflie Shannon, a well known stage favorite and Xiles Welch are co-star-rcd in this production. The piece illustrates the way in which the war comes home to families. It shows the torturing sacrifices mothers must make to send their sons away, hut it shows also that duty to the nation and devotion to the riuht lie deep in the heart of every right-minded American hoy. By every means in her power Helen Morrison in "Her Ioy" tries to Iteep her hoy from entering the service, only to find that her most extreme measure, her "last card." .is the ery one that convinces him that enlistment is a necessity and a glorious privilege.
