"Tin: m:vi'XATioNs or a wirii" A stae story that is a study deeply puzzling called "The Revelations of a Wife." will be presented at the Oliver theater Wednesday afternoon and nipht. It is a powerful play in which through mysterious warnings J-iwyrr Stcrlimr's wife becomes frantic with fear at a .eemini-r nemesis which is within her homo nnd continually threatens to ventilate her past she does not tell her husband but ho readily sees the alarming change in his wife but cannot learn from her the cause the inoro he tries to ascertain what is wronjr the more complicated and mysterious becomes the tanqle of affairs. Ho finally decides to brine: n youn woman into his house as companion for his wife, hoping the frrct of her worry may be found cut. Tho young woman is Kitty Constance, a bright person who does things, but not until she herself has "been subjected to numerous nerveracking adventures and many myslerions warnings in consequence of her persistent endeavors to seek out the cause of the queer happenings in tho Sterling home. The matinee will be for women only.

Kupene O'Brien, however much a husband, is never too much so to be a good lovir, as he again demonstrates at the La.Salle today where he id starred in the new photoplay entitled, "His Wife's Money." When his luxury loving wife runs away from his rude log cabin in the Sierras, his- cave-man methods of winning her back will win the admiration of his countless admirers. Zeena Keefo plays the rolo of the wife. For tho?. who think they could tell the absolute truth for one solid week, tomorrow's comedy drama at the Ivistalle is recommended. Kntitled "Nothing But the Truth" and from the stage play of that title It tells of a young man who sets out to renounce falsehood forever, and of the amusing manner in which he t'.nally wins out. Taylor Holmes has the leading role in this immensely funny story What's the world taking about today? league of Nations? Next

Remember Every Phone in Town Connects With This Theater

From the Novel of the Same Name by EMERSON HOUGH The most sublime drama of love and faith with the great west as a back ground that was ever filmed. A western picture so different from the usual run of western pictures that you will be agreeably surprised a seven reel special production that fairly bristles with big scenes and thrilling sensations and a more powerful love story than you have ever before seen in a western picture. "The Sagebrusher" is a BIG PRODUCTION and among its big scenes are a fight for life on top of a house which is being carried wrecklessly along on the crest of a huge flood; a raging forest fire such as has never before been photographed, and a fist fight that is the equal of any such fight you have ever seen. AN ALL STAR CAST FEATURE THIS BIG 3 DAY ATTRACTION ROY STEWART a favorite among South Bend picture fans, and clever MARGUERITE DE LA MOTTE are the leads. Roy Stewart is perhaps the best known to our patrons and he is a western character actor of real ability. SPECIAL PRICES FOR THIS PICTURE
