THE GILDED SPIDER
SHERRY'S
. Originality in Photoplay Construction
When "The Gilded Spider" comes to
ine snerry tneatre today and tomor
row in Bluebird photoplays, there will
be disclosed a series of ingeniously
contrived sensations that will make
this feature distinctive among fiveact
pictures in tho genuinely feature
class.
The story is carried from Italy,
where the deliberate committal of a
wrong against a poor Italian woman,
stirs the vengeance of tho bereaved
husband, across the Atlantic to New
York, where tho half-crazed Sicilian
spends long years in the search for
the man who wrecked his home and
blackened ihs heart with the blood
of vengeance.
Perhaps there is nothing uncommon
in a story of hatred and revenge, but
me manner in wnicn the Bluebird
photoplayers handle the subject will
make the feature strikingly unique
among its kind. In the first place
there is beautiful Louise Lovely to im
personate the Italian mother, and
later on thie Italian girl around whom
centers all the action. ,
Sensations follow , sensations in
working out the plot. The scene on
board a vacht. when thA rrirT inmna
overboard and drowns in defense of
her honor; the kidnapping of an
American woman by a band of des
perate criminals: a beautiful roof trar-
den scene, which ends in a desperate
leap to death; a wild automobile
chase, and a brilliant festival scene in
Hazel Dawn, the beautiful fair
haired star of the Famous Players
Film company, makes a. sensational
success in that leading producing
company's latest Paramount picture,
"The Feud Girl." Miss Dawn, with a
cast of prominent players which in
cludes -Irving Cummings, Arthur Mor
rison, Hardee Kirkland, Gertrude
Norman and George Majeroni, enact
ed the drama in perhaps the most pic
turesque districts of Georgia,under
the careful supervision of Director
Fred Thomson. The Arcade will ex
hibit "The Feud Girl" today and to
morrow.
As the title implies a feud exists
between two lands, the Haddons and
the 'Bassetts, the inhabitants of the
wild and rugged southern mountain
region, lhe chief bone of contention
is the big mountain which lies be
tween them Iron Mountain. "The
railroad engineers, discovering the in
valuable territories lying in the wake
of these warring factions proceed to
umie encm.
Nell Haddon. a" tvnical care-free
daughter of the hills, hates the Bas-
sett clan , with the same vehemence
as does the rest of her clan. Through
the persuasiveness of the railroad of
ficittls Haddon is induced to marry
Nell to one of the Bassett elan. Nell
hears of the plan and announces that
sne would rather marry any member
of her clanN than one of that hated
tribe. Dave is admitted into the con
test after much opposition from Luke,
an ardent admirer of Nell. When he
draws the losine straw Nell ouicklv
changes it behind her back. A fight
starts immediately between Luke and
Dave, the winner taking the girl.
Dave throws his enrnfrprl rivnl with
Dave cleverly brings about the
meeting of the clans. They stand
face to face on a leveled field. Neil
is staggered when she sees Dave in
the r anks of the Bassetts and for the
first time learns that he is one of
them.
Unly the quickest action on the part
of the women prevents a clash be
tween the two clans when the decen
tion is discovered. As the weeks roll
on Nell's consciousness that she is
soon to fulfill her greatest mission in
life turns her thoughts towards her
raisuaiul. whom she ovos ripen h his

How to Bo Well Dresaed and Not Look
Like a Cloudy Winter Day.
In the American Magazine Is an ac
count of one of the most successful
insurance solicitors In the country,
who attributes a large part of bis suc
cess to the fact that be always looks
well dressed and prosperous.
"If you have only one suit of clothes,
keep that One suit clean and pressed all
the time," he says. "Press your trou
sers yourself every day If necessary. I
have pressed my trousers lots of times.
Keep your shoes shlned"
"If you can afford several suits,
change off from one suit to another
frequently and keep all of them spot
less and well pressed.. I never wear a
suit longer than the second day at a
time. To change every day is better.
It gives the clothes a chance to 'rest
I always hang my clothes on bangers
the minute I take them off. It gives
them a chance to Vome back' Into
shape and the nap to come up again.
"It is a great economy to have lots of
good clothes. A suit will last twice
and three times as long and always
look well If you keep changing off from
one to another. . Besides, people get
tired of seeing a man in the same suit
day after day for a whole season.
"When I started in tho Insurance
business years ago I realized that to
make a good appearance was to look
prosperous, and I paid much attention
to my dress. I avoided solid colors
and always selected clothes with some
life in them. A dasb of color about
your person, wbetber it be in the
plnid of the suit, the shirt, tie, hat or
handkerchief protruding from the coat
pocket, will take away the monotony
of one's appearance and is sure to
please. But. in adding this 'life' and
'pep' to one's appearance, avoid, above
all things, the colors that clash. Get
clothes with 'snap' and 'life;' avoid
those which make the wearer look like
a cloudy winter day."

Bernhardt'! Clever Trick Turned Cold-
nese to Enthusiasm.
Onco when Sarah Bernhardt was act
ing in Italy the audience was rath.
er unfriendly, owing to the fact that
the prices of the seats had been con
siderably increased.
After the first act Mine. Bernhardt
called her maid and gave her some di
rections in an undertone. The maid
left the theater, but speedily returned,
and just before her mistress went on
the stage again she handed ber some
thing as she stood in the wings. The
scene progressed. "The Divine Sarah"
seemed hoarse. She tried to clear her
throat, passed her handkerchief across
her month, and suddenly a stream of
blood poured from her lips, and she
fell into the arms of the actor with
whom she was playing.
The curtain was promptly rung
down, and the audience waited breath
lessly to hear the worst All their
previous vexation was turned to sym
pathy, and when it was announced
that the great actress would shortly
resume her part rather than disap
point them the cheering was deafen
ing. When ujiidnme came on again
tho people applauded her as loudly as
formerly they had shown their disap
proval, and the rest of the play was
ono long triumph. -
But that audience never know the
truth, for when madame bad sent her
maid out of the theater It was to get'
her a small bladder of red ink, which
she kept in her handkerchief nnd
which she bit through with her teeth
so as to produce the alarming effect
that had transformed ber audience.
