About "Gloriana."
There was a woman of great
wealth, aristocratic and austere, who
liked to believe that sho was a great
philanthropist and leader in charituble
movements. She devoted every spare
moment of her time to her hobby but
in all she did foreign missions and
churity for people of distant lands !
wns her sole purpose. Right at her i
iloor there was the Buffering poor and
1 1.... -1 1 1 .J 1 . . T
ei'uv; uui sue iieiu uiuul iiuiii giv
ing aid and even denied one of her
own servants an ndvance on her sal
ary when complying meant a matter
of life and death.
There came into her home a little
child, orphaned and adopted by the
man of the house against the wife's
wishes. How this little girl brought i
light into the darkness of this haugh
ty woman's ideas of charity will be
told in an immensely interesting mov
inir nicture to be exhibited at the
Sherry theatre today and tomorrow, 1
in the Bluebird scries under the title
of "Gloriana," with little Zoe Rao
playing the role of the child.
This featuro is one of the rare in
stances where a little child has been
made the star of a photoplny. Owing
to the nature of the subject on excep
tionally talented child was required
to carry the theme tlirough five diffi
cult nets. The fact that littlo Zoe Rae
available made he production
possible, for a child less clever than
this talented youngster could not be
employed. In the supporting com
pany are a dozen mature actors and
actresses, including William Canfield,
John A. Cook, Virginia Foltz, Clar
issa Selwynne, Irene Hunt and Mary

ARCADE
S. HART L SPECTACULAR
PLAY OF ANCIE.f AZTECS
Triangle Star Seen in Striking Role,
Differing Widely from His West
ern Characterizations.
William S. Hart will be seen at the
Arcade theatre, Wednesday and
Thursday, in the long-awaited Tri
angle "Aztec story," "The Captive
God." This play is from the pen of
Monte M. Katterjohn and offers Hart
in a role that is totally unlike any
thing he ever has attempted since his
desertion of the footlights for the film
studio. The part is that of a stalwart
Spaniard, who, shipwrecked in the
early part of the sixteenth century, is
adopted by the people of Tehuan, in
ancient Mexico, and made their lead
er because of his superior wisdom.
Never since he first entered the mo
tion picture fold has Thomas H. Ince
bent his efforts toward the produa
tion of a drama like "The Captive
God." He has preferred to let pass
untouched that period of tho world's
history which contains some of the
most interesting and unusual ro
mances ever written. But when Kat
terjohn wrote "The Captive God" Ince
saw in it the possibilities of a remark'
able motion nicture play.
With his customary care, Ince has
incorporated a great amount of detail
into this subject, and the result is a
magnificent spectacle-romance. Its
scenes are rich with the picturesque-
ness tnat abounded in tne Aztec coun
try, and its action is tense with dra
matic situation.-!.
In the tituhir lole, Hart is declared
to have render.;.! another fascinating
performance Lhii will M.tnblish him
still more firmly in tl'e popular favor.
He appears, it is ti n , s:ns chaps and
sombrero ana six-shooters, but his
magnetism is as powerful as ever.
The cast that appears in support of
IIa:t includes Enid Markey, D. D.
Tahler, Dorothy Dalton, Robert Mo
Rim, Dorcas Matthews, Herbert Far
jean and Robert Kortman.

When Binghamton, New York, de
sired to attract neighboring citizens to
the town, a young lady was selected to
visit other towns and sec what made
them attractive, boosting, at the same
time, Binghamton. The result of her
experiences are published in the Janu
ary American Magazine and the writ
er of the fact, says:
"Miss McCormick declares that her
I work was tho most educative of any
campaign she over tackled. She would
be justified in setting up shop herself
on tne strength or the knowledge she
gained.
" Won't you give us a list of some
of these things you learned about peo
ple? asked a merchant. 'We can use
em in our business.'
" 'Sure,' replied Miss McCormic!:,
with her most dimply smile. And this
is what she wrote down:
"1. Keep human; business depends
. on tho human equation.
"2. Courtesy is tho first law of
business.
j "3. The knowledge of a woman's
name is the open sesame to her con
fidence. I "4 Don't expect interest if you are
not ready show it.
I "5. Artistic display of goods is half
,the sale.
"6. Every dollar invested in a good
clerk will return a hundredfold.
"7. A good location is money in th
baiiK.
"8. Variety is the spice of shopping.
"9. Price, style and quality are all
greatly to bo cherished, hue the great
est of these is style.

GOOD WHOLESOME THINGS TO EAT.

LOT OF GOOD THINGS HERE,
