The mere fact that the present story is by the author of "Soldiers of Fortune," "The Dictator" and many more that are too well known to re quire mention here, is a substantial guarantee of quality. Still, even that is negligible when it is borne in mind that the picture is released by Tri angle, a trade-mark . that stamps superiority not merely upon one pic ture, but upon a largo number.

Kipling wrote his celebrated rciti ence to A fool there was, and he made his prayer To a (rag, a tone and a hnnk of hair dramatists of both screen and the speaking stage have been impelled to write vehicles for the vampire type; but they have had as little excuse for being, as a rule, as the "heavy" of the old melodramas, who is a villain on general principles. On the con trary, Louise Glaum, as the charac ter of Marie Chaumontcl, in "Some- where in France," is a woman who exerts her sensuous charms for the specific purpose of stealing military secrets for the Germans from ' the French. She cares no more for the life of a man than she docs for that of a fly; but her sacrifices are always made for something infinitely more tangible than the delight of a vicious woman in playing upon masculine weaknesses. The result is interest ing and exciting.
