Ho gavo tho rolo of tho woman

mado for a thrilling evening to the
packed house which sat absorbed
through tho exciting abduction mid
woman's taming scones, or which
shook with laughter at the delicious
humor which saturates tho plcturo.
This Is nn unusunl plcturo, moro
effoctlvo oven in tho screon version
than in tho original play form by
Charles Ooddnrd and Paul Dlckoy,
whon It scored such a triumph on
tho Now York stago. Tho reason Is
obvious the brilliant work of Ilort
Lytell glvo tho adaptation for the
silver screon mi uuforgetablo mas
torful touch.
JIo Is admirable as Jack Cralgen.
tho onglnoor who Iiuh roturnod to
nffoto Now York from n big construc

his supposedly Invulnorablo Woman

meeting a lovely society girl, Helen
Eteol. He proposes without loss of
tlmo, but discovers that he has boon
made a fool of. Helen hus made
Jjlm got down on his knees to prove
that she has Btage ability mid do
servos tho place of leading woman
at tho "llttlo theatre" run as n
hobby by a millionaire.
Cralgon loses no tlmo in snatching
her off, struggling, to his hunting
lodge In tho fastnesses of the Adtr
ondacks. Thero ho proceeds to give
'Helon a lesson In primitive emo

his brusquo wooing, In winning hor
lovo. Dut only uftor sho lias knock

has come up to settle matters with
Cralgen and finds htmsolf unable to

Tho plcturo leaves nothing to bo
