"Stanley Wayburn," Gloria an
swered promptly. "But you needn't
have worried about him. He didn't
want to marry anyone who didn't
have a million dollars!"
Stanley Wayburn was still a bit
ter memory in her heart.
He was the one man who had
never lost his head over her. He
had told her frankly 4lat he would
never marry for anything but -money.
Rut he was perfectly willing to make

And then, at the end of the season,

She remembered how she had cried

Mrs. Gordon was enchanted with
Gloria's new fur coat.
"Dick's a fine husband," she said.
"So don't kill the goose thnt lays the
golden egg. Don't run him into debt!
. . . By the way, that good-for-noth
ing Wayburn is back in town. I see
by the papers that he's heading c
new stock company."
"Is that so?" Gloria asked inno
cently. Hut her heart leaped. Stan
Wayburn here, playing! And this
was matinee day!
Gloria glanced ftt her wrist watch.
Two o'clock. ... If ho hurried she
could get to the theater in 15 mln

"Well, I must be going. I ju't

her mother goudby. On the way to I
the theater she bought a hunch of
violets and pinned them to her coat.
The house was sold out except fjr
two chairs in an upper box. Gloria
bought one of the in. Just ft she
entered the box the curtnin wont up.
The play was a western one.
When SVayburn walked out onto
the stage with his spurs clnnkin-.;,
Gloria leaned forward. She wnnted
to cnll out to him, "Hello there, Stnn!
It's Gloria!"
For ahe felt lure he would never

Just then Wayburn looked 'up. fP

"Monsieur BeauoaJr" Coming to tho
Rex Next Week
If the word "super-production" had
not been so sadly abused and mis
used, we would be sorely tempted to
upply it to Rudolph Valentino's Par
amount picture. Monsieur Beau
caire." which is due next Wednesday
and Thursday at the Rex theater. For
if ever a picture deserved superla
tives It surely la this screenplay,
which Forrest Halsey adapted from
Booth Tarkington'a story.
Imagine the love interest of "The
Sheik." the romantic coloring of
"Blood and Sand and the spectacle
of "The Four .Horsemen" combined
in one photoplay and you begin to
understand why 'Monsieur Beau
cairo" is a photodrama of amnzing
beauty and power. To the students
of history it will be an inspiration;
to the schoolboy it will he an edu
cation, and to the blase film fan it will
be a revelation. All the pomp and
magnificence of the court, of Louis
XV. notorious for ita love affairs, its
intrigue, honor and vire! The schem
ing Mme, Pompadour, the dissolute
King, the crafty Richelieu they live
once more!
As for the supporting cast, it may
well be set up ns n standard of excel
lence, including nB It does. Bebe Dan
