The attraction for Thursday, Friday and Saturday at tho Page theatre Is considered something of an event in photodramatic history. It is called "Virtuous Wives" and many patrons will remember It as Owen Johnson's famous serial story of society lite which ran in the Cosmopolitan Magazine only a short while ago. The film is notable, for this story It possesses alone, but when one stops to consider that it' marks Anita Stewart's return to the screen after an absence of nearly a year, the full Importance of tho pic ture may readily be graspod. In "Virtuous Wives" alio has the role of a young wife who occupies herself during an enforced period of separation from her husband by flirt ing with the various men who sur round her as so many satellites.

And It comes chiefly because tho husband in the case happens to be a sane, hard-headed' man. NO FEAR OF BIG SHE IN SEATTLE REDDIKG. Calif.. April 17.
