This possesses thi samo meritorious points that have placed tho Fitzmaurlee production:; of "On With tho llancR." "The Righto to Love" and "Idols of Clav" among the best pictures recenty produced. The theme of the picture is based on the thought that in the mad scramble for wealth, people are blind to the finer things of life, and that tlfo world of possession does not brine enduring haiiDiness or contentment. The principal characters are finally regenerated when, through the loss of their riches, they realize that real living is not measured by dollars and cents.

Dorothy Dalton is back again in the rolo of a daughter of the Canadian Northwest in the days of tho gold rush a similar character to that in which she mado such a suc cess in "Tho Flame of the Yukon," several years ago. It was In such a role as she has In "The Idol of the Xorth" that Miss Dalton gained her reputation as a screen star. Miss Dalton plays the daughter of a French-Canadian minor, who fled to the wilderness to escape arrest for killing a man. She is left without father and mother in a mining town built up over night and obtains a po sition in the camp"8 chief saloon and dance hall. She soon becomes one of the attrac tions of the place and plays unmerci fully with the miners, "trimming" them for all they are worth, but still remaining the most desired of the girls. She meets a young engineer who has forsaken the east to forget an unhappy romance. In order to get even with the way she has treated the miners, they ;orco nor to marry tho easterner. And so sho decides to make the best of a bad bargain and regenerate him. Many dramatic in cidents follow heforo sho finds hap niuess with him.
