If she had acted with her usual cat-like quickness she would have accomplished her purpose, for I was too paralyzed with fear to move. But she was evidently possessed of an insane inclination to taunt me with her purpose. She held the bottle aloft before uncorking it and laughed into my colorless face. “I don’t wonder you're dear,” she mocked. will have color enough in a few moments. This is the most effective rouge known.” She was so absorbed in her gloating that she didn’t hear what I did, the faintest grating as of a key turning in the lock of my door, the door from which she had removed the key. The sound roused me, made me tense, ready to act, gae my paralyzed muscles strength to move. Without taking my eyes from the bottle which she held, I could see that behind her the door was slowly, noise- lessly opening, ‘and in the opening stood Katherine Sonnot, her eyes black with excitement, her face white, but her whole figure poised, ready .for action. In one hand she held some- thing which to' my frightened eyes looked like a pistol. “Drop that!” she commanded, and her yoice was such as I never; had heard from Katherine's daintily curved lips before. It was the voice of a woman used to dealing with any kind of emergency, and even through the horror of the moment I remembered hearing Katherine say ance that she had spent six months in the ‘dope flend ward of a hospital. “Oh, Katherine!” Mrs. Allis whirled, and even as she did so I saw her fingers uncork the bottle she held in her hand. Then tear for Katherine gave me strength to spring, to seize the hand with the bottle and to force it downward even as she drew her hand back to hurl it at Katherine. The next moment Mrs. Alli. wrenched her hand free, put both hands to her eves with a gasping cry and staggered to the bed, falling upon t and clawing it with her hands. Be- fore she could shriek again Katherine had stuffed a portion of a sheet into her mouth, and coolly sat down be- side her, holding her down with fingers of steel. In another moment a shud- der ran through the prostrate woman’s figure and she relaxed, her fingers un- clasping and resting quietly upon the caverlet while her face grew color- Jess. Katherine bent over her, listened to her breathing, tested her pulse, and then straightened her contorted figure | in the bed. A pungent odor filled the alr, making me cough. “Oh, Katherine!” I walled. dead You didn’t kill her?” For into my mind had leaped the thought that the weapon Katherine had held in her hands must be a silencer” pistol. “Kill her?

Shall I call Mr. Graham?"" “Oh, no, no,”I protested, and won- dered at myself at the dread which rose in my heart at the thought of raving Dicky a witness of the terrible experience through which we were passing. ‘“Don’t do anything he will hear. Do you suppose he heard her cry out?” “It Won't Hurt You.” “Judging from the way he was snor- ing when I was getting into your room, I should imagine it would take more than one shreak to rouse him,” atherine returned dryly. “His door was closed, but his slumber was audible through it.”” “What made her shriek and faint, Katherine?” I persisted. “Did she spill that stuff she had on herself, or did you shoat hep?"” “I suppose vou might call it shoot- ing, ves,” Katherine returned, holding out to me the object I had thought was a pistol. “Take it—it won’t hurt you.” I looked wonderingly at the thing pale, my “But your face “Is she OF A WIFE By ADELE GARRISON she put in my hand, shaped like a pistol, with a rubber bulb for a handle and then with puzzled face back to Katherine. “An ammonia gun,” she explained. “I always carry one, a habit of my nursing days when I was called out at night.

There was a contempt in it, also; which I couldn’t understand i until her next words enlightened me. “This and the dope she had already taken.

But when a picture runs, not one night, but three solid months, in a Broadway theater and turns away hundreds of people the last and every day of its engagement, prices that are as high as two dol- Jars a scat, thén there cn be no ques- tion but what it is one of those rari- an absolute masterpicce. And s is the record made by the “Honor System,” that big ten-act Fox super- de-luxe work of art, that will he shown at the local Fox theater for five days, starting tomorrow. It prob- ably created more favorable comment from capable and exacting critics than any other picture ever shown on the great white way. And it i of those things that cannot be pr: too much, for it lives up to cvery promise made for it. Gigantic in pro- portions, thrilling in action, simple thoroughly human in themec, thoroughly exact and truthful in de- tail, it is packed from beginning to end with action. Many of the scenes in the picture were taken in one of the lars ons in the Southwest by special per mission and the results are strikingly realistic. In particular may be cited the scénec in the huge prison dining hall, where threc thousand life and long-term ranged signal, r ing the unprepared gus ties, escape and take country. Willlam Tox seems endowed with some sixth sense which tells him how to select the proper people for his big productions. And when he de- cides, money Is no object. In “The Honor System” he came to the con- that for the principal types he required the services of George Walsh, Mirlam Cooper and Gladys Brockwell, and although the direct- ors of these stars objected strenuous- ly, he overruled them all. He is the only film-producer who ever put so many big stars into a single picture. But the results have more than war- ranted it. “YOUTH” BIDS LAST FAREWELL TONIGHT rds and trus- to the open A packed house greeted June El- vidge and Carlyle Blackwell I night when this capable pair of stars their appearance in their latest screen hit, “Youth,” one of the best npd most entertaining novelties that the World studios have produced in a long time.
