The theme of this latest achieve- ment, which, it is sald, sets a standatq® of colos: production which even Mr. Griffith may never be able to excel, Love's struggle throughout the ages. The scenes are laid in four ages of the world’'s development—Ancient Babylon, the Nazarene's Judea, Medi- I eval Paris, and a modern American city. Among the film favorites having tho principal roles are: Mae Marsh, Mir- jam Cooper, Constance Talmadge, Seena Owen, Lilllan Gish, Robert Alfred Paget, Walter Long, Bessie Love, Margery Wilson and El- mer Clifton.
