The lawyer, who never hesitated where a big fee was promised, outlined a nice little trap which was to satisfy his client’s burning wish for revenge and pluck the young clubman for a fortune in “Alimony.” She seeks the strangest revenge imaginable, a revenge unique in its fiendishness. In the cast are Josephine Whittell, as Mrs. Bernice Flint, the divorcee, Lois Wilson, as Marjorie Lansing, the heroine, George Fisher, as the debon- air young millionaire, Joseph Dow- ling, Ada.

Several thousand feet over the Capitol, he looped, dove and turned his machine up side down, but never disturbing the imperturbality of Empey, who as they were descending, shouted to the pilot to know when he was going to begin with his stunts. “Empey is too tough a proposition for me,” admitted the flier, in telling of his experience, as any person will learn who tries to pull anything on him. Sergeant Empey will be seen in actual airship scenes in Vitagraph's picturization of his famous book, “Over the Top,” based on his experi- ences in first line trenches. In one scene he captures a German flier be- hind his own lines and forces him to fily with Empey and an American girl to safety behind British linea. “Over the Top” is being shown at 11 thi ek Cuticura Heals Burning Hching Skin Trouble On Face.
