The atory was that of a yife| who, a hypochondriac believing she | is to dle, fears for her husband’s future after her death and selects | a plain woman to be his uncoud" wife.

Sten Flyg scored a hit as Uncle John Belden, the catspaw of all the other charac ters; his continual efforts to ex-| plain them out of their difficulties, | resulting in his own discomfiture, | were excellently done, and he show- ed a shift of character not previ- ously suspected. Madge Valentine, playing Emily Ladew, the “second | wife,” did the extremely difficult| feat of convincing everybody during | the fist act that she was most un- | attractive and then had them open-| mouthed with wonder as she played | through the other two acts appear-| ing 8o different that she did not| scem the same girl. Fuclid Hartung, given his firsf major part as Stuart Randolph, the husband, handled it with a dash and rose to brilliance at the close when he became intoxicated and launch- | ed into a wild version of “My Bon- | nie Lies Over the Ocean.” His wife Trene Randolph, the conceiver of the | plot, was played by Marian Fieber; | she performed capably, although the | part called for going through almost | tvo full acts in a half-hysterical | sobbing fit, not an easy task.
