Mary MacLaren, “the American Beauty of the sereen,” returns to the Strand theatre today and Saturday in her latest Universal Special, “The Amazing Wife Those who saw this popular star in “Bread” and “Creaking Stairs” are promised another photo- play of equal interest. “The Amazing Wife,” as might be imagined, {s Miss MacLaren, who plays the part . of Cicely Osborn Cicely, the widow of a ruffian m dered in_ a cajaret brawl, is on the verge of starvation when she reads that another man of the same name as her husband, John Ashtom, has been killed in action in France. This Ashton was a lieutenant, the son of wealthy parents, Driven by want, Cicely passes herself as his wid- ow and is accepted by his parents. The complications arise when Lieu- tenant Ashton returns, the news of his_death having been an error. These lead to a big climax, in Which Lieuten |ant Ashton, despite his wounds, fig! his cousin in defense of his “wife's” honor. Manager Davidson announces a change of go][cv beginning Monday, when thrée big acts of high class vau- deville, 2 feature news weekly and a comedy will.be given at each perform- ance, with change of programme Mon- 1 day and Thursda: BREED THEATRE. Pauline Frederick's lJatest pleture, “Bonds of Love,” by Louis Sherwin, the eminent dramatic eritic is a pow- erful emotional photodrama worthy of the sterling ability of the versatile star. In none of Miss Frederick's re- cent pictures, has she been called up- on to play the awakening imstinct of mother love; but in her new screen v hicle, which comes to the Breed thea- tre teday and Saturday she assumes the role of a second wife who has sineerely grown to love the child of her husband's first wife and is wi ing to satrifice herself for the sal the child’s welfare. This undsual bination of self-sacrifice and mother love for another's child de- velops into a masterly climax in which Miss Frederick has many opportun!- ties to revea] some of the subtlest touches which have ever been seen in photodrama. Crelghton Hale will also be seen in “The Black Circle.” This is a thrilling story of a young man who takes charge of a small cuunt newspaper, and his fight :{ a gang of ruffians who are o rizing the district. The Pathe news will complete the bill. DAVIS THEATRE. A new twist to the old story of the country girl who comes to New- York in search of fame is glven by “The Market of Souls” the new Para- mount-Artcraft picture starring Dor- othy Dalton, which wil] be shown at the Davis theatre Friday and Satur- day. Miss Dalton plays the role of & girl from upstate New York, who has been trained as a nurse and comes to the big city to follow her profes- sion. There she meets two brothers —one a “rounder,” the other a_real man. Forthwith her exciting adven- tures contmence, How she finds hap- ! piness with the man she loves, after the evil brother has expiated his wrong by meeting a /soldier's death on the battlefleld, forms the plot of ‘what is sald to be the greatest photo- play in which Miss Dalton has yet been seen. Peggy Hyland's new pho- toplay “The Merry-Go-Round," is the other feature, It is a love romance abounding in rapid action, developed in most picturesque setting, Inter- natfonal News and a funny Mutt .& Jeff comedy completes the show.
