If you have read the book you wili enjoy the pic- none of its strength and charm in translation to I you have missed the . book .then you have in store an em- tertainment exceptional. As you doubtless recall, from read- ing the famous book by Sir Gilbert is a story of modern the narrative of the great romance of Charley, or “Beau- ty” Stecle, the brilliant lawyer, irre- lute and unprincipled, &ncannily skilful jn his profession—at once pride and despair of Montreal. How his masterful personality, his craving for drink, his somehow at- tractive superciliousness, brought him into the lives of two women, dif- ferent entirely save that both were beautiful, constitutes one of the real- ly big love stories 'of modern times. It won for the author his knighthood as a matter of fact; and Mr. Lytell's enactment of the principal role, the artistic merit of the production, put the picture on a plane equal to t occupieg by the novel.

No advance romantic story, Taptain Dieppe, has reached the movies. First published as a novel the adventures of the dashing young secret agent proved a wor- thy companion of the author’s earlier book, The Prisoner of Zenda, which was the starring point of a flood of speudo-historical literature. The popularity of Captain Dieppe led Mf. Hope to dramatize it and the stage play was produced both here and abroad. Recently the story was made Into a scenario and under the title of An Adventure in Hearts it will be shown at the Davis theatre today with Robert Warwick in the starring role. The picture tells an entertaining yarn of adventure, love and plenty of excitement in a noble- men's castle in northern Italy. The hero ig a sort of D'Artagnan, es- caping from the agents of a govern- ment that has refused to pay him for a hazardous task which he accom- plished and which it is anxious to keep secret. Mr. Warwick is said to' be ideally cast. He is supported by Juan de la Cruz, Whnifred Green- wood, Helene Chadwick and others The other big feature on this pro- gramme is Dorothy Dalton in The Flame of the Yukon, a tremendous 6- part western picture and without a doubt the greatest picture this pop- ular star has ever appeared in.
