Caun you imagine with your own eyes a huge cfoss saw pass through the body of the young lady? That's exactly what you will see When you witness the performance of “Sawing 2 Woman in Two" at the Da- yis theatre. The great illusion is be- ing offered in addition to the regular four acts and motlon picture programme This startiing and-extracrdinary act has aroused amazing enthusiasm, from the press and the public in every town and city it has been shown. The balance of the vaudeville bill s composed of Cy and Flo Weiss in an original comedy singing and dashing offering.

The clarity with which each exciting episode explains itself in this simple vie- ualization of a long story is a power- full tribute to the producers of “Our Mu- tual Friend.” . It is a classic in character portrayal, wonderfully interesting as to story, sim- dle human end delightful and, yet comes under the head of “literature visuali: ed.” Truly here iy a perfect “movie” | trom a “classic.” Topics of the Day and a Mermaid com- edy make up the remainder of the bill.

Never Completely wiped out, but dormant for a time, and then bursting forth in waves all over the country. Students of criminology are generally agreed that behind each crime wave is some “Master Mind,” who from his se- cret lair inspires and directs the smaller fry of the vast underworid. It was this idea 'that inspired the writing of “The Wakefleld Case,” in which Herbert Raw- linson is starred, and which will ~ be shown next week at the Strand theatre. Here is a story which not ony has one Master Mind, but three others as well, all scheming and planning to overthrow each other as well as the entlre po- lice forces of two continents. Against these sinister forces of the und~rworld Herbert Rawlinson, in the character of Nell Hartley, modern investigator, matches his nimble wit.
