ence OF a sleeDing-powder tsince no
body will take the trouble to put him
to bed), after he has rehounced the
woman he loves, convinced by Sir
Daniel Carteret that he can't live
happily with her because she has a
child whom she sees once month,
and because the father of the child
still lives, though he Is out OF Mrs.
Danes life. Lionel passes into un-
consciousness with the girl he doesn {
care for. but who he will marry,
hanging rapturously over him.
It's a well.wrought play. The dra-
matist does not commit himself too
strongly, but presents the case from
many angles. The audience is allow
ed to do it's own thinking.
Miss Lotus has very difficult role
In Mrs. Dane, one easy to overplay.
She makes her a quiet. modest wo-
man who would be just the kind to
sneak into respectability by the back
door after society had closed the
front. She saves her strength for
her big scene In the third act, when
Sir Daniel Cateret exposes her: and
In this, her work Is SO good that the
audience interrupts with applause
when it ought to be spellbound.
Charles Waldron Is excellent as Sir
Daniel Carteret. lawyer SO good that
he can keep a duchess waiting fve
minutes in his reception hail. His
cross-examination or Mrs. Dane Is
mastery In its courteous frmness.
Charles Carver is little loud and
emotional as Lionel Cartaret. Harry
Huguenot plays the part OF Canon
Bonsey, an inoffending. offensive
clergyman, and plays 1t we'll. Charles
Able gets q lot of fun out OF Bulson-

Is very good indeed as Larry Eastney.
especially when she Is calmly, coldly
forcing Mrs. Bulsom-Porter, well-play-
ed by Ida Glenn, to sign an apology
