readers than any other book except

exerted to make the characters realis-

making the settings accurately portray
the scenes described in Bunyan's
great work. The photography is al
most stereoscopic in its distinctness,
and one is made to feel the spiritual
atmosphere and sympathize with the
author who had passed through all
the fluctuations and triumphs of an
exalted religious nature. The Am

marks the close of the ParkhurSt con-

Der of Seville who sang at the Grand

success. Mischa Eiman, the young
and celebrated Russian violinist, marks
the close Of the series.
Brian is something OF a matinee idol
in the cities adjacent to the Atlantic
seaboard, but he isn't proud over this
fact. He is an unusually serious
young man; can dash off music and
lyrics while trying to forget a tooth
ache on sleeping car, and stage q
new and startling stage effect as
easily as he waltZes through Viennese
maZes. Many people have tried to de-
fine Brians vogue. In the rush of
speculation many overlook the fact
that he is an uncommonly good actor.
