The part of Lady Isabel is portrayed by Miss Blanche Forsythe a clever emotional actress who gives the part a human touch that soon makes her personality felt to the audiences. MT. Fred Paul the celebrated English leading man. plays the part of Richafd Carlyle, and the supporting cast is all excellent, Today is the last chance to see this beautiful photo production of this story that appeals to old and young alike and brings back a fragrant mem costumes are of the early Victorian period and no detail has been omit ted.

Visiting the moon? Or sleeping on the ice amid an Arct1s noon? Bring they with them jewels From the sunset lands?
