Those who remember Albert Cheva-
lier, the wonderful English character
actor, when he was in this country
starring and in vaudeville, will be in
terested in seeing him again and on
the screen, in the Metro Pictures
C~orporatlon's new production of
Henry Arthur Jones' stirring and pa
thetic play, 1.-THE Middleman," dur
ing his American tours in the regular
dramatic theatres. The depth of
feeling displayed by the sweet natured
pottery maker, Cyrus Blenkarn, for
his much wronged daughter, his
trials in a life of vicissitudes, his
discoveries and consequent joys when
they bring back to him all that he
loves most in the world, his daugh-
ter, will be recalled by everybody who
has seen this remarkable play. There
is reason to conjecture that when the
screening of this play is seen at the
Lyric Theatre on Wednesday, Aug
ust II, there will be hundreds who
will rejoice in having seen it. Mr..
Chevalier's acting in the role made
notable by Mr.. Willard, is understood
to be not only virile and dramatic but
he has realized, the sweet character
of Blenkarn with the force of manli-
ness and character that are composite
in him.-adv. Il.
