that fresh air was the chief requt.

20 establish sanjtarium N the Adj

Jesse L. Lasky Presents Fannie Ward in For the Defense Today and Tues day.


 A particularly good picture bill has been arranged for this house for today and Tuesday, when the five reel Para mount Fannie Ward in For the Defense will be the feature attraction.
 No star of the legitimate stage who has entered in the greater field of phOtOplay acting has achieved within so short a time the extraordinary sue cess that has come to Fannie Ward, the famous American CCmediennc. She is now the star in the Paramount pie ture For the Defense, produced by the Jesse L. LaslIy Feature Play company and written by Hector and Margaret TuTnbull.
 This will mark Miss Wards fourth Lasky production. Her first was the comedy photopIay The Marriage of Kitty, and then in succession followed The Cheat, the sensation of the year, TenneCsee'S Pardner and now For the Defense.
 Tn this production Miss Ward will appear as q petite French girl who, is suddenly thrown into the midst of 8 great tragedy. By an accident she becomes the sole witness to a murder for which a young man, unknown to her until he later assists her, is aC- cuSed. When this man, who has kept secret from her his true identity, is later accused of crime, none but the little French girl is able to prove his innocence. The scenes of For the De- fense are laid in New York and in the beautiful west. It is a story of great suspense from beginning to end. Other pictures on the bill will be a three reel comedy drama by the pOpu- lar Pathe company and also a single reel comedy.
