dramatic strength. A careful
dignity of action, and settings
thoroughly in keeping with the
stratum Of high life in which the
scenes are laid. mark it as an ex-

dramatic action. and even thought.

The story is that of the wife of
a rapidlv-rising man, whose de-
termination to reach the top has
led him to neglect his wife, and
she turns for consolation to the
man she rejected when she was
free to accept his love. She is
saved from the abyss by burglar
