Friday the 18th. :"

The road to right is always against
the crowd. This is proved iE bea uti-
full and thrilling story-the greatest
story ever written by Thomas w.
Lawson, one of the leading authors
of the world, and one of Boston's
most prominent financiers. The ac-
ton of the story is unexceled by any
Brady-made picture heretofore releas-
ed. and while it is laid in old New
York town, it has an appeal to every
American heart The wild scenes at
the Stock Exchange. the gripping
moments when the financiers buck up
against brave little woman's stra-
tegy, bring emotions so intense that
you involuntarily rise out of your
seat, and with true American spirit
you want to shout ravoW Robert
Warwick stars in this great drama
which seems to have been written to
his order. The millions of people
who read this thrilling Lawson story
will flock to see it on the screen as
produced under the masterful super
vision of William A. Brady. 1t is a
story o. the times. and on it we are
willing to bank our future reputation.
All lovers of par-eXcellent pictures
should see Robert Warwick in Friday
the 18th.
