Pauline Frederick, the distinguished
emotional actress who has won such
countrywide fame by her admirable
pesentation of "ZaZa" and Bella
Donna makes her latest motion pic
ture appearance in the Famous Play
er's Film company's adaptation of
Lydia Gilmore" the famous emotion
al drama by Henry Arthur Jones. In
this Paramount picture, which is to be
the attraction at the Spencer Square
tomorrow, Miss Frederick departs
from the adventures roles which
characterized her last two PERFORM
ances, and plays the faithful wife and
loving mother who goes through I'M
! speakable mental agony to shield her
husband after he has proven unfaith-
full to her. 1t is a tremendous role,
powerful, gripping, intense-the ter
rible suspense of woman who holds
within her heart the secret know
/ ledge OF the fact that her husband is
| a murderer and who is placed upon
the witness stand to be cross-exam-
/ lned by the man whose loyal devc.
ton to herself and her little son has
won her love. BY her magnificent in
depreciation of Lydia Gilmore" Miss
Frederick shows her wonderful YER
satlllty, for IN it there is no sugges-
ton OF her former semi-vampire roles.
She is the passiOnately devoted mother
whose whole life is wrapped up in her
little Ned. Her own happiness and
well-being are as nothing compared to
! that of her boy.

1t will continue TO be physically pos

1t would require merely to calculate

the steel and concrete thick enough.
But it may have ceased to be worth
while. A fort would still be yuInera-
Bile from below ground. Its foundation
could not be laid so deep that an en-
envy might not drive tunnel under it,
and then it would be necessary only to
put enough high explosive there to
blow the fort away. So perhaps in the

it is gratifying. that in spite Of the in

date the policy of congress seems to
have been one Of mastery inactivity;
discussion rather than action having
been the arder of the day. An immense
number OF bills have been introduced,
but few have passed. The presidential
campaign may be said to have already
begun, which explains the disposition
to do nothing likely to prove detrimen-
tai to party success. Preparedness and
revenue are the only problems which
bring out any really earnest discussion,
and the most interesting fact in this
direction is the fear of both parties
concerning the consequences of increas-
ed taxation. Taxes, federal, state and
municipal have already risen to bur-
densome heights, and are proving one
of the principal items in the increased
cost of living and public discomfort;
since it is gradually dawning upon the
public mind that taxes inevitably scat
ter themselves until they finally reach
the consumer, who really pays, though
unconscious Of the fact. Railroads and
real estate can be taxed to the utmost,
and the former usually manage to ulti-
motely place place the burden upon the
shipper, while the landlord passes it on

pays either in increased freight rates,
