THE White Raven" a stirring tale
OF the Yukon, with Ethel Barrymore
In the leAding role, is being featured
at the Strand Theater in motion pict-
ures the beginning OF this week. The
first presentation OF the play was
given Sunday, and IL will be continued
tonight. Miss Barrymore reaches the
apex OF her dramatic power in the
beautiful story picturing the human
side of the frozen land OF gold.
firing of her surroundings in a w.
kon concert hall, the heroine offers
herself for sale to whoever wins her
at cards, providing the victor will
take her back to more civilized climes.
The yalor of the conqueror prompts
him to free her and send her back to
New York, providing her with the
means to cultivate her voice. She
goes, but with the voluntary promise
to return on demand. While in the
East she accompitshes the dual pur
pose of winning for herself fame and
overthrowing an enemy who had ruin
ed her father.
In the midst OF her success the call
for her return comes, and she goes
back to her frozen Northland, sacrific-
ing her renown as a singer, but salts
flying her hearts longing in the love
OF her miner hero.
The program for the rest OF the
week at the Strand includes Clara
williams, Wednesday and Thursday,
in Three OF Many" and Mabel Tall
aferro. Friday and Saturday, in John

Spectacular Film Of Reconstruc-
ton Of South Draws Well on
Second Appearance Here.
EXPERIENCE" HOLDS OVER
Large Audience at BeIasco on
Opening of Second Week
of Play.

There were those At the National
Theater last night who admitted II
was the fourth time they had seen
''The Birth OF a Nation" and many
others who saw II for the first time.
All were thrilled by the stirrinG
scenes and amazed by the stipend
business of the production and its q.
deity to detail.
Notwithstanding its long and sue
cessful run at the National Theater
last winter, this most wonderful of
all film productions dealing with the
civil war and the days that followed
II has lost none OF its interest nor its
ability to turn back the hands or
time more than half q century. For
the two hours and a half the produc-
ton runs the audience actually lives
amid the historic scenes, environs,
and activities preceding, during, and
following the fnterneeine strife of 81
to '65.
While the entire production mani
testify made the strongest OF appeals
to last nights good sized audience, It
was evident that the second part
aroused and held the greatest inter
est.
The Ford Theater scene in which
Pres dent Lincoln Is assassinated,
Sherman's march to the sea, the fury
of many battles, the activities of the
Ku Klux Khan and the suffering OF
q conquered but proud people during
reconstruction days were also. por-
trayed with a realism that almost
challenged belief. ss
The acting Of Henry walthall, LII
liam Gish, Mae Marsh, Josephine Gro
well, and the other principals and
thousands OF subordinates approached
perfection as nearly as the audience
could expect. 'The music accompany
ing the production is a genuine fea-
ture OF this marvellous educational
and informative. entertainment.

bag and sticks his little head out at
the top, while the leather handles
are hung on mistress arm in a
most convenient way.
OF course, every fastidious dog, or
every house dog with q fastidious
mistress, boasts a pair, or rather two
pairs, in order to go the rounds OF
all his little feet, OF rubber boots.
These he grows accustomed to hav-
ing placed on his paws before going
out for his constitutional and on re-
turning home he waits patiently to
have them removed before he will
step foot on rug or polished floor.
And such an array OF combs and
brushes as the shops show for our
canine friends. II we are their friends
as truly as they are ours we surely
secure one or two of these toilet ac-
cessories for them. There are combs
OF steel or bone in varying sizes and
as cheap as 10 or 20 cents. There are
brushes of fine, dull-end wire or OF
thick bristle that make any dog feel as
il he had had a Turkish bath. a clean
shave and a new suit all in one. One of
of the most convenient OF these brushes
Is arranged on the palm side Of sort
OF mitten that can easily be drawn over
the hand for the greater convenience Of
assisting the dog friend with his MORN
ing toilet
For the very little, very petted dog
there are little cowbells to hang on
their collars at their. necks. Don't tell
the dog friend IL you get him one Of
these bells that they were originally in
tended for the pet tabby. AS a matter
of fact a good many very nice dog
friends wear them and rather take
pride in their cheerful dingle.
