WOULD YOU SAVE THE WIFE
YOU NO LONGER LOVE
OR THE OTHER WOMAN?

Confronted with the necessity of
choosing between saving the life of
your faithful wife in whom you have
lost interest and the woman with
whom you are in love! That is the
question that surges in the mind of
Horace Kennedy in the sixth episode
of "The Neglected Wife," Pathe's big
serial to be shown at the Strand The
atre on Monday.
Fate has brought Margaret Warner
the girl whom Kennedy loves, his
wife, Mary, and Norwood who is be-
coming deeply interested in Margaret
together on the Kennedy house-boat.
Edgar Doyle, Kennedy's bitter enemy,
has set fire to the boat while the men
are ashore. Norwood and Kennedy
return to find the boat in flames.
Margaret, first tempted to save her
self leaving Mary to her fate, on sec
ond thought tries to save the wife
who stands between her and the man
she loves. In a thrilling succession of
scenes she rescues Mary and Kennedy
and in turn is rescued by Norwood.
Norwood engages in a fight with
Doyle, while Kennedy bravely swims
to the house-boat. Taking the row.
boat which Doyle had, Norwood
starts after Kennedy. Margaret calls
to him that she is going to throw
Mary's body wei the railing. Mary's
body falling into the water from deck
above is seized by Norwood. Kenne-
dy struck by a beam lies unconscious
near the stairs. Margaret pulls him
over to the railing, and with Nor
woods assistance, he too is saved, but
Margaret faints and as Norwood
jumps up to save her the little boat
begins drifting down the river, with
Mary and Kennedy. Norwood swims
to shore with Margaret on his back
and informs fishermen that Kennedy
and his wife are on the rowboat.
Drifting down the stream, they are
finally rescued. At the hotel, Mary
regaining consciousness discovers that
Kennedy is still out of his senses and
in his delirium repeats, "And Mrs.
Kennedy must never know, dear"
"The other woman" says Mary,
breathlessly, eff he would only speak
her name"

~PLEASANTVILLE TERRACE.

Pleasantville Terrace came to the
front again on July 4th by a flag rails
ing. watermelon party and many 9TH
er pleasant features.
Mr.. Gilmore and familv of Phila-
delphia, have rented DR.. brakes cot
tage at Pleasantville Terrace, and eX-
pect to remain there until fall.
Every house at the Terrace is occu-
pied. People owning lots there ought
to build, as many people are looking
for a cottage in the pines. Some up
to-date real estate man ought to start
to boom the place. He might make
some money.
We understand that the Reading
Railroad is thinking of running a 10
p. m. local train from Atlantic City,
and will stop at the Terrace. 1t would
certainly be a blessing to the people
at this place. Let it be soon.
Mr.. and Mrs. Oliver, of Audubon,
N. j., called on DR.. Julia M. Cole at
her cottage on Sunday.
Five Philadelphia politicians were
down to the Terrace last week, work
