The story Is OF 4 woman'S sacrifice
for her daughter and, in turn, the
daughters greater sacrifice, to save
her mothers name after the latter's
death. The girls experiences begin in
a boarding school aid end with her &C.
knowledging her love for the man who
has done his best to help her out OF
numerous hectic situations.
Jean Sothern does some very good
acting in THE Cloud" and she gives a
fine portrait OF wInsome and charm
ing young girl. During the first two
reels she displays her ability TO cry in
at least a dozen different manners.
Richard Tucker plays a conventional
role so that it is lifted out of the rut,
and Arthur Housman is a convincing,
hayward youth with an avaricious dis.
position. These players and the re.
mainder Of the cast do great deal in
holding the attention of the spectator
to the screen on account OF the manner
in which they handle their material.

The First Fly Fishers.

Doubtless the reason why artificial
flies were originally invented was be.
cause it was impossible to use the
smaller and more delicate natural flies
as bats on the hook. The first fly fish
er cast his eyes about him in search OF
something that would answer as imi-
tating the flies upon which the trout
were feeding. Feathers were naturally
the llrst materials thought of, and the
old red cocks hackle was the first of
all the artificial insects, the old, old
Adam Of them all. The breed has been
increasing several hundred years and
numbers 1000 or more Mt the present
day. OF salmon flies alone there are
several hundred patterns. These be.
long to the lure order mostly, as do
many OF the large flies used for bass
and trout, The little old red hackle
remains n good fly to this day and is

as anything. Red wool is favored by
