THRILLS GALORE
w. S. Hart as ''rhe Two-Gun Man.
in "The Bargain Presents In
usual Western Picture.

Lovers of the West and of Western
stories cannot fail to be interested
and thrilled by the w. H. Production
featuring William S. Hart as the
"Two-Gun Man in "The Bargain
which will be shown at the Arcade
on Wednesday and Thursday. The
scene is laid in the days of the cid
West.
Directed by Thomas 1nce, and star
ring Mr.. Hart, none of the overdone
staginess which is SO prevalent in
many of the present-day screen dram
as depicting the life Of the old pioneer
days. It is a study Of conditions as
they were, exact in every detail, and
critics have pronounced it to be one
of the best pictures Of it's kind yet
released.
Hart, in the character Of "Two-
gum Stokes, the bandit, does some Of
the best work of his career, giving a
characterization of a desperate Of the
mining period, which is little short OF
a work of art.
The picture is one which presents
problem and its solution, in which
every American cannot fail to be in
terested, for the atmosphere of the
play breathes Americanism. Mr..
Harris many admirers will not be dis
appointed in this latest effort of the
famous portrayer Of western roles.
