EVELYN NESBlT GIVES
BLOOD FOR STRANGER
Plot Of Film Drama, 'Her Mis-
take, , Includes Stars monu-
mental Sacrifice.

1t is difficult to conceive OF more
heroic act on the part of glrl than the
willing submission to an operation OF
blood TRANSMISSION in which to save the
life of & man she bares h. r arm to the
surgeons knife and at the risk OF she
knows not what consequences to her
self. makes gift Of her life fluid to a
stranger whose only claim on her IS
that he is suffering. Yet that is wha.
the heroine of 'Her Mistake" did, and
that is only one of the wholly unusual
incidents of this highly dramatic photo
drama which, with Evelyn Nesblt as Its
star. will be shown at the Virginian
Theatre. She has the role of simple
backwoods maiden who is fairly well
satisfied with her uneventful life until
there comes to her villsge, on cunning
! trip, young man from nelghborlng
city. This impetuous youth promptly
involves himself in q quarrel with the
village bully, and as result is so dan
gerously wounded that the surgeons are
convinced that only by the TRANSMISSION
of another's blood can his life be saved.
She marries the man whom she has
succored and is taken to the city to
live. Her life proceeds TRANQUILITY. She
is happy wife and mother. Then from
a clear sky comes the shock of tragic
disappointment; she learns that the wo-
man from whom her husband had fled to
city several years before to escape has
renewed her hold on him. And to COM
plicate the situation her husbands un-
Gle, who has in the meantime become
the woman's husband, learns of the re-
lationship of his wife and nephew.
Once again the girls heroism saves at
least-o one life and the happiness of sew
eral persons. Just how this is accom-
plished it would hardly be fair to the
prospective witness of the picture tt
tell, for the story has climax that is q
combination of surprise and thrill anc
foreknowledge of it would lessen the
enjoyment.
Russell Thaw, Evelyn Nesbit's son
has an important part iE the drama
, and others prominently placed in thu
, cast are such well known film favorite
as Lois Meredith, Eugene Strong ant
Charles Wellesley.

RUSSELL THAW With
EVELYN NESBlT IN
Her LATEST PICTURE
AT VIRClNIAN THEATRE

Nothing on the motion picture pro-
oram for this season promises to arouse
more pleasurable anticipation than the
production of Evelyn Nesbit's latest
picture, "Her Mistake. In this, as
was the case in Redemption, she has
the assistance of her unusually gifted
small son, Russell Thaw, and in addition
to him she has the support OF cast
whose every member is well and favor
ably known to film patrons. Among
those most prominent are Lois Mere
dith, Eugene Strong and Charles Wells
.'Her Mistake" is a most un usual
story. 1t has its beginning in the meet
ing of wealthy youth who has made
cunning trip to escape from the tolls OF
a too calculating young woman IN his
home CITY. Unlocked for adventure
wavlavs him in backwoods township.
He meets a charming, unsophisticated
daughter of the village and almost at
the same time he meets the town bully.
AS result of the second meeting the
young man is so seriously injured tnat
only by an operation of blood translu-
sion can his life be saved-and it is the
girl who in this extremity gives up her
blood to him. The two are married and
return to the boys home. But there
the ingenuousness which had charmed
him in the country pals on him and
eventually, neglecting his wife and his
habv boy, he seeks distraction in the
company Of the woman from whom he
had formerly fled. She in the mean
time has become the wife of his wealthy
uncle. and one day. as was to have beer
expected, his wife and her husband
learn of the deception the two have
been practicing. The situation is full o1
dramatic possibilities and in the de-
nouement of the story these are en-
thusiastically embracd-but after sucl
fashion that in addition to the thri'
that is anticipated there is a complete
surprise-a surprise of the kind to keel
"Her Mistake" and Evelyn Nesbit il
the memories Of the audience long afte
the picture has been seen.
