 The dealer who insists on having baskets and boxes that measure strictly up to standard will greatly please the people. He may have to charge little more, but he can ad- vertise the fact that all his measure ments are strictly honest. His frank ness and sincerity will prove great benefit to his trade

THE Cheater."

An interesting and distinctly un-
usual bill OF photoplays Is on view
at Crandalrs Metropolitan Theatef

peal in cinematographic form under

Allison the pictured star. is added
the thrillingly hazardous Photographic ic
record of Sir Ernest Shackelton's two
year struggle to reach the South
Pole, released under the Illuminating
title OF THE Bottom of The World"
"The Cheater" is a photodrama
that possesses all of the fascination
of any play that gives the layman
a peep behind the scenes. In the
early scenes of this play are revealed
many OF the tricks of those oily
charlations who pretend to be blessed
with clairvoyant powers and an abil-
ity to peer into the future as well
as the past. A band OF these skill
full plunderers concentrate their clever
energies upon a wealthy scion OF the
nobility whose little daughter Eve is
bedridden. The girl who poses as
Vashti Dethic. perceives in the sor-
row of Lord AsgarbS an opportunity
to acquire pretty face. With her
accomplices she takes up her abode
in the mansion of her prospective
victim and begins the chicanery that
is supposed to inspire healing faith
and cure by divine intercession.
So complete is her assumption Of
sanity goodness that the faith she
inspires does prove efficacious and
opens the way for her tardy reforma-
tion and the recovery Of lost con-
tentment.
"The Bottom OF The World" Is
unique among historical Aim dramas.
1t depicts with a degree OF detailed
hardship that conveys almost the i'm
preston of actual personal partici-
patton one Of the most remarkable
undertakings in the annals OF scien-
tific research. The extreme dangers
that confronted Sir Ernest Shackle-
ton and his crew OF courageous ad-
venturers in the anarctic will never
be fully grasped until this picture
has been viewed and the slow toll
enacted by the crushing tone Office
and snow really witnessed.
