At tho Casino.

Pauline Frederick, the popuar emo
tional actress, altho appearing In q
picture that does not give her as
great an opportunity to display her
talents as previous vehicles, pleases
in her role Of the accused wife, In
THE Woman in Room Thirteen"
showing at the Casino.
The story deals with the unhappy
marriage of a couple who are finally
divorced, and the punishment OF the
former husband of the wife when she
marries the sweetheart OF her girl
hood days. The preying employer al
SO has an important place in the pic
ture. The story is not new, but the
admirable acting OF Miss Frederick,
and a new twist at the end of the
picture. holds the interest.
The supporting cast is good. Robert

ployer, Is excellent and Charles

band, Is convincing. John Bowers,
cast as the sweetheart Of former
