Taken from the Lottie Blair

the sensation of the current theat-
rical year. Nothing like It has ever

mors has been enlarged upon to
such an extent that not only a new
drama has been woven about the
love story Of Anna Moore and Da-

in which to express the theme is
evolved.

scenes of exquisite beauty in a pic

ing characters and a soul stirring

One Of the greatest casts ever
