In spite of the fact that there were

Not content were the producers
with merely using the same scenes of

stories of Sherlock Holmes, but they
went into London for the actors who

To tell the whole story would be to

was handed down for generations. to
the effect that just prior to the death
of the head of the family, a large
flaming hound appeared on the moors
of the estate and -bayed its fearful
warning. How Sherlock Holmes
delved into the mystery and abolished

Paris may be summarized in this de-
scription of her own appearance for

of its normal waist line, the sleeves
tightly fitting and coming well down
over the wrist. A flexible bracelet of
brilliants, just one, please note; and
a pin of brilliants sparkled at one side
of her cOrSage. The black satin tur-

The mystery of a man found stran-
gled with a twisted strand of woman's
hair is the motive of The Valley of
Silent Men," a Cosmopolitan pictur-
ization of the story by James Oliver
Curwood, which comes to the Isis the
first three days of next week. The
scenes are laid in the Canadian Rock
les, around Lake Louise, and there the
Cosmopolitan company. headed by
Alma Rubens and under the direction
of Frank Borzage, spent twelve weeks
filming the picture.
Lew Cody plays the part of a cor
pora1 in the Royal mounted police,
and together with Miss Rubens faced
the perils of snowslides and accidents
in the mountains as well as the dan
gerous glaciers above Lake Louise and
the icy waters of the Kepawa river,
which they were compelled to swim.
The trail led from Banff straight
over the mountain passes in the early
spring before the snow began to melt,
and miles of Whitehead wastes spread
before the telephoto camera Miss
Rubens slipped into a crevasse of the
great glacier, and is pictured climbing
down precipitous rocky cliffs.
