And 1t Is the type of story that might have been written for MT. Meighan. so smoothly does the mantle of the role slip about Mir. Meigham.
 The picture has pleasing theme of mans love for five motherless chill dren intrusted to his care by dying friend He brings the children to his home, to the disgust of his intended bride and to the delight of his private secretary.

 Patrons of the theatres are talking of nothing but "Smilin@ Through" nowadays. Eight reels. Norma Tal- madge's masterpiece. Moonlight and roses. Passionate, ciinging love. Touch of tradegy. Beauty. Flowers. Soft music. Loveliest story ever told.
 The worlds most beautiful picture, So goes the word. Is it any wonder that "Smilin' Through" Is enjoying sensationally successful engagement everywhere.
