CHAPTER XI.
Tho Vigil.

1857 y o.
From across the small table
Jonathan watched her. 1t made
little shivers Of anxiety run into
her questions. Where was she
going? Who was taking her?
In the kitchen she heard the
clink Of glasses. Janina was
bringing in the pudding. Oh,
Jennie was 30 slow tonight!
Chickie glanced at her wrist
watch.
Jonathan saw that. He reached
over and took her hand, staring
at the nails that shone like little
pink mirrors.
Chiclxie felt his kind eyes. She
knew that they were pleading.
She wouldn't look at them. She
ran her fingers back and forth
over his great hard palm.
He said softly: mot going out
again tonight, Chicl1ie?"
She felt suddenly as though
she would like to cover her face
with his big hands and cry. But
she tossed her head. Again?
Why, jonathan, what do you
mean? You want your own
blessed darling to be a her1nit?"
With a little nervous laugh she
jumped UP and ran from the
room.
Standing at the foot Of the bed.
she saw through a haze the new
dress. A trembling passed over
her, expectant, uneasy, like a
pulse of guilt.
Suddenly she tossed her head
with an impatient. what is the
matter with me!' She began hur,
riedly to dress.
Her face in the mirror gave her
a little stab Of frightened joy
The dark maroon silk threw a soft
flush over her beautiful white
skin and that drape to one side
made her look tall and very slen
der. Her heart swelled with pride
Then with q catch in her heart
she remembered Janina's warn
ing. Even to her milky throat
grew scarlet. She turned hastily
from the mirror. Jennie's ample
form was framed in the door
"Oh, nearly ready, dear?"
She came over all rosy with
pride and gave little loving touch
es here and there about the
skirt. There, now" she whis
pered. "Well, I think it's just
perfect"
In a breathIess hurry, Chickie
ran in and stood before her father.
He took her hand, patting it in an
absent way. IT wish you'd stay
home once in a while, Chickie."
"Oh, Jonathan" Tears crept
into Chickie's eyes. why ever
since last year; ever since Mary
went and got married. I've just

from staying in so much"
Jonathan had no chuckle in him.
He said heavily: II haven't noticed

over his hair, pinching his mus.

CHAPTER TX.
On the Now Road.

Jimmy was the first man who
ever asked her to marry him.
She let him go away; let the door
close softly.
Yet, even as the still hush
dropped on her heart, she heard
in its depths q low singing like
the ripple Of a woodland stream.
Someone loved her-ah-loved her
so it made his face all white.
Loved her-Chickie- like that.
The elfin joy kept murmuring,
awakened in her a serene, blithe
self-assurance. Jimmy loved her
and Jimmy was a big, fine fellow,
better than. nearly any man she
knew.

enters his household under false
lmpression-ske makes him believe
that she has lost her memory. The
scientist, who enjoys to write high
brow plays, thinks the little stranger
would make marvellous actress and
such a test might restore her
memory. All the time said scientist
was falling in love wit hhis subject.
He engages the producer Of 1.-THE

producer turns villain and plots with
Colleen to jazz up the serious scenes

out of the scientist.
The poor little lost memory girl
knows that she loves the man who
closed her first success, THE Lost
Kimono." So I ask you in all sin

trick to the man she loves? Well,
she doesn't. She marries him. The

OLD THEME DRESSED UP
WITH A COLLEGE DEGREE

1t seems to me, after seeing This
Freedom" that the author has at
tempted to put ? college cap and
gown on an old theme-the problem
of woman trying to have a career
and yet be a mother and a wife at
the same time.
Right in the beginning let me tell
you that have not read this book
and I cannot judge how faithfully
1t has been filmed.
am concerned with it as it is
being presented as screen entertain
ment at the Apollo this week. I feel
that the director has attempted 20
do too much. This might be the
fault Of the book. I don't know. AS
developed on the screen the story Is
confusing and much OF the time 1t is
not convincing. As a photoplay. l
am sure that 1t Is not another IF

me that 1t was not only poorly di-
rected. but poorly acted And yet
some Of the work OF Fay Compton as
the woman who tried to mix a bust
ness career with the job OF bringing
up three children. Is effective. But
Son the whole this picture did not get
hold OF me as I expected. I believe
the theme Of A. S. NJ. Hutchinson is
too involved to be made into photo
play, That opinion is based upon the
film and not upon knowledge OF the
book. There is too much tragedy in
this film for me.

the screen. This picture is the
Raphael Of the screen world. One
beautiful scene melts into another
one of even more surprising beauty.
I am not throwing my hat up in the
air and bowling foolish words. I
saw this picture at a private show
ing several weeks ago, and l ha l
given it much attention. AS you
look at Monsieur Beaucaire" You
feel that you are slipping into
Paradise Of beauty sort of a far
away world OF which you have
dreamed so often. Here Is a pho o.
play which lifts the industry to the
same high plane that THE Mirac e
Man" has done for the stage. The
master touch OF pictorial artistry is
revealed In this picture. Such a pic
lures gives me renewed confidence IN
the future Of the screen.
There is quiet dignity and charm
to Tarkington's romance Of King
Louis XIV of France. The court was
at or near it's height of pomp and
ceremony. AS far as I am convinced
there is no question concerning the
romantic value of this story. Am
sure we will all admit that 1t is the
perfect vehicle for the greatest lover
of the screen.
And Valentino acts in this photo.
play. Beaucaire becomes a living,
loveable fellow. A dashing hero in
a too dashing court. A great heart
breaker who learns his lesson-that
pretty face is not always on the
lovely woman.
There is a polish and sureness in
Valentines acting which was miss
ing in his earlier pictures He Is
now in command Of his artistry He
is no longer just a sheik but Valen.
