FIGHTING PAPSON
AND AN ACTRESS
Play Important Parts in Held
To Answer" Next
Wednesday

A story decidedly out Of the or
binary is dramatically told in'Held
to Answer" with House Peters, play
ing at the Rylander next Wednesday
Peter Clark MacFarlane, one Of
the best-liked authors of the day,
has never written anything more
thrilling than this drama of fight
ing minister, an actress and the
criminal courts. He has taken as
his central character young actor
who deserts the stage to preach the
word of God and serve humanity
in small Western city. An actress
friend follows him and, through
jealousy manages to have him ac-
cused of theft. ne4
Mr.. MacFarlane has woven tale
that holds one spell-bound. 1t is
no wonder that the novel enjoyed
the largest sale of any book ever
published in America and it is said
that the motion picture version is
even more absorbing and thrilling.
House Peters enacts the role of the
fighting minister who conducts his
own defense when called into court
to answer the. charge of theft. The
important role of the actress is play
ed by Grace Carlyle who has seldom,
il ever, been provided with part
more suitable to her talents.
James Morrison has the role of
young man who falls under the spell
of the actress even to the extent of
robbing his employers to obtain
funds with which to entertain her.
Evelyn Brent, the captivating Eng
lish star, is seen as the heroine who
falls in love with the minister and
upholds him until he is vindicated.
Others who enact the principal roles
include "Bulr' Montana, Lydia
Knott and John Sainpolis.

wonderful herbal remedies have steadily
endured for over fifty years and are as

DR.. r. v. Pierce, when young and
rising physician in Pennsylvania
learned the secrets OF Natures healing;
he noticed the effect Of certain herbs
that regulate the disorders Of women,
also that the Indian women passed
easily thru motherhood, and, using the
same herbs and roots, he compounded
IN unequalled remedy for women, which
he called DR.. Pierce's Favorlte Prescrip-
tion. Thousands of unsolicited testi-
monials from grateful women bear wit
ness To its healing powers. Or. Pierce's
phenomenal success was due to the
purity Of his medicines and to the con-
