Holbrook Blinn in a Powerfnl Photo¬ drama. "Donble Life" the Theme.
World Film Corporation presents the five-part photoplay. "The Family Cuphoard," based on the well-known Brady stage success of the same namfc.
Holbrook Blinn prays the leading character In the story, a man who leads a double life, simply because his home life is uncongenial. He keeps a smart little vaudeville girl "uptown" and is found out by his son, who Is captured by the scheming lit¬ tle stage person. When father and son discover that they are wasting their lives on a worthless object, they reform. Then the husiness man's wife resolves to abjure her society ways and make her home more at¬ tractive to her husband. So all ends happily, the family cupboard being finally cleared of its 'skeletons."
.Mr. Blinn's part is a strong one, and he does it the amplest justice; the part of the girl is played by that charming young artiste, Frances Nel¬ son, who has already sufcessfully ap¬ peared in World Film features.
"The Family Cupboard" will be shown at the Plaza Theatre on Mon¬ day, Jan. 17.
How Julia Marlowe Began.
"It has been noticed that the cur¬ renl ot a lifetime is often determined by chanie," says the veteran dra¬ matic critic, William Winter, in "Va¬ grant Memories," his recently pub¬ lished book of theatrical reminis¬ cence's. 'The history of modern times might, perhaps, have been radically changed if Oliver Cromwell had not heen prevented from emigrating from Kngland, as once he purposed to do, or if Clive had been sent to command llie Hrltisli forces in America, as was Iiropo«ed when the colonies took up arms against the crown.
'More than two hundred years ago a dramatist, sitting in the bar of a London tavern, overheard a girl in the next room reading aloud from a playbook, and he was so pleased hy the sound of her voice and the fluency and the sprightllness of her delivery that he sought acpuaintance with her, obtained her confldence, and opened for her the way to a success¬ ful dramatic career. That girl, a dramatic genius thus accidentally discovered, was Annie Oldfleld, who a(Jx)rnod the English stage for twenty- flve years, whose ashes reat in the cloister of Westminster Abbey, and whose name In one of historic renown.
"The Introduction of Julia Mar¬ lowe to tlie stage was equally an acci¬ dent. A theatrical man^,gei:.in Cin¬ cinnati, having planned to produce a popular comic opera with a chorus compoaed of pupils from the public schools, selected her, tlien a girl of twelve, perceived her theatrical apti¬ tude, and provided the opportunity for its development. That manager was Robert E. J. Mills, and under his direction she made her first appear¬ ance on the stage and passed her juvenile novitiate."
"Pi-ta-mak-au."
Mary Roberts Uinehart lias taken another name. It is Pi-ta-mak-au, which, in the lexicon of the Blackfoot Indians, means Running Eagle. Last summer after her return from Eu¬ rope, where she gathered material for her book on the war, Mrs. Rinehart visited the Blackfeet and was made a raember of the tribe.
Lale in November, discovering from peraonal correspondence lliat tho tribe was in desperate straits and re¬ ceiving insuflicient p.Ovlsions, Mrs. Rinehart had a personal interview wilh Presidenl Wilson, as a result of which provisions were started off to the Blackfeet.
The Indians are duly grateful to Mrs. Rinehart for their activities in their behalf and they have given her a lol of presents. "Between tho In¬ dian stuff war trophies and the gen¬ eral litter of a busy life," says Mrs. Rinehart, '1 work in a atudy so clut¬ tered up that I can hardly turn."
Walpole at the Front. Mr. Hugh Walpole, who is widely known in this country as the authoi of "The Golden Scarecrow" and "The Duchess of Wrexe," Is the cousin of the Earl of Orford, and eon of the Bishop of Edinburgh, but is not often to be met with in English society. He Is at present with the Russian Red Cross; and his admirers would be greatly pleased and not very much surprised to receive from his pen a record of hi« experiences in the do¬ main of the Czar.
"Bedis" Look It Up In Your Dictionary,
strenuous limes inese, in the bookselling world. A prominent New York bookseller recently received a telephone order in the following form:
"Have you a copy of 'The Redis Covered Country'?"
"What?"
" 'Redis Covered Country.' "
"I beg your pardon."
"Redis, Redis, don t you know what 'Redis' is? This is a book by Stewart Edward White."
"Oh, you want 'The Rediscovered Country'."
"Sure."
Turning from the telephone he picked up a sheaf of mall orders which Included an order for one copy ot "Just So Stories" by David Cop- perfield. He filled the order, but Rudyard Kipling will draw the roy¬ alties on that copy of "Just So Stor¬ ies."
A Fighting Parson. Ralph , Connor (the' Reverend Charles W. Gordon, D. D.) who In "The Sky Pilot" gave us a picture of the flghting parson, evidently be¬ lieves In practising what he preaches, because he has gone to the front as chaplain with one of the Canadian contingents. Ever since his flrst great literary success. Dr. Oordon has been steadily writing: and the appearance of "Corporal Cameron" and "The Patrol of the Sun Dance Trail," chronicling the itirrine: life of the
early Canadians, has been marked by the steady rise of his popularity.

Orig¬ inal MMS. and illustrations have been added to the exhibits of the hooks themselves so that in many places they attract collectors and booklovers in general.
