“BURNING THE CANDLE”
Did you ever “burn the candle?” The result of a profligate
is vividly portrayed in this gripping photodrama. A young,
Southerner loses respectability and his bride throngh his one
4reat weakness. That he finally is brought back to happiness
w due to his smoldering love for his wife, which finally flares
up, showing in its true state the wretchedness which “burning
the candle” has brought him.
Tomorrow—William Russell in “THE LOVE HERMIT,”
a powerful drama of love and high finance.
