AMUSEMENTS. Tho soft-scented night, the liquid moon, and h-er warm fragrance caught him in their spell. Duty, honor, and friend- - ship seemed , fur away, in the unconquerable surge of ‘ MIDSUMMER MADNESS.’ From the Society Novel, ‘His Friend and His Wife,’ 'by Cosmo Hamilton. The ‘New York Sun’ said: “William Ho Mille’s creation slops into greatness and classifies itself by absolute merit as a superb entertainment. Jt has that tine virtue of being a complete dramatic structure to begin with. To this have been added real acting, beautiful photography, a sense of taste, and composition. ' It is unquestionably the greatest legitimate dramatic production the screen has over seen. Nothing in 1 Midsummer Madness ’ imposes on one’s sense of credulity, and thoro is no jarring nolo cf anachronism in tho good social atmosphere through which the action proceeds.” ITS A PARAMOUNT! The w-Oman’s whole being cried out for affection. But the lover she married had changed to a cold, plodding husband. The man was an ardent, old-time friend, feeding her hungry heart with the thrill her romance had lost. When tho last stirring scene is ended you'll know far more of modern love and marriage.
