“THE RIVER’S END”
COMING TO STRAND
MONDAY-TUESDAY
“The River’s End,”, by James Oliver
Curwood, will be shown at the Strand
Theater next Monday and Tuesday,
October 24 and 25. The book, “The Riv
er's End," has been read by thousands,
the eighth edition having been ordered,
it is a beautiful, and interesting story
an ’ the picture should prove even more
ertaining.
John Keith peered out of the little
log hut at the snow waste that stretch
ed miles to the horizon, and hesitated.
For two long years he had seen nothing
but arctic snows, no one but Indians —in
that bitter chase in the frozen
Northland, relentlessly pursued by an
officer of the Royal Mounted, who had
sworn that he should hang for murder.
Now the chase was at an end; his
pursuer was dead of a frost-bitten lung,
and buried under the floor of the cabin,
where the wolves would not find him.
' And John Keith was clad in the dead
man’s eiothes, the uniformed officer of
the Royal Mounted.
As his captor lay dying, John Keith
had won his confidence; he had con
vince him that he was innocent, or jus
tified in the killing of which he was ac
cused.
It was the dying man, who bore a
remarkable resemblance to Keith, who
had urged him to return to civilization
under his name and dying he said,
“You win or lose, when the the Chief
first sets eyes on you.
Keith took his inspection and the
questioning without flinching. He had
reported his own death; he had passed
the critical stage, for he was not rec
ognized.
As Conniston of the Royal Mounted
jke went to the dead man's cabin, but
there a surprise awaited him. lor Con
niston had not told him he had a sister,
as Conniston had been informc tl by his
own*people with whom he had quar
relled that she was dead. But she was
there, waiting for the brother she had
not seen since she was it child.
She flew straight to his arms, this
slip of a girl, and as she clung to him.
the fragrance of her hair made his
senses reel. It was the first woman’s
caress he had known in years, and
Keith, the man of iron, who had looked
death in the face and laughed, the man
wanted for murder, was shaken to his
soul.
For Keith knew instantly that he lov
ed this girl, and the horror of the part
he was playing unnerved him. He de
termined to tell her all and then quit
the world of civilization forever. But
as the hours passed and then the days
and weeks, Keith could not bring him
self to the point of undeceiving her.
And this is the beginning of one of
the most interesting stories ever read.
See it Monday and Tuesday at The
Strand Theater.

How Better Than Pills?
Th,e question Ims been asked—ln
what way are Chamberlain's Tablets
superior to the ordinary cathartic liver
pills? Our answer is, they are eusier
and more pleasant to take and their ef
fect is so gentle that one hardly real
izes that it is produced by a medicine.
Then, they not only move the bowls but
improve the appetite and strengthen
'the digestion.
