but add to its popularity. "Polly" is
the star rider of the circus the child
of a long line of performers with a
love for the work ana excitement in
her blood. She Is without education,
except as the old circus people havo
given her haphazzard instructions.
Fata decrees that one night she
stumbles as she jumps through the
hoops and is injured, lie circus can
not wait for accidents, and she is car
tied to t'he house, which happens to
be a parsonage, whose minister is
vnune. handsome and unmarried. Here
she is educated and remains until the
busy-bodies raise a row, and Polly is
toM to co. but stays as the minister's
wife. The title role is taken by Miss
Edith Taliaferro, a most talented
young actress
