"When Doctors Disagree," in which
Mabel Normand comes to the Wash

embodies a score of details which
make it artistic.
One of the funniest of all the hu
morous things with which Mary Pick

Long Legs" which, will be seen at the
Washington Sunday, Monday tpd
Tuesday, is loaded in a series'' of
scenes in which Mary, as Judy Abbott

is-to be shown at the Washington
theatre, commencing Friday, brings
forth.
The triangle, as old as society itself,
offers a number of angles of concep. I

woman, Helen Winthrop, is thrown by!
fate into the household of the Scarrs. I

ing it Is expected that the triangle will
include Helen Winthrop, the husband
and Mrs. Scarr. On the other hand.!
the author has woven the detail around :
Mrs. Ccarr, the offender; the ne'er-do- j
well society "favorite," and Helen !
W inthrop, with the latter as the pro
tagonist. In saving the wife's reputation,
Helen Winthrop makes the supreme
sacrifice for a woman the loss of her
own good name.
The subtlety of the triangular sit
uation, to which the unsuspecting Mr.
Scarr adds the fourth angle, has been
brought out in "The Fear Woman"
by Miss Forrester better nrobablv
than in any other play in which the
vivid Miss Frederick has ever ar-
peared.
Nowadays a successful photoplay is
