"Worst Woman in Paris" "The Worst Woman in Paris," Jesso L Lasky's new production for Fox Film, is playing to-day at the Alham bra with the handsome, debonair, and sophisticated, Adolphe Menjou and the aljuring, exotic and fascinating Benita Humo in the featured roles. Jesse L Lasky, whose name is always associat- ed with the unique and 'unusual in all of his screen (ndertakings, once again brings to the screen a production dar. ing in theme, situation and dialoguo. This time he delves deeply into the life of a Parisinn demi-monde, and follows her quest for romance from the gay spots of Paris to the quiet country life of Kansis. The story concerns itself with a Parisian beauty whose scandalous affairs on the Coti tinent brand her as the worst woman in Paris. Her association with A wealthy man-about-town reaches a state-of- boredom, and she-returns to America. In Konsax she finds the love she has always dreamed of, but the shadow of her past is too great an obstacle to overcome, and she it obliged to return to Paris once more to take up her notorius association with her gay comrade. Adolphe Mon- jou, as the suave Parisian playboy, and Benila Hume as the woman whose affairs are the gosalp of Paris, are both beautifully suited for the roles they portray Fox Film should be congratulated for its foresight in selecting these two outstanding stara for a truly brilliant pleture, so clever- ly produced by Jesse L. Lasky, The cast in support of Menjou and Miss Hume is Jended by Harvoy Stephens und Helen Chandler, both of whom do admirably well in prominent roles. The rest of the cast, Margaret Seddon, Adele St. Mule, Leonard Carey, Maidel Turner and George Irving, arc splendid in their potrayals. Moning Bell, who wrote and directed the picture, deserves high praise.

Meet- ing accidentally, they fall in love and are married in Oriental fashion. After several months of much hap piness, Grant is forced to return to the United States, promising to return. He doos, it under entirely tlifferent circumstances.
