It is a picture play with a mighty appeal and a lesson that every woman should profit by. It is the Vitagraph’s greatest dramatic picture play since “ The Juggernaut.” In “ The Sins of the Mothers,” the 10,000 dollar prize drama. Anita Stewart plays the part of the girl whose inherited taint given to her by a mother who had driven her husband to suicide, cannot be surpressed although reared in a life of seclusion. Earle Williams enacts the trying role of the husband, whose fight for his 'honour and his wife’s ended so tragically. On the same evening the wellknown startling film depicting “ Mid-
