If. M. Warner has never had a better role than the one he portrays in "A Fugitive from Matrimony,” that of a society young man who flees from the risk of matrimonial entanglement as from a plague. In Lis strenuous efforts to do this, he happens to do a good turn' to an escaped convict, in which lie changes clothes, and finds his way into the bedroom of a society girl whose mother is an ardent husband hunter. Thus lie sticks his head right into the matrimonial lioose unconsciously, and gets roped in. As "The Fugitive” we see Warner in tin* right kind of role, the role that made him famous on both speaking stage and screen, and it is one that should vastly increase lii.s popularity. The story is sparkling with wit and humour, and a word of praise is certainly merited by Seena Owen tor her splendid support of the star.
