With these words the artist Waldimir crowned his devotion to the invalid model whom he loved so dearly that, at the bidding of the crystal gazer, he took poison and freed the spirit which would enter Marie's ailing body and renew her health. From that hour Marie grew stronger. Doctor Davidoff, the eminent scientist who had pronounced her case hopeless, was amazed. He told of the remarkable cure to Pierre Loriot, the artist, whose bosom friend. Jacques De Vignes. was a victim of failing health. Pierre had come to that point in life where the will to live is enfeebled. Clemence Villa, the actress renowned as a heartbreaker, had made him riotously happy for a few months until he discovered her baseness. Then, wishing to die, he sought justification for suicide in the desire to benefit his friend. He little thought that Juliette, Jacques' sister, loved him hopelessly. Scouting Waldimir's example, he threw himself into the sea. From that moment Jacques began to mend. Once more active in society, he met Clemence and fell victim to her wiles. When she demanded money he was shocked, but even that did not cool his passion for her. At last he learned from her own lips that the bills which annoyed her had been paid by a foreign nobleman. It seemed to him then that the portrait of Pierre, who had given him his soul, rebuked him for his folly. At this time Doctor Davidoff, traveling in Corsica, made a startling discovery. Pierre had been saved from the sea by fishermen. The doctor insisted that he return home. Juliette was overjoyed, but Jacques fell mortally ill on Pierre. Too late, Clemence came to see her victim, but they would not permit her to profane his last moments. He was already dying. The soul of Pierre, which had sustained him, was the soul of Pierre, and Pierre needed that soul with which to love Juliette. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
