Miss- Murray's face the results of
her recent close contact witll fire.
This uiifori jiiaie ami painful acci

enjoying a. well earned res: at the
Koslyu Inn following tho comple
tion .of I,or latest Paramount pic
ture, "The Gilded Lily."
After the : ■> one was thought
to he seriously injured. Miss Mur
ray having suffered what appeared
to be only shin burns, but as the
wounds d.d not respond lo treat
ment. dainty star, whose beauty
is so » 11 known all over tUe world,
became alarmed and Dr. Uillen,
whose success i:i similar cases has
brought him s;ti ii renown, was call
ed in. When i!:o interviewed after
his examination o' tiie i'aramount
star, ho was very. reserved in his
statements J would not commit
himself.
>. 'The burns, while Apparently only
surface" ones, arc really deeper than
at first supposed," ho staled. "In
fact, many of the tissues have been
broken down, but I have hopes of
bringing about a euro without the
slightest indie, tion of- a sejr." Then
he added feelingly, "It would be a
sin and a s'anme ii anyone as beauti
ful aa Miss Murray had tiiat same
beauty nmrrcd."
It is to bo hoped that the treat
ment of the eminent specialist will
be successful and the many friends
and. admirers of t ie star of "The
Gilded Lily" prophesy that she will
soon be in ti:e midst of another of
her successful screen productions.
When Dr. Gillon breaks thru his usu
al reserve to state that he has
"hopes" of a cure, tho possibilities
are all in favor of the patient.
