At The Yirand. will be the last chance in Kingston to visit| ayhouse and see the! rsal feature, "After startiry beautiful and! ce Cunard, that has been "After the Way" is " but there is mo war story, as the events are all supposed to happen just after the hostilities have ceased. Miss Cunard has a role in this production that gives her plenty of opportunity to display her superb talent and this film is pro- claimed as her best work in every way. There was also other films to complete this splendid attraction, such as the Pathe News, an O. Henry story and a very funny comedy that along with Snider's trained goats, who presented an exceedingly clever act, rounded out a programme that nome should miss this evening. At Griflin's, A highly delighted audience view- ed the charming programme present- ed at this theatre last evening, and expressed their appreciation jn no pignant Billie Burke appeared in her new photo play "The Make- Believe Wife," which contained an abun- dance of fine comedy. The story of the comedy is one of exceptional in- terest and the characterization of the star is one long to be remembered. LOf equal merit is the splendid photo- play '"Ace High," which gives Tom Mix, the star, an excellent role, and caused much tomment to be. heard amongst the audience. For thrills and excitement this photoplay ocan- .not he beaten, and taken on the whole the programme shown is without a doubt one af the best shown at this theatre in many a day. At the Strand. The story of "The Children in the House," featuring Norma Talmadge, to be shown at the Strand Theatre, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, covers. a varied action "with 'thrills, laughter, tears and poetic 'fancy much interwoven. Arthur Vincent, a real estate dealer, neglects his wife and two children while in the toils of Jane Courtenay, an empty- headed cabaret dancer. Cora, the wife, frequently visits her sister Alice, who lives next door. Alice is the wife of Fred Brown; a detective, and has three children, With the family lives Fred's bachelor bro- ther, Charles, who is a former lover of Cora, and cannot bear to see her neglected by her husband. It is during one of Cora's visits to the house, when Charles goes off and sits by the fire alone to try and still his heart-ache, that the child- ren of the house and her children come to beg him for a '"'good-night" story. While he is deliberating one of the children asks him why he has ne wife and children of Iris own, and in this he finds his inspiration. Un- known to him, Cora is listening be- hind the curtain. He told his story of love and its death in a thrilling way. Later, "Cora and Charles are #} cause his money is giving out. So THE HOLD-UP MEN thrown together, and she admits that her heart has been made a cold stone, too. And the old love blazes up fiercely in both hearts. In the meantime Arthur is in danger of losing his cabaret girl be- he plans to rob the bank. His plan is ingenious; and when the bank is robbed, suspicion is cast upon Charles, the cashier. - Charles is un- able to declare his alibi, that he was with Cora, for fear of bringing scandal upon her and her children. But the ¢hildren at play have found the hiding-place of the real thieves. And the. police fight that follows, brings happiness to Charles, to Cora and to the children in the house.
