Hubby had been jazzing around with other wo- | men most of their married life, but | the first tinic she tried it she got caught. This is just the start. The maze of domestic difficulties that en- sued justly warrants the title 'Tangl- ed Threads," in which Bessie Barris- cale plays the leading rold. There is a smashing climax to this latest pic- ture of hers, a climax full of suspense and mystery and a thrill that ~vill pull you out of your seat Ane. her splendid feature picture is "The Turf Conspiraey,™ which is said to be one | of the best racing pictures ever pro- duced. This is an all British produec- tion, and is taken from the famous wovel of that name by Nat Gould, and #ith Violet Hopson and Gerald Ames as join: stars. There are comedies | and other reels of good pictures, and | Mcrtimer and Wilbur in an act of highly amusing vaudevile.

The old plays had no glitter or flippancy. | They were deep and as solemm-as the | destiny 'of man. The horizon of the | old plays was eternity and their score took in the everlasting, and'> also i brought forth as characters the an- | gels and saints and sinners. Not so | with "Experience which PF. Ray {Comstock and Morris Gest will pre- sent at the Grand on Tuesday, Nov- ember 18th, for the one performance jonly. The first plays were called | miracle plays, and for a time they | had the approval of the church. Af- terward, the miracle plays were suc- ceeded by cycle plays, kndwn as morality plays. These old plays i particularly pictured the wages i I sin, and they were written in | 'ous rhetoric. Naturally, in the old | miracle and morality plays the cha- racters were very symbolic. For in- | | Stance, the devil was always a very | | important personage, and one of the { most thrilling scemes for' the audi- { ences of the olden days was the aect- ling showing the bottomless pit of | Hades. --Advt. 3 « At the Strand. . The first picture in which Evelyn Greeley has been starred by herself | {is "Phil-for-Short," and the Strand | theatre takes great pleasure in an- tnounciug that this delightfully pleas- ing and fascinating production will : be seen at this playhouse to-day. Miss | Greeley, in this production, takes the i role of Damophilia Iilington, called "Phil" for short. Phil is the daugh- ter of Prof. lllington, a noted Greek | | scholar, and was named Damophilia (after one of Sapho's poems. She is unconventional, ingenuous, child-like and bland in her 'manner. She is also whole-hearted and trues blue. By a trick of circumstances Phil is placed in. the position of making it possibje hater, to marry her to save her from {marriage with an old reprobate | she detests. Alden consents to the | marriage, but they are married in 'name only. Then Alden takes Phil to his old. home in Boston and there | she finally wins his love. ""Phil-for- Short" is certainly a delightrul, un- | usual and wholly fascinating produc- tion. It is a splendid vehicle which to inaugurate Miss stardom.
