"The House of a Thoiisand Can- dies" is the offering at the Grand Opera House the last three days of this week by the famous Rex Stock Company. On a certain gtreet corner in "Li'l Ole New York" a few years ago when this famous myst ry play was in its hay day, and E man stood and after gazing at the bill- | board displays and absorbing all the | alluring ads. remarked "Great Scott | --what = frightful lot of candles." | --However, i. does take only of candles, but of scenery, of actors, of ability ent, to produce a play of ter, in the manner the author 3 ed.

Zana, of course, plays the | girl in the case, while Billy Seymoar | will be the young lover, and Billy Yule, for a change, will be a deep | eyed villian. This play has an uni-| que standing in regard to record | runs. - The run of the play in Lon- | don, England, was long but the scribe has no record of its length. Iu New York it features among the four longest runs. In Chicago it ran second to recerd, Phill, it broke ali records, as it did in Los Angeles, Calif. The scenery and effgcts the Rex Comipany have, lavished upon it, are worthy of a three 'dollar attrac- tion. thi 2% At the Alles, To-day. A delightful Goldwyn comedy from the pert of Mary Roberts Rine- hart, "The Glorious Fool," will be presented at the Alen Theatre to- day. The story takes place in a hos- pital, with the heroine a sympathetic probationer and the hero'a private patient who insists upon marrying his nurse and leaving all his wealth to her. But he doesn't die. Upon his recovery, he assigns himself the arduous task of wooing his wife, Given Richard Dix as the man who does the wooing and Helene Chad- wick as the girl who is the wooed, one may expect a delightful comedy. Both Miss Ohdawick and Mr. Dix 'have appeared together in a number of pictures ,and each understands the other's method of acting. At The Strand. A mystery photoplay that is real- ly a mystery until almost the very end was revealed last night at the Strand theatre where "Find the Wo- man' began a run of three days. In this Cosmopolitan-Paramount ple- ture featuring Alma Rubens there 1s presented the most engrossing mur- der story ever filmed. If you go: in for thrills; adventure and tense situ- ations you will have a feast in this picture, which was splendidly direct- ed by Tom Terriss. Charlie Chaplin fn "Pay Day" was also shown for the first time in Kingston. The pre- dominance of Charlie in the esti- mation of the theatre--going pubic was again demonstrated by the many enquiries by phone |and the early comers at the performance. Bath News Budget.

There was no Burdock Blood Bit- ters in those days, so Job had to suf- fer in silence. Now-a-days no one need endure the misery of boils, Boils are simply evidences of the bad blood within coming to the sur- face and just when you get rid of one, another seems ready to take its place and prolong your misery. All the poulticing and lancing you may do will not stop more coming. " What you have to do is take BURDOCK BLOOD BITTERS and the blood will be cleansed of all its impurities, and then every boil will disappear. Mr. Roy MoSwain, High Bank: P. B. kL, writes:--"I was troubled with boils for some time, and had as many as fifteen on my neck at once. After takifig one bottle of Burdock Blood Bitters they commenced to get better, and after I had taken two bottles I was relieved of them and felt much better. I think B.
