HIS MAJESTY'S THEATRE. "Tea for Three," which will be shown to-night and to-morrow night, is a thoroughly entertaining example of modern sophisticated comedy. Highpower thrills and screamingly funny comedy alternate throughout the picture, which describes the comolications in the martial relationship of a very jealous husband and his pretty, alluring young wife, through the intentional plotting of the husband's "best friend." An Our Gang comedy, entitled "Heebee-Jeebees," will also be screened.
