Tho dialogue is rlear throughout, and obviously no effort or money has been >pared lo mako the picturo ono of tho best. "HOT FOR PARIS." A COIIKDY TRIUMPH. One of tho cleverest and wittiest of comedies will be exhibited at tho Majestic Theatro next week, when "Hot For Paris" will bo presented. With a great comedy cast headed by Victor McLaglen, El Brendel, Fifi Dorsay, and Polly Moran, this picture sweeps along a patii beset with all seta of adventure, romantic and humorous. McLagien and Brendel are a. pair of flailora who arrive- at Havre en route to Paris. Mc-La-len is the winner of thousands of francs in a lottery, and when a mild old gentleman appears on (he wharf looking for the new millionaire tho millionaire thinks he is a policeman on his trail sinco the last visit to Havre, and with his other Bailor, El Brendel, he leaves the ship and begins lo look for adventure.' "Hot For Paris'* has a very definite story to tell, and the only difference between it and any other comedy ia that it tells it with a thousand times more good humour than most others. Victor actually sings a song, but, as some critic has said, lie eings with birt face more than with anything else. Fifi Dorsay .a hoard in some preffy numbers, while El Hronucl and Polly .Moran are co-featured in some scenes that must make Charles Chaplin liimst-lf writhe with jealousy. This is a perfectly gorgeous comedy, and intending patroni should reserve seats now at The Bristol Piano Company, where tho box plans are open.
