THE KING'S THEATRE
■ —$ How the charms of a woman won a man from his wife is pictured in "The Lily and the Rose," the new Triangle play coming to tho King' 6 Theatro tonight. Lilian Gish, who is such a favourite with many of the Dominion's picture-lovers, played the part of Mary Randolph, the sweet Southern lily, and Roszika Dolly, tho Russian -denseuse, played La Bette Rose. Miss Gislx is the girl of the South. She is shown livins in a beautiful house, surrounded by flowers and shrubs; Then a fashionable relative fires tho girl's imagination by tolling her of an cx-football hero and a master of men. She meets and marries him. The man soon tires of his young wife, and goes to see a lively show. Ha it not much interested until Miss Dolly appears in an Oriental dance. Then swiftly follows his acquaintance with hor. This Griffith feature has a most unusual finale, and is credited with being the best Triangle feature to be shown hore. Setting, acting, and detail are said to be remarkably fine.
