KING'S THEATRE.
"Trifling Women," the fine Metro film drama at the King's Theatre this week has been well received. It is an unusual picture built up in unusual fashion—a tale is told within a tale. The story opens in a quiet French village, where a young miss proceeds to set' the village youths one ■ against the other. Her father, a novelist,. brings her to her senses by recounting the plot of his latest writing, "Black Orchids," and it is this inner tale which provides the major theme. From_ the tragedy of "Black Orchids" the picture returns quickly to the lighter story of *the village garden, a clever ending to a powerful film drama. An interesting Gazette reports world happenings in bright style, and this week's comedy races through nonsensical situations happily enough. The orchestral music 16 most enjoyable. x
