ON THE SCREEN.

STRAND—TO-NIGHT. "LOVE'S OPTION." The story of "Love's Option," to be screened to-night, opens with some striking scenes in a South American copper mine. The incidents that happen in the South American mine form the introduction of a remarkable story, which tells of one man's desperate endeavours to ruin another. The leading feminine role in the picture is played by the popular English actress, Dorothy Boyd, and the male lead is played by Pat Aherne. THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. "A MAN'S MAN." The picture, "A Man's Man," based Patrick Kearney's stage play, is a romance of Hollywood, filmed there and showing intimately the type of moviestruck girl, and her sacrifices "to get into the movies," that Hollywood abounds with. It shows the famous Hollywood premiere of "The Broadway Melody" at Grauman's famous Chinese Theatre, the big show affair of Filmdom, with famous stars on parade in one of the red letter nights of the screen season, and other intimate details of the lives of film folk when they are not glittering in the kleigs. William Haines is in the stellar role, while Josephine Dunn plays opposite him.
