AMUSEMENTS.

POLLARD’S PICTURES, THE FOLLIES GIRL, OLIVE THOMAS. On Monday evening at the Princess Theatre Olive Thomas, the famous Midnight Follies artist, better known as “The Harrison Fisher Girl,” will be starred by Pollard's Pictures in her second Triangle feature. This big Triangle feature, “An Even Break, is a gigantic musical comedy on canvass, and although it is a picture the Jazy' Bands, Ilie ballets and the chorus are real productions of musical comedy and in one scene Olive Thomas leads a ballet ot one hundred dreams of beauty, who are seen under multi-coloured lighting effects. The cafe scenes are miracles of splendour and an exact reproduction ol Minot’s Cafe, the largest pleasure palace of Broadway' pictures, the cafe in which the most famous of American music hall beauties is the star. “An Even Break” is not all frivolity, for many' emotional scenes of great pathos are woven into the story, and sensation also plays a big part with a collision between a racing motor car and a train which is an alarming piece of reality'. “An Even Break” is one of the Triangle’s best and tells a brilliant story of the lure of the stage. “ A beautiful flower that is mostly stalk,” is a critic’s sly way of alluding to Olive Thomas’s shapely limbs. “ Carriage Call ioi,” the fifth episode of the Vitagraph’s serial “The Secret Kingdom,” the supporting picture to the big star feature is a particularly interestingone, and pictures the further adventures of Philip and the Princess Julia at the great ball given in honohr of the Princess.

AID FOR KIDNEYS. DO NOT endanger life when THERE IS A WAY TO AVOID IT.

Why will people continue to suffer tin* agonies of kidney complaint, backijAie, urinary disorders, lameness, headaches-, langour, why allow them-* selves to become chronic invalids when a tested remedy is offered them? Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills have been used in kidney trouble for years, and have been tested in thousands of cases. If you have any, even one, of the symptoms of kidney disease, act now.' Dropsy- or Bright’s disease may set in and make neglect dangerous. Rend this remedy:

Mr J. Fanselow, Marlborough ■Street, Grey mouth, says:—“For some time I had marked symptoms of kidney trouble. The secretions were disordered, being thick and cloudy and containing a rod sediment. There was also a constant nagging ache in my back which made every movement positive torture. My feet swelled a goou deal, and there was puffiness under the eyes, and I always felt dull and tired. So much for my suffering, now for the medicine that cured me. After trying all sorts of remedies without deriving my real benefit, I heard good reports of Doans’ Backache, Kidney Pills, so sent for a bottle' at once. I took them regularly, carefully following the directions, and I soon noticed an improvement in my health, and a course of the Pills cured mo completely. Three years have elapsed since then, and I am still well, so my cure has been thoroughly tested.” Mrs Fanselow confirms the above four years later, and says: —“My husband has hail no trouble with his kidneys since Doan’s Backache Kidney ] ills cured him i seven years ago.” Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills are sold by all chemists and storekeepers at 3s per bottle (six bottles 16s 6d) or will be posted on receipt of price by Foster-McClellan Go., 76 Pitt Street, Sydney.
