Ye:trs ago, there was a French novel good parents didn't allow their daughters to read and respectable folks wrapped brown paper round its cover. It was " MANON LESCAUT." But to-day our outlook on life is broader and saner, and the astounding novel by the Abbe Prevost has been made into a marvellous picture. MANON LESCAUT was the subject of Massenet's Great Opera, " MANON." and a. remarkable score will be played by the Regent's Famous Operatic Orchestra, with Maurice Guttridge. M ANON WAS THE WORST WOMAN IN PARIS, and yet she was THE MOST LOVED IN PARIS. Ho was without a single wordlv desire. The Church called him, and ho was giving up his life to it, when— MANON LESCAUT CAME I MANON MEANT LOVE and everything that was worldly—everything that had previously been without meaning or appeal to him.

From that moment. Life meant only one thing—Manon Lescaut, and iJanon meant Love blind, unrestrained, overwhelming passion. BEAUTIFUL MANON —Fascinating Manon—lrresponsible Manon —Unfaithful Manor—Good Manon—Bad Manon—Simple Manon—Scheming Manon—was there ever such a Woman as She—a Creature of Oppositcs.
