THE PICTURE HOUSES.

EVERYBODY'S. It is seldom that two super featuits are included m the one programme, but such is the case at Everybody's tu-inght when the outstanding feature will, be Snowy Baker m 'The Lure U the Bush" and tlie great Naziomva m "Kye for Eye." .Always a favorite m the athletic arena, "Snowy" Baker, the well-known Australian strong man, proves himself as* 'meritorious iii the drainage world as uli aid m tho wond-ul snoi-t. -Suj^orttu oy that talcnttcl actress- and ' horsewomain," ii-e&s, and by a 'strong 'c^muiuat.ou, ao is ieatured m the exciung fl^ih -Tht Lure oi the Bush." The ueveiopment from tiie raw "•cowpun.clw.-r" io the conquering ui'ucstrian and athlete is we'll^ wui-kui uai, a,nd romance is cleverly interwoven with a series; of, thrilling niciueiits. Tne suiging and "editing" of the mm was IJiactd. m the hands of . experts, and they udve been most, successlui. Naziomva 1 j career has been a series of continuous aud tremendous sliccesfccs which have piaced her at the top of tho ladder of dramatic and screen fame,, ln "Eye for N Eye," which is perhaps her greatest achievement and m wh.ch she plays the part of llassouna, a 'beautiful and fiery Arabian girl, she has added new laurels iv her wreath 'of fame. The desert scenes are perfect — tlie colored pictures of laugier, m Morocco, are faithful replicas ..I the wonderlul old town— the , building ol ihis set being one of the biggest undertak.ngs since "Intuicrance." The scenes m aiid about the circus are also perfect, aad the beautiful interiors aie works oi art. Special Oriental music has been arranged for this picture by Mr W. Whitley, conductor of Everybody's Orchestra. PivUiminary to "The; Lure, tf the Bush,'": .; short imerest picture "Evolution," wili jj screened. TaE PALME ■ A picture of thrills and sensations, •Tha Law of the ' North," the latest -./"arajnount photoplay, will be s.hown at tlie Palace -'Theatre* 10-n:gm. X presents the star, Charles Ray, m a decidedly, new rolp. He is seen as a strong, healthy trapper of the Canadian wilds. The background of :c*i and snow is a wonderful conti'iast to the strong dramatic story. '•- Charles Ray does some of the best work .In ,-hls screen career m :thls picture, which was produced under the personal , supervision of Tlios. H. Ince. Ray appears as Alain De Montcalm, .the son of - the Commandant of a trading post m the Far North, amid the eternal snows, j His father is slain by a subordinate, who ' abducts Alain's' sister. Alain goes In pur- 1 suit, and the, girl is wounded, when she' struggles with her abductor, for the possession Of at. revolver, Alain continues his pursuit of Le Noir, the assassin, but r<?aches his quarry only after the murderer has been torn to pieces by wolves, ' the animals unwittingly avenging Alain's murdered father. Some of the most intense and blood-curdling experiences ever known In the snowbound wilds Of Arctic Canada : are reproduced Yin this-magnifi-cently-staged 1 drama. The terrible battle on the paUisades of the trading post: the sight of the scoundrel's dog team pursued by a pack of wolves, is said to he'; most realistic. He is compelled, to slaughter his team one by one . m the 'effort to save /ihis own miserable life. The supporting films are-a Mack Sennett comedy, "Cupid's Day" and Gazettes.
