HAYWARD'S PICTURES.

''WHEN LOVE W-AS BLIND.V

';' "When Love was Blind." a powerful Pathe Gold 'Rooster- play, is being screened at Hay ward's Pictures. Florence La Badie is tho star, and she is wonderfully dainty, and acts with great appeal in the emotional scenes of the play. She portrays a girl who goes blind and contracts an alliance with a young artist, whom she loves. She es,'pects, of course, that lie will marry her, and trusts him completely. Then her sight'is restored, and the first tiling she sees is her lover apparently embracing one of the servants. Heartbroken, she goes away, and it is not until many dark days have passed that her lover and she are united. The scenes of art Lstic Bohemian' life are faithfully pictured, and the setting is lavish in the extreme. The last scene is exceedingly dramatic, the heroine's dreadful fear proving to be absolutely without foundation.
