AMUSEMENTS.
POL LARD’S PICTURES. "THE DUST OK DESIRE,” WEDNESDAY. "'I lie Dust of Desire” is the story of a girl who paid the debt for scores of women. Does a wife’s past belong to her husband ? The beautiful star of ‘ The Auction Block” in a new role of poignant appeal to all men and women. She tried to tell her husband the‘grim and sordid life that unfeeling society had forced upon her —he refused to listen ; so they set sail upon the tranquil sea of happiness, until, from the past, rose *the black rucks of memory and the tempter —that rare man who understood women—an expert, in the art of love. Innocent and unwarned, she had yleldej to his subtle persistence. Now in the • world of convention created by men to guard their selfish selves; her ship of joy was in deadly danger—she paid the price of salvation —yet in paying gained a priceless gift—the gift of understanding.
