ENTERTAIN HI ENTS.

GAIETY THEATRE PICTURES. to-night. SOFT BOILED.” I There anay be nothing new under the sun, but Tom Mix behind hornrim spectacles, wearing the latest garb from the shelf of a second-hand store, is a close approach to. it. He appeals in “Soft Boiled,” his first special release, presented by William Fox, in a role so different from any he has attempted that he surprised even himself. In "Soft Boiled,” which will be shown to-night, Tony, Tom’s wonder horse, plays his usual prominent. part with his usual intelligence, despite the fact that he found his master scarcely recognisable in many of the scenes. Expecting coarse chaps, soft shirt, spurs and sombrero, Tony encountered Tom Mix in checked “city clothes” arid spats. It may have been indignation or surprise that caused Tony to rear viciously when he glimpsed this, but it was equine intelligence that brought a hoarse horse whinney when he saw the horn-rim-med goggles. . . Also an absorbing new serial, entitled “Fighting Blood,” will commence. This picture rivals the “Leather Pushers.” SATURDAY NIGHT. " HER NIGHT OF ROMANCE.” Constance Talmadge.’s latest First National comedy, “Her Night of Romance,” is the funniest she ever made. Accept that statement as, the belief of Sidney Franklin, who directed it. The story was written by Hans Kraly, noted European screen writer, and shows Constance in a love tangle with an English lord as a result of her efforts to dodge fortune-hunters. Ronald Colman, a yourig British actor, is Constance’s leading-man in this picture, which will be the principal attraction to be shown to-morrow night.
