ROYAL PICTURES.
At the Royal 10-nigl/ (he programme screened last night: wd! he repeated. Next to a .morgue a hospital should be the most productive place to act a'eomedy, and surety no more comedy could proceed from any hospital than that in whieli Mabe; Xormand is an unwilling patient in “When ’Doctors Disagree." Even the title of the play is suggestive of comedy, and the realisation exceeds all expectations. Its basis is one of the most laughable situations conceived; its interpretation and pictorial aspects are flawless. Imagine Mabel being raced to a sanatorium for an operation prescribed by a bogus doctor, all on account of her having swallowed a toothache remedy. The remedy, by the way, was the oldfashioned one of a wad of tobacco. No one could do better justice to this than the inimitable Mabel; yet this is only one scene of many as good. Don’t miss this at the Royal tomorrow night.
