ENTERTAINMENTS.

ROYAL PICTURES. A flash of fiery defiance herea rouguish taunting siiiile there; a play of swiftly changing moods, always volatile and ileeting—a tempering of wit with dramatic fire. That’s Constance Talmadge in the First National picture, “The Dangerous Maid,” which is to be shown a! the Royal Theatrj to-night. In this picture Miss Talmadge essays her first big dramatic role and those who see it will wonder why she has never played in the more serious type roles hoore. Make a point of seeing it to-night. Extra “Beasts of Paradise.”

On Monday night Alice Lake and Owen Moore will appear in “Modern Matrimony.” It is a story of many comical situations and a picture you should see. Don’t get married until you have seen “Modem Matrimony.” Usual prices. On Tuesday and Wednesday evenings Mary Pickford will be .seen in “Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall.” The most thrilling jfiece of horsemanship filmed in a long time is credited to Mary Pickford in this production. Every lady in the dress circle on Wednesday night will receive a “Dorothy Vernon Souvenir.” See that you get one, yon will treasure it. “THE CIRCUS COWBOY.” Charles (Buck) Jones goes back to circus days at the Town Hall tonight in “The Circus Cowboy,” his latest dramatic success. The story is that of a cowboy who accused of shooting a man, outrides, outwits, and outdares his pursuers and succeeds in joining up with a travelling circus. There he becomes further involved in trouble and a breath of romance in the form of a pretty tight-rope, walker. To reveal the rest of the' story would spoil the patrons’ enjoyment. A 1 St. John comedy, “Be Yourself,” and the latest World’s News. Prices 9d and 1/6 children 3d and fid. On Monday evening Colleen Moore and Kenneth Harlan’s delightful Irish fighting story, “April Showers,” will head an interesting programme,' which also includes “Roll Along,” comedy and the latest P.athe Gazette Prices as usual.
