mircM ALEXANDRA AND PICTURES. "The keen interest Queen Alexandra Takes in the motion picture ib „ vi . deuced by the fact that there is n command performance at Marlborough House practically every week," pays a London writer. "Her Majesty has no special likes or dislikes in regard .to film stories. She is interested in them all, whether strong drama or stories of a lighter style. Eddie Polo's "stunts" have, in particular, caused her much wonderment, and she was interested in having explained to her exactly how every effect was obtained. Her Majesty suffers' from slight deafness, which makes it difficult for her to follow and enjoy the plot of a play on the stage. The screen offers her the opportunity of witnessing" the best ;plays and the best acting quietly in her own home without any of the difficulty attaching to a command stage, performance. The exhibitions given in this royal 'picture palace' are informal affairs, attended only by Queen Alexandra, members of the royal family, and officials and servants of the household. The pictures are projected on a screen set up in one of the larger rooms, and a pianist provides the impromptu accompaniment.
NO MATTER WHICH IT IS. "Whether it is a hard cold, a lingering cough or a : sudden attack of croup r there is nothing: equal to Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Experience has proved that this.is the best-medicine for coughs and'colds of any description. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy contains nothing injurious;, and can be giver, -with perfect safety to the youngmost delicate child. Sold everywhere.—Advt.--- ,
