EVERYBODY'S.
AMUSEMENTS. Pride of place in the new programme at Everybody'*? to-night is given to a Famous Players' production featuring Pauline Frederick, under the title of "Sold." This latest feature is said to teach a strong moral lesson. The play has its stormy and perfervid passages, which are not wholly eliminated from the picture, but as is usual in kinema adaptations of plays, a good deal of the risky matter in "Sold" is missing from the screen version. The supporting pictures are good, and include a side-splitting comedy "The Mishaps of Musty Puffer."
THREE STARS. "The Eternal Triangle," a woman and two men, forms the basis of "The Law Decides," the Vita graph Blue Ribbon drama now showing at the Three' Stars. " Dorothy Kelly, as the young wife who falls a victim to the joint schemes of a reckless lover and an unscrupulous old woman, is bewitching, and little Bobby Connolly, whose small grubby Hands eventually pro\>,»the a binding- links between the divorced couple, is a perfect small boy—that is to say a combination of imp and cherub. The drama can'confidently be said to be the best divorce problem play screened for some time, and the whole setting is unique and altogether lovely.—" Bobby, I have to fix things so as Father and Mother can live in different houses!" This is the Judge's attempt to explain things to the boy in "The Law Decides." Also the sixth episode of the "Black Box" will be shown.
