EVERYBODY'S.

LAST NIOIIT OF CLARA K. YOUNG AND "THE VERDUN BATTLE" " PICTURE.

This latest appearance of Clara Kimball Young does more than enhance her already splendid reputation. In the wedding scene which has become so famous, she reaches the pinnacle of the expression of terrific emotion. Into the crowd of guests assembled in the fashionable church she rushes, overwrought and distracted. "I am no Countess!" she says. "I am only a shopgirl." What the confession is costing her can be seen from the tense and dreadful stress under which she is so evidently laboring. Clara Kimba'.l Young's beauty is seen to more advantage in this film than in any of her previous appearances. This is partly due to the gorgeous array of dresses. First as a mannequin in the shop of a fashionable modiste, then as the pseudo Countess, siie wears gowns which arc the essence of originalitv, and which are all strikingly beautiful. This remarkably successful programme has been screened to crowded houses and with the "Defence of Verdun" will be finally screened tonight. TO-MORROW.

Another big "double" programme will be introduced, (lie first big feature being a Blue Ribbon Vitagraph, "The Chattel," starring 'Peggy ITvland, and the second a Moss-Frohman Art drama, "The Adventurer," from the famous novel by Upton Sinclair.
