crowd of men about the steps is
shown, and it is with this picturetoue
setting that the hero and heroine meet
under the strangest circumstances.
When the village gossip learns that
her neighbor expects two guests from
the city on a special train she calls
on the pretext of borrowing a chili
sauce recipe, but when it is hurriedly
copied and handed her she seems tj
'be in no hurry and sorenely sits upon
tho chair which the mother and
daughter desire to dust and prepares
to wait their arrival.
These old customs have been pre
sented at just the right time and
one feels that they acid much lotiii
color and atmosphere to the storjr.

"The Ninety and Nine," the well
known stage play by Ramsey Morris
which the Vitagraph Company of
America has filmed as a five-part
Blue Ribbon Feature with William
Courtenay and Lucille Lee Stewart
under tho direction of Ralph W. Ince,
is the attraction at tho Sherry theatre.
Last showing tonight.
This human interest drama cont .ins
many small village customs which ai
sure to create a bit of humor in every
audionce. The proverbial village gos
sip interested in everyone's business
but her own is cleverly portrayed and
ono actually feels that her presence
stands before them.

The Broadway success, "'Bought
and Paid For," has been converted
into u mammoth motion picture fea-

Made. The popular little actress,
Alice Biady, has been entrusted with
the star part and has built up a char
acter which will not easily be forgot
ten. Although the main plot of the
story is a very serious one, the com
edy vein which runs throughout is a
I big and exceedingly humorous one.
The situations which arise are all
true to life and might occur in your
own family. For instance:
