COLONIAL THEATRE.
Two Matinees Today-CIara kimbaIl
 Young in Marrying Money.

One of the World Film corporations s most beautiful and famous beauties will occupy the screen at the Colonial theatre today, when Marrying Money, L superb comedy-dram in five reels, will be presented. Miss Young is one of the very few screen stars who can turn from the serious sides of her work and immediately take upon herself the e nnedy parts so difficult to maintain and present in a pleasing form. This Is necessary in the delightful story of h summer filtration at a very fashion able summer hotel, for it is here that Mildred Niles meets Ted Vanderveer, each believing the other to be wealthy The story keep on building up thor cughly humorous situation in which the couple elope, followed by the most Ant:quated of automobiles. After an expensive honeymoon, they discover that their combined resources are in sufficient to meet the hotel bill and are unable to leave until Vanderveer re- .eive5 an unexpected fortune. The closing scene, showing the happy couple in an automobile drawn across railroad track and blocking a train, Is capital. A more fortunate combina- .:on of story, star and production is seldom met with in a feature offering. siiss Young makes Mildred young woman of charm and courage, and, what is more unusual, in photoplays, elesses her with an obvious sense of aunnor. Each and every reel closes with ludicrous situation similar to hose seen upon the stage and keeps .he audiences in a high state of hilar- !ty until the great big climax men .ioned before. The scenery in this production is without par in a film If this kind ana must be seen to be appreciated.

It was so different hat it startled them at first, but they ,aid tribute to it's originality, and as consequence Nobody Home remained New York for almost a year, and hree months in Boston. Nothing quite Ike 1t has ever been seen before, and is as full of surprise and laughter IS a well seasoned melon. There is omething wrong with the man or Eoman who cannot enjoy Nobody Tome: at least. that is what the critics ay. Watch The Bulletin for seat sale announcement
