OFFER GEAR JOB IN MOTION PICTURES.

It has rema-nci TOT an American pic- tufe company to find the logical em- ployment for the former Russian Car, with good pay and plenty of work in the open air. Having learned that he had made good a snow shoveller, the Thanhouser Film Corporation felt that he should be given chance to show his worth as a screen star Eventually they considered he might develop the ability to be foreman of section gang. So they cabled this generous proposi- tion to Premier Lvoff of the provision al government at Pctrograd:
 Could you spare Czar to do one fea- ture picture showing progress revolu- tionary movement? Salary s5.000 week. to be devoted to your cause. Four weeks guaranteed"
 All the czar would have had to do would have been to register the feel ings of a ruler who was being dispos- sessed, :, which would have been easy. considering the practice he's had But the picture company says:

BLANCHE SWEET COMETS TO THE DREAM.

In all of her previous Lasky produc- tions Blanche Sweet has had husbands
 thrust upon her. She has been pur- sued by hundreds of admirers and had
 many at her feet, but in her forthcom- ing production, 'The Thousand Dollar Husband" which opens at the Dream with the matinee tomorrow. she buys q husband and strange it may seem, the purchase does not welcome the
 sale. In this production. Miss Sweet is first seen a Swedish maid of all
 work in a college boarding house. She is madly in love with one of the stu dents and when she suddenly becomes
 wealthy and the young man faces ruin, she offers to pay his debts if he will marry her. How the wealthy bride of the Ioveless marriage is set upon by q band of crooks and how she is even tually saved and wins the love of her husband goes to make one of the most unusual photo dramas ever presented. The Jesse L. Lasky Company has surrounded Miss Sweet with a cast of unusual excellence including Theodore Roberts, Tom Forman, Jane Wolff. Hor- ace B. Carpenter, Lucille LaVerny and others.
 Col. Heeza Liar will also be an add ed attraction.

MIME. PETROVA COMES TO COLISEUM TOMORROW.

Wonderful Mime. Petrova, whose marvellous powers of pantomime and emotional expression have so often thrilled and delighted Metro audiences again makes her bow from the screen this time in a veritabie photoplay maa- terpiece, "The Scarlet Woman" which opens at the Coliseum tomorrow night Rarely, if ever. has this gifted artiste found vehicle so well suited to her distinctive charms and supreme dra- matic gifts as this latest product.
