varied manufacturing enterprises, is
reached over four main lines OF trafhc,
viz, Kcnsiugton avenue. Franktord

DOROTHY DALTON AT PALACE,.

Corinne Melrose, beautiful and &C., com plished, but unfortunate enough to be stranded in small town, when her show goes on the rocks, put her beauty and wit to 9 good account re- gently, when she succeeded in en- tangling Deacon Simpson so that he was forced to act like white man in regard to his mortgage on the little home of Aunt Tiny Colvin.
 This incident forms the central idea of the story of Dorothy Dalton's new Paramount picture, Hard Boiled" which is seen at the Palace theater tonight and Saturday. This picture was directed by Victor L. Schertzinger under the supervision of Thomas 1T. Ince.
 Miss Dalton, as the prinla donna, does some of the finest acting of her career. She is ably supported by a fine cast including Smiling Billy Mason as leading man.
 The country town types are well presented and the manner in which the clever girl outwits the shrewd and rascally old deacon will prove highly edifying to the public.
 AS an extra added attraction Fatty Arbuckle is seen in his newest com- edy, '"The Garage a new episode of lightning Bryce" with Ann Little and Jack Hoxie and The Palace News concludes the photoplay bill. The Keith vaudeville program consists of very clever acts and features '"The Lorimer Hudson Co.," trick and sen sationa1 bicycle riders. ''The Lilly Sisters offer a pleasing series of songs and dances with some good vio- lin playing. ",The Piccolo Midgets." three cute little fellows, hardly three feet tall, offer a clever novelty act that you will like.
