NOTICE.

The Strand wishes to contradict the notice which apeared in the papers few days ago, about the theatres raising the prices soon. We admit that the op- orators and musicians have received an increase in salary. but that does not warrant a raise in prices of admission. We hope the party that put that article In the papers will speak for himself hereafter. The Strand has not in- creased the prices. but they have In creased the show from three to six acts. changing twice weekly also the best of feature pictures. The Strand believes in giving full value for your money. Re member the Strand is the first to star: vaudeville both seasons regardless of eN- pense or competition. Prices remain tise same,
