The greatest funmaker on the mov- ing picture screen in Charles Chap-\ lin. He has made millions laugh and in “The Jitney Elopement,” in which he will be seen at the Lyceum on Sun- day evening, he is at his best, Chap- lin is pictured in a two-reel succe: sion of comedy 'adventures in the new vehicle of American transpartation and his experiences keep up a con- tinuous roar of laughter throughout. This is a picture held for first dis- play on Sunday and its production at the Lyceum demonstrates thee type of pictures which the management is offering. Another illustration of this point of quality “is the first public showing of Francis Bushman's finest picture in “The Accounting.” This three part play affords fine oppor- tunity for witnessing this popular ro- mantic acting star in a most attrac- tive picture-drama. The Lyceum qual- ity is also indicated by the Vitagraph picturesque feature entitled “When s0 on Monday eve- ; Dressmaker Says That Marquisette, That Filmy Fabric, Is Practical Models in Lemon and Watermelon are Perfectly Adapt- able for Late Morning Good for Since a very great couturier has sured us that marquisette 1s extreme- Iy practical, that filmy fabric, closely kin to chiffon leaped into favor for wear during the hours of the Although much like chiffon, much stronger in texture that it real- M morning in appearance, has iy day. y does muke a practicar trock. 3 Perfectly adapted for wear of a late spring morning is a marquisette model in the hues of lemon and watermelon, fivits now out of put whose season, shades are always adorable.
