Dear Madam: : As I wrote you on my second post card, you have been such a consistent patron of this theatre in the past that I feel it my duty to apprise you of the very important proSduction which is coming to us on ........... OTE ces week, entitled “The World for Sale,” by Sir Gilbert Parker.
. Not only is the title striking and unusual, but the story itself 1s unusual and in every way worthy of your special attention. Conway Tearle, who will be remembered for his excellent work with Sir Charles Wyndham, Ellen Terry, Bille Burke, Ethel Barrymore, Grace George, Wm. Faversham, Viola Allen and Emily Stevens—especially his last work with Miss Stevens in “The Fugitive,’—takes the part of a strong character in a _tale of two rival cities in Canada.

“The World for Sale,” as is the case with many of Sir Gilbert Parker’s immortal stories, is laid in the gripping Northwestern country that lends itself so admirably to
scenic beauty and virility of the characters which portray the living types of the country of Strathcona and the Hudson Bay pioneers.
Commodore J. Stuart Blackton’s efforts to do justice to this story surpass in intensity and execution his masterpiece which you well remember in “THE BATTLE CRY OF PEACE,” and taking it, all in all, you may be assured that the story of the girl, who is beautiful—naturally—and is beloved by three men, will grip you from start to finish.
, Come and see this splendid picture and then let me know your comments on it. I shall be interested to have your opinion. Will you do this for me personally?
: Yours for the BEST pictures,
Sie ee eee Theatre, Manager.
