Most of the on sense of humourl farces filmed have been photograph- jed stage plays, but they have justi- fed the method in the resultant success in practically all cases.
"Rookery Nook" set the fashion film farces, and Ralph Lynn immediately became, in film slang, "box-office draw." His latest production, "The Chance of a Night- Time," directed by Ralph Lynn and Herbert Wilcox, is drawing crowded houses to the King's Theatre, and

QUININE IS NOT ENOUGH
Though quinine is essential in the treatment of Malaria, Genasprin is of wonderful benefit in relleving the palne in your muscles and joints. Gennsprin, the absolutely pure and therefore safe brand of aspirin, soothes the nerves, induces deep restful sleep and so helps to reduce the temperature. Genasprin and quinine may be taken with perfect safety at the same time.
Temperature Gone in 2 Hours. A frequent victim of
Malaria writes:
"In cases of Malaria I tako 10 grains of Genasprin (2 tablets) followed 10 minutes later by 10 grains of quiuine. I then soon begin to perspire having, of course, gone to bed under plenty of blankets- and in a couple of hours my temperature has gone and there is no need to continue the Genesprin. Plain quinine by itself is not effective and only results in a severe headache. The Genesprin net only excites a healthy perspiration, but also banishes the ill-effects of quinino headache, deaf- neza, dizziness and weakness,"
