Price, One Bottle.

The movie, or “cinema” as it is called there, has become an extraordinary social Influence in England. In the villages which have grown up around the “coal-pits,” in which many of the houses consist of only one room, and lack all the evidences of civilization, one can always be sure of finding a public house and a “cinema.” Some of the proprietors of these cinemas do not charge a coin for admission tn the case of children. Instead of money, the child presents a bottle, which is sold to the manufacturer of liquor, and afterward returned to the public house of the same village, to begin again its round to the parent of the child, to the movie, to the distillery and back tqthe saloon.—-Chris-tian Herald.
