Au- diences present at performances dur ing the week have been very compli mentary in their references to effect; produced in the first act. The scene | represents a street in Denver, Colo. | A storm develops suddenly and out of the incident grows the action of this very clever comedy. There 1s| a wealth of farcical fun in the lines | |and the story is very interesting. The | cast this week brings out Miss Brow- | nell, who made many friends in her short stay here a few weeks previous. | The attraction nest week will be “The Ninety and Nine.” This play will afford a fine opportunity for Miss Skirvin. She will present the char- acter of a young woman who is aid- ing in bringing about the redemption of a young man who nearly goes aground in a fit of despondency. The raising of him up is the element which appeals so strongly and makes for this play its big success. The jaction transpires in the Hoosier state jand the characters are principally of plain, simple folks of the country. One of the big elements in the popularity of “The Ninety and Nine’" is the spec- | tacular effect produced by depicting a | race through a raging forest or prairie fite by the hero running a locomo- tive. DANCING PLEASES AT KEENEY'S THEATER None of the acts at Keeney’'s this week give as much genuine pleasure as the novel dancing specialties in which the Dancing Smiths and Lor- raine and Lorraine are introduced. Contrasting strongly with each other j these acts demonstrate the two most i popular types of terpsichorean effort; | the Texas Tommy and other num- | bers almost acrobatic in character | as presented by the Smiths, and the maxixe, tango, hesitation and similar ball room favorites. Both acts are artistic and the performers show con- | siderable grace in going through the | intricate variations of each num- ber. Lovers of dancing should not miss thesec acts, They are instructive as well as entertaining. Cleverness of an unusual degree is | exhibited by the Two Franks, a pair of acrobatic wonders, who are first on ‘the bill. Their work is remark- ably clever and the originality dis- played in every trick gets them addi- tional praise. Their act is excep- tionally well staged and the setting used is quite attractive. Paul Folrius, the xylophone king, has to respond with encores at every performance. Paul gives a concert that is most pleasing and the audi- ence applauds him liberally. His play- ing of “Dancing Around” and other rags as well as classical pieces shows his versatility and his mastery of the instrument which he uses. Mabel Carew, singing comedienne, entertains with humorous selections and also gives a recitation that flnds favor. Bert Swan and his alligators provide the headliner. FEARFUL HUMOR COVERED FACE- RESINOL GURED Paterson, N. J., Dec. 9, 1913: “Abous a year ago my face began to crack and get scaly in blotches. It soon gob ‘worse and my face was all spotted and | rough, and it itched me very much at night, and caused me no end of discom- fort. After a month or 8o, pimples and blackheads began to show, first in small numbers and &hen gradually covering my entire face. It was awful. The pimples were sore and the rash was itchy and my face had a most um- s:g.htly appearance. I could get mno relief. Resinol Soap and Resinol Oint- ment caused me instant relief. By the time another jar of Resinol Ointment and cake of Resinol Soap were gone, I can truthfully say that it was a com- plete cure. My face had assumed its former color and looks, due to Resinol Soap and Resinol Ointment. They are, T think, the best for any skin trouble.” (Signed) Robert Troyano, 269 E. 2ist Street.

Any man who has a fear that one of these women who are claiming man’s prerogatives will claim. another and propose to him can dismiss the fear and cheer up. The feminists aren’t going to pop the question, not, at least, the feminists who follow Mrs. Charlotte Perkins Gilman. In her lec- ture at the Hotel Astor, New York, ‘Wednesday, the fifth in her course on “Masculism,” Mrs, Gilman declared that the new woman would not pro- pose. “It is eternally unnecessary for woman to propose marriage,” she said. “She can manage it without that. The woman of today is not lacking in her sex's prerogative of passive attraction, and the woman ol the future isn’'t likely to lose it.” But as women get better and wiser, the lecturer satd discriminate more and more in exer- cising that passive attraction. There will be a large crop of bachelors, un- less men improve. “As soon as We women wake up to our real duty as mothers,” she ob- served, “we Wwill consider whether 2 man is fit to be a father, and reject him if he isn’t up to the mark. We aren’t going to accept the damaged goods that women too often take in the marriage market now. There will they are going to | be more celibates then, but there will ! be a finer race of men.” In her answer to one of the ques- | tions put after the lecture, Mrs, Gil- { man registered her disapproval of the advanced feminists who argue a woms jan’s right to be a mother without | marriage. j “I wonder,” she said, “if there are ! any children of such arrangements { 0ld enough to say what they think {about it. Women who argue for this | thing don’t think of the child’s right {to a father. But in a great move- { ment like that of the women today ! there are always sure to be some who are foolish.” ‘When economic conditions improve, Mrs. Gilman added, every woman can | have children, and a husband, too, for there are enough men to g0 around. At this point there was a lively discussion with a woman who maintained that women cared more about husbands than children. Mrs. Gilman said they didn’t. | “The mothefinstinct puts it all over | the little god with wings,” she de- | clared. k { Mrs. Gilman's subject was “The In- | fluence of Our Male Civilization on Education, Art, Literature,” and be- fore marriage took the floor she saig ‘many things about the futility of the “art for art's sake” school. DAUGHTERS OF 1812 PROPOSE MEMORIAL Delegates at Associate Council Desire Star Spangled Banner Mcmento i Presented to Nation. New Haven, Conn., May 1.—A Star $pangled Banner memorial to be es- tablished by the Daughters of 1812 and presented to the nation when the Maryland chapter observed the cen- tennial of the writing of the patriotic hymn next September, was proposed .in resolutions offered to the associate council in national session, here yes terday, Mrs. R, L, Whitney of Detroit, | offered the resolution which is based upon the announcement made that the New York chapter will agsume the ob- | ligations: of the Daughters to con- tribute $10,000 for a room in the pro- posed George Washington Memorial building in Washington, D. C., leaving the daughters free to divert to other purposes the contributions already made by state chapters to the memor- ial room. Mrs. Whitney in her resolutions provided that before funds already contributed to the George Washing- ton memorial are diverted to the pro- posed Star Spangled Banner memo- rial the consent of contributors shall be obtained. Mrs. Whitney %aid, in | support of the resolution, that the Daughters’ fund for the room has| grown slowly, in fact contributions to date total only $510 from eight states. The Banner memorial would cost| $800 and the balance after diverting the $510 which would be on hand by reason of the offer of the New York i chapter could be secured by a fifty cent per capita tax on members in states which have not already con- tributed to the room fund.

Don’t forget to close the refrigerator door each time you use the box; the ice will last much longer. Oysters chopped and served in the gravy of a particularly juicy por- terhouse steak are very delicious. The bone should be left in a roast: it will help to keep the juice in and will add flavor and sweetness. Damp salt is an excellent thing to remove .stains on cups and saucers caused by tea and careless washing. Always take off the draughts of the kitchen range as soon as you have finished a meal, thereby saving fuel. ‘When choosing potatoes take those of medium size, free from blemishes and of a yellowish white color.

If you find some one who isn’'t proud of the things take pride in, he is probably proud of the opposite, And this inverted pride is often more intense than the ordinary ety. A friend of mine has no patience whatever with the people who always boasting about their aristocratic ancestors. “I frankly edge that my ancestors were men of the so0il,”” she likes to say. wasn't an aristocrat among them.” I know she thinks she is splendidly free from pride on the subject of ancestry. But she isn’t. For she boasts of her plebeian origin just as fre- quently and with just as much pride as her aristocratic neighbors, and rather more aggressively than they Again, I know a woman who looks scornfully down upon of pride that exults in wealthy friends. Toadying is to her one of the seven deadly sins. She would scorn to make friends with anyone be- cause he was wealthy; and so she goes to the opposite extreme and is ac- tually rude and disagreeable when she is brought into contact with any person of wealth. And of course she is proud as Punch of her rudeness. Incidentally she is proving just what she denies, namely, that wealth is of great consequence to her. If it were not, why should she set apart these people from the rest of her acquaintanges by her manner of treate ing them. If wealth did not really matter to her she would reject or accept them on their own merit just as she does her other friends. Another form of inverted pride is that of the person who hates flate tery and rushes to the opposite extreme of unnecessary and often offen- sive frankness. I know a man of this sort who goes about making rude and uncalled for comments on his friends’ appearance, clothes, conduct, etc. Needless to say, he is as proud of his rudeness as any flatterer ever could be of his diplomacy. When he says I never flatter,” pride sticks out all over him. I believe it was Plato to whom Diogenes boasted that he was absolute- ly free from any kind of pride. “No,” answered Plato, “you're proud of your own humility.” ‘We all seem to need to believe ourselves superior in some direction. Pride of one sort or another is as necessary 'to our self respect as air to our lungs. Let it, then, be of the right sort. Your conduct is influenced by your pride. Be careful what you are proud of; be sure it's something worth being proud of, and not a mere rebound from something unworthy to something else equally unworthy.
