HIBBARD TO PLAY In “The Belle of Richmond" Mrs. Hibbard will be. cast in, the most | pleasing comeédy role in which she has | appeared this season at the Lyceum. She will assume the role of a Boston woman who has social and matri- monial ambitions. In her own home and to add to eccentricity she sees fit to have a different wig for vary. ing occasions. Her collection is ve! ‘complete and in the action she wears | several different hues of hair. There is a wealth of comedy in her line: Those who have followed Mrs. Hib- bard’s acting are inclined to the feel- ing that it is in comedy that she is at her best. “The Belle of Richmond” tells a | thrilling story of high society of | Virginia's principal city. Melodra- matic situations ‘are cleverly con- structed and there are incidents which appeal .to the emotions., The heart interest is very strong. Miss Hutch- jins, who will a belle, is loved and admired by young southerners with all the depth | { and impetuosity of affection. There is refinement to the melodrama which Mr. Toller has written in this play. “Mams’elle” will be repeated this evening by the Lyceum Players. So pleased are many of the regular thea- ter-goers with this week’s bill that they have béen present at more than one performance. ACROBATIC NUMBER GREAT AT KFENEY'S Presenting a -neat ‘sister” act, Mond and $alle, a pair of exception- ally clever impersonators find great favor with the audiences at Keeney's where they are appearing this week as one of the stellar attractions. The young men are splendidly made up, have pleasing soprano voices and ‘show signs of effeminacy in their every movement. They look very stylish and are applauded as a ‘“palt of classy chickens" when they make their initial bow at every perform. ance. They carry out the deception in clever fashion to the end and it is not until they remove their wigs that the audience gets wise. It is a big shock when they remove their wigs and the “Johnnies” in the front row who have been carrying on a flirtation ! with them hide their heads as they start for the exit. b Tin\man and Tinsman, the original | bumpty bump artists, offer one of the .hest acrobatic numbers seen at the theater this season.

Girls Should Have at Least Four White Skirts for Morning Evening Gowns Must Be Light and Not Left Overs from Last Year—Shoes Should Be Buckskin or Ten- nis and Stockings Should Be White. The answer to what a girl needs for summer lies in her choice of a place at which to spend the season. If she is planning to be at some fashionable hotel for four or five weeks, she naturally needs more than if she is planning to visit at some mountain camp. At a hotel where one is constantly in evidence on the verandas, in cor- ridors, or on the golf links or putting green, clothes must be trim and im- maculate to suit the critical and ob- servant eve. ‘White Skirts for Morning Wear. For the morning there should be at least four white skirts of cordu- roy, ribbed pique, or linen, and the simpler in style they are the smarter. One, at least, should be cut decidedly short for tramping. Six white blouses to accompany the skirts are none too many. These can be of firm, soft silk, of crepe, or of sheer handker- chief linen, with self-material col- lars. At least two one-piece dresses of linen or cotton crepe should be in- cluded, while two afternoon frocks of batiste, organdie or fine linen, with handwork as trimming, are almost a necessity. Some well dressed girls prefer to have all their dresses white and for variety use color in the walst- coat, trimming on the coat, the hat ing hats, built on simple lines, such as a Panama and one of some rough straw for traveling. For semi-dress the wardrobe should contain a small picturesque leghorn with roses and ribbon, and for wear with a lingerie creation a filmy hat of lace net with pale knots of picot ribbon and tiny vld-time flowers. With this costume should be included a quaint flowered parasol. two decided Evening gowns with requisites are a necessity. not be long and they must be light, fresh gowns, not left-overs from last winter’s gaveties.

With these should be worn heavy white ribbed plain white silk stockings. A pair of white colonial pumps for pers for dancing should not be over- looked. The average girl should re- quire at least two negligees, a sim- ple one for the bath, and another of crepe de chine and lace for more for- mal wear. Two dainty pairs of bou- doir slippers and becoming boudoir caps should not be forgotten in plan- ‘| ning the negligee part of the sum- mer wardrobe. - Hats Should Match.

By special request Master Conroy, New Britain's sweetest singer, will appear in all new sougs. MASTER CONROY TO SING AT FOX'S My, wasn't it hot yesterday? one knows it was, but the coolest spot in town was at the Fox theater. It was so cold that each and everyone who attended the theater caught cold, and everyone saia it was the coolest spot in town, and that's going some. La France and Brennan, the dancers from the Winter Garden, are exhibit- ing each night the latest dances and are acknowledged by the press and the public to be the best dancers that ever appeared in the city. On Fri- day afternoon there will be a special matinee for the female sex. Now, ladies, here's your chance to learn how to properly dance the latest dances. Instructions absolutely free. On this day the special features will | be backed up by a picture show that is very seldom seen in these parts. The show is today headed by the two- Every- WINS BALDWIN PRIZE.

Dear little letter friend, isn’t any good in you. the opposite. There's such an aching void, you say, between the girl you are and the girl you want to be. Little letter friend, let me tell you something. So long as that vold aches you're all right. It's when it stops aching that you will have reason to be displeased at yourself The pangs we feel at our failure to fulfill our ideals are the growing pains of the soul. They are not a sign of disease, but of health. The sick soul is the self-satisfied soul. Except for a saint, there must always be a void between the reality and the ideal of conduct. In the morning we face the day with shining morning face and high courage. We are sure we are going to be kind and tactful in our speech; we are going to control that hasty temper; we are going to overcome that turbulent desire to have our own way in every- thing, and sacrifice ourselves and our will some of the time; we are going to drive out ugly thoughts of hate and envy and jealousy from our mind; we are not going to fritter away time as we usually do, but make the most of every precious moment and really accomplish something. A few moments later,—surely it was no more than that,—we find the day has slipped away. It is night, the record is written, and such a different record from the one we planned! Not seven times, but seventy times seven, have we slipped down from our ideal. How could we have done it, we wonder, What is it that makes us so much worse than other folks? Courage, comrades, we're not worse than other folks, at least not so long as we try, and care when we fail. Perhaps we have more to struggle with than others; who knows? The only real failure is to stop caring and trying. 1 sald it was only the saints who did not have reason to feel the aching vold. I need not have excepted any human being. ‘Could you find a better description of the aching void between real and'ideal than St. Paul's intensely human cry, “For the good that I would I do not; but the evil which I would not, that I do.” Don’t worry, little letter friend, we're all with you and St. Paul, and the only thing that ever need utterly discourage you or any of us is to find that the void no longer aches.
