It was good to hear ‘such praise from a Frenchwoman. It was good to hear Mme. Mallet ask the location of certain shops. “I want American goods and American styles,” she ex- plained. “I know that Paris has always been the ideal of things feminine,””- Mme. Mallet continued. “I am speaking of how you ‘Americans wear the clothes we French design. For always France must create and with her clothes are a fine art.

The ninth chapter of “The Goddess,” one of the | best motion picture serials ever pro- + duced, with Anita Stewart and Earle | Williams, was immensely enjoyed. There were also several single reel comedies that added variety to the excellent offering that promises some big things in the future. The management announces the coming of Ann Murdock, the.gifted ingenue, in “The Royal Family,” on Wednesday and Thursday, and the opening chapter of ‘“Neal of the Navy,” the new great American serial that is meeting with big success every- where.

It is hard to be a subser- vient butler and “put over” just a suspicion that you are something else, without giving the secret away en- tirely, but Mr. MacQuarrie proved to be the man for the part. It was | a personal triumph, which was well merited. There are enough thrills in ‘“The House of a Thousand Candles” to suf- fice for half a dozen ordinary plays. It is a mystery drama, pure and sim- ple, with the denouement coming at the end of the third act, leaving the last act to unravel the threads of the play and show the audience just how certain things came about, on the sup- position that the audience has nat enough intelligence to grasp the situa- tion anyway. The play would be just as well off without this last act, though it gives opportunity for some tender and some humorous love pas- sages, and also provides for the ulti- mate fate of the chief and assistant villains, always a pleasing thing to view. ctural cal hine Design ural Steel Card Writing pous Ald ish for Foreigners v ting Club smanship untancy lormation ‘can be se- ing at, writing, or tele- 5:.

ABORN OPERA CO. IN BALFE'S OPERA The big spectacular presentation of Balfe’s masterpiece “The Bohemian Girl,” announced for the Lyceum on next Thursday evening, is the same mammoth production with a few ad- ditions, that Aborn Opera company has presented in all the large cities of the United States and Canada for the past several seasons and which is credited with having been an im- mense success. By many this pro- duction is considered the crowning ef- fort of the career of the Messrs. Aborn as producers of Grand Opera in English.

You certainly think any of those voices are so beautiful as the violin solos.” And when her husband insists that that is just what he thinks, she glves an exasperated sigh. The Spirit of Persecution Still Lives, The horrors of thc Inguisition, the burning of heretics, even the treatment of the Puritans are almost incomprehensible to us nowadavs. We don't persecute people because they have differsnt religious view from ours any longer. And yet the spirit, the state of mind behind that persecution is by no means a thing of the past in many of us We still want people to think as we do even in minor matters of taste, and though we do not torturc them because they differ, we still persecute them with our protests, our arguments and our exasperated wonder at their persistent unwillingness to be exactly like us. The weman who is exasperated because her husband persists in lik- ing vocal music records is one example of this state of mind. He Will Prefer Tennyson.
