Scullen’of the Grand theater hopes every lover of good clean musical comedy will take ad- vantage of today's opportunity to see Billy Arlingtton and Frank Dobson tn “The Golden Crook.” Next week’s attraction will be Rose Sydell and her famous “London Belles.” Johnnie Weber. plays the lead assisted by: Francis Cornell, direct from London masie halls. The famous “London Belles” was constructed for the sole purpose of making money for its owner, and the owner, realizing that to make money he must necessarily give the public a good show, has a burlesque that is said to be one of the best on the big circuit. The attrac- tion has proved a box office success, as well as a success from the patron’s viewpoint, The comfortably furnished porch al- ways has a table for magazines and papers, with. a good heavy paper ‘weight to keep the latter from blowing | away.

He gave the quick litfle start experience has taught me errand, intrusted to him, and flashed & rusful laok at me. “Gee! Mother, I forgot everything about it!"” he said. - “But what's the big idea of bringing it’from the city? I'll bet you can get it out here,, what- ever it 18, or what in the world you want it !o His mother crumpled him up with & look ‘before she made him any answer, “I' have ‘repeatedly explained to she said at last with caushing ty, “‘that these village xropefle- of keep rosewater.” y dor’t you try ‘stores?” Dicky interrupted. “I had ‘not-though of that,” his mother admitted. ‘Please up right'away and find out, If they have it, ask them to send some up at once.” ‘When Dicky came back from {the telephone and announced that the rosewater would be at our door pres- ently, he added curiously: “Why all the row about rosewater, Mother? Some rore of that dinner dope 7" “The manner in which you couch your question does ,not deserve an answer, Richard,” his - mother re- turned severely, “but I will tell you once more something which vou ought to know, that no other flavor but rosewater |is permissable in mince- meat.” “Glad to know it,” said Dicky flip- pantly. “I infer are going to have some old-fashioned- home-made fince pies for my blrthd-,y " “You are, my son,” his mother re- turned, beamln‘ “and pumpkin pies as well.” \ “That will be bu"y" Dicky re- joined enthusiastically, then quickly added loyally. “But they'll have to go some" if they’re better than the mince pie Madge made me out of a can the first week we kept house. ‘Member, Madge?” “You Haye Sadly chnmed Did .I remember? Would I' ever forget the day I made that ple, when Dicky wrestled with, a broken can opener, while I anxiously read and reread my mother’s recipe for pie crust' in her old cook book, Dicky had mischievously insisted upon my kissing him when I was preparing the pie, With the result that we were both liberally besprinkled with flour. But how I wished that he had chosen any other time for his reminiscences, for his_mather had stiffened perceptibly at his words. . “Out of a can-" she said scorn- fully., “To compare a ple made of stuff taken from a tin can with one made from mince meat such as I have prepared ‘today! But I need not have éexpected anything else from you, Richard. You have sadly changed | nowadays. But at least Elizabeth 'ana William and the children will appreciate real mince ples.” I did not miss the little pin prick concerning the change in Dicky since his marriage, It was a familiar one to me for his mother always used it in one form or another when she was displeased With me. Mother Graham Is Disappointed. And of course I knew that secretly she still angrily resented my ultima- tum that she give no more orders to Katle concerning the household routine, Outwardly, however, she gave no hint that she had ever been a .participant in the stormy scene when Katie swept her cake bow! and batter to the floor and announced that she would *leave dis minnit.” I was quite proud of my powers as a diplomat when I reviewed the way in which I had managed the belli- gerent ogponents, Katle, remorseful and eager to atone for her fit of temper, had worked like a beaver all the week, while my mother- in- law, calmly majestic, had busied herself with the birthday dinner cookery, For we; were in the midstiof the the drug prepargtions for the visit of Dicky's| sister and her family. I had man- aged to satisfy Mother Graham's de- mands that a general house clean- ing precede the holiday, and at the same time placate Katie’s very natural resentment at so much extra work, by éngaging a strong colored woman for several days to work under Katie's directian. 2 As 2 result every nook and corner of the old house was as spic and span as skilful hands and soap and water could make them. And packed away in big stone jars were stores of | cookies and doughnuts ready for the onslaught of four hungry. children.

RURAL DRAMA AT “THE LYCEUM NEXT A rural play utterly devoid of the clap trap comedy so common in plays of this class, is the offering of the ‘Walter Naylor Players for next week, The story is one of sweet simplicity; yet there is an abundance of drama- tic action and .real’ heart interest. As “Nellie,” a motherless child, Miss | Dorathea Antel will have a rgle some- what like Peggy O’Moore, which de- lightful characterization is pleasantly remembered snd Philip will interpret the role of “Old Mose’”’ a splendid type of ‘the loyal “befo’ de war"” darky. Miss Perry as “Elizabeth,” ' the ' haughty cousin, and Ralph Murphy as “Jerry,” her more democratic brother, are very well cast. "All other members of the company will also be seen to advantage and Mr. Naylor has given the" play a ,careful production. It was the inlen!lon to prodiice ‘“‘Oliver Twist” next week but Mr. Naylor has decided to make some révision before producing it.

Sunday evening the Lyceum will feature Peggy Hyland in a dramatization of that powerful drama taken from the powerful novel “The Enemy.” This photoplay was pro- cured only through the most untiring efforts and is a drama which teaches and interests but does pot preach.
