There is an affinity between summer and Herr Hammerstein. It was the latter who discovered the former, New York was hardly conscious that it had a summer until Herr Ham- merstein invented the roof garden. The gayest thing about the roof garden is its name. that carries it. ~ You've no idea “ny emotions of envy and adiiration are excited in 0 It's the name mural places by letters from loved ones describing these dizzy metropolitan resorts. “You ought to have see me last night,’ writes the travelled villager, “up on the Paradise Roof Garden’—— “Paradise Roof Garden!" echo the gossips, their jaws dropping. “Well by gum!” “It must be a mile or half a mile up in the air,” continues the chron- fcler, “but you don't have to watk up no ladder, becduse there's one of them elevator cars takes you up in a jiffy so you ’most lose your breath. ‘And up there {t's so cold these hot nights that you wisht you'd brought your overcoat. And there's nothing but palms, and fans that whizzle round and round, and walters bringing you drinks that cost a sight, and the beautiful ladies of the Four Hundred in thelr mos: gorgeous clothes listening to the bard and watching the folks on the stage doing stunts.” Bd o so o* Pd Rd os isn’t the reality that counts with the roof-garden public; it’s the name, I and ell that it suggests to the greedy imagination. ‘And the influence of the name doesn’t fade. No matter how often and sadly you've experienced the real thing, the name is potent to thrill, “Roof garden"—there’s magic in it! Small wonder that Herr Hammerstein is performing prodigies of profit- garnering with the Paradise! is Some of theso days, so terrific is his energy, he will probably take the soof garden in hand and make it attractive in something else besides name—raise the standard of its stage performances, for instance, But that hasn't occurred to him yet, and the century is still young, At present the main object is to present a “Spectacular Extravaganza— Words and music by Oscar Hammerstein." The words and music may with an effort be forgiven, but one wonders why the versatile author-manager selected Miss Josephine Sabel for the leading part. That energetic lady is reputed to be a favorite ‘‘on the circuit,” but her sulphuric acid personality is co foreign to Broadway tastes that after a week's experience she might well explain to Mr. Hammerstein, in the words of the immortal Miss Templeton, “I ain't goin’ to be no chaser for no man- ager!" a ed oe a os a Rad N the vaudeville part of the show the animals are the best artists— horses, dogs and montys that do perfectly stunning things without giving you the disagreeable impression of having been ill-used. But hold on!

How it ts able to do| the many “stunts” it does is appar- ently inexplicable. It is the figure 9. Give 9 a test, for instance, by mul- tiplying it by 2 or any other figure above 1 tll 11 is reached, and then use 11 if you care to, and the addition of the result of ench muitiplieation will be 9 Just as sure as fate, Now, off-hand, multiply 9 by itself. Nine times 9 Js 81, isn't it? Add the result— 8 plus 1 is 9 Make a leap to any bis number you pl tiply 6,812,982 by 9. sug? Here it is, this long string of figures, 61,086,638. Add the figures of tius string together. The result is 45. Well, 4 plus 6 equala 9, Figure 9 has bobbed up serenely thus far, hasn't i? Here is another squéezer, If you try to corner 9 by using Its own digits against itself, it will eushre you. Now, Just see how it does it. Jot down on a bit of paper any row of figures, big or little, for 9 doesn't care a snap, and subtract the digits—in other words, che total resulting from (he addition of all the figures in the line~and, utterly in- different a to what figures you put ina row the digits of the situation added re- veal §, Put down, say, 8,754,804. By add- Ing these figures you get as a result 45, Now deduct that 4% from the row of figures, In table form the doings of 9 8,764.89. 45—deducted. HS—added make 45—chat equals 9. One would think that 9 would confine Itself to its vast fleld of multiplication doings, put It does not. It goes Into th) subtraction business, too, on a mreat scale, To make things all the im jaurorisioe, if a number of f placed in a row cand, reversing thelr action is made, always providing, of cours that one can be. and the digits ure now added, 9 tur up smiling, just as it did in the maul ttpli- cation tests.
