AOYAL HONORS OF THE MARDI GRAS Friends Start Work for Some Two Score Candidates on First Day's Voting. | | broust t to America $1 FOR FIRST BALLOT. from Sender of a Corse ayton Vote. feign over the Coney Island Mard!-Gras and Carnival of tha Age of Progress, for the week of Sept. 14, started yester- day with a rush which promises a hot contest for the crown and dladem of the Isle of Joy. The polls had not been open an hour, and the Ink was hardly dry on the official ballot printed in The Evening World, when a red-faced and red-headed boy In an A. D. T. uniform rushed Into the office of the Mardi- Gras Editor, and, fairly hurling a dainty envelope at him, asked hoarsely: "Ts that the first vote.cast for King? "Cause the lady promised me $1 extra if I got her vote In first.” It was the first vote, and the editor obliged the boy by honoring his request for a ‘'stifcate’’ to that effect, The envelope contained a ballot neatly filled out in a feminine hand, and in favor of “Corse Payton, owner and manager of the Lee Avenue Theatre, Brooklyn,” And there was a note also which sald In part: Takes No Chances Now. "It was a shame that express wagon broke down so it reached The Evening| World office too late, on the last day of the election iast year, with that Dundle of ballots which would have elected him King, and I wish, by exam- ple, to impress upon Mr, Payton’s mill- fon friends in Brooklyn the desirability of getting the votes In early, Maybe! everybody does not know that after a six weeks’ vacation Mr. Payton is going to open his Lee Avenue Theatre next Monday, when he will present M Fiske's play, "The Modern Magdalen," Fox, who was the Queen last sum- mer, and Leon Hail and A. ©, War- dure. “Now all the Corse Paytonites should get together and never stop until they have elected him King, for he !s prince of joliity, and is deserving of every honor. “MRS E. A. V., Division avenue.” When a reporter called at the theatre he found Payton superv'sing its rehabili- tation. It has been redecorated from pit to dome and made new or, as the | | {rrepressible actor-manager put It, “Been swept out.’ This theatre is unique in that "the house’ {s practically | all sold out for the whole season of forty-six weeks before the first perform- ance Is given. There are 3, ubserlb- ers,” as the books show, each reserving weats for his family for one night in each week for the entire season, and the tickets for the season are filed away in his compartment in an immense case | of pigeon holes, there to stay until used in the weeks to come, “There are seldom more than two or hundred seats left for the daily! id A.

Anty Drudge—*Why not make your essay about practical things: ‘How Fels-Naptha Has Lightened Woman's Work.’ After you are married, and have a house of your own, you will find that Fels-Naptha has done more to take the sting out of housework than any- thing ever invented,” f — The three great forward steps in woman’s housework are: The modern range in place of the old fireplace and kettle; The sewing machine in place of laborious hand-sewing; Fels-Naptha soap, which makes it easy to wash clothes in cool or lukewarm water, without boiling or hard rubbing, Of these three, Fels-Naptha saves the woman more back-breaking labor, more time, more money, and does more to make life pleasanter than either of the others, At the very first, you can see how it saves time and labor, but perhaps you'll wonder how Fels-Naptha saves money. In two ways: First it saves the cost of coal or gas to heat water and boil the clothes, Then the clothes last longer when washed with Fels-Naptha in cool or luke- warm water. Their fibre isn’t weakened by boil- ing nor strained by hard rubbing. You can’t realize just what a help Fels-Naptha is until you've tried it in your own washing, Why not begin next washday? Fels-Naptha easy way of washing in place of the tiresome, tedious back-break- ing method.
