Learning to Apply Dye,

The importations of dye from Paris have fallen off to nothing, and appren- tices in barbering don't have to learn the business If applying it as they used to. In this shop we had wooden ball with a nail hammered in it. to which we would attach some ordinary rope tow. Then the apprentice would pitch in and dye it, and when he could apply the fluid so that it gave an even color and didn't stick the hair together like so much glue. we would turn over cus- toner to him to try his hand on.-Inter- view in New York Herald.

Friends" Mt tho Stan ndard.

A new drama. which had come In from the
West with friendly words in its favor. was
tested at the Standard last night Its failure
was respectable. though 1t was none the
less emphatic. That is to say. 1t was
at fno time an absolute flasco. just as
it was no time an uncommon or original piece
of playwriting. 1t is he-e called Friends"
and it is the work Of Edwin Milton Royle. who
had been an actor prior to this essay as q
dramatist. Mr.. Royle Is young. and he seems
70 be in earnest He has doubtless expended
many hours Of deep thought and careful
research in the construction Of his plays: and
he appears to have great many friends who
filled the boxes and most of the seats In the
Standard last night and applauded all the vio-
lent things in Friends" with cheering and
rare enthusiasm which may have momentarily
led Mr.. Boyle into the belief that he had tri-
umphed.
