REST.

To understand the way to rest is Of
more Importance than to know how
to work The latter can be learned
easily; the former it takes years to
learn, and some people never learn
the art of resting. 1t is simply
change of scenes and activities. Loaf
ing may not be resting. Sleeping is
not always resting. Sitting down for
days with nothing to do is not restful.
A change is needful to bring into play
a different set Of faculties, and to turn
the life into a new channel. The man
who works hard finds his rest in play
ing hard. The man who is burdened
with care finds relief in something
that is active, yet free from response
bility. Above all, keep good-natured,
and don't abuse your best friend, the
stomach. So says the American Ana
lyst, and it is all very true that the
question of rest depends good deal
on how you are tried and what has
done it. The good old housewives
idea of heaven was a place "where
she could put on clean apron and
sit down." If one is worn out with
long continued overwork and under
nourishment, or if work and mental
worry have left the victim without
the power to summon energy enough
to play or to seek new occupation,
time of keeping still and doing abso-
lutely nothing, until nature gets hold

Black makes a woman look slender.
1t is the thinnest color stout person
can wear. It also makes a woman
look old. 1t is the worst color an
aging woman can wear.
White makes a woman look big,
wholesome, innocent, winsome and
classic. Slim and sickly, careworn
and colorless women look best with
velvet bonnet strings and lace ruche
or scarf about the neck.
A woman with auburn hair should
beware of pink, strawberry and scar
let Blue above her waist is apt to
make an unpleasantly strong contrast.
Green is her color. White will be
her standby.
A stout woman should have plaids,
founces, and ruff1es and thin woman
must avoid stripes. Red will brighten
any woman but one with auburn hair.
1t is the most charitable color in chro-
matics. Invalids on their "up'' days
look their very prettiest in red robes.

Mothers should be impressed with
the Importance of caring for the chill
dren's teeth from infancy. From the
time the first teeth make their appear
ance they need constant care. Every
morning the mouth and little teeth
should be carefully washed with a
soft sponge or cloth dipped in luke
warm water. If they begin to decay
before nature intends the first ones to
fall out, to be replaced by the perma-
nent set, they should be filed by
dentist with bone filling, or some soft
preparation which will not require
much cutting to hold in place. This
will preserve the baby's teeth as long
as will be necessary, land will also pre-
serve the shape of the face, as can
not be done if the teeth are drawn
prematurely, thus allowing the jaws
to shrink

The Present Patti.

wen twrites the New York Advertiser In
geiid, bioodless sort of strain) Patti has
come and gone without producing ripple of
interest among the people who are really musi-
cal. She is no longer a great singer. Her
voice Is but the shadow Of its former self. She
Is merely curiosity, sort OF vocal bric-a-brac.
Inc Venef ring is cracked here and there very
pereeptibly, and flaws that can no longer be
disguised begin 10 show. Effort in singing Is
often apparent now ana this effort sometimes
is unsuccessful. When one remembers that
she is an artist who is not forced TO continue
ner career. that she is not fighting for musical
cause, that she Is immen sely wealthy ana still
uses her former reputation TO accumulate
greater hoards OF gold. then sympathy for the
decaoence gives way to disgust and indigna-
tIon. Der concert in Music Hall was not a
nuge success; the were fewer bouquets less
rapture, enusi0n and kissing of children, such
as have accompanied her former appearances
In truth she l. played out ana people are be-
ginning 10 know ii. No need 10 advertise this
as a farewell appearance. The people have
settled that fact once and for all.
10 the vocal student there Is something of
value IN observing such performance as Patti
gave Devoid OF artistic instincts ana sincere
devOtl0n 10 music for Itself as she had always
Deen, III must be conceded without the slightest
hesitation that she has been the greatest vocal
technicalist OF the last half century. Some OF
tnls technique, OF course, remains, but what Is
useful 10 The studen is TO observe how she
CLOSES over her defects, how deiicately she
avoids the weak points, how gracefully she
SKINS over the thinnest ice. That Is the only
value she possesses now as an artist and IL Is
scarcely worth S5 z ticket.

THE INVOLVEMENT.
The story Of how the play came to be written,
as told by Rhea herself. Is most inter- sting.
Early last season she q. cided TO appear in a
new play this fall. Always having loved the
character OF Tamar, Queen of Sheba, she de-
cided 10 have play built about her personal
1ty. A well-knowD American dramatist was
chosen for the work, but be was prevented
from accomplishing II by III health. Three
Gays before sailing for France last spring Rhea
was Informed that the American could not
write The play. She then decided to offer
prize 10 Paris for the best play founded on this
historical parsonage. On the way across Rhea
met fellow-countryman who learned of her
desire for play OF the queen. On his recon-
mendation she had an interview with Nj.
Adren Barbusse. the famous oriental scholar
and dramatisf. NJ. Barbusse became enthusl.
astic w ith the idea as soon as it was broached.
He set 10 work Immediately and in four weeks
.he play was finished. 1t was translated into
English by J. l.. knubley OF the Paris Herald
and London Times. Not ten lines have been
cut from the original.
The play is repleIe with startling climaxes
but none detract from the grand finale. The
cosiumts are Historically correct, designed by

The Old Story.

An unsigned communication. but with the
appearance of having come 10 the New York
Sun from Frederick Warde, is as follows
when Frederick Warde was playing at the
Star member of his company was Informed by
the head OF a certain theatrical agency that II
$1,000 had be en- put into the hands OF said head
by Mr.. Warde he would have received mosI
gen rous treatment from the newspapers here.
When Mr.Warde learned Of his he sent word 10
the person referred 10 that the statement was
lie, and that he would entertain no idea OF any
such influence"
On this the paper comments: II Mr. Warde
wrote or sent that he must follow II with par
tlculars or be considered cowardly and
malicious slanderer. Once IN a while some dis
appointed actor talks in that way about cor
ruption among the theatrical critics. and the
columns of the Sun have as often been opened
10 the exposure Of The bTibed individuals, VI
there were any, but none Of the actors under
took 10 substantiaIe his charge. VIII Mr..
Warde be the exception? VIII he tell who was
'the head of a certain theatrical agency" that
solicited. through "a member OF his company"
$1,000 with which 10 bribe the critics? =? Unless
there Is liar in Mr.. WaTde's immediate
netghbothood some explicit revelation will he
made. Mr.. Warde needs TO speak right out,
either making good what he appears 10 have
said or denying that lie said IL.
