THE NEW THEATRICAL SEASON.

The diaphanous frivolities Of the Sum-
mer have come to an end, and next
week begins the genuine, undiluted. and
ever-welcome theatrical period, flip
PANTY known as 1.-The regular season"
1t Is here. and we need not worry our
selves with consideration Of the various
optimistic and pesslmistic views that
students OF the outlook" always set
forth at this time OF the year. Sufficient
for the day Is the fact that the season
opens. and opens auspiciously.
In a few weeks we shall be in the
promises to be unusually interesting.
| There will be Francis Wilson at one
theatre. Della Fox at another. De Wolf
Hopper at a third. and each Is going to
give us something new. Marie Tempest
has deserted us, but we shall recover
from even that disaster, for we have
Miss Beaudet and others.
Mr.. DAILY and his admirable company
will be with us this year-which is a
setback for the pessimists. At the EN-,
pire Theatre, we shall get the results OF
the thorough securing Of the European
Continent made by Charles Frohman
who has brought over everything worth
having. and all for US. At the Lyceum
Mr.. Daniel Frohman puts forward Soth,
ern In a brand-new play by an Anglo.
| American author, and later on. his splen
did stock company will minister to al
our wants
| Mr.. Abbey is going to introduce to u,
Beerbohm Tree. an actor with repu
tation In London second only to that o
Mr.. Irving. Mr.. Abbey will doubtless
have few other surprises for US, II W,
behave ourselves nicely. for there is n,
limit to his resources.
All Is activity, hustle, well-directe,
effort in the various play houses OF tn
city. We never know how necessar,
these are to us until they are mute an,
inglorous. We clamor for our actor
and actresses. for. like the little boy Il
the song, we cannot play alone. Besides
theatre-going is licensed self-forgetful
ness, and that Is what communit

or course. this would mean leaving
its business unfinished. but II doesn't
make a cents worth of difference to any
human being whether 1t brings It's bust
ness to a formal ending or not. As far
as any public acceptance OF Its verdict
is concerned Its business Is finished. and
finished very completely.
Chairman Wright has been asked what
truth there was in the current rumor
that ne was investigating the Pullman
strike with a Pullman pass in his pocket.
and promptly answered that he had
such a pass. 1t Is an annual pass, and
he uses II whenever he wants to.
Mr.. Wright is very frank about It, He
says: II use II whenever / please. The
pass was given to me by Mr.. Pullman
who Is a personal friend Of mine, and
have had 1t for several years-ever since
the first Pullman investigation I made
for I suppose that's what you are driv
ing at. I never knew Mr.. Pullman until
then. but met him at that time. and hi
has always been a warm friend OF mine
since then. He gave me the pass and
invited me to ride on his cars whenever
l wanted to. just as man would invite
another to take a ride in his carriage"
Mr.. Wright is probably sincere In the
belief that his possession OF a Pullman
pass and his warm personal friend
ship for Mr.. Pullman do not disqualif,
him to 81: in judgment on the merits Of
the bitter controversy between the Pull
man Company and Its employees. but HI
is, to say the least, mistaken. At any
rate he cannot expect. and he has NJ
right to expect, the working people t.

ask public opinion to accept any verde
from him as impartial. This 10 a ques
ton about which there can be no DIFF

Charity.

Women are far too economical In
the use of kind words. In bestowing
praise they are absolutely stingy. II
mothers are critical and uncharitable,
what can be expected Of the children?
No one is perfect. Teach your lips to
speak pleasant words daily, and to avoid
evil communications. Idle gossip should
never influence you in your treatment of
persons. Learn its source. learn Its TRUTH
and then be governed by good sense In
the matter. And do not lend fine powers
of conversation in speaking evil tidings
of others. II you cannot speak well oil
your acquaintance and friends do not
talk about them. No one escapes calumny
the greatest and purest Of men and
women are forced to endure 1t, but
Danish 1t from your own mouth.

Value of Fruits.

Fruits are better than drugs to i'm
prove the stomach and complexion. 1t is
not fact that fruits produce acidity Of
the stomach. On the contrary, they cor
rect 1t. Ripe apples, pears, plums and
peaches eaten raw, without sugar, are
medicine for sour stomach. The veg
etab.e salts are converted into alkaline
carbonates. which purify by counteract-
ing the acidlty already in the stomach.
Diners who overeat and have fits Of
indigestion and the blues next morning,
take carbonate Of soda. in tablets OF
liquid; ripe. Juicy apple or two and no
other breakfast would cost less and do
more good.

and o'clock every night and until II p. NJ

morning. Now why should not we as we'll as
the retail dry-goods clerks be entitled to a
half holiday! And for one should not complain
were the stores to close every night at 6 o'clock
and Saturdays at p. NJ. But think It en-
tirely unfair to compel to work until the hours
which nrst mentioned And then again. while
other stores close legal holidays We keep open
half day anyway. and many Of them all day.

Cannot a lady purchase her groceries before the

Yes! Just as easily as she can her dry goods.
