not going to care very much for him or
them when their loving admiration is
counted of no worth. No, if We want
king, we must do as those men who
train the race winners. We must catch
him young, and be sure that he has
good blood in his veins.
Speaking of men who own racehorses,
that slender. small, dark little man who
lust went by owns some | would like to
have-it is Dave Gideon. A good COM
bination of adjectives may be applied
to him-he is kind and lucky. Poor
George Drew Barrymore used to call
this well-dressed, MISUNDERSTANDING
man,
THE STAR BOARDER OF THE
FAMILY"
You know who it is-John Drew. And
this great, big, handsome man, wearing
a fur-trimmed Overcoat and walking
with a woman whose figure is fine, but
whose face is so muffled up you can

with him is Fanny Davenport, his wife.

Davenport: she is the kindeSt and most
considerate of actresses to the stage
folk: she is willing to spend her money
for them. and she is willing to help
them. The people in her company,
who wish to succeed, are encouraged
and assisted by her, and she mas never
been envious of another actress, or act

and does it well. loves and is loyal to
her own people, and deserves TO be
happy.
All the rest of the people who pass
along are wonderfully alike. The so
cietv Girl is out in full force, for Just
now she has a new pose. The knowing
girl is quite out of style. The girl Oh
to-day. with her hair turned oil her
face very softly, must look innocent;
must try as far as possible to get on
her face the look of a baby. she longs
to appear absolutely ignorant put
alasl She finds it difficult. l cross over

when YOU are thirsty or hungry, to be
satisfied with sour milk taken through
q long black tube like a gaspipe? Any
sensible being would kick and rage ana
do ANYTHING that would call up his Sa-
tanic Majesty. The learned doctors
cav that babies draw in with the milk

is so the coming man Is TO be dreaded.
He will be a sour, nasty, dyspepuc
creature. I may be bit Old-fashion-
