oh, Saturday we girls always go out
together. To-day l am mistress OF GER

come and see May Irwin; and l will
tell you why: She's so perfectly whole

be objected to, and her songs-well,
her darkey songs are simply delicious.

Mr.. NEWLY RIGHTS COMMENTS.
Mr.. Newly Rich looked at Angela
with increased admiration because she
voiced his opinion, and he told her:
You see, Miss Angela, May Irwin is
really a cemedienne in the best sense
Of the word; remember wSien you
were a little girl at school (and here
he looked very importantly, seeing her
and her sister do little act at Tony
Pastors; I've been told that Mr.. DAILY
heard of her and engaged her, and FOR
four YEARS she was with him, although
she ditlt play very much; but she
learned an awful lot from him; and a
man that / know who knows her, says
that she's determined to get better ana
better every year. Then, too, like her
plays" Here Mr.. Newly Rich, VINO
had evidently forgotten something

tinued: Now, take those Hoyt plays;
oh, yes, they are funny in way, but
they are so full of horse play, and there
are such a lot Of chestnuts in them;
while this man-whats his name (and
here he looked at his programme

how to make thing pleasant anu
funny without its being rough, ana
how to fetch in all the clever songs
that we like" And when he said we

ness CT the song that May Irwin sang,
and Tommy managed to tell MN,
across the other two girls, that she
knew an old darkey down South VINO
was just like "Crappy Dan" surely
MAY Irwin ought to feel proud! AS
young Newly Rich said: "You always
see such lot Of nice girls at her mat

THEIR GENTLEMANLY ESCORT.
At the third wait Newly Rich didn't
appear; but when the matinee was over
he was beside Tommy, helping her VITA

ISN'T IT GOOD TO BE 4 GIRL
and young and pretty and capable of
enioving ones self! Isn't it good to
he a nice girl-liked by ones girl
friends. and pleasing to men! There's
a great deal of pleasure in the world
for q nice girl. But she's got to be
tborouchly nice. And really nice girl
is unsalfsh: she tries to make other
people have q good time. And a really
nice girl is clean-minded; she hopes 10
have a daughter of her own some day,
and she don't want to think Of her
own girlhood as not quite nice. And
really nice girl is considerate; she
gives every other girl her chance to
have good time. But there-you
know what a really nice girl is as well
as do. she's the sirl YOU want TO mar
ry-ves. YOU do-and she's the girl you
ought to u1rry-yes, she is-on the
,scrd and honor Of Bah.
