James A. Herne's remarkable play Of
American home life, Shore Acres. %
has achieved mCst remarkable sue
cess and the seventh season for this
charming work promises to be even
more profitable than any OF the preced-
Ing ones. IL may be truthfully said Of
"Shore Acres" that il deals exclusively
in the ideal. and leaves the realistic 30
the pay CT the imagination 1t is an
anima.ed poem, illustrated by series
of never-ending pictures of life in a
New England home. connected by an
ever-moving vein OF quiet humor. SEN
timent and pathos. Il IS a play full of
rugged magnetism that rivets the at
tention, not so much by it's plot. which
is as simple as the characters who cre-
ate Il, ais by the charm Of its beauti-
fully native repoee. The play intro
duces a number of bright. interesting
children and so natural and unaffected
in their several parts that they do not
seem conscious OF being on the stage.
There are nearly thirty characters in
.troduced in this work by Mr. Herne,
and an are admirably drawn and true
TO life. A th0rughly firet-c.ass scenic
representation Of this famous comedy
dluma will be given at the Grand
