1t is nearly nine years since the
last nails Were cut at the old Benwood
nail factory and the fact is interesting
because of the increasing demand at
present for iron cut nails. which as
is known, were driven out of the mar

In local industrial circles there is some
hope that the old factory which con-
tains one hundred and twenty-four
nail machines, may be started up
some day in the near future, and give

Although Alexander Dumas. famous
story OF The Three Musketeefs" has
been before the public for many years
In different versions, the success OF
the performance rested solely upon the
shoulders OF the aetcr who played
D'Artagnan This was due to the fact
that not one Of the many versions
contained good love story. and hence
could not be called good play, as IL
lacked the one touch of nature that
makes the whole world akin. When
Sydney Grundy undertook to write
his new version for Beerbohm Tree
which he aptly called The Musket-
GERS" to the exclusion OF ether YER
sions that might appear, he thorough
ly understood this defect. and set about
at once to remedy it. And 10. when
his play was produced, no less than
four love stories were introduced. That
the great public quickly responded 10
this magnetic change was evinced by
the throngs that filled to the doors.
