Vienna theaters are devoted ore
than any others in Europe to the pro-
duction of plays dealing with the life
of the city. Studies of character, pic
lures of city existence, and the pre-
sentation of local types always inter-
est the Viennese public. The Last
Button and For the Child, two strik-
ing plays of this kind, acted there re-
Gently, were followed by The Monster
Hare in four acts. 1t proved to be in
teresting chiefly through the remark
ably faithful reproduction of Wen
nese carpenters domestic experiences.
Scarcely week passes that one of
the Vienna theaters does not produce
play Of this kind.
Not in years was there such a great
success scored at Powers theater,
Chicago, as was made by Viola Allen
at the commencement of this season
as Glory Quayle in The Christian. For
five weeks Miss Allen played to such
enormous houses that efforts were
made to continue her engagement,
but previous bookings prevented. She
is now back for a brief engagement

STEWART WAS INTERESTING.

which has nothing to do with this
story. Senator Stewart came to town
in the course of his campaigning
through Kentucky, and each newspaper
assigned a man to get a story. l was
one of the bunch that hit him at the
Gait house. We thought that Senator
Stewart. as one of the biggest men in
public life, would be correspon0lngly
hard to interview. Naturally, we were
nervous. After we had told our de-
signs, he told us to go ahead and inter-
view him. We had hard time getting
started, and finally he told us to stand
up in row. With the artists there
were six or seven of us. After we had
lined up he said:
How many of you are married? p
Two admitted that they had families.
and he told them to stand aside.
Now, you other fellows. DCot get
married. Without free and unlimited
coinage of silver you cannot properly
support your wives. You will bring
children into the world which you can
not properly educate or care for. They
will be miserable. There, that's all the
interview. I'll bet your papers will not
print it Washington Post.

FARMERS HARD LOT.
Long Hours Are What Destroy His
Constitution

The civil war proved conclusively
that the dudes who danced all night
possessed a greater endurance than
the sturdy farmers who did not know
the meaning of dissipation. The
trouble with our farmers is hours. 1
do not mean those capitalistic gentle
men who own 100000 acres of land
and $25,000,000 to have it titled with
on business principles, but the strug-
Cling hayseeds who are called the
backbone of our country-the poor
devils who have to turn in and do
chores morning and night, who milk
the cows, curry the horses, feed the
pigs, go to mill, SOW the wheat, plow
the corn. NOV the hay, etc. Their
mental and physical degeneracy is
easily explained. They potter about
the farm 16 hours day and live on
fat pork and corn bread, washed down
with copious draughts of sickening
brown mush called coffee.
Getting up before the dew is off the
grass has ruined many a farmer
ruined his family, ruined his horses
and cattle. Ten hours a day are
enough for the horses and should be
enough for the man. Every hour over
ten Is strain. l mean if genuine la
Dor is put on, not stopping at the end
OF every furrow to swap lies and spit.
The farmer who allows his hoe or
pillow 16 hours day doesn't do more
than six or seven hours of good work.
The rest of his time is wasted. OF
course, he thinks he is working, but
thinks don't make crops. Most farm
ers are thin to cancellation, and prec-
ious few of them keep their horses
in proper condition. Truck gardeners
manage to live on the fat of the land
because they drive to town nearly
every other day and learn the other
way.-New York Press.

Don't Be "Behindhand."
No matter how small or large the
town may be that n person lives In
there is always an example Of a self
made man or woman whom the COM
munity takes pride in as rejecting
glory upon themselves. These ambi-
tious ones attained their present COM
Portable status by grasping opportuni-
ties when they saw them and hanging
on with grim determination when they
took hold. The lack of opportunity
is ever the excuse of a weak, vacil-
latlng mind. Read the story of any
successful man and mark its moral.
He who improves upon opportunity
sows n seed which will yield fruit for
himself and others. Some people are
always a little too late in everything
they undertake. "They have three
hands apiece" says John B. Cough,
"a right hand, left hand and little
behindhand." Now is the right time
to begin this work. Don't delay any
longer than is necessary. Read the
list of the special rewards and their
nature and try to realize how much is
meant by them.
