COMING ATTRACTIONS,

NATIONAL THEATER.-Charlcs Froh-
mans Empire Theater Company Of New
York Is to be at the National Theater on
Monday evening, and will begin by pre-
senting Brother Officers" written by Capt
Leo Trevor. 1t deals extensively with army
life, its prides and prejudices. When first
produced year before last at the Garrick
Theater, London, 1t was remarked that the
author had harked back to the days of
Tom Robertson and James Albery for his
model OF construction, and had entirely dis
carded the more modern idea Of presenting
abstruse problems and somewhat unpleas-
ant happenings in building his story. This
caused some adverse criticism of his play
at that time, but the usual result OF the
support Of the public for sweet clean, even
I If conventional story obtained, and the play
had prosperous career. When Charles
Frohman prepared it for presentation at
the Empire Theater, New York, last De-
cember, he was prepared against the pos
sible lukewarm interest Of the public there
in 50 simple and straightforward a tale by
having ready new work by Clyde Fitch
to offer at short notice. But Mr.. Fitch's
probably receive its premier during the
coming season. Brother Officers pleased
the public and ran to a succession of full
houses until the end OF the season and re-
opened that theater with this company just
prior TO the present tour. The author, in
the meantime having gone to South Africa
with his regiment, received in that distant
land news of the Endorsement here Of the
London verdict and of the pleasing royal
ties which were rolling up here for him
while he was performing his duties as a
soldier. This Is Captain Trevor's first dra-
matte work. but the play has done for him
as "His Excellency'' did for his brother
officer" Captain Marshall, and he now has
orders for all he can write. The story of
the play is concerning a brave soldier who
has been deservedly raised from the ranks
to commission In crack regiment, but
who finds too late that something more
than bravery and honesty is necessary to
make him at ease among gentlemen born
and bred. He learns the lesson without
rancor. and makes the sacrifice the situa-
ton demands Of him like true gentle
man.
As will be seen. there Is nothing especially
startling in the story. but it is clean and
] interesting. and teaches q good, though per-

The Hntless Girls Hair.
From the Boston Herald.


What Is this awful rumor about the hat
less girls losing their hair? Complaints of
the condition of woman's greatest glory
are now heard on every side, and the chief
sufferers appear to be the golfing crowd,
those damses who pride themselves on not
having worn hat this summer. The accu-
mutations of dust, the direct rays of the
sun. the moisture caused by extreme exer-
else and very hot season all combine to
destroy the silken texture of the hair
Shampooing is powerless to arrest this de-
generation, with its inevitable falling out of
the precious chevelure. On the other hand

abandon luxuries which are second nature
