= Economy There !: Wealth

Most people know the truth Of this old saying but so
few profit by it. There is no economy in buying end
and 3rd grade goods, short filled and water
packed goods. They are dear at any price
We have plenty of room in store to do
business, but we have shelves for in
feror goods 1t is pleasure sell good goods but
it is like robbery sell poor stuff 1t only robs
you OF your money but robs you of your health
because cheap goods put up from inferior pro-
ducts, by cheap, dirty labor.
We do not set up claim that we do sell you at
less per pound but will give better grade of goods
We give you worth of goods for each dollar
and 10 OF to the pound, no more, no less.
We are in better position in our new store to
keep our goods, fresh, clean and nice Ladies' when

interest to this favorite parsonage, and so Miss Sawyer's book is very timely In her preface she says that if the de- tails of the romance may not be found upon the written page of any chronicler, neither will the most csreful student find evidence that they are untrue. The young author has taken the wild tales and revels and riots among his friends, the poets, and proven him to be a youth both manful and virtuous." In fact. Miss Sawyer has almost idealized her young hero and has made of him a prince royal indeed. And of course, this delin- cation will come as a surprise to many readers but indeed q. very delightful surprise. In the opening pages of the story the author wins her readers en- tire attention and confidence in the prom ise of most readable romance given in the description of the young French monks fatal love.
 The passing of the beautiful miniature into the possession of Harry Monmouth and his subsequent devotion to the fair spontaneous devotion of Henry V to the French Princess Katherine. In fact there are many incidents in his life and character which are only hinted at in history that are here made plain and accounted for in romantic ways.
 The old nobility which was in the height of it's proud arrogance just before ''The War of the Roses" is here depict ed with marvellous accuracy and frank ness The royal Beauforts and Morti mers, the Hollands and Staffords and many others who took such an active part in the wonderful events of the time. The love story which runs through the dramatic relation of events is the golden thread which lends glamour and bri1lian- cy to the story. The secret motive of the hatred of Baron Scroop for Prince Hal and his subsequent vengeance Is TO- manticaly given in this-Lord's suit to the Lady Anne Stafford and her supposed love for the Prince. Every Inch a King is an unusually strong piece of work. The characters are splendidy portrayed; they are individual and hu man. The style Is sprightly and smooth, with just enough of the old time express sion and diction to give verity to the mediocral life. While the execution and relation of the story is vigorous and dramatic, and the interest of the story we'll sustained from page to page.
 Bertha Runkle's remarkable novel. 'The Helmet of Navarro" is well called "A Tale of Swift Action and a recent critic rather jocularly remarks that,
The age-herald., 1901-06-16

writers of attenuated realism who re- fuse conscientiously to let anything hap pen in their novels will be pained by the tumultuous incidents crowded so reck- lessly into The Helmet of Navarro.
 The story appeared serially in the Gen. tury Magazine and attracted such wide attention and so much praise that the first edition of the book comprised one hundred thousand, made imperative by the advance orders This is unprecedent- ed even in these days of yecord-breakers. Not every book that reaches such sales, however, is to be considered literature in the highest sense of the term. Not every one who reads wishes story to be a masterpiece and destined to im- mortality. These are strenuous times in which we live and it is excusable if in our fiction we do not demand too much and make ourselves content with the TO- nance that can divert and amuse. The Helmet of Navarro may not be able to stand searching comparison with an Es- mond, an Ivenhoe, or a Trois Musquet- aires, but 1t is a good story for all that. Like the days of Prince Hal in Eng land. there exists peculiar sentiment and interest for all that pertains to the times of Navarro in France. The story deals with the days whens the power of the League and of Monsieur de May enne was dying and Henry of Navarro about to ascend the throne of France. The reader who likes a novelist to plunge into his story at once and rush breathessly on to it's close will be de- lighted. The story is told in the first person by one Felix Broux, a youth whose family had for centuries faith fully served the Dukes of St.Inentin. There are snares and secret passages and mysterious inns, plenty of sword play and plots and counter-plots, until the reader is breathless with the excite ment of 1t all. But it holds one spell bound in interest from the very first word and possibly no higher praise could be given piece of work of this kind While Miss Runkles story is undoubted- ly well told and the style is smooth and suave with the exception of an assort- ment of French explosives, there is noth- ing to distinguish the diction from the present day English. The story Is very fully illustrated by Audre Castaigue, master-hand. and is daintily published in covers of blue and silver.
 In the June Critic is a very good DOT trait of MT. Francis w. Halsey, the pop ular editor of the more popular paper, the Times Saturday Review" Although a very busy man, for MT Halsey has been journalist ever since he graduated from Cornell in 1873, he has found time to write book on ''The Old New York Frontier" that meant many hours of pa- tient research. MT. Halsey has been with the New York Times since 1880, and as editor of the Timex Saturday Review has made a wide and envfable reputation.

their pretty little English home at Jack wood, in Kent where they will remain until the last rose of summer has faded and gone. As I informed you over a month ago, MT. Goodwin and his wife will not return here for a year-that is, he will not be seen here on the stage next season. He has taken a theater In Lon don for the winter and will there revive with an American company, When We Were Twenty-One," perhaps one or two others of his successful plays, and pro duce some new dramas. So satisfied was he with the way his revival of "The Merchant of Venice was received this season that he proposed another Shake spearian revival when he returns.
 
 God save the King" is the cry of all loyal Englishmen who desire the per petuation of the monarchy; God save the stage Is the plea of all true admir- CTS of the drama, and preserve it from it's many stage elevators When one looks back a few years and realizes the movements of people and organizations instituted to elevate-God bless the mark the stage it is impossible to refrain from smiling. 'It is to laugh" The latest attempt in this direction is to be made by the Chicago police. There Is to be a police censorship From the reports made by the highly intellectual censors of the Chicago detective police force, 1t is said Chief ONeili is going to interest himself in the matter and take a hand In the elevating business. He says: I shall take the matter under consideration and may decide to take hand in the show business myself" Well, all 1 can say Is, if the shows given in Chicago have shocked Chicago detectives. they must have been pretty loud, and If Chief O'Neill proposes to take hack at a reformation, may his shadow never grow

was taken from his home to Fresh Pond. l.. l., and there cremated. There were no religious services over his remains. Friends gathered around the bier at his home and took last, sad farewell look at the face of the dead. That was all. Peace to his ashes. God rest his soul.
 
 Mark Twain, the humorist. and Syd- ney Rosenfeld. the playrght. 1t is said, are at work on new play which, in all probability will be seen here next sea- son. Both are clever men. They ought, if they strike 1t right, be able to produce something good. But who can tell any thing about 1t. Let us hope, however. that the great American humorist will with so experienced a writer and stage director as Mir. Rosenfed. produce a stage work worthy of the reputations of both.
 Manager Sam Shubert of the Herald Square Theater is going or has gone to London. A short time ago Charley Ev- ans went over there to get "In the Soup from French. l wonder if MT. Shubert Is going to London to pull MT. Evans out and get Tn the Soup himself MaSag CTS and players are people hard to under stand. Where the subject of farce com edy consomme is concerned I find it diff hcult to decide whether to congratulate Shubert and Evans on getting 'In the Soup" or out of 1t.
 Mrs. Sarah Cowell Le Moyne, I hear, is having three plays written for her, but which of the three she will be first seen in has not yet been decided upon. F. Marion Crawford Is at work on one, Madame de Maintenon;" Charles Henry Meltzer is putting the finishing touches on the second, which, 1t Is said, will have the first Duchess of Marlboro as a cen tral figure; and the third play will be the work of some English novelist, name unknown-I mean the name of the play. Let us hope that whatever play she se- lects may meet with a favorable recep- tion. if it deserves It., and if it lacks merit the sooner 1t is sent to the "dem- milton bow-wows" the better American play-goers have had more than enough of poor plays the last few seasons.
 J. K Hackett and his wife. Mary Man nering have sailed for England. The ill- ness of Miss Mannering's sister, who lives there was the cause of the early departure. They will both be back in August to begin preparations for the autumn campaign. Mrs. Hackett first presentation will be Victor Mapes' Don Caesars Return;" after that he will produce another new play, which will possibly be followed by dramati- zation of Winston Churchills novel, ''The Crisis" the dramatic rights of which Mr. Hackett has acquired. This promising young star is determined to have a repertory, and does not propose to go down to fame as a one-character actor. Au revoir.

If every mans internal care

"If every mans internal care
 Were written on his brow,
 How many would our pity share
 Who raise our envy now?'
 is a trite truth How little do we dream of the internal thoughts and troubles and cares of even our most intimate friends. Still more impossible is 1t to judge of the secret springs which prompt the ac- tions of those we know best. For so many of our movements are influenced by personal feelings which are very re- mote from the detection or analysis of an observer, no matter how acute he may be. To discover to the reader these secret springs of action, these personal emotions which have biased the will and then influenced the act is the special province of the writer of historical TO- nance. This alone makes historical fic- tion throb with the versity of actual events. Not every writer can do this not every writer takes the trouble to seek out the reason of things and the motives for certain acts. Then the TO- nance may be true to certain historical facts but it lacks the forcefulness and persuasiveness which makes it conyinc-
 
 the work of very young woman, but 1t is the work of a woman who has thought deeply and sought to solve the mystery of certain eventful actions. Jo- sephine Caloline Sawyer, born at Wa tertown, N. Y, is but % years of age. It is said 'hat her delicate childhood led her to books for her solace and that at an early age she showed decided liter ary promise. An enthusiastic student of Shakespeare, she became deeply interested in the character of Prince Hal and later while visiting the historic parts of older London she sketched out the romance which afterwards took form in Every Inch a King"
 There are certain characters in his tory which will remain favorites with the public even to the end of time, and that of Prince Hal is one of them Miss Sawyer states that she has written her book with the single purpose of proving that the character of the Prince of Wales has been greatly misjudged. Did Miss Sawyer but know it, this was un- necessary, for that same public has never been harsh or severe in its judgments of Merry Prince Hal.

The regular theatrical season is over in the metropolis. Roof garden resorts are now in full flower. With the excep- tion of two or three of the popular price houses the doors of nearly all places of amusement will remain closed until the eultry nights of summer have run their course. The outdoor resorts by the sea- 5hore will all be running under full sail, with all attractions set, within the next week, and from now on until the first day of September, all who can spare Few days or weeks will hie themselves away to the hillsides, farm fields, lake borders and seashore to enjoy the sum mer sunshine and forget dull care.
 Kitty Cheatham, bright American actress, has been making a success in London in a new play called "A Lady From Texas" This work was written py Mrs. T. P. O'Connor, who, by the way, is also an American girl. Kitty Cheatham is a daughter of the Sunny South. and is we'll remembered through out this country. She began her stage career, if I am not mistaken, at the Ca- sino, when it was under the manage ment of Rudolph Aronson. She subse- Muently joined Augustin Daly's company and remained there for some seasons. For the past few seasons she has been in retirement. Her reappearance in Lon don with such a brilliant success as has been attributed to her is source of qualification to her many friends at this aide of the Atlantic.
