woman is only one of many. Dozens
may be counted in the streets dressed
with such careless disregard for their
health They wear fur boas about their
necks and are otherwise warmly clad,
which indicates that they could well af-
ford warmer footwear.
According to a well-known doctor of
the city. who was questioned on the
subject, warm covering for the feet is
very essential to good health in cold or
wet weather. This same authority says
that bad colds, lung trouble and a whole
train of ills may be traced back to lew
shoes and lace stockings in cold
weather. Furthermore, thinly clad feet
cure red noses and red hands even in
the house, and this probably will go
farther than anything else to break mp
this silly custom.

keeper only rinses out the bottle, as
the dealer is supposed to thoroughly
clean and sterilize the vessel before
it is used again.
Whether or not he did this it would
not seem to ba so difficult to deter
mine. If he does not thoroughly cleanse
the bottle. the milk placed in it would
become contaminated and such con-
tamination is readily noticed. Should
this occur very often, the dealer is apt
to lose a customer. Knowing this. Il
is to his own interest to keep his bot
ties pure and clean.

PLAYS AND PLAYERS

storm scene is the most realistic ever
produced upon any stage. In the COM
pany are Miss Justina Wayne, Miss
Carrie Thomas, Miss Sue Seymour.
Miss Cora Aroell and little Geraldine
Trip.
The achievement Of equalling the
best musical production that ever re-
ceived its laurels on the theatrical via
triumphalis, the broadway Of New
York, is attained by the Sons of
Ham" Williams and Walkers char
acteristic and typical play. An
abundance of sweet songs are inter
woven in the play and form one of the
principal features. It's powerful chorus
in which the harmony of forty cul-
tured voices is brought to a delightful
symphonical treat, its endless number
of original dances and picturesque
groups, its many startling and bewild-
ering scenes that reflect their hrilli-
ancy in an ocean of splendor and the
countless devices Of stage mechanism
form details to one of the most magni-
ficent productions, that ever entered
this city. "Sons of Ham" comes to
Grand Opera House this afternoon and
night.
The Philadelphia Orchestra gave the
first of a series Of three concerts at
the Opera House last might and 1t
proved a rare musical treat. The or
chestration was much stronger than
last year, the heavier instruments be-
ing placed at the rear. which gave a
sweeter, more harmonious effect The
selections were of a high order and ex-
quisltely interpreted by the musicians.
| Mrs Marie Kunkle Zimmerman was
the soloist. She has a beautiful so
prano voice, which never was heard
to better advantage than last night
The audience was as enthusiastic over
the orchestra as a Wilmington audi
ence ever is, and in view of this fact
the reception given to Mrs. thinner
man was remarkable, she being re-
called four times. Fritz Schesl is lead
er OF the orchestra.

Of that popular play last evening

which the thoroughbred tramp is
Johnny on the spot with his fun
or gun-and everything comes
right in the end, down in the rob-
ber's cave just when the plot is
thick enough to curdle. The play,
while lacking nothing in continu-
ity, affords opportunities for sew
eral speciaities, of which the fullest
advantage is taken.
Miss Helen Myrtle, a winsome
little soubrette, sings the latest
eastern hits with fetching grace
that brings round upon round Of
applause. T. Rush Thompson,

sented with an amount Of rollick-
