The Joy OF Living" Suder-
H1ann's play, which was translated
into English for Mrs. Patrick
Campbell, is to be published in 4
leading American magazine. The
publishers announce the forthcom-
ing publication as coup in the
magazine line. The play is pro-
nGunced to be 3 really fine produc-
ton, both from a literary and a
dramatic point of view, which is
doubtless a true verdict. Never
theless leading newspapers of New
York have declared that it is not a
play for a pure woman to witness,
and hence a magazine which pub
fishes it should not be considered
Fl for any home reading table.

dHetion, yet few parents would place
il 5n the hands of immature chill
sren- The Joy of Living is infn-
itely worse than Dumas noted
work, as it pictures sin in respecta-
bic garb, and surrounds it with a
glamour of heroism and fascination.

broke all records in Texas journal

ever printed in the state. The issue
comprised seventy-siX pages, and
besides the usual complement Of
interesting news and miscellany, it
carried an enormous amount Of
advertising. The Post claims that
Il was the largest amount Of bus
Tness advertising ever carried by a
single paper in the South, being
rarely equalled by themetropolitan
papers of the largest Northern
cities. The advertising occupied
315 columns, and represented nearly

The issue required a full carload Of
