SCALP MASSAGE IS PoPrrIAR

me new method of making inc hair nuIIy, and, what is yet more ilnportont lnanageable-namely, by massage--;s gaming converts daily. The straight est ana stiffest locks may, by this method, become graceful.
 All that is needed is willing and ac- tlve nnger tips, which. once a day at least, and, if possible, oftener. will lightly knead the scalp at the temples and forehead until the hair is in that state of fluff admired by all, but DOS sessed naturally, alas, by few. There is really no art nor mystery about the process. Moreover, anyone can do it for herself.
 The result Is just the the same as that once supposed to be attainabla only from shampooing, but it is much more satisfactory. For days after a shampooing the hair is unmanageable; massage makes it. but the more un- manageable, shampooing, too, must not be indulged in often. A daily mas sage of the scalp edges. where the hair is liable to become thin, is bene- ficial in the highest degree to the health of the hair and of the skin. T When you see q woman nowadays whose otherwise strGaSht hair f1uffs not artifcially but becomingly about her face in way to recall the French saying that .The ugliest woman may be made beautiful if she but know how to comb her hair,v you may know that such woman is indulging in daily scalp massage.

the book, and at once proceeded to SC lect the players for the support of the star. The brilhancy of Mir Thomp- sons tale and it's adaptability for stage presentation, together with Miss Harned's individual sympathy with the heroine of the story, seemed to have warranted the conviction of it's theatrical sponsors that its new sphere as a play has been well chosen. The thorough American spirit of the story was another element in its favor for stage production. How thoroughly MT Frohman's judgment in regard to his star and the dramatic possibilities of the novel have been confirmed is at, tested by the long and brilliant run at the Garden theater, New York, which closes tonight, and the double success of star and play in Boston and the few other cities in which they have been presented. Miss Harmed in tte title role has won a signal personal triumph fully equal to her great achievement as 'Trilby" a few sea
 sons ago. The production is MT Froh- mans big effort in this direction this season. In picturesque beauty, novel and original color and light effects il has rarely been equalled on the Amer
 ican stage. The sale of seats is now on at 9, 50. 75 cents, $1 and $1.50.

PERFORMANCE AT poLrs.

Waterbury was never backward when called upon to assist in any de- serving undertaking. and that was more than emphasized by the way Polls theater was crowded at the two performances given yesterday for the benefit of Mount St Joseph's convent of Hartford. The entertainment was grand one and not alone because of the object for which 1t was given did 1t deserve the attendance it received. Every number on the program with possibly the exception of the work of the leading lady was meritorious one and the audience was surprised and more than pleased For the past few weeks the Waterbury public has been told that the artists who had been se- cured for this entertainment were only the very best obtainable. vet tha peo- pie never expected such a delightful entertainment nor such clever people It Is Just as clever and excellent vaudeville company as has eyer ap- peared ill any of the local theaters. In whatever other cities in this stata thar they appear they should receive the unanimous appreciation of the peonle of that city. Johnson and Wells in coon songs and dances, and Grant and Ray, musical comedians. gave two very pleasing numbers Miss Atalie Claire. who was heralded as the lead Ing lady. was not pleasing to those present. Miss Florence Bindley, how ever, more than made up for that loss. and her act pleased the people so well that they could scarcely let her retire. Her number was one of the best fea- lures of the entertainment Miss Maud Beall Price, monologist, and AL exander Wilson, ventriloquist, gave ex. ceilent numbers which pleased those in attendance. A sketch entitled Her Uncle's Niece" by Miss Julia Kingsley and Nelson Lewis. created q lot of in
 terest and received much appreciation. The brothers Llltz, one of them with out arms. performed some wonderful feats. and the armless wonder is wonder surely. His feet take the place or his hands and he can use them al- most as well as q person with the most expert hands and fingers. In fact if uld not seem that there was anything ne could not do, playing on instru- ments. hammering and drawing nails. saving wood and shooting accurately. The whole concluded with q remarka- Die performance by troupe of Jap- anese acrobats. Marvellous was their work. and when one of the ascended rom the stage to the gallery on 2 tlght rope and slid down again inc neo- pie were satisfied to go home know. 1ng that they had witnessed 2 very good performance.

 s"The Climbers" which will be pre- scented under the direction of Miss Amelia Bingham, Americas only ac- essmanager, on Thursday, February 4. at Poli'S theater, contains q number of incidents that excited universal dis cussion among theatergoers in New York last season. One much discussed episode occurs at the opening of the play The rise of the curtain shows the removal of some funeral stools from drawing room, and immediately afterward the return of the black-clad widow, sister and daughters of the dead master of the household from his burial. MT. Fitch has made a marriage the subject of satirical humor in 'sThe Moth and the Flame" He IS equally successful in making of the sombre episode an amusing scene il- luminative of the heartlessness of some members of the fashionable set in New York.
 l:
 On the occasion of Charles Froh- mans initial production of 'Alice Of Old Vincennes'', with Virginia Harmed in the title role at Cleveland recently, an extraordinary incident transpired wholly without precedent in theatrical annals. On the fall of the curtain on the third act there were several calls for both Miss Harmed and the author After Miss Harmed had come forward and bowed her acknowledgement, Mf Rose, the dramatist, appeared and made a short speech, in the course or which he eulogized the late President Mckinley, toward whose monument the gross receipts of the evening were to be given. MT. Rose next referred to the dead novelist to whom he ex- pressed himself as altogether indebted for the inspiration of the dramatlza- fion then ill performance. In an adiacent box, i'll deep mourning, sat the widow of the novelist and her fam ily, much affected by MT Roses words. On the return of Mir. Rose behind the curtain, the mucicians in the orchestra all stood up and at once began to play "Nearer My God, to Thee" the entire audience silently rising with almost the first bar and on the last note as rever. ently resuming their seats, many or them in tears, even the men among the number. It was an episode as remark able as it was pathetic, and certainty The first time that an air of so reilg- ious and reminiscent a nature had ever been incorporated into public enter rainment. with a whole audience as the serious actors.

LUXURY OF NEW YORK CLUBS.
Ease With Which Money Was Raised
70 at Ixafi

Ease with winch money was RAISED
to Complete an Unfinished Ceiling.
That money is always at hand to
contribute to the luxury of New York
clubs is known, but the experience of
one organization shows how much cas-
Ter it is to raise large sums than one
might suppose.
In one of the handsomest as we'll as
newest of New York clubhouses the
ceiling in one room had never been
decorated. When the clubhouse was
opened, two or three years ago, it was
decided to allow the detail of the dec
orations to await the further consider
alton of the architects.
1t was finally decided to copy for
this room the ceiling of a famous apart
ment in Rome. 1t was estimated that
the expense of the work would be
about $25 900, as it would be necessary
to send to Rome an artist who will do
the work there.
The sum was large, in view of the
great amount already spent to decorate
the clubhouse. Before the call for
subscriptions was made on the club at
large, few members were asked if
they would not like to help the COM
mittee to make a good showing before
the call was posted in the club. When
the time came to call on the members
at large only $4,000 more was needed
The few men who were first appealed
to happened to be so prosperous that
the expense of the new ceiling was al
most met by their contributions alone.
