THE FARMER IN WINTER TIME.
Chief Occupations Are Feeding the
 Stock and Keeping Warm.

F. S. Martin in Harpers Magazine.
 The great steady winter jobs on an American farm in the north nowadays are feeding the stock and keeping warm. And keeping warm nowadays, means hauling coal. When 1 lived in the coun- try, it meant cutting wood It meant for our large family constant teaming day after day from the woods to the woodward and a wood-pile that must have covered a quarter of an acre. It meant, toward spring, the coming of men with a horsepower and buzz saw to cut firewood, and that was almost an interesting an operation as thrashing.
 There were other stirring days when the lake had frozen hard and the ice house was filled, involving ice cutting, and more teaming. ana more precarious hitchlng on behind loads and going back in empties. And early in the winter there was the momentous and gory kill ing of pigs. Oh. that was. indeed, stirring timei They killed a pig every second. no doubt in Chicago nowadays, but that is mere mechanical routine, With no quality of sport in 1t.
 There was nothing so very slow about the country winter in days as late as the ciyil> war. I suppose soapmaking, as domestic industry, Is as dead as house. hold spinning. In those times of wood fires and wood ashes all self-respectng families made soap Our family had an outstanding kitchen expressly for that

 Sunday seemed the favorite day for entertaining, theater and dinner parties being most popular on that day.
 The home of this dinner that l am de- scribing was most artistic, several of the rooms being fitted up in the Art Nouveau style, of which, l think, Ger many is the originator.
 We see the style there in it's simplicity and perfection.
 The ideal number, ten, were seated around the table, four different lam euages being spoken-German. English, French and Swedish. They could all un- derstand English and most of them spoke it fiuently.
 The table presented somewhat diff ferent appearance from ours.

dinner. They contain both white and red wine and you take your choice, us- ing it as we do water. Other wines of rare and unusual vintage were served during the course of the dinner as a spe- cial feature, the bottles being passed around, as it was something that could not be bought. Now, not being a con- naisseur, 1 can not tell of it's qualities
 The wine glasses, instead of being un- form in shape and color. were varied and in the beautiful colorings of the Bo- hemian glass were most artistic. The red wine being drank from a white glass while the Rhine wines were drunk from green glasses with longer stems and round bowl.
 The dinner was beautifully served in many courses, very much the same as ours. everything being passed on large silver dishes and most effectively gar nshed.
 Between the salad and sweet course, they passed around a large glass dish divided into compartments, in which were black bread and butter, radishes and different kinds of cheese

Whv Smith Left Home.

George Ober and a company of well known players will present George H. Broadhurst's successful comedy, Why Smith Left Home" at the Jefferson the atre tomorrow afternoon and night
 There are several good reasons Why Smith Left Home" as set forth in the comedy of that name. Love, blackmail, poor relations and the best of bad cooking conspire to drive MT. Smith from his domieile six months after the wedding, but he departs with his own true wife on a long-delayed honeymoon. Three acts re- plete with the funniest kind of compli- cations keep the audience chuckling un- til compelled to bid a reluctant goodbye to the smiling Smith.
 Almost from the day of his marriage an epidemic of people related to Mrs. Smith invite themselves to the house with their baggage and forget to go away. Relief comes at last in the person of a cook lady who belong to the union.
 The company contains many clever peo- pie, including Miss George Elliot, Miss Adelaide Elliot, Miss Adelaide Ober, Miss Josephine Sherwood, Miss Sallie Saxon, Richard Cochrane Roland A. Osborne, William Welp. Charles N. Kinsley, J. Graham Murphy and others.
 The same company will give special bargain day matinee tomorrow afternoon.

The Silver Slipper.

"The Silver Slipper John C. Fishers
 latest musical comedy success which will be the attraction at the Jefferson theatre on Thursday night will be found to be altogether superb from a spectacular point of view. 1t brlstles with tuneful
 music, hilarity and comedy, and one event of interest follows so closely on
 the heels of its predecessors that the audiences are kept on the qui vive. This
 charming musical play is by the authors
 of "Florodora,' owen Hall being respon-
 sibe for the book, Leslie Stuart for the
 music, and w. H. Risque for the lyrics. The book was re-arranged for the Am erican stage by Clay NJ. Greene, who has infused comedy and American wit and humor into Halls story of the play.
 Musically "The Silver Slipper" is partcu- larly strong, there being twenty-five num- , bers in all. The majorities of these were
 composed by Leslie Stuart, though sev- >eral numbers that quickly became popu- lar were interpolated. Of the interpo-
 lated numbers, Sam Collins topical song,
 Then I'd Be Satisfied With Life;' Ger ] trude Millingtons "The Girl You Love, sentimental ditty; and the tenor solo of
 Horace Wright entitled "Tessie, You Are the Only Only, Only" scored instan- taneous hits.
 There is a sextette similar to the Pretty Mdluen SeNtette that audeu lo nucn to the fame of "Florodora" The new sextette
 is called Come, Little Girl" It is pretty and tuneful and is even more elaborately staged than the former.
 'The Silver Slipper" comes with the en- { dorsement of a six months run at the
 Broadway theatre. The complete produc-
 tion in every detail headed by Snitz Ed
 wards, Gertrude Millington, Fred Run
 nells, Harry B. Burcher, Virginia Palmer, Nannette Thulon, Lora Lieb and the orig
 inal six English dancers who take part in the Champagne Dance" will be seen dur
 ing this engagement.

Marie WainWriuht.

Shakespeares Twelfth Night" will be presented at the Jefferson next Saturday afternoon and night by Miss Marie Vain wright and company of competent ac- tors. Miss W ainwright has played Shakes perian roles for a number of years and has achieved much success. She has in- terpreted the character of Ophela Desdemona, Lady Macbeth, Rosalind Cordelia and Portia. In each she receiv- ed unstinted praise. Her favorite part, however, Is Viola in Twelfth Night" In Miss Wainwrights treatment of the part the refinement of Viola triumphs over her masculine attire This comedy is one of the bard's best efforts and Miss Wainwright is a charming figure in boys attire

Manager Douglas has contracted for the appearance of Jerome Sykes in his spec tacular musical farce, "The Millionaire" '" at his playhouse in the near future The universal verdict has been that Harry B. Smith and Gus Kerker have afforded MT. Sykes in 'The Millionaire" admirable opportunities for the display of his tai- ents as funmaker, and in the character of John Doe he has scored a triumph even greater than the success he attained in Foxy Quiller" Messrs. Klaw & Erlan- ger have staged "The Billionaire' in the most elaborate manner. The New York cast and pro- uction will be in evidence

capacity of the Wells houses in Norfolk Richmond and Atlanta. and comes to us from the latter place with the highest en- dorsements of both press and public
 The play has many startling and novel situations. No money has been spared by the management. The most striking feature is, perhaps, the illustration of the dry goods store in which the scenes are producted in a very natural manner; the pecularities of the sales counters with the attending hustle and hustle; the cash girls running hither and thither, and the salesladies waiting pleasantly upon their customers, are said to be very graph ically depicted This same scene gives great scope for clever comedy work. Es pecially funny are the incidents follow ing the accidental placing of a bottle of whisky in the ice cooler where it breaks. The beverage Is tasted by the customers who are more than pleased to be stimu lated so unexpectedly. and at a time when their nerves are somewhat overwrought with the excitement of shopping.

Mary Mannering.

At the Jefferson theatre Tuesday even- ing will be presented new comedy from the pen of Clyde Fitch. It is called The Stubborness of Geraldine" and will serve as the seasons welcome of the playgpers of Birmingham to Mary Mannering, whose sJanice Meredith placed her among the favorites of this city's playgoers. In the new play, which was one of the most pro- found successes of the season in the east, she will appear as an American girl. an orphan who has been educated abroad in consequence of the disinclinaton of her guardian uncle to take personal charge of her. On his death she returns to her native country where she is followed by a Hungarian nobleman who has fallen in love with her at a ball in Buda Pesth. This young man is unlucky enough to have brother who is an all around scamp, and confusion of identity be- tween them leads to complications which, thanks to the stubborness of the heroine, sce finally smoothed away.
 The plot is as simple as the sentiment f the play is pure, but it is ilumin- ated by the cleverness of Clyde Fitch at his best, and the play comes here with the endorsement of being one of the most entertaining pictures of American social life at the present day.
