PLAYS AND. PLAYERS

The proud man in whom self-esteem runs
TO excess is probably among the happiest,
for he never doubts his capacity or worth.
But the really able man who has moder-
ate measure Of self-esteem and tries to
1--we up Ito the standard he acts before him
self. Is more to be envied. That this is
true, and to show It clearly has been the
aim Of Hal Reid IN his latest play. "A
Wife's Secret" which William T. Keogh
will produce here ait the Lyceum Theatre
May is, 10 and 20. Containing all the ele-
ments of a popular play the story has
been so deftly wrought out that its melo-
dramatic and sensational tone does not
jar harshly on the sensitive ear. No ex-
pense has been spared to make the pro-
duction a great success. Special scenery
is carried and an exceptionally capable
cast is engaged presenting the play,
headed by Hal Reid and Bertha Bella
Westbrooke.

MASTER BUILDERS NOW
WANT TO ORGANIZE

New York, May 13.-The most i'm
portant developments In the strike
situation was the expressed determi-
nation Of the Building Trades Asso-
citation, composed of the most promi-
nent concerns in the building business
in Manhattan and the Bronx, and of
the Iron League, which includes most
of the employers of iron workers in
this vicinity, to combine for united
and aggressive action against the de-
mands of the labor organizations. The
governors of the Building Trades AS
sociation met and practically decided
to form a union similar to the labor
unions. AS a result, the following let
ter, signed by the president, was sent
out to every labor employer engaged
in building in Manhattan and the
Bronx, numbering between 1000 and
5000:
"The time has arrived when en-
ployers of labor in the building trades
are facing a serious situation. and a
meeting will be held on Friday, May
Is, at 8 p. m, at the Building Trades
Association. for the purpose of deter.
mining what steps shall be taken to
remedy the present intolerable condi-
tions. You are earnestly requested to
be present"
The trades to be affected have a
membership Of more than 100000 men
Most Of these are already out Of work
either through the lockout of the driv-
ers by the masters OF their own
strikes.

Shoulder Cane the Newest

The most noticeable modes of the
moment are the shoulder cape, cut on
the round of the stuff. and the bell
sleeves, trimmed with multitudinous
frilis inside Of the hem. these frills
being made Of muslin, net, or lisse, or
lace. They are reminiscent Of the
furbelows which delighted ones great
grandmothers, and though, perhaps,
not entirely convenient, are, without
doubt, absolutely graceful. Grace
should be the keynote Of all clothes
soft, clinging stuffs, and satins and
chiffons, and long folds-and the sug-
gestion rather than the revelation Of

Rings on Her Toes

Probably there are some women
who are considering the advisability Of
wearing rings on their toes, instead Of
the bells of childhood lore. This is all
due TO the action of the Princess
Hortzfeldt at a fancy dress ball. given
by Mrs. Adair, in London, night before
last. The pretty young Princess i'm
personated Queen Esther and wore a
marvellous Oriental gown, and a gor-
geous bejewelled headdress. To COM
plete the costume she wore sandals,
while her toes blazed with rings after
the ancient Eastern fashion.

Tendency of the ,Ilmes

The tendency OF medical science is
toward preventive measures. The bes,
thought of the world is icing given to
the subject. 1t Is easier and better to
prevent than to cure 1t has been
fully demonstrated that pneumonia,
one of the most dangerous diseases
that medical men have to contend
with, can be prevented by the use OF
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. I'Leu-
monia always results from cold or
from an attack of lLiluenzi grip and
it has been observed that this remedy
counteracts any tendency of these di-
seases toward pneumonia. This has
been fully proven IN many thousands
of cases III which this remedy has
been used during the great prevalence
of colds and grip in recent years, and
can be relied upon with implicit con-
fidence. Pneumonia often results
from slight cold when no danger is
apprehended until it is suddenly dis
covered that there is fever and Difficult

has pneumonia. BE on the safe side
