Miss Walsh was playing the title role of

That the elevation of mans apartments
should affect his longevity is a theory
somewhat startling An architect, how
ever, said yesterday that in this theory
there seemed TO be some degree OF truth.
''Korosi, the Hungarian hygienist." he
said, has made a study of the length of
life of persons living upon various floors.
He has found that the second floor is the
healthiest. The basement, cellar, is the
worst. The third floor is better than the
fourth, and the fourth is better than the
fifth KorosI found the average longevity
of basement families to be thirty-nine
years and four months. Easements are apt
to be damp, and germs propagate readily
there. The longevity of second-foor fam
lilies was forty-four years and two months.
Third-hoor families had a span of forty
two years and fourth-foor families forty
one years and seven months These OBJ
servations. you must understand, were
made in Hungary, where there are few ele-
vators. Korosi found life TO grow shorter
the higher up his families lived. on account
of this lack of lifts. 1t was excessive stair
climbing that made the trouble. The air
up high was drer and purer, but the stair
climbing weakened the heart The investi-
gator claimed that in a land of elevators,
like America, research would show that
the higher up people lived provided they
did no climbing, the longer their lives
would be-"

It Is not generally known that whom
Mr.. James A. Herne wrote "Shoro Acres"
l. was with view Of having tho play
produced at tho Boston Museum. He
had the great comedian. William Warren.
in his mind for tho character ofNathaniel
Berry and hoped no would himself be
allowed to play the part Of tho brother.
Martin Berry.
These facts about the original plans Of
MIR. Herne help to account for the very
truthful and interesting character Of
Martin Berry. 1t is but natural that an
aotor-dramatist who goes to natures
sources for his material should get just
little closer to the truth in developing a
character designed for his own interpre-
tation than in tho other parts Of his play.
Mr.. Herne. like many other discerning
critics. thought Mr.. Warren the greatest
comedian this country has yet produced
and he would have been only too happy
to have played second fiddle to this emf
nent actor. "Shore Acres" was eventu-
ally produced at the Museum. but it was
long after Warren's death and Mr.. Herne
played the star part. A fine scenic pro-
duotion Of this beautiful American classic
will be at the Grand Opera House on

In your issue OF January 9th you say
that We arc opposed To associations. We
do not understand how you received such
an impression. Certainly nothing in our
correspondence with any Of the growers
or associations last year would lead To
such conclusion. On tho contrary. we
arc strongly In favor OF tho association
when conducted on proper lines and con-
sfolled by tho producer. What we do
object to In associations Is for them 70 be
dominated by ndn-pfodueers.
We should Ike you 70 correct the i'm
preston given in your last issue. As Il
certainly does US an injustice. We arc
doing all we can for tho benefit Of tho
growers. and prefer. wherever Il 10 pos
sible. to make our deals through issoei-
atoms. bu, when we cannot reach Asso-
Citations then we handle for the grower
