During the past several months the
editor of this department has received
many communications from dairymen
saying. in substance, that the oleo law,
is in force, did not seem to improve
matters much, SO far as dairy interests
were concerned. Investigation shows
that this is true and also discloses
the reasons why. The law as It now
appears on the statutes provides that
if cleo Is artifcially colored SO as to
represent butter the manufacturer
shall pay a tax of 10 cents q pound
on his output. If not colored artif-
cially mote the word artiticially), then
the tax shall be IA Of cent pound.
Manufacturers have shrewdly found
way around the law by using In
gradients which give the product a
cream color sufficiently like butter.
especially during the winter, to pass
readily for the genuine article. 1t is
an open question whether Or no the
ingredients used to obtain this color
make the product more desirable as a
food. The main fact is that no arti-
hc1al coloring is used and hence the
spirit Of the law is nullified The only
| apparent way out Of the difficulty
would seem to be to amend the law
so that it would be a misdemeanor for
oieo to be colored in any way SO that
! it approached the color Of butter. 1t is
to be regretted that the amendment
proposed when the bill was under dis
| cussion. namely, that oleo be colored
some shade that would absolutely
| identify it, could not have been passed.
The matter as it now stands Is a seri-
Gus one for dairymen and they should
get in communication with their Con-
gressmen SO that some way may be
found~of properly and thoroughly pro-
tecting dairy interests.

Vaudeville Notes.
INTERESTING LITTLE sQUIBs OF
PRESENT AND COMING ATTRAC
TIONs AT KEITH S NEW
CHESTNUT STREET THE
ATRE.


Rosa Naynon' educated birds
will soon be at Keith's. There are
about seventy birds in this act CON
sisting chiefly of Australian and
East Indian cockatoos, African and
South American macaws and East
Indian paroqueetes.
DR.. John Bowker, whose instruc-
tive and intensely interesting trav-
elogues have been a we'll known
and popular feature of vaudeville
during the past few years, has just
completed a new lecturette, which
he will shortly produce on the
Keith circuit, coming to Philadel-
phia early in January. His petit
lecture OIL "The Passion PLAY of
Oberammergau, was last season
highly commended by the local
press and clergy and pronounced
one of the most beautiful acts ever
given on an American stage, so DIR.
Bowker's new act is being looked
forward to with eagerness,
Midgely and Carlisle, two of the
most popular favorites in vaude-
vile, are booked to appearat Keith s
soon, presenting one of their laugh
able "Sam and Sarah" sketches,
which always find favor with Keith
patrons.
The famous Holloway trio, ad-
mittedly the most marvellous and
daring wire performers in the world,
will reappear at Keith's this week,
after a three years absence, intro
ducing their startling gravity defy
ing cake-walk in midair.
c. E. Billings, the young Bcs-
ton Lyceum entertainer, who is
making his local debut at Keith's
this week, is meeting with unquali-
fed success. There is an original
ity about all of Mr.. Billings mater
ial that is really refreshing, and his
manner of delivery is marked by
an individuality which places him
among the foremost monologue
comedians of the day. His catchy
little character songs But They
Don't Do Things like That Down
in Maine" and Wasn't That
Funny Coincidence" which never
fail to bring out shouts oflaughter,
are from his own prolific pen, which
has also produced several other
song hits, among which are The
Lily and the Dew, which was the
big song hit of The Show Girl"
Mr.. Billings is at present at work
upon two new songs to be used in
The Show Girl, and two mono
logues for we'll known vaudeville
artists. His song writing and Ly-
ceum work keeps this clever young
man so busy that it is doubtful if
will hold him for long,
vaudeville agents and
are holding out to him
every inducement to remain in that
field in which his success has been
so immediate and tremendous.
The act of Leon Morris educa-
ted comedy ponies, which occupies
second place on the Keith bill this
week, will prove somewhat of
From human performers
such an intensely interesting act
night be expected but hardly from
lumb animals. These marvellous
squines do everything but talk.
The animals are exceptionally
and far more intelligent
han any ever exhibited on a stage.
They are controlled marvelously
~ Mr.. Morris and respond unerr-
ngly to his every command, doing
heir several tricks with such an
:vident air of enjoyment that the
audience enjoys the act even more.
Their comedy wrestling is one of
he cleverest things in the animal
inc vet seen on anV stage.
