Miss Adelaide Thurston, the
dainty star of "At Cozy Corners,
suffered an attack of paralysis in
the right hand and arm while play
ing in Bellefontaine, Ohio, 18th inst.
She was greatly Alarmed and pro-
ceeded through her part with great
difficulty, being unable to lit her
hand. Miss Thurston has been Civ
ing informal receptions on the stage
to her audiences after the perfor
mances. Hundreds of people have
accepted the opportunity to shake
hands with the charming little &C
tress. Physicians say that her af-
fiction Is due to the vigorous hand
shaking she has experienced, and
have advised suspension oil the
reception feature of her engage
ments.
MISS Thurston AYERS that she will
continue coming into personal con
tact with her audiences, even if she
has to greet her admirers with her
left hand.
When Charles Frohman desired to
send 1.-THE Little Minister" on the
road, he was put to considerable trou-
BILE to find a suitable actress to succeed
Miss Maude Adams. His choice fell
on Adelaide Thurston. That Miss
Thurston gave abundant satisfaction
when featured by Mr.. Frohman in
ssThe Little Minister" is evidenced by
the fact that the business OF the COM
pany which she headed was Of huge
proportions in every city where she
appeared. The season following this
Miss Thurston played Madge Chisel-
hurst with Mrs. LeMoyne ia "'The
Greatest Thing in the World"
THE production of sat Cozy Cor
ners' on Friday night is to be one o.
the finest things we have seen here
for long time. The play is one of the
sweet wholesome kind OF plays that
make ue all feel better.

A Pirate In PetticoatS.

In A Detached Pirate" little, Brown
d Coz, by Helen Milecete, we have an in
genious and an entertaining story, told in
series OF letters. These are written to
friend by young woman who has just been
divorced. She sets forth to seek advent
ure in the world, with 60 900 in cash, some
stunning clothes and pot of rouge. to be
drawn upon in case of necessity. She
described herself as a pirate to her friend
and correspondent.
"The career Of the black pirate has begun.
I don't want to kill any one, as pirates al
ways do. only want little joy. believe
pirates only become such because they are
bored and dull and lonely, and like the
fun of chasing ships, not the horror of
plundering them and killing the men when
caught. And who am going to chaser"
As a matter of fact, she proves to be
an entirely amiable and attractive pirate,
and her career is an altogether blameless
one. She does not chase any one, though
she herself is chased with varying degrees
of ardor, by several men. Hers Is no
record Of gruesome crime upon the seas,
with keelhaulings and NARROWING and
walking OF the plank, and beetle-browed
gentlemen with cutlasses and tarry pig
tails and the Jolly Roger flying over all.
Instead Of these orthodox materials Of the
good old piratical romance we have the adj
ventures Of the divorced young woman
incorporating in society as single girl
She is good to look upon and she has
nimble wit, and the story of her entangle-
ments with an assortment Of admirers is
amusing and distinctly worth while.

This is just little misleading 1t is indeed
a dramatic story, but 1t is also story OF a
careful and nice literary quality. 1t Is a
tale of the Revolution. The scene centres
in the house of Benjamin Chew, a charming
house called "Cliveden," on the German
town road. At the battle of Germantown
the British made fortress Of this house.
Mrs. Rowland says at is hoped that the
descendants Of the illustrious Chews will
have patience with the mythical Murrays
who were inside this memorable house. at
the time of the great battle, and endured
the excitement and stress Of the conflict
The reader will have the kindest feelings
for the Murrays, whatever may be the case
with the descendants of the Chews. We
do not hesitate to say that Margaret Murray
seems to US to have been all that the ex-
cellent Capt. Peyton Of the British Army
thought her, though to say that is to say
good deal. Margaret showed her quality
when the British came after her rebel
brother who bore intercepted letters from
Lord Howe. She showed it on many occa-
sions afterward.
But we shall not undertake even to sug-
gest the numerous matters Of interest in
the story. An unusually well-written
story, and one that the reader will be bound

In his several chapters the philosopher
considers the advantage Of loneliness, and
discourses Of books, doctors, idealism,
language, government. the search for sat
faction and the release from pain. He
employs irony when he comes to speak
OF the study of foreign languages. He
says: @You should study French, Italian,
Spanish, and few other languages: for
you may go some day to one Of the countries
in which these languages are spoken, and
want to order a meal and hear the waiter
laugh at your French or German or what
ever it happens to be. You will never
learn to speak foreign language like
native, and as well as you should be able
to speak your own, unless you go to the
country of that language and stay there
for life-and not even then unless you are
the one example In thousand exceptions.
But you may learn enough Of the foreign
language to betray your nationality by
speaking it, and you will also pick up
few phrases which you can conveniently
throw into anything you happen to write
when you do not know exactly what you
want to say. These phrases will look well
and will have all the charm OF the unknown
to the majority Of your readers Thus
does our philosopher sheer at a delight Of
scholars. But We hardly look for an utter
overthrow Of the linguists from this. 'Es
muss auch solche kduze sein.' We beg the
essa yist's pardon.
