coincidence, Miss Isadore Rush. who
was last seen here in the original pro

was recognized as one of our best ex-

now starring Miss Rush in the Lon
! don comedy success "Glittering Gloll-

author of the "Belle of New York, y

partners, have made wager that be-

and there Immediately begins series
of episodes that causes an almost cpl
demic of interesting situations. JACK
James, young married man, a
friend of Gloria's in his bachelor days,
intends buying the necklace for her,
and goes to the shop with his friend,
Archie Toddleby, who is atlianced to
the friend of Jacks wife to make the

by the wife and sweetheart, and TO
explain matters, pretend they are
waiting fer n friend named Milliken
who intends to buy the necklace.

must produce a Milken. He sends
Archie out into Bond Street to endea-

him. He brings back a small rural
solicitor named Iebedee Poskett, who
had met Gloria at little supper the
night before ard would like to make
her little present on his own ac-
count. He tails into the Mllliken
scheme with adroitness, and not only
does he obtain possession OF the
necklace, but, Gloria arriving at that
moment, he presents it To her and
carries her off to luncheon. Later on

clever subterfuge the men are gotten
out Of the apartment, Al are next
heard of at the Euston station, and

tions ever seen in a comic opera axes
