the country by using a limited
circulation magazine. Therein
lies the fallacy Of trying only one
publication when the circulation
does not warrant it. For in
stance, you might use a publiea-
ton with 10000 circulation,
and results would not amount to
much; you would be obliged to
take seven more like it, at least,
to equal the circulation Of The
LADIES HOME JOURNAL. and
then about half Of the space used
would be a duplication, which
means expensive advertising.
If you use THE LADIES HoME
JOURNAL you get a circulation OF
more than 100000 without any
duplication, which reaches as
many readers as five or six Of the
best-known magazines of the
country.
ltis quality and quantity, and
not quantity alone, that fixes the
advertising value Of any publica-
ton, and it is just in quality and
quantity of circulation that The
LADIES HONE JOURNAL excels
all magazines.

THE sTROLLERs ARE sTR0LLING.
Mighty SLOW Pace at the First Rehearsal
Some Scenes and incidents.

The Strolers Of the Strollers' Club are
on on their hrst annual Stroll Instead OF

this Stroll is to be a week long And not
only ia the enterta inment moro pretentious
than any yet undertaken, but Its light viii
not be hidden under bushel. The friends
of the Strollers, as we'll as the Strollers them
selves, are invited.
A dress rehearsal was given yesterday
afternoon for the benefit Of the press. and
few impecunious friends who might balk
at the IS tickets we're entertained also
The rehearsal began at 3 o'clock and ended
at something after I. The delay was due
to tho enthusiasm of the audience. which
insisted on cncores to many Of the inter-
polated numbers.
The entertainment is made up Of vaude-
vile In two acts, entitled Round Herald

Strollers John L. Golden and Rupert Hughes
In the second act is presented "an original
dramatization Of bale Of hay. entitled
The Wiz that Waz,' book by Mr.. Golden
and introducing original music by Stroller
Gustave A. Kerker.
Round Herald Square" is not entirely
new. but has been dressed up with new
music and jokes. Its plot centres around
the troubles of Dick Outdrdwn a comic
artist, who has displeased his employer,
Borden bennett, by drawing really funny
mediate superior. that his services will not
be required after the stroke of twelve on the
big clock. Matches Mary produces some
magic matches which bring to life. the
bronze Minerva and the two bronze black
smiths. Outdrdcns efforts to keep the
blacksmiths from going hack to their places
makes up the rest of the skit.
Here are samples of the new jokes. which,
as is alleged, have taken the place OF the
old ones

Ted Marks's benefit concert at the Metro.
politan Opera House last night was a rather
tame affair. but that was not Markss fault
The programme he advertised last week
contained the names OF half dozen lively
performers. but they did not appear. They
were ready and willing. but Marks would
not allow them. That versatile manager
says the curtailment Of his bill was all due
to the Actors Church Alliance.
Manager Heinrich Conried rented the
opera house to Marks for last night Early
in the week Marks put out his advertising
and his posters showed that he intended
to give a costly vaudeville show. Now,
to give such show, manager must wink
at the Sabbath law. which prohibits dancing
costumes and changes of scenery on the
stage. Marks couldn't very well give the
show he advertised without forgetting
the law. Accordingly, he went ah cad
Barney Pagan and Johnny Ford. dancers;
William Everhardt, the hoop roller, and
several others.
In the latter part Of last week the direc-
tors of the opera house began to take notice
Of the propGSed tSs Sunday dor nshht oSnee s
ance called their attention to his programme.
At any rate the directors notified Manager
Conried that they looked to him to zee that
the Sunday law was not violated in the city's
home of opera. II is said that in Mr. Conried's
contract with the directors of the opera
house he distinctly agrees to rent the build
ing on Sunday nights only for instrumental
and vocal concerts.
When Herr Conried's attention was
thus drawn to the Marks concert he got a
copy OF the programme IN haste. He saw
thereon certain names which would have
to be eliminated II the law was to be kept,
and he told Marks 80 and said he would
like to cancel the contract. Marks wouldn't
cancel the contract. but he agreed to live
up to the wishes Of the opera house
Manager Conried attended the perform
ance last night and found that Marks bad
kept his word. Secretary Dodge of the
Metropolitan Opera House Real Estate
Company was there, too. and couldn't see
any violation Of the Law. Neither could
the plain clothes men who were sent there
for the same purpose by Capt. Cottrell Of
the Tenderloin station.
On Satu rday Capt. Cottrell sent word to
Marks that he was in receipt OF a COM
munication from Commissioner McAdoo,
which the Actors Church Alliance had
quarters: The Church Alliance folks i'm
portuned MIR. McAdoo to see that the Law
was not violated at the concert. Marks
informed Cottrell that he could rest easy,
for he would not violate the law.
The. people who went to the, concert

gramme had been cut some OF them became
very angry. A few got their money back.

Stitch had the body inferred in the back
ward Of his Brownsville residence and

Early yesterday morning one Of Stitch's
friends from Staten Island rushed into
tho bowling alley and shouted: Say.
Stitch, Alderman's alive. / saw him this
morning wild bloke leading him by rope.
Der dog knew me.
Stitch Immediately gathered a few OF
his friends and they were not long in reach
inn Staten Island. They surrounded the
dog fancier's house and found Alderman
sa}e and sound in the rear OF a stable. The
dog fancier was nowhere to be seen, and
Stitch carried the dog back in triumph
to the East Side.

given in it's entirety If the Actors Churc h
Alliance had not complained to the owners
of the opera house and the police that
was going to violate the law That is the
reason several well known performers
have been unable to appear have added
several other names to the bill, but you will
have to be satisfied with singing, talking
and instrumental acts.
The crowded house cheered the manager.
He stopped long enough counting up the
receipts later to say

Every one knows the concert law is vio-
lated every Sunday, but I'm not the first
