How he Meets His Juliet, What She

Laying the Foundation Of
|, Love Affair.

The Bowery Johnnie, like most other
New York institutions, is an original
product. You see his like nowhere else.
He came into existence with the advent
OF the travelling burlesque companies
which have dominated the cheap va
riety theaters for the last ten years, and
his development has been rapid.
Like his Broadway brother, says the
New York Sun, the Bowery Johnnie may

hair parted in the middle, patent leath-
or shoes and the Bowery's latest cut suit

Ing as he is to be fat and bald headed.
The female members of Bowery
burlesque companies are not always de-

Naturally. an easy method OF intro
ducion is to send the charmer note. not
sloppy note. but usually very much to
the point. A few years ago a minor
pugilist whose reputation was based on
the fact that he had defeated a man who
was once the sparring partner of box
er who was whipped by Terry McGov-
ern, sent one of these notes to a chorus
girl, who was mean enough to show II
around. This is what 1t contained:

Wore Mustache After Death,

1t Is well known that human hair
grows after death. This was convinc-
ingly demonstrated to a young widow
in Liverpool. She attended a spiritual
istic seance and in dim light was
shown the specter of her husband. She
embraced the specter, found him to be
rather warm and substantial for a
ghost and rapturously kissed him Then
she made the discovery that although
I'm life cher Jim" always had a closely
shaver face. he now wore luxuriant
mustach.

RENEWING III BODY.
This Way Man II Constantly Being

II takes but four weeks to completely
renew the human cpidermis. You have
new cyclashes every five months, you
shed your finger nails In about the

Worlds Fair Notes

The National Creamerymen's asso
citation has been assigned Oct. 25 al
its day at the worlds fair.
There are more than a hundred
buildings on the forty-acre Filipino re
servation at the worlds fair.
A fine collection of boomerangs from
Australia is one Of the latest additions
to the exhibits at the worlds fair.
Automobiles are used in collecting
the mail from the eighty-four mail and
package boxes on the worlds fair
grounds.
A working model OF the Vienna
filtering plant, said to be one of the
most efficient in the world, is shown
in the Model street at the worlds fair.
The Vienna school of artists as Sc
c~essionists' has installed an exhibit
in the Australia pavilion at the worlds
fair. The work Of these artists, while
being severely criticized by orthodox
artists. presents many points Of inter
est and Is sure to attract much cur
ious attention.
"Borax Bill" and his mule wagon
outfit from Death valley have arrived
at the worlds fair and taken up their
abode in the mining gulch. Bill, whose
right name Is William Parkinson, is a
celebrated character in the far west.
having spent more than twenty years
In plotting caravans across Death val
ley, the most desolate section in
America.
A clever installation idea in the
North Dakota section OF the palace of
agriculture at the worlds fair is the
exhibition of wheat and other grains
behind the plate-glass exterior Of the
posts In the fence surrounding the
Roosevelt ranch cabin. The grain is
poured into open spaces back OF the
glass.
a feature Of the outdoor display Of
the forestry. fish and game depart
ment at the worlds fair Il the Miss
ouri hunting lodge, where the wild
game and fish Of that state are Ell
hibited. A 2O0-foot pool occupies the
center Of the space on which angling
contests open to the public are held.
Surrounding the pool are cages of all
the wild animals known iii Missouri.

Uncommon Attraction.

Rose Coghlan and her splendid sup
porting company will appear al the
Duncan on Tuesday. May 10, in THE
Greatest Things in the Wordl,' a dra-
matte event Of genuine interest. Miss
Coghlan has established herself as
one of the most important stars on
the American stage, as an actress and
as an elocutionist; she will play the
part Of Virginia Bryant, a widow
whose efforts are directed entirely
towards the social and moral regener-
alton Of her Oldest son, who has in
herited a taste for drink from his
father. On the evening Of a fashion
able entertainment he appears in his
mothers ball room drunk. To con
ceal his degradation his mother COW
ers her W repulsion with an as
sumed gayety and by skilful assump-
tion hides the delinquency of her boy
until he comes to his senses. This
son has also raised a check given
him by his younger brothers guard
ian from $1,000 to $4,000. The guard.
ian, a stern Scotchman, insists upon
upon prosecuting the boy, but ulti-
mately relents and the mother finds
her happiness made doubly secure
by her " marriage and the knowl
edge that her son has overcome all
and is in a fair way to be-
come what she desires. 1.-The Great
est Thing in the World IS love. not
only the love of man for woman, but
that t%enderest, most universal love
So rarely depicted on the s~tage-the
love Of a mother for her children.
Miss Coghlan's supporting cast. pro
vided by Jules hurry, surpasses the
notably strong one OF last year when
she played "The Second Mrs. Tan.
queray" in a manner which establish
es her claims to be considered the
foremost exponent Of the art of acting

a GROWING THeE.
Two Things That Nature Invariably
Does 10 Protect II.

.2G4
Nature invariably does two things
when She tries to grow d tree-she
protects the bark from hottest sur.
shine and the roots from severe
changes of temperature. Both these
points are almost invariably overlook
I'd by man. Observe a maple or elm
Or birch as II shoots from the ground.
Its sides are clothed all the way with
small twigs unless removed by knife
or browsing. Any tree starting In an
open lot il thus protected from the
sun. Otherwise the extreme heat will
rupture cells, and the bark will dry
and split. As far as possible there
must be equal development Of cells on
oil sides Of the tree. But care OF the
roots Is even more important.
The feeding of a tree Is at unequal
depths, but most or 1t Is near the sur.
face. II the sun be allowed to strike
directly on the soil the finer rootlets
that do the fornging are destroyed,
and extreme droughts will affect tile
roots for a foot in depth. What IL
worse, the extreme changes or tenn.
p%erature also affect the tree and suck
Its life away. In some cases such
conditions are produced as ncourag
the development or fungi Or other enc.
mics to plant life. Nature guards
against this by laying down each all
tumn q layer Of leaves to mulch her
forests OF solitary pets.
