Facts of Science.

1t is the rarest thing in the world for
a man to be necessarily bald. No man
whose hair Is not dead at the roots. need
be bald If he will use Newbros Herpi-
eide, the new scalp antiseptic. Herpi-
eide destroys the germ that cuts the hair
of at the root; and cleans the scalp of
dandruff and leaves it in a perfectly
healthy condition. Mr.. Mannett, in the
Maryland Block, Butte. Mont, was en-
tirely bald. In less than a month Herpl.
eide had removed the enemies of hair
growth, and nature did its work by COW
ering his head with thick hair an inch
long, and in six weeks he had a normal
suit of hair. Sold by leading druggists.

New Scheme for Prices

A curious theatrical question is under
discussion in the London papers-the
feasibility of a varying scale of prices,
according to the expensiveness of the
production and the number of people
in the cast. The argument advanced
is that when a comedy employing half
a dozen players is put on the prices
should be less than when the stage is
occupied by a spectacular show engag-
ing hundred actors and supernumera-
ries. Then again the scenery and cos
tunes for the small production are fire.
quently inexpensive, while for the
larger ones many thousands of dollars
must be invested to give the proper
setting. The managers of the London
theaters have not committed them
selves as to what they propose to do
in the matter for the coming season.
but they are very much alive to the
fact that little profit can be shown on
last winters business.

Roof Garden for London

London's first roof garden is to be
opened to the public next week. An
electric power company is financially
interested in the scheme, which does
not, however, contemplate theatrical
performances as part of the entertain
ment.
With the usual English conservatism,
the rules regarding the garden do not
permit of it's being open except be
tween sunrise and sunset" And, fur
thermore, it is only an engine room that
is rooted over, the garden" being but
eight feet above the street level.
Architecturally, however, the resort is
to be gem. and the floor space of 100
x250 feet will afford ample room for
fountains, shrubbery, etc.
In this garden Londoners will have
a taste of outdoor urban life, but as
the taste is likely to be very much di-
luted with fog and smoke, the expert
ment may possibly prove to be an ex-
pensive one for the projectors

Blanche Bates New Play

Poker players, attention! In her new
play Blanche Bates will show her audi
ences how full house may be extracted
from the stocking without unduly ruff
fling the temper of the player opposite,
who holds pat flush.
This little artifice occurs in what is
the big scene of "The Girl Of the Golden
West" Mr.. Belasco is making strenu-
Gus efforts to withhold the story Of the
play from the public, but Mr.. Belasco,
like other managers, cannot always
have his way in this respect.
The locale of the play is the far west
In the period of 1S49-51 THE Girl Of
the Golden West" played by Miss Bates.
is a young woman who receives as her
sole inheritance from her father his
gambling establishment. She accepts
the legacy in the spirit intended and
takes active charge of the place.
The hero, portrayed by Robert Hill
iard is under suspicion for crime, and
while sitting at one of the gambling
tables he learns of the sheriff's ap-
proach. He fees up stairs into the
room of female Garfield, and the lat
ter offers to play the sheriff game of
freeze-out with the hero as side stake.
The game begins and luck favors the
officer. Fortune shifts to the woman,
the game grows more exciting and
finally when the sheriff picks up pat
flush he shoves his entire stack of chips
to the center of the table. 1t is at this
point that the girl demonstrates new
use of the stocking as a receptacle.
While appearing to debate upon the
value of her hand she slyly lifts her
skirts, extracts five cards previously
deposited in the garter region and
slips the useless hand into the same
place. The sheriff loses, the hero is
saved and the poker players in the
front row take mental notes.
There is in the play something of the
flavor of Hamlin Garland's "Hesper,"
a story which Mr. Beasco at one time
seriously considered for Miss Bates
use.
Los Angeles herald., 1905-09-24
Scarcity of New Plays

The managers have overlooked one
important feature of their business in
this country, or else have ignored it al
together, and that is that the number
of authors has not increased in propor-
tion to the number of new theaters
built. The result is that there is a
scarcity of good material, and even at
this late day, when all rehearsals are
almost due to begin, there are many
stars without plays. England and the
continent have not turned out any
great number of acceptable manu-
scripts, and it is likely that the revivals
of old plays will be even more numer-
Gus than they were last season.
The American author has no need to
complain, however. His work is sure
to find acceptance If 1t is worthy, but
the art of play construction is undenia-
bly, very much in its infancy in the
United States, although a vast num-
ber of manuscripts are turned out
yearly. But manuscript is not al
ways a play, and many of the sad ef-
forts that are often submitted as such
are not worth the paper they are
written on.
Art and literature seem such an easy
way to fame and fortune that hun
dreds feel called to devote their time
to one of the professions, only to find
that year or two is often absolutely
wasted. No man expects to achieve any
position in business life without half
a dozen years of apprenticeship with
hard labor, yet there are dozens of
young men and women who think that
one or two terms at an art school is
all they need to become full-hedged IL
Illustrators, and the young dramatic
author mistakes bright dialogue and
commonplace incident for dramatic
construction.
But our list Of arriving authors is
increasing, and there is possibility
that In another decade we shall be ex-
porting plays in goodly numbers.
