THE ACADEMY OF MUSIC
A Rare Opportunity Given The

1t is so seldom that any adequate

more, of f. II. Sothern and Julia
Marlowe i'll Shakespeare's tragedies

pectation through the nerves of every
lover of the immortal dramatist.
1t is not so very uncommon TO see
some one part in these PLAYS fairly
we'll rendered, but a complete perfor.
nance of a Shakesperean play, one in
which the leading roles, supporting
company, scenery, costumes and ac-
ceSsories all lend illusions to the SEN
SEES, is rare indeed. But Charles Froh-
man has so,ved the problem. In bring
ing +. Ii. Sothern and Julia Marlowe
together he is giving the theatre-go-
ing world an opportunity of seeing
and hearing Shakespeare S masterpieces
in a manner such as has perhaps never
been afforded before.
The repertoire for the week will be :

At The Colonial Tonight.

The best show so far in the musical
comedy line will be The Libe "
Bellies" with its Radium Ballet, Pink
Paiama Girl, and twenty-five of the pref
tiest young girls ever seen Oh our local
stage. This attraction will be, seen at
the Colonial Theatre next Saturday,
February 4lh, matinee and night. A
number of comedians. dancers and sing
ers prominent in the profession are
among the list Of names in the cast.
This production has won fame in being
the most extraordinary, unique and orig
inal musical comedy on the American
stage, and from the fact Of its having the
most exquisite display of feminine lovll-
ness of any of the recent popular beauty
shows" With this object IN view Mr..
Berger descended pom some of the
musical and opera organizations noted
for their beautiful girls and from them
selected the prettiest ''San Toy, Foxy
CUTLER Sleeping Beauty" "The
Chaperones, !" "The Strollers," "Belle of
New York" "Bluebeare," girls will be
found among "Tbe Liberty Bellies"
The novelty Of the theme of the play and
its treatment is manifest from the very
rise of the curtain where is displayed the
pretty scene in the Idormitory of girls
seminary. 1t is bit of school girl life,
which is not down on the curriculum and
which is forbidden TO every masculine
eye. Here Miss Pink Pajamas and her
night. robed friends hold sway. A con-
fusion of night-gowned, sky-larking girls
in a midnight school revel. That is the
picture. 1t is indeed a marvel f stage
management One lesst touch of sug
gestiveness would spoil il, bnT instead,
throughout it all, is permeated the frag-
rance of innocent girihood. the bubbling
spirit of girlish fun. 1t is a scene. the
like of which has never been portrayed
on the stage, and sintertwined in this
beauty feast are graceful dancers, tuneful
songs, mimicry aud clever specialties.

ENGLISH PRAISE cHoATE
Resignation Is Received With
Feelings Of Genuine
Regret.

Landau. Feb. 1.-The English press
continues to ring with high praise OF
Ambassador Choate, announcement OF
whose intended retirement has been
received with a feeling OF genuine
roget that is absolutely without prece-
dent.
The following paragraph from the
current issue of Black and White
Il a fair sample of the friendly senti-
ment that has found expression in
newspa pers and periodicals through
out the country:
ssIn ali the long line of distinguish
ed men who have filled the post OF
American Ambassador at the Court Of
ST. James none has enjoyed wider
popularity than Mr.. Choate. and none
will be missed and regretted more sim
eeraly ON this side of the Atlantic
when in the course of a few months
he presents. as he has decided TO do,
his letters of recall. We in England
have come to regard the American
Ambassador as much more than dip
lomatist. He is, in a way, public
institution. and the part that he plays
in our social life is almost as active
aud intimate as if he we're one OF our
Dublic men. On all sorts of ceremo-
NAL occasions and celebrations the
American Ambassador is invited to
deliver orations, which are invariably
models of felicity, and which are I'M
chilled by that formality and reserve
imposed by tradition on the utterances
of other diplomatists
1.-THE art of apt and graceful speech
has been cultivated TO a high dergee
of perfection in the States. but none
of Mr.. Choate's predecessors has ex-
celled him in its practice, and his
withdrawal from our midst will in
deed be a sensible loss TO many sides
of our social activity. OF his quail
ties as a diplomatist it is possible to
speak quite as highly, for during his
residence in England several anxious
questions between the United States
and Great Britain have come up for
adjustment, and their settlement has
been due in no small measure TO his
exertions. He understood the English
people, and he liked them as much as
they liked him, and it should be some
satisfaction to him to know that he
returns to his own country having
helped to bring about better under
standing between the two English
speaking nations than has ever before
in their history prevailed. "

HtneLinr Alfalfa.

Throughout the western half Of the
United States alfalfa hay is commonly
stored in stacks in the field. Alfalfa
stacks will not shed water as readily
as stacks Of grass hay. In the arid
regions there is little danger from
rains during the season Of storage, but
In humid climates It Is necessary to
store the hay In barns or else. cover the
stacks with large tarpaulins, or they
may be topped with grass. Otherwise
the percentage Of waste is very large.
In any case there is likely to be some
waste, for which reason the stacks
are made large, thus reducing the pro-
pOrtlonate amount Of waste. In the
alfalfa regions of the west the stacks
are as high as the hay can be handled
easily and may be 200 feet or more in
length. The size of the stack is then
limited chiefly by the convenience in
bringing the hay from the surrounding
field.

A Hair Cut That Made War.

The cropping Of the flowing locks
and beard of Louis VII Of France
brought on three centuries Of blood
shed. The archbishop Of Rome had
decreed that the French king, az a pen
ance, should shave and have his hair
cut short His appearance so star
tied and amused his spouse, Queen
Eleanor, that she laughed aloud and
began contemptuously to fiirt with the
Count of Anjou, afterward Henry H.
Of England. The shorn king stood
the disgrace for a time, but at last
sent evidence Of his grievance TO the
pope and obtained a divorce. Eleanor
then married Henry, and as her dover
the rich provinces of Potion and Gul-
enne passed into his hands. Louis
made hot attacks on Normandy, and
devastating wars, which continued for
some 300 years, were the consequence
Of this cropping Of monarch's head.

Writing n Letter.

A letter is written conversation and
should be simple, cordial and with a
? favor of personality, like a chat with
a friend.
When discouraged, sick or sad do not
write. A letter carries atmosphere.
Never write anything over your sigma
ture Of which you might later be asham-
ed. Write kindly Of every one. Letters
are like debts-harder to pay when over
due. Read over your friends letter just
before beginning your reply and then
answer it. Out of the heart letters are
the most welcome.
Use plain, unruled stationery, fold
ing once to fit the envelOpe-white,
cream white, gray or gray blue Of good
quality. Men of taste use only white
paper
Avoid eccentric shapes and colors,
monograms or heraldic devices Of I'M
