The Unique will make strong bid
for public patronage next week with
Margaret Severance, the young woman
who has reversed the bard Of Avon in
the matter of his Seven Ages" By
lightning changes in costume, some
bright lines of her own, strictly along
legitimate lines, this ambitious, good
looking young woman runs thru Shak-
spere's ages by commencing with the
last one and coming back to the first.
Will Hart and May Dillon, two former
favorites, will give much excellent mu-
sic, evoked from half dozen novel
instruments. The Royal Troupe of
Marionettes, featured by the European
Mantells, will also have a prominent
place. This is a high-priced novelty
replete with sensations and embodying
the acme of mechanical skill in COM
polling the toy human beings to per-
form like real people. The. Morrells,
in rural comedy sketch Which con-
tains some famous country songs and
dances, are said to have pleasing
specially. Harold Beckrow and Her
man La Fleur, still in high favor with
the Unique's patrons, will give new
| illustrated songs. New motion pictures,
| descriptive of comedy subjects, will be
presented.

ing purposes only, and there is not a
dull moment from the rise Of the cur
tain until it's final fall. The perform

clever comedy, but is also adorned with
scenery Of magnifcence and costumes
that are beautiful. The music has been
composed especially. for this prodpe-
tion. There are fourteen ensemble
numbers, several Of which are distinct
hits. 81 Love Them ALL as sung by
Mr.. Clark, and "My Six o CLOCK Girl, -
sung by Casper Zarnes, and cit Makes

the most popular hits. The chorus is
exceptionally clever, being composed of
pretty girls who can both sing and
dance. Paul Quinn, the star Of the
play, is also its author, and is said to
be a comedian of exceptional ability.
He is aided by Emil Heusel, who as the
German comedian, makes an excellent
foil. The company includes j. A. Mitch.
