 Al wilson, who was at the Montgom- l cry Theatre Friday night while at lunch | with some friends told of an experience 1 in New York lodging house. It ap- pears that one of the lodgers was rath- CT a mystery and nobody seemed to know much about him. One day the landlady said to MT. Wilson:
 T don't believe that new boarder Is a bachelor. I'm sure he must be either a married man or wtdower."

 Thomas Jefferson was one time re- hearsing a stage hand to repeat the lines, 'rrhe Count is waiting" Mir. Jeff ferson was not at all pleased with the mans manner of delivering the line, and in full. rich voice Mr. Jefferson repeated the sentence and remarked that it would sound better if spoken just as he had spoken 1t.

 DO you only get ss a week?" queried the actor.

 Marie Barry, the clever prima donna of Frank Deshon's The Office Boy" company is a graduate of Bryn Mawr College, although she Is Q native of Salt Lake City. And this is the way she was telling a friend recently. she got even with the first girl friend that ever played her a mean trick. "I know" said Miss Barry. that as Elbert Hubbard says, there are over s0.o00,00 people who have never done me single mean trick. But there Is this one girl who for convenience sake | will call Ethel. She took the only fellow to whom I was ever attached. That is why have solemnly vowed to live in single blessedness.

Theories About Food.

Also . Few Facts son the Same Subject
 We hear much nowadays about health foods and hygienic living. about veg etarianism, and many other fads along the same line.
 RAstaurants may be found in the larger cities where no meat. pastry or coffee Id served and the food crank is in his glory. and arguments and the ories galore advanced to prove that meat was never intended for human stosnachs, and almost make us believe that uur sturdy ancestors, who iilved foor-score years in robust health on roast beef. pork and mutton must have been grossly ignorant of the laws oi health.
 Our eoresathers had other things Co do than formulate theories about the food they ate. A warm welcome was extended to any kind. from bacon to acorns.
 A healthy appetite and common sense are excellent guides to follow in mat tern Of diet. and mixed diet of grains, fruits and meats Is undoubtedly the best.
 AS compared with grains and veg etahles. meat furnishes the most nutri- rnent in highly concentrated form ana ls dlgested ana assiinilated more quickly than vegetables or grains.

He is a delightful fellow who comes to Montgomery every season and never fails to be associated with some- thing good.

 sophie Brandt, who is to appear in Montgomery soon in A Madcap Prin- cess. the romantic light opera by Harry B Smith and Ludwig Englander, is a young and pretty singer of German descent from one of the oldest families in St. Louis, where her late father was q leading banker. Miss Brandt's great grandfather, General Ernst von Angel roth. was one of the eight pioneer set- tiers of St. Louis, and was the first Consul General in this country. He was responsible for the act in Congress which made 1t lawful for foreigners to own property in this country. Miss Brandt's grandfather. Robert Earth, was the last American citizen to hold the position of German Consul in this country.
 Although Miss Brandt's voice has been under cultivation since childhood, her stage debut was made in vaude- vile comedy sketch, in which she ap- peared for an entire season. Then Col onel Savage sent her to London to play the widow in The Prince of Pilsen Last season Miss Brandt toured the country extensively in the prima donna title role of Kirke Lashelie and Julian Edwards comic opera. The Princess Chic.'
 '"rhis summer purchased "A Madcap Princess from Charles Dillingham;, and Miss Brandt will start her tour In that opera on November II in Norfolk, Va.
 Miss Brandt's dashing personality and brilliant voice will be admirably adapted to the role of Princess Mary Tudor. The aim of the management is to establish Miss Brandt as one of the leading opponents of light opera in this country and to further that end we have engaged for her support the best singing material available"
 Wilstach sends along some photo- graphs of Miss Brandt that show a very handsome young woman.
