WOMAN and
SOCIETY.


Dorothy looks her sweetest
Clad in sackcloth rare.
Fashioned, with art completest,
From (himsiest cameIs) hair.
A cigarette CLEANS and flashes
Meath Dorothy's fingers bent:
She never forgets the ashes
Dorothys keeping lent.
Theatre dance and dinner
Dorothy shuns of late,
Only with Jack, the sinner!
Lunches en- tete-a-tete.
An oyster. q SOUP. q pheasant,
A salad, a sweat-content.
With frugal meal though pleasant.
Dorothy's keeping lent.
Often she bridges idle
Hours when emnloyments lack;
Oftener walks the bridal
Path in the park with Jack.
Never is Jack far distant
From his FAIR penitent,
So-with a male assistant
Dorothy's keeping lent.

Davis in '"lhe Player Maid" the new
romantic comedy written as test of
memory were really the work of Foote,
the actor and wit and their writing
was brought about in the following
way: Charles Macklin was once, in
his presence, boasting that he had at
tanned such perfection in his memoriE-
ing powers that he could recite any
thing he had once heard Foote
began scribbling While Macklin was
talking, and when the latter ceased.
he read off the following lines. chaI-
longing Macklin 10 repeat them ac
curately: $50 she went into the gar
den to cut q cabbage leaf to make
an apple pie; and at the same time
a great she-bear coming UP the
street pops its head into the shop.
What no soap?' So he died and she
very imprudently married the barber
and there were present the Pickanin-

TOP: and they all fell to nlaying the
game of catch-as-catch- till the
gunpowder ran out of the heels of
their boots" Needless to say. Mack
Inns boasting made the joke all the
harder on him.
The Player Maid will bv special re-
quest play a return engagement here
