inviting in both humorous POSSIBLE
tiles and it's heart interest. Miss Bes-
sic Barriscale, a gifted actress, i'm
personates the odd character of Lovey
Mary, whose runaway flight from the
orphanage with Little Tommy has
been chosen by Mrs. Anne Crawford
Flexner the plot proper of her
dramatic varsion of Mrs Alice Hogan
Rice's two famous stories. The COM

adaptation centers in the mirth-pro-
voking episode of Mr.. Stubbins and his
matrimonial designs upon little Miss

the original fiction has been elaborat-
ed to notable extent, until the aud

from the beginning of the play until

his national laurels as an eccentric

The impersonation of Mis- Hazy has
proven a worthy vis-a-vis in humorous
realism to Mr.. Carter, since it is no
other than Miss Helen Lowell, who
captured second honors to Maude
Adams in EQUALITY Street." as the re-
suit of the delicious character comedy
with which she enacted the part of the
spinster sister, Susan.
The play is arranged by Mrs. Flex-

which are laid in the Cabbage Patch
itself. The cast of twenty-six prime
ipal characters comprises almost all
of the new familiar figures, while sew
eral new ones have been introduced,
most prominent among them being
Hunkerdunkus Jones, the Astrologer,
who sends the spirit picture to little
Mis- Hazy, and to whom the introduce

Any showing of wage-workers'

The increase in the rent Of a five-room

and to him the rates of these had been

the prices of commodities must occupy
himself with those which are COM
