I most earnestly hope that the bill to
provide lower tariff for or else abso-

will become a law. No harm will
come to any American industry. and
while there will be some small but real
material benefit to the Filipinos, the
main benefit will come BY the show

in the enterprise of railroad which
seeks to cross the land of an old far

Repertoire at New Phillips.
Opening on Monday night with
that sterling comedy-drama, Ser
geant Fielding" the New Phillips
will this week present its patrons
with a solid week of repertoire and
vaudeville combined. Matinees will be
given daily, beginning on Tuesday. So
much has been written and said
about the production TO be put on
Monday night that it is not necessary
to go into an extended notice of it,
but all lovers of repertoire know it's
merits and will take opportunity to
be present when the curtain is rung
UP for the first time. At the head of
the Orpheum Company, which is the
producing company, is Mr.. Arthur
Chatterton, who is a young, romantic
actor of great merit. He has already
established himself in the theatrical
world and it is predicted that eventu-
ally he will make a star of the first
rank. Supporting him is a capable
company, including the charming SOU
brette, Miss Marie Frech. The produc-
lions to be put on are all standard
ones, some of which are slre ady fami-
liar to New Phillips patrons, perhaps,
but others will be wholly new. A full
scenic equipment is carried for each
play produced and it is assured that
there will be nothing done half way.
AS stated, in addition to the plays
proper, the company presents num-
Der of vaudeville features which are
introduced between acts and are said
TO be of the highest quality. On Mon
day night the usual rule with refer
ence to ladies tickets will be observ-
ed. 1t is confidently expected that the
house will do record-breaking bust
ness all week.

When hanging your linen to dry use
two lines comparatively close and par
allel for your tablecloths and sheets.
Throw one selvage side of your
tablecloth over one line towards the
other, allowing it to hang down about
a quarter of yard and being careful
to pin it a short distance from the ends.
Take the opposite of your cloth and
throw it over the other line, facing the
first line, and pin it in the same man

This will form Il sort of bag and will
prevent to considerable extent the

After the table linen is thoroughly
dried remove it from the line and pre-
pare to dampen it. A whisk broom Is
excellent for the purpose.
Sprinkle the tablecloths freely, being
sure that the selvage ends or hem
stitched borders are thoroughly damp.
Roll up tightly, patting the roll RE-
quently to spread the dampness.
