THE STAGE
"Under Southern Skies

The success Of q play is assured II
the women like it, and l never accept
a play unless I think it is one that
will appeal to feminine theatergoers."
THIS remark was made by one Of our
best known managers, and careful OBJ
seryatlon Of our most successful plays
would seem to confirm his opinion.
Matlnees, which have grown enor.
mously in favor within the past few
years are composed almost entirely Of
women. seven.tenths Of any ordinary
matinee may be safely counted upon
as feminine in its make up. Natural
~. a play which appeals to women,
will draw bigger natinees than one
which does not take. their fancy. As
for the evening performance, the hus.
band sweetheart, or friend who is to
escort my lady to the playhouse, buys
seats for whatever play she suggests,
and so again 1t is tho woman who de-
cides the particular play they shall
patronize. 1t can thus readily be seen
how valuable to a play is woman's en-
dorsement. One Of the most consplc'
nous examples Of plays favored by
women is "Under Southern Skies"

"HunlnIan Hearts.r

Our brothers across the ocean are
now clamoring for American made
goods, both commercial and theatrical.
1t is not SO many years ago that an
Americacn play or actor was at low
ebb, and for that reason, American
managers were compelled to import
their melodramtic material from the
other side. But times have changed
Of late, and during the last few years.
any play that has borne an American
trade mark has been accorded a hearty
welcome on the other side.
ono Of the most successful Of Amer,
ican plays that has been sent to Eng
land in recent years has been "Human
Hearts" 1t is nowmeettng with great
success at the KensIngton Theator

it is now in its third successful season,
"under Southern Skies" has enjoyed
the distinction Of being one Of the
greatest favorltes among women that
our stage has ever known. It's not
a hard matter 10 discover why this is
so. "Under Southern Skies" presents
beautiful stage pictures representing
the luxuriant out of door scenes Of
sumner in the land Of flowers and
sunshine, and the indoor settings Of
an old aristocratic Southern home.
The eye is pleased by these pretty
pictures, and by the dainty costumes
Of the women. Everything is bright
and pleasing to look upon. and women
all love to see pretty things. There
is an unusually large number Of wo-
men in the cast, several Of them being
young and attractive. Few dramas

"Human Heart.,'

Till we have reflected on it, we are
scarcely aware how much the sum Of
human happiness is indebted to the
stage. We acquire cheerfulness and
vigor from mere association with our
fellow men in the theater, and from
the looks Of happy expectancy radiat.
ing from our neighbor's countenances,
inspired by the anticipation of pros,
pectiye enjoyment Of a good, clean,
wholesome drama, well acted and
presented.
Such, at least. is the idea brought
forcibly to mind In gazing over an
audience assembled to witness w. e.
NankeyllIe's great production Of "Hu.
man Hearts" aptly described as the
forever evergreen success"
Human hearts is play that in.
variably appeals 10 all that is hest
in mans nature, and upllfts him from
the sordld cares and petty worries Of
daily toll and trouble. The story Of
Human Hearts" is clean, wholesome
and Ineligible to everyone There is
no suggestion Of vulgarlty In any Of
its acts; but story of convincing
strength is told by the author, in a
manner that appeals irresistably to
all classes Of theater goers
The enormous success Of 'Human
Hearts" during the past ten years. is
a direct REPUTATION Of the idea enter.

purchased an automobile last summer,
and proceeded industriously to fami-
liarize himself with its mechanical
construction.
After II weeks coaching under the
guidance of q chauffeur, the broker
determined one evening to take spin
into the country without his tutor. He
decided to ride slowly. And to insure
against being hopelessly stalled on a
lonely road, he fastened the family
horse to the rear of the auto, so that
1t could tow the machine home in case
Of breakdown.
The auto chucked along gently,
when of sudden the horse swayed
and was dragged to earth.
