GOOD THINGS AT KElTHS
AND OTHERS YET TO COME

In the bill at Keith's this week is one
OF the funniest one-act farces that vaude-
vile has ever offered. This is Too Much
Married" which is presented by Julia
Redmond, clever comedienne and her
capable company. The theme OF this
sketch is enough TO make a stone laugh,
and each new complication brings more
and hearter laughter from the audience,
until the audience gets positively tired
from laughing. Al Haynes, as the gar
dener, Is particularly good, but indeed
the entire company has evidently been
carefully selected. so capitally do they
play their respective roles. Even the
kids score an emphatic hit.
Diamond and Smith, in their novel act
of songs Illustrated by motion pictures,
are one of the big applause hits of the
bill. The illustrations used i'm this act are
uncommonly beautiful and some OF the
motion pictures are vividly realistic, es-
pecially the battle scene I'm the soldier
song, and the big fire in the Fireman
song. These men. MesSrs. Diamond and
Smith deserve the big hit they are MAX
ing for they have thought out dis
tlnct novelty and given. evidently, much
care and thought to preparing and select
ing their songs and illustrations.

says:
"The personal interest Of the stud
ents, next to their studies, Is concen-
Srated alone on sport, which draws
their attention altogether from intel.
lectual or aesthetic pursuits. Foot ball,
above all, is loved uncommonly, and 1t
is practiced in such fashion that aca-
'demic and state authority are near to
forbidding 1t altogether. In the term
of a single semester nineteen students
fell victims to enraged, brutal hand
ling. At all the American universities
are open amphitheaters, in which
many thousands of spectators view the

WONDERS OF COAL TAR.
Vanilla Extract One of the Many Artl.
cles Made From It.

DO you know that a majority OF the
vanilla fiavoring used in the world is
not made from the vanilla bean, but is
the product of tar? Do you also know
that there are now between 500 and
1000 articles of commerce sold in the
markets that are the product of that
same tar?
The questions were asked by Gardi-
ner G. Crawford, an American, who
has long been engaged In business in
Tahiti, who is stopping at the Savoy
hotel while en- route east. Mr.. Craw-
ford was in the business of growing
and extracting vanilla in the island,
which was the principal product of the
natives, but modern science put him,
as well as the native growers, out of it.
The German chemists discovered that
product commercially called "vana-
line" could be produced from tar at
one-tenth the cost of the natural va
nilla flavor. 1t is as good as the nat
ural product and there was no compet-
ing with that.
Mr.. Crawford says that tar is prov
ing a productive field for the chemical
with the various coal tar products that
have been made for the cure of head
ache, but 1t will be surprising to know
that the experiments have been so ex-
tensive as to now include over 500
articles. At the same time not one
fourth of the tar product of the world
is consumed annually.-Denver Repub-
lican.
