When the King of England wants to
see a show they bring the show to the
castle and he hears it alone in his pri-
vate theatre. In this country we are
all Kings so far as having our private
show is concerned. We simply buy an
Edison Phonograph and listen to the
latest popular song; to the tenor opera
singer; to fine old hymn; to rag
time dance or to funny dialogue.
If you are King why don't you ex-
ercise your Kingly privilege and have
show of your own at your home?
