The rural comedy which is to ap-
pear at tle opera house Friday night
entitled Isl Plunkard' is a graphic
and amusing picture of real life and
characterization. Mr.. Lewis in the
title role brings plenty of humor to
his part and creates a good deal OF
amusement. The dear little child
rem, the Irish neighbor, the bogus
stock Speculation, the honest old
farmer, and Sis pretty sister are all
we'll sustained characters. There is
a deal that is novel in the play. The
farm scene with the little children
at play and its threshing machines
at work never fails to capture the
audience. Many clever specialties
are introduced by a big company of
comedians which goes to make up
an evenings entertainment of fun
from start to finish. Remember
the date and watch for the funny
country band street harade. Seats
fer sale at Sweets.

PUBLICITY THE REMEDY
FOR CORPORATION EVILS

Secretary of Commerce Straus in
Leslie's Weekly There has been sa-
crificed almost wholly the old per-
sonal responsibility that obtained
in business when managed by indi-
viduals or by partnerships. This
loss Of responsibility is very Inn
portant factor, and doubtless explains
many present evils. Perhaps no re-
medy will be more effective to elm
mate the evils that flow from this
lack Of personal responsibility than
to insure drastic publicity, which can
only be had through governmental
agency. This is one OF the main
functions Of the bureau OF corpora
tions. Regarding the combination OF
power. in respect to which 30 much
transformation has gone abroad, lei
me say a word. It's not the existence
Of this combination Of power, but
Its improper use, that should be reg.
ulated corporation desiring to
perpetuate its domination may use
Its combination power to give better
service-that Is q public good; but
when that power is used to prevent
any one else from giving q like ser
vice, or the best service it can, ther
its combination power is being used
rs an encroachment upon the rights
of others and against the public vel
fare. It is not within the power Of
proper sphere OF the government Il
lequalize competitors. but It is within
1.-THE power and proper sphere of til,
government to euualze the oppor
tunities of competitors.

REVIEW
TeIepbonina Across the Atlantic.

8jG lGlSPuOHiHS SNStUoU sH0 sNSsaHAiSs
Up to the present time wireless
telegraphy has not supplemented or
even appreciably interfered with
ocean telegraph cables. In fact, wire
less telegraphy has even aided sub
marine cables by bringing messages
70 them from vessels at sea. OF
course, 1t is possible that, with in
creased invention, knowledge and ex.
perience, wireless teIegraphy may
make such progress as ultimately to
interfere with ocean wire telegraphy.
These two are essentially future com
petitors. But there would be no com
petition between wireless telephony
and wire telephony across the ocean
because there Is no ocean wire tele-
phony and no immediate prospect of
its arrival. 1t is more likelygat pres.
lent that wireless telephony may be
extended in range to reach across the
Atlantic Ocean than that wire te1e.
phony may be similarly extended. In
i other words, there seems more pros
pect at present of transmitting the
human voice by electricity over the
surface OF the Atlantic Ocean than
lover an electric insulated wire car
ried under the ocean. The fact Of
transatlantic telephony is far from

Munseys New Margarine.

An innovation that is without ques-
ton the greatest that ever happened
in magazine publication has come with
the first appearance of the newest
Munsey idea for July. Like all of
Mr. Munsey's undertakings, it is a
little startling, but it will grow on
you. Briefly, 1t is a magazine in two
volumes under separate covers, but
under the one name. The name Is
The Scrap Book-a magic name that
made a great magazine a great sue
cess from the start. Mr.. Munsey says
there isn't room enough within one
cover to make big enough and
strong enough magazine to satisfy the
reader of today.
The Scrap Book in it's new form is
the largest magazine ever published
the biggest moneys worth to be
had, its conception seems only natural
to the man who has achieved fame
by sizing up the wants of the read
ing public and then filling the want.
The first section of this largest
magazine the world has ever seen is
practically an all-illustrated magazine
mot in the sense that 1t carries no
text, but that it is better and more
profusely illustrated than any social
ed illustrated magazine now pub
lished.
Every phase of life, every topic of
interest, every subject that has the
worlds attention, is told of in pic
ture and story. 1t is truly a reflect
or of public sentiment mirror of
the worlds events. 1t deals with
things timely and draws interesting
comparisons with things of the past.
Stories Of great disasters, reports
Of big achievements, comments on
famous trials, side-lights on every
thing Of human interest, have their
place in its pages-yet this is only
half.
The other half is 16O pages of
pure fiction-the kind that tugs at
the heart strings. the characters in
which take the form of life and be-
come your acquaintances.
