MEMO ON THE STAGE

, who know him. have seen him awaken weekly.
 Flip, the mlschievous sprite who at taches himself unbidden to the Princess party, will furnish the broad comedy part. and the humorous possibilities of the character are unbounded. In fact, it was thought at one time that the mischievous, comic Flip should be the focus of the pro- duction but the idea was abandoned be- cause a healthier tone can be attained un- der our present plan. The story of Memo is a 'hearthstone story and that makes It's universal appeal. The things that happen to Memo are possible because they happen in dreams.
 Boy to Play Little Memo.
 Memo is a boy with red corpusces in his veins. In this production he will be played as a child. anticipate no diff culty in finding the right boy for the part, for this country is famous among theat- rical managers the world over for the number of it's talented. precocious stage children. Memo must be clean, pure and rare as a four leaf clover It must be humorous, but refined If treated other wise Nemo's reputation would be tar nished hopelessly One night of vulgar ity and 1t would come to an end
 Have you decided on the east?
 Not yet, except that it must be a fine one."
 Are speetacles popular in this eoun- try?"
 "Spectaeles, if well done, are always popular everywhere But there should be an intelligent idea back of It. Memo should be particularly popular, because We expect to outdo previous efforts In this line and because this will be the first distinctively out and out American spec tacle. Even in the case of Palmer Cox 8 Brownies, which we produced on the stage, the theme was not an American one, for the Brownies belonged primarily to Scotch folk lore"
 "Will MT. McCay's suggestions as to scenery and costumes be followed?"
 "One of the chief points of strength of the Memo series in the Herald has been
The Birmingham age-herald., 1907-09-22

portunity we have been waiting for" said MT. Marc Klaw, in discussing the forth coming performance. We have felt that in the presentation of spectacles mana gers have been drumming on the same oll string for years. We wanted some thing different-something that possessed no. some, but all the points Of excellence possible In Memo we have 1t; at least we think so and we are going to stake s1O0, 900 or more on our Judgment. Memo unquestionably is the best venicle TOT n nroduction of this kind that we ever fou,d Alice in Wonderland was won tlerful, popular creation. I consider Memo a greater one in its elements of popu- larity and stage possibilities. Alice in Wonderland dealt with animals. Memo, with all its effective imagining, deals with the human phase of fancy"
 ''What were the particular features or

the strikingly original and effective scenic effects evolved by MT. McCay and em- phasized by fine color scheme and a wealth of detail in the pictures.
 Tn short, we have to create nothing in either scenery or costume. The artist has done this for us and all that remains for us is to select the very best where all Is extremely good and to execute the ideas he has given us in his pictures.
 We will carry out the artistic sugges- tons of the artist fin such a way that his production of Little Memo will surpass previous records heer or in that house of spectacle, Drury Lane theatre"
 From now on not fewer than one hun dred and fifty persons will be employed steadily In the preparations for Memo. Costumes, designs, scenic artists, wig makers, bootmakers, electricians, metal workers, carpenters, sewing women and others will be busy at the multtifarious details. MT Klaw estimated the numerical strength of the Memo company when the curtain is raised at two hundred persons. 1t is certain that there will be radical de- partures from the conventional ballet, and these pallets will be an effective fea- ture of the play.
 Tn what theatre will Nemo' have It's initial performance MT. hlaW was asked.
 We have not decided that yet he said, but it will have to be big one. We need great deal of stage room and we expect big audiences.
 Memo should have a long run In New York and then the New York company will be taken to the leading cities If we don't realize five times our investment of s1O0,0o0 I will miss my gues. Which Is, after all. the best way of telling what we think of the theatrical value of Little Memo"

About shampoonlna.

When there Is dryness of the scalp the application of warm olive oil to the head prior to washing is recommended. If pos sible this should be done twenty-four hours before the hair is shampooed, the oil being both rubbed into tho scalp and also allowed to saturate the roots. This has the effect of strengthening 1t, and in the case of weak and falling hair It will do much to prevent the distressing loss which Is so often the effect of shampooing
 The yolk of an egg as a hair wash is an old and tried specific. but many women nowadays believe in adding to it the juice of lemon, while as many as six or seven yolks are sometimes em- ployed for one shampooing, so as to per init of three or four applications, this insuring a perfect cleansing An excel lent method of obviating any subsequent stiokiness Is to add a teaspoonful of cream of tartar to the final rinsing water.
 In the case of fair hair, the whites of the eggs are always better than the yolks, which tend to darken 1t, and these should be used with little soft soap.

Alrlno the Hair,

To air the hair take out all the pins and shape the hair loose. Stand before an open window, shaking the hair until 1t has been thoroughly aired Then fix It for the night. Never let 1t stay done up' This will soon take all the life and fine texture from 1t. Instead part 1t in the middle of the forehead down to the neck and make two loose braids of 1t, each beginning Just behind the ears This will divide the hair so thoroughly that the scalp at the middle, usually covered, will be free and may be well aired.

New York, Saturday.
 Memo, the brightly, lovable youngster that MT. Winsor MeCay, through the Herald, has made an eagerly loked for Sunday visitor to children and grown ups in tens of thousands of American homes, Is to be seen on the stage.
 He is to be the central figure in the most elaborate and artistic spectacle of It's kind ever presented In this country. Messrs. Klaw and Erlinger, after wait ing years for a suggestion that was an American creation big enough in spectac- ular possibilities, and was at the same time entirely novel, say they have found 1t in Little Memo and have bought from the Herald all the dramatic rights to that widely popular illustrated story. The scade of the stage production is such that before the public gets a glimpse of Memo as a stage hero Messrs. I<law and Erlinger will have expended at least $100,000 on the spectacle.
 Great spectacles, with their numerous scenes and multitude of costumes, are ordinarily slowly planned out, the Drury Lane pantomimes, for instance, usually being sketched in their main features two or three years in advance of their public representation. To get them into finish ed stage form, even after all the main work is done, takes months in London. Messrs. Klaw and Erlinger said yesteday: Tt will take us no such period This Is an American production, and American push will be back of 1t. Our firms cos- tume scenic and mechanical organization is such that we can put a host of peo- pie at work and we expect to be able to raise the curtain on this latest and first American production of spectacle, very early in 1908.
 Few of the details of production have been worked out as yet, but every ounce of pressure that we as producers can bring to bear will go into the effort to have Memo ready for his public bow within a few months
 MT. McCay in his Memo, that young dreamer of most gorgeous, grotesque and delightful dreams, has given us the op-
The Birmingham age-herald., 1907-09-22

MT. Sleet Little Bon Bon, the dawn guards pirates. savages and host Of others.
 The main idea will be that given by MT McCay, that the Princess of Slumber- land, the only child of King Morpheus, Is lonesome, and Memo Is chosen for her companion. The stage pictures to be shown will be depictions of the experi- ences of Memo, the Princess and entour- age in trying to reach the palace. They find this difficult, for the whole fabric of the dream fades away just before the palace Is reached, and Memo usually awakens in his little room with his anx- ious father or mother bending over him.
 "On the stage Memo will wake but once. and that will be in the grand clos Ing transformation scene. It is probable that in this scene Memo will be shown in his room, in which the Herald clientele,
The Birmingham age-herald., 1907-09-22

AT. MeCay's creation that prompted you To adopt 1t for stage purposes?" MT. Klaw was asked.
 Every feature of Memo in Slumber- land is strong, not alone for the purpose Of which 1t originally was intended, but also for our purpose. To begin with, for real theatrical success you must appeal to all classes and ages. Memo appeals to the whole family. His droll and fanciful experiences interest the grown ups as much as they do the children. Therefore Memo will not be baby play to inter est the nursery occupant only.
 A'Then the idea is new, strictly modern. Novelty is to be the keynote of the pro- duction. Furthermore l never have seen anything that afforded so great an oppor tunty for spectacular effect as does this idea of Mir McCay's. The millions of persons who have been watching Memo throughout the country every Sunday must realize, even without knowledge of stage mechanical art, the unlimited and startling possibilities that we will have for mechanical effects, adroit lighting, stage tricks and Illusions
 All the characters Represented
 What form is the production to take?"
 T suppose it may most accurately be described as a series of humorous, artis- tic, spectacular tableaux, bound together by a charming little love story and with melodic music. Memo and the Princess, of course will be the principals in the love story. The music will be one of the strong features-music suited to the vary ing phases of Nemo's Dreamland imagin- ings. No final choice of composer has yet been made by the way, and we are still considering the choice of playwright, Our idea Is that the music should be rich in melody rather than of the less popular kind"
 'Will you utilize all of the characters MT. MeCay has drawn?'
 'Yes. There will be Little Memo, the Princess of Sunderland, King Morpheus, Dr. Pill, Flip, Uncle Dawn, Officer Buttin,

Take a wooden po- tato masher (not Q wire or metal one), and break the almonds and sugar, then slow'y. almost drop by drop, add half pint of rose water. The process Is a long one and must be carefully done, the ob- ject being to break the almonds as fine as dust Let stand over night, then strain through a muslin cloth.

Sleep not more than seven hours and take no maps in the daytime. Take plenty of exervise, walk ing at least i've miles day or go out wheeling every day. If you cannot do this, join 8 gymnasium where you can get the mechanical massage. The theory of all this exercise Is that in increasing the action of the heart 1t throws more blood to the lungs and more oxygen must be taken into the lungs to purify this blood. The oxygen burns out the farbon or fat, and if the diet Is such as to keep moro from being introduced constantly, the flesh must be reduced

Galveston, Texas, March 8: The
minister of war Of Mexico has replied
to the offer Of Pedro Alvarado, the
mining king of Parral, to give $4,000
900 to equip and maintain a regiment
of Indian fighters to rid Mexico Of the
Yaqui Indians. The minister says
President Diaz will accept the offer
upon conditions that all the officers OF
the command be selected from the
Mexican army, and that none but Mex
leans be enlisted in the campaign. To
this Alvarado does not fully agree. he
declares the Mexican army officers
have made a dismal failure Of all their
campaigns against the Yaquis for the
past fifteen years, and says the Indians
have outwitted the regular soldiers.
Alvarado's idea is to form the greatest
portion Of the troops from Indian
fighters and cowboys from New Mex
leo and Texas and complete the regi-
ment with Mexicans. The war depart
ment wants to disburse the funds, and
this he agrees to, but begs Gen. Diaz
to reconsider his conditions and not
delay the campaign against the blood
thirsty Indians by insisting upon using
only Mexicans. Since making his offer
to the government, Alyarado has re-
ceived offers from many frontiersmen
and cowboys, offering to furnish
company of rough riders with their
own Indian scouts from Arizona and
the Dakotas.
