House" relates to young wife who
in order to secure money to save her
dying husband had forged a promis-
sorry note. Her efforts 10 conceal the
facts from her husband compel her
to resort TO falsehood and deception
and finally when he discovers the
truth. he, instead Of offering to shield
her. denounces her for dishonoring
him. Then the young wife realizes
his unworthiness OF her noble sacri-
flee. She realizes that she has been
but plaything for him and the love
that once filled her whole existence
has fled. The play is powerful expo
sition OF the most subtle emotions. It
Is a study OF character and a striking
sermon against hypocrisy and selfish
ness
Miss Nelson portrays the part Of
Nora with delicacy of touch. a re-
finement and depth that has won the
praise OF every competent critic.
A metropolitan company renders
excellent assistance to Miss Nelson,
giving a performance that teaves moth
ing to be wished for.
"A Dolls House" had run last
season Of over two hundred nights
at the Biiou Theater. New York. and
this season Miss Nelson appeared
with great success at the studebakel

WOULD PUSH
LAND SUITS

Washington, Dec. Ex-senator Owen
has urged the Department OF Jus
tiee the Immediate making Of the test
suit TO determine the right OF the
United States to bring the $4,000 land
suits in the United State circuit court
for the Eastern district of 0klahofa-
He insists that all OF these suits rest
upon the two main propositions-the
right OF the United States to exer-
else guardianship over a full-nedged
citizen OF the United States. and, sec
on. the right TO bring suit in the fed
eral court to settle q controversy be
tween two citizens Of the state Of
Oklahoma. the United States having
no interest in such suit. He says this
question can be brought to immedi-
ate termination, without embarrass-
ment, and that the United States ought
not to be subject 10 the expense Of
carrying on this great volume Of suits.
nor should the citizens Of Oklahoma
be embarrassed BY them and penal
lied BY such suits in expense accounts
and lawyers fees. when all Of these
suits can be quickly abated by proper
determination OF these questions. The
department agrees that the test suits
viii be promptly brought.
The suits which they have brought
were not brought under the authority
Of the act OF May q. 1905. but were
brought on the general authority Of
the United States. and can. therefore,

five years past. They have expended

ated by congress with a view to pro-
tecting incompetent Indians against

ADVERTISING
A SERIES OF TEN TALKS on ADVERTISING No II
wrsatsa ~ Seymour EAtss sf PhIladsDhla W.

The advertising science is anything butexact
1t is an easy matter TO diagnose symptoms. But IN
advertsing as in medicine, very different causes
produce very similar disturbances; eye strain,
wabbly steamer deck. or green watermeloni each
means an upset stomach
But there are some broad general principles
which are as permanent as the eternal hills
Mouth to mouth talk is the great secret Of popular
advertising success. AS general rule people are
short on talk. They always running out The
hopper must be fed The shrewd advertiser scores
every time he produces a new topic Of conversation
If he fails to make people talk about his goods he
makes them talk about himself. They wash with his
soap or drink his tea or rub his axle grease just
to get in touch with him.
Talk can be created about the most common
place things; baked beans tooth powder or linen
collars You reed only TO know what switch to turn
on.
Human nature has not differed for six thousand
years but the point Of view is constantly chanting
If the people remained the same; If business
conditions remained the same; If society and the
weather remained the same. then the advertising Of
last year would apply this year But It doesn't The
point Of view is different We in continuous
turmoil of change The successful advertiser must
live right up even with the clock Advertise every
day to meet the conditions Of today. An adver-
sement that made big hit last year may fall flat and
dead this year There is in everything fuIness Of
time: a season when the fruit IS npe periods when
al conditions seem to lend themselves to success.
The advertiser must nave discernment sharp enough
and vision clear enough to know the year and the
month and the day Of the month in which the people
are not only living, but in which they thinking

When Tagging Ends

r1iE disciplinary period lasts as IoiiS as d poy
remains in the lower school, perhaps TWO
wears. When he passes into the upper school
he IS exempt from tagging, though cricket ana
football on half holidays are still compulsory
But as it IS likely he will be an aspIrant to one
of the teams, he regards this as no hardship.
Should he in turn be elected either to the loot
ball fifteen or the cricket eleven, he then be

his school fellows. On several occasions ne

return matches are played he IS much envied as
he passes in to the feast provided for visitors:
In time too he may rise TO the dignity OIL
project; then many privileges are his; lie IS
permitted to carry a cane; for him there are
no bounds; at some colleges he may smoke ;
and at the projects table in hall much better
fare IS provided He viii also be assigned a
fac To do unto as he has been done by.
As at the English colleges boy Scs from
one form, or class, TO another by lldlVldudi
merit. there IS no class graduation III the
American sense. He leaves at any time ms
parents consider it advisable. For the same
reason there are no class reunions; but there
IS an old boys day at some colleges, ana
general college dinner for all.
As a result of this disciplinary training at
the English colleges, while boy may learn Il
great deal more about athletics than what
IS contained in his books, while the chances
are he will not develop into genius, whoever
he NAV be- peer or commoner, IL IS very uIl-
likely he will turn out snob.

By Michael White

a gold piece INTO the hand OF
his son and reinquishes him to the care OF the
head master OF one of such great public
schools, or colleges" as Elton, Harrow, Rugby,
or Winchester, that youngster of fortune enters
upon a period of scholastic discipline which
at the Beginning might well cause him to
question his title to be numbered among a
hereditary privileged class. At that moment
he passes from such conditions of indulgence
as he may have experienced under the parent
al roof, to others governed by a somewhat
Spartanlille rule.
To sketch his career the head master per-
haps gives the new boy word or two of advice,
and then sends him to his house master, who
viii have charge of his domestic affairs for the
next four or five years Thenceforth for sew
eral terms the young scholar will probably see
little of the head master Indeed 1t IS to his
interest that he should not do 50, as being sent
up to the head master from the lower school
would most likely mean he had committed
some exceptionally grave offense, and to be
upon noticeably friendly terms with the
college autocrat would lay him open to the
suspicion of being a sneak, of which in British
schoolboy ethics there is no more desplCable
character. Not even to save himself from the
birch may he inform another, or the whole
college including the masters, will regard HIM
with contempt.

Fixing His Habits

DY the house master the new boy is shown
IL his cot in the dor1nitory his place at table in
hall his locker for books IN the class room, and
a shelf for his play box-nOw filled with per
sonal treasures and a supply of JAM etc, but
later likely to be the receptacle of such things
contraband as pistol white rats, or anything
prohibited simply because 1t IS so. The result
Of this tour viii impress upon the new boy
mind that no matter if he does bear an Illus
triOuS name or IS heir to millions, no Soecial
arrangements have been made for his comfort.
He will be compelled to rise at an early hour;
a shiverY proceeding IN winter when the DOR
rnitories are not heated and the water IN the
wash bowls is literally cold as ice. Then there
IS a wild scramble down to roll call. an hours
prep IN a bleak class room,-for as new boy
he cannot hope for place near the k1ndilng
fire-then a breakfast simplicity itself unless
supplemented from his play box. Alter that
chapel, followed by work and recreation IN the
ratio of about two to one, two more SIMPLE
meals, and bed at nine o clock.
On Wednesday and Saturday he VIII have
a half holiday mostly given over to cricket or
football and on Sunday, except Tor morning
and evening attendance at chapel, he may 90
what he rleases within bounds.
The house master having gwen HIM a general
outline of this, and further explained that the
breaking of certain rules will be followed IN
eyitalIy bv the swish of the cane, leaves the
new boy TO his own devices. As he has prob
ABLY arrived a day before the general assembly
Of the college, he then wanders about through
It's ancient halls and corridors, explores the
cricket and football fields, and finds has way
10 the authorized tuck shop. There ne
banishes awakened doubts Of the immediate
future by a reckless investment IN cake and
r,astrv stI1ffs after his heart. This spending OF
money as he pleases for the first time IN his HE
goes far to relieve him Of homeslckr1ess.

A Memorable Day

several hundred Of his school fellows; but
amid the laughter and shouts OF the general
reunion he Is entirely ignored. For once IN ms
life at any rate he knows what IT IS 70 De alone
IN a crowd animated by fellow feeling in
which as yet he has no part. In TACT the
situation IS made no better when some OF the
small fry do take notice OF HIM; ana unioi-

should reply TO their questions IN such a way
as To bring down their ridicule or by an assu1np-
tion Of superiority fare worse. 1t IS generally
