GREAT SUCCESS

is waiting the attraction who filled a
date the day before at another of the
six points in the circle, the economy in
contracts, expenses of transportation,
etc., ETC., are too apparent to need re-
equalization. Suffice it to say that an
attraction that would cost the all-home
chautauqua 5000 and $45 expenses of
hotel and transportation is placed for
period of weeks at cost that would
open the eyes of the guarantor of the
all-home plan who has gone over the
expense account previous to digging
up his share of the deficit.
1t is all logical, scientific, economical
and practical. Just the ordinary bust
ness common sense.
Comparison of the Redpath System
Chautauqua programs with those of the
other and more expensive plan is en-
couraged. In balance, quality, variety
and class the System will be seen to
have all the advantage. Why? For
the same reason that an automobile fac
tory turns out product impossible to
the cross roads blacksmith shop. Or
ganization facility for procuring the
best material the expert knowledge of
the material and where it should be
placed; experience of years in building
programs because they are in the busI-
ness as a business all the time and not
for a week. Those are a few of the
reasons.
HOW 1T COMES.
The Redpath Chautauqua System
comes as a burden bearer. The chau-
tauqua is a settled fact. Every town
of size and quality intends to hold a
chautauqua. If it is one of the all
home sort enthusiasm begins to bubble
early, the guaranty goes round, and
then a half dozen or a dozen men must
carry the load, neglect their own bust
ness, assume additional worries, and
when all is over as usual thing pay
we'll from their own pockets for the
privilege. The Redpath System re
quires no cash bond, asks no mans
time. 1t says: "Give us the assurance
that we can sell about one-half as many
season tickets as we shall have to sell
in order to pay expenses and we will
carry the burden" 1t furnishes the
best in the intellectual and entertain
ment market. 1t goes away leaving all
satisfied and ready to welcome it back
next year. In a nutshell that is the
plan and how it works. The tickets
placed with the merchants are always
sold and more demanded. They, the
townspeople, nor any but the Redpath
System run risk of loss. 1t is a simple,
sensible business way of holding chau-
tauquas. Once tried it is rarely aban-
doned.
The great success of last year, the
universal demand for return by the
cities where The System gave chautau-
quas and the enthusiastic praise award
ed the programs by the press, people
and pulpit are the best guaranty of
what it will bring this season and con-
elusive evidence that the plan" is the
true one.

and observed. Indeed, most of assist
ants are of the best type of college men
and undergraduates from the best
schools. Tents are erected and super
vised by men of experience in their
line and will be pitched In the best To-
cations obtalnable.

the most comfortable. coolest, and
cleanest possible under modern meth

THE REDPATH PLAN.
Something About the New System
Which Has RevOIutiOnized Chau-
tauqua Methods.

Something About the New System
tauqua Methods.
The Redpath Chautauqua System is
simply the organized application of the
principle of distribution of labor ap-
piled to the business of supplying the
demand for intellectual entertainment.
The same principle has made it posi-
BILE for the farmer to buy better pillow
for $3.50 than his forbears could buy
with $25. Organization, purchase of
material in large quantities, informed
and expert direction and conservation
of energy have made production cheap,
scientifically accurate, and useful
to the highest degree. So the COM
plete organization of the Redpath
Chautauqua System, its power to
buy talent in the mass, sort, sep
arate and classify it and extend its
distribution over half the west and all
over the east has given the Redpath
Lyceum Bureau and the Redpath Chau-
tauqua System their opportunity to
purvey chautauqua talent of the most
exclusive class at cost to it's patrons
ridiculously low when compared to that
assumed by the community that finan-
ces and conducts its own chautauqua.
1t is scarce easier but it is plainly much
more in line with the economy of the
age to conduct 100 chautauquas instead
of one. The possibilities of chautau-
qua circuit of six where each audience

EQUIPMENT IS ALL NEW.

All equipment used by the
Redpath Chautauqua System this
year is bran new. We disposed
of tents, seats, etc, used last
year and purchased an entirely
new outfit. The tents are big,
shady and sunproof; seats are
wide, roomy, high-backed settees
and chairs. Everything is new,
clean and comfortable. There
are shade, GOODNESS and comfort
able seats for all under the Red
path System tent. Ordinary
rainfall does not affect the tents,
which are specially made to re-
sist heavy storms. The purpose
of the Redpath System is to pur-
vey the best possible program
i'm the most comfortable place
possible.

A WORD TO PATRONS.

Last season made very definite an
swer to an important question. 1t was
made clear that the Redpath plan of
placing chautauquas Eieant better pro-
grams, better balanced and more sys-
tematically carried out than are pro-
durable in any other practical and eco
nomical way. The cities where the
Redpath Chautauqua System presented
chautauquas last season were delight
ed to find that they had had all and
more than they expected, and that
when the tent had come down and the
chautauqua was over no deficit remain
ed to be faced and settled by guaran-
tors. 1t was almost universally ac-
cepted as the sensible and easy plan
whereby ordinary cities might have
metropolitan programs at a minimum
of cost and a maximum of class.
That is why the ReGpath System Is
back again this season with greater
programs and doubled capacity. Last
season was to some dAgree an expert
ment both for the system and for the
people. 1t has ceased to be such. The
System will operate six chautauquas
simultaneously this season. 1t is thus
enabled to further Increase its facility
of operation and int consequence fur
nish still more talent of higher class
than it was able to do last year.
This supplement and its statements
are necessarily fragmentary to some
degree. 1t gives out what we have al
ready done and recites many of the
celebrities and features already ar
ranged for. 1t cannot, however, state
exactly what more is extremely likely
to be done, what other celebrities and
entertaining and educational features
may be added to those here recounted.
And there are likely to be consider
able number added to the dignity, in
terest and value of the programs. Last
season was a great success. This is
certain to be greater. In variety and
class, in every way, the chautauqua
this year will be vastly superior to any
previous. And it was an excellent
chautauqua last year.
Our ambition and every endeavor is
to put out the most ideal chautauqua
programs, giving attention to the edu-
cational and entertainment features,
and trying to make each number on
the program something Of merit and
something which stands for general edu-
cation and uplifts a community.
Read the supplement carefully. 1t is
worth while. Where else or how can
you find so much offered at a merely
nominal cost to you? Arrange matters
early. Take a week off. Leave the
farm to the boys and with the remain
der of the family and your neighbors
and friends "take in" the chautauqua.
OF course there will be other chautau-
quas in the future. but you may not be
here.
The programs will be given under
our new roomy and sunproof tents in
the most convenient locations obtaina-
BILE.
COMFORTABLE SEATS.
Mark this: All our tents are equip
ped with large, easy backed, comfort
able settees. You will find a Redpath
chautauqua seat as comfortable as
porch chair on the veranda at home.

throughout all of its history, has been
prevailed on to leave his business and
home chautauqua to become one of our

Erwin is a Tennesseean by birth and a
typical Southern gentleman that it is
a pleasure to know.

ODD OK EVEN
1t Is Very Simple Game, but May Be

An eminent Dutch artist during
visit to Paris encountered two of
his former students to whom he had

In spite of the Dutchman's polite
protestations they each took an arm
and hurried him to the finest hotel
in the city. After a splendid re-
past the master, observing the coun-
tenances of his hosts and guessing
from their shabby appearance that
their generosity had led them to in
cur bill beyond their joint purse,
announced his intention of settling
the score.

ton. But after considerable dis
cussion he became less determined.

Warts,

Little is known about the causa-
ton Of warts except that the irrita-
ton of dirt is in the majority of
cases the prevailing factor The
color of them is caused by dirt, and
if they are well scrubbed with soap
and a nail brush they will become
lemon or pink color or even quite
white. The best application is sal
icylic acid, either with collodion or
in the form of plaster. Every
three or four days the parts should
be wen soaked in hot water and the
softened portions Of the wart peel
ed away, when the application Is re-
newed.-London Answers.
