in justice to Mr.. Hanford that no other
actor seen in Washington has so thorough
ly realized the part Of the adventurous
and commanding Peruchie. His concep-
ton and Interpretation of the role bore
the impress Of individuality. He inter-
preted the character with refreshing spirit
and dash, and entered into full apprecia-
tion Of its every mood Much applause
was aroused during the performance, and
at the close. in response to insistent hand
clapping. Mr.. Hanford appeared before
the curtain and told the audience in an
appropriate speech how highly he valued
their hearty expression Of approval
Not only was Mr.. Hanfords work of an
excellent character, but that of every
prominent member of the cast was thor
hughly acceptable, and the entire perform
ance proceeded with commendable spirit
and vim. AS the shrewish Katherine
Miss Drofnah shared the honors with Mr..
Hanford giving an intelligent delineation
of the part Of evidencing proper apprecia-
tion Of its requirements both in the violent
outbursts Of temper and in her display of
gentle, womanly qualities after the tam

The Pineapple.

This delicaey would be prepared
more often If 1t were less tedious to
pare, core and slice. Few use sliced
pineapple these days, since the food
chopper has been brought into so
much use and makes this rather
coarse-fibered fruit more palatable
Use sharp bread knife to cut the
pineapple in quarters. Pare each sec.
ton and remove the eyes and bits OF
hull with penknife. Really nothing
takes the place Of sharp penknife
for the purpose, not even the latest
improved pineapple knife, for it takes
out too large pieces. Next cut the
quarters into small sections and run
them through the food chopper and
add sugar Immediately to extract
juice. Unless a pineapple is prepared
early in the day it will be almost as
insipid for dinner as winter pear
the most tasteless fruit there is.
