consistent musical comedy of friv-
oIous season. George v. Hobart pro-
vided the book and lyrics of The Boys
and Betty but admits that he drew his
inspiration for the story from a French
farce called La Paptllon. The music
is by Silvio Helm, one of the youngest
of American composers and who is
rapidly making a place for himself in
the ranks of ambitious musicians.
Both Hobart and Helm have collabor-
ated before in providing vehicles for
the exploitation of Miss CahilI and
they better than any others seem to
ly. This season Miss Cahill has an en-
tirely new list of songs to offer her
public, among them being 1.-THE Arab
Love Song" said to be typically of the
Cahill order; "Auf Wiedersehen,'' "A
Little Farther . "She Was a Dear Girl

comedy, will be presented under the
direction of Sam s. and Lee. Shubert,

Girls tells the story of three young
women who come to New York to earn
their living and with the avowed in
tentton of having nothing to do with
the opposite sex. The trio live in a
little studio, over the threshold of
which they have never permitted
man to set foot. One of the most anus

make to retire for the night, the sleep
ing accommodations consisting of
FOLDING bed, sofa couch and 1rris
chair. Just as they are about to turn
out the light a man rushes in-not a
burglar, however, but a good-looking,
ening clothes. He quiets the screams
or the girls and assures them he is
compelled to flee to their apartment for
protection and that in order to be on
the safe side he intends to remain all
night. As he refuses to get out of the

Henrietta Crosman. :.
Votaries of fashion have ever looked
upon the women of the stage as a
source of inspiration, and no actress
than Henrietta Crosman, who will ap-
pear at the Grand Oct. 21st in her
newest success. Sham.
Miss Crosman not only wea%S ex-
quisite gowns when the character per
mits of this feminine satisfaction, but
she always displays perfect taste and
carefully avoids those styles that may
be termed "freakish." In Sham she
has the opportunity to indulge her sar-
torial taste to q great degree, and all
of the gowns she wears in the play
have been much admired by the women
in her fashionable audiences in New
York, Chicago and other large cities.
One dress in particular, an evening
gown in which the white and gold COM
bination is used with artistic effect, has
won the applause of her feminine ad-
rnirers everywhere. The Greek note is
the dominant one in this creation, with
the yelling with white chiffon of a
sheath of soft white satin. The tunic
of chiffon is shorter by several inches
than the satin underskirt, and thus the
gown is made much more practical.
Outlining this tunic of chiffon is an ex-
quisite embroidery of gold bugles, de-
1ightfully light and glittering. On the
left side the tunic is slashed and Joined
by motifs of the bugle trimming with
a deep fringe of the golden crystals.
The plastron OF the embroidery is out
lined by bands of the embroidery, lend
ing very rich and brilliant effect.
Ruched sleeves of chiffon reach to the
elbow, which is banded by the en-
broidery and from which fall angel
sleeves of the chiffon edged with the
embroidery and weighted with a tassel
OF the bugles. There is a certain dis
tinct charm and grace in these angel
sleeves which invariably make them
welcome addition to an evening gown.

handsome and unique bracelet.

HEN TAXES KITTENS
DRIVES AWAY CAT MOTHER AND MOVERS FAMILY UNDER
 HER WINGS

LOS ANGELES, July 14.-The ma ternal instinct of hen owned by Mrs T. II. Parsons of 21S North Avenue 2s was so pronounced that when she was prevented from setting she adopted a brood of kittens, much to the ehagrin of the felines own mother. For a week past the whole neighborhood has been excited over the event.
 The hen drove away the old cat, and, after coaxing the kittens into her nest, took them under her wing and kept them warm until they grew large enough to care for themselves.
 Once each day she would allow their mother to come around and nurse them, but after that they were hers alone un- til the next day Mrs. Parsons at- tempted to give them back to the old cat, but the hen would have none of it, and continued to watch over them and bring them worms and other tooth. some morsels until they grew too large and too lively for her to manage any longer.

YARNS ABOUT GOLF BALLS AND ANGRY BLACkSNAKES

LONDON, July l4.-The crow seems to be attracted to golf balls in way wholly peculiar from the rest of the bird species. In parks where the rock and the crow abound one can notice them sitting in the trees or hopping about the putting greens in the distance watching the roll of the ball with a di- rect or sidelong glance expressive of the keenest interest and curiosity, whichis soon translated in desire to carry it off to roost in the neghbor- ing wood.
 The Kew gardens adjoin the Mid, Surrey course and in the royal preserve there used to be fairly large colony of crows nesting among the trees. Of this colony there was one particular crow who found his great amusement in mingling among the golfers and in disconcerting their play by indulging in repeated predatory campaigns against their golf balls.
 His policy was to hover in attendance on those players who used new white balls only. Those on which the paint had been clipped or which had been used for several rounds by an econom ical player were always rejected by this particular bird AS being beneath his fastidious attention.

Correspondence

STAFFORD, July 14.-Among those at Camp Inception who are escaping; the terrific heat of the past few days are: Mir. and Mrs. George Birdno and children; Mrs. R. s. Patterson and son MT. and Mrs. II.

 Inception is an ideal summer camp, fourteen miles from town. It can be reached in four hours by good wagon road that winds in and out among pine trees for five miles to the camp, which is situated in one of the largest can yons of the Graham mountains.
 Several mountain streams of cold pure water run down the mountain side through the camp and numerous varieties of wild flowers and ferns grow everywhere. Wild berries of sev. eral different kinds grow in profusion and small game is plentiful. This is the oldest forest ranger sta tion in Crook national forest and was the first nursery for pine trees on the reserve, hence it's name Inception. Be- sides this camp, there are a number of others within a radius of fifteen or eighteen miles of town, whose suv. roundings are similar to this one Col. umbine, on the top of Mt. Graham, is one of the prettiest resorts in Ar. zona, also one of the highest. Arcad ll located on the southeast end of tLe mountain is also a delightful place to spend months outing.

SOME USES or LEMONS

Two or three slices of lemon in a cup of strong tea will cure a nervous headache.
 A tablespoonful of lemon juice in a small cup of black coffee will relieve a bilious headache.
 A dash of the juice in plain water makes cleansing tooth wash, remov. ing tartar and sweetening the breath.
 A lotion of lemon juice and ross water will remove tan and whiten the skin.
 Plain lemon juice applied and left to dry on the faco will help to banish freckles.
 Lemon juice is superior to vinegar for salads. It should be blended with an equal quantity of olive oil
 Tough meat can be made tender if boiled in water to which a teaspoonful of lemon juice has been added.
 The juice of two or three lemons added to a pitcher of water is excell- ent to use as a final rinse when sham pOoing the hair, especially if you can not have rainwater. It leaves the hair soft, smooth and glossy.

THE BASQUE RETURNS

Such radical and surprising changes arc heinz made in women 's costumes that we are gradually becoming pre- pared for anything.
 One of the latest tendencies seems ,o be toward the return of the basque. lis numbers are few as yet, but it has appeared the pointed basque with tails.
 Some are buttoned at the back iron. peplum to yoke with tiny closely placed buttons. Fringe is often used to edge them.
 Ultra fashionable gowns have been seen in our eastern cities with the basque made of brocade or cretonne, with plain eolored skirts, usually plait- ed. When the basque IS of different material from the skirt, it may have hip panniers, thus turning it into a short polonaise.
 There is a tendency to reverse the position of the pointed girdle. It is beginning to turn downward at the front rather than up. This tendency may or may not mean anything in re gard to future styles.
