COEUMBIA-"The Girl From Rector's.'

Paul NJ. Potter's latest offering. 1.-THE
Girl From Rector's.' coming to the Co
Iumbia next week, IS a version OF Pier
re Veber's famous comedy, "Loute, 90
which has had a long career in Europe.
1t is based on the theory that married
men often lead double lives, and that
the saint of the rural home may be the
LothariO Of the city.
Mr.. Potter hesitatets to introduce this
comedy to a community, where he be-
lieved married men Of double lives were
practically unknown, but many recent
law suits have tended to prove the con-
trary. so that the management has de-
cided to produce the PLAY.
The Girl From RectOrs'' had its pre-
miere in America at Weber's Music

business at that playhouse. The cast

JUDGE BRADFORD ON
LOCAL OPTION SITUATION

Federal Judge Edward G. Bradford.
who in the Constitution Convention OF
1867 took an active part In securing
the adoption OF the provision regarding
the submission OF the question OF license
TO the voters, has called TO account the
State Senators for their delay In acting
favorably upon the House bin providing
for the resubmlssion of that question TO
the voters Of rural New Castle county.
~ can perceive no proper reason why
the State Senate should not pass tho
House bill providing for resubmlssion
to the voters OF rural New Castle county
of the question OF license or no license
for the sale Of Intoxicating liquors" he
said. "The duty which rests upon the
members Of the Senate IN this connection
Is wholly free from doubt and Is one
which they are sworn faithfully to dis
charge"
"of course. II goes without saying
that any member of the General Assem-
bly, who Is willing to violate his official
oath on the ground that he cannot be
punished for his derelction is not iit to

Et;ooette Of cards.

If is sometimes bit awkward TO pre-
sent a note or card Of introduction in
person. For women, the best way Is to
stamp the envelope containing this IN
troductory note. put in a card Of her own
which gives her address. and mail II TO
the person for whom 1t is intended. The
reclpient win then call IN due time. When
a man makes an afternoon or evening call
with such a letter, he gives IL, along with
his own card. to the maid at the door.

day of the tea.

friends should call promptly, leaving their

Anna Baxter. a widow whom he had
courted for several years, sitting on his
lap in her home to-day. William Gear
hart captain Of Engine Company No. ~
suddenly drew a razor from his pocket
and slashed the woman across the throat.
She called for help and her son and
daughter dragged her from Gearharts
arms and notified the police. When Off
GERS Thomas Snee and l.. II. Miller ar
rived they found Gearhart lying on the
floor. his throat cut and big knife in his
hand. The razor he had used on the wo-
man was lying on the plano. Both vic

said their recovery is doubtful. No cause
whatever is assigned for the deed and no
quarrel or trouble of any kind occurred

Nem Idea Eor shirt Roxes.

A new dover chest is very convenient
because the side is arranged on hinges
SO it may be lowered. This saves the
trouble Of raising the lid every time any
Thing is wanted and II is far easier TO
,ce what YOU are getting out
The idea suggests another. Why not
make a skirt box on the same plan? Any
box will do. and shelves may be laid on
cleats inside, each one holding just one
skirt. It would then be quite unnecessary
70 move one skirt to get alone.
The same idea might be used for a
blouse box and the two might be covered
with denim and used as couches, What a
blessing 1t would be TO have a divan on
which pillows might remain undlsturbed
What comfort 70 get a skirt or waist
from box-even the very bottom one in
the pie-without having TO upset every
other garment within reach.

rh. Eashlonahle slew.

A few short sleeves are seen on the
newest models not for evening wear.
They are usually long, however and
always close-htting.
The most skillful OF the dressmakers are
making little or no curve on the inside Of
the arm.
1t is almost paradoxical. but the sleeves
to be properly made should not impede
ones movement. or be in the least uncom-
Portable.
There is a fad for lacing the sleeves all
the way up on the outside OF the arm.
A handsome dinner gown had trans
parent tulle sleeves shirred from the
shoulder to the hand. and the piping fol-
lowed by row of buttons. with simplated
button-holes
Pretty little sleeves for an evening
gown are OF lace. the top OF the sleeves
notched and the sides falling In tasselled
points TO the elbows
Another evening gown sleeve was Of
elbow length and shirred along the inside

NEW IDEA
Helped Wis, Couple.

1t doesn't pay to stick too closely to
old notions of things. New ideas often
lead to better health, success and hap
piness.
A Wis. couple examined an idea new
to them and stepped up several rounds
on the health ladder. The husband
writes:
Several years ago we suffered from

sallow weak. and irritable. My wife
and / both loved coffee and thought it
was a bracer." Delusion).
Finally, after years of suffering, we
read of Postum and the harmfulness OF
coffee. and believing that to grow we
should give some attention TO new
ideas. we decided to test Postum.
"Whdn we made it right we liked it
and were relieved Of ills caused by
coffee. our friends noticed the change
--fresher skin. sturdier nerves, better
temper. etc.
These changes were not sudden. but
relief increased as we continued to
drink and enjoy Postum, and we lost
the desire for coffee.
Many of our friends did not like
Postum at first. because they did not
make il right. But when they boiled
