Delicate Flower Symbolism Running
Through Plot of Deeper De-
sign-Me Iodrama at
Finish
"HEARTsEAsE," romantic play in fou

s~NAAoS
It was a fat and complacent little
man, with a nimbus Of gray whiskers.
who seemed most moved by the deli
cate symbolism Of the heartsease at the
Belasco last night. The back of his
head was very bald and very shiny and
not at all expressive, but when Eric
held up the flowers and talked of his
love for Margaret, the fat little man
looked lovingly at his wife beside him,
also fat and complacent, and I saw
his face! How many stodgy little bald
headed men, buyers and sellers, with
thick, bourgeois fingers. there are, into
whose lives the fates have stitched a
thread Of romance! And so a flower, d
strain Of music, a breath Of perfume,
makes them courtiers and cavaliers,
and sends them jousting off into the
world of make-believe, to win their
lady loves all over again.
This underlying thread of delicate
sentiment accounts for much of the
charm of "Heartaease," although it is
a play of considerable dramatic merit
and is admirably acted by the Belasco
players. Art and artifice in good stag
ing and costuming aid the company,
and it is not often that powder and
patches are used to better advantage.
Lewis S. Stone would be engaging if
he spoke meaningless lines, so strong
ly is his personality-his very own
expressed in his acting, but in his
strong scene in the third act he finds
an opportunity for really intense and
dramatic expression. His enemy has
intrigued against him, stolen his
sweetheart, and, now, after the exile
has returned, he finds that he has
stolen his opera-the great work of
his life, and is offering it as his own.
The overpowering wrath of Eric Tenn
pie, when he faces the man who has
sought to ruin him. is one of the strong
est bits of acting which Mr.. Stone has
yet done. Miss Oakley deservedly
shares the honors with Mr.. Stone, al
though her role places considerably
less of a demand on her powers of in
tense acting.
Mr.. Ben Graham can be depended
upon for a good performance in what
ever role he is cast, and his reputation
is not 1essened by his Lord Neville, the
equity old nobleman who stands in the
way of the hero's happiness.
Charles Ruggles has a felicitous char
acter part, that of an Irish army cap
tain who has much difficulty in sum-
moning sufficient courage to propose to
the adorable Alice Temple, charmingly
impersonated by Miss Beatrice Noyes.
Richard Vivian and James Applebee
find about the same range of express
sion in the roles of two eccentric old
LondonerS.
The story of the play is a simple
one, as it should be, with the hearts
ease motive, but it is altogether a de-
lightful and entertaining play, with
just touch of melodrama at the end.
