Curious Mania Some People Have for

The woman left the prescription
and said she would call for the med
icine in half an hour.
I'll bet five dollars she won't. said
the clerk She just looks like the
kind that gets medicine put UP for
the fun Of the thing"
4 didn't suppose there was anybody
foolish enough to take her fun that
way" remarked the next customer"
tOhl yes, there are such people. lots
of them," said the clerk Seldom a
week passes that we do not put up a
prescription that is never called for.
Why In the world the people who thus
neglect their remedies after ordering
them compounded will go to the trou.
BILE and expense of consulting doctor
is more than | can figure out. II they
don't want to take the stun prescribed
they certainly don't have TO, but they
might at least have the grace TO come
in and take it home after we have
gone to the trouble to prepare it, and
not throw it back dead loss on our
hands. Why, I've got regular morgue
back there for the repose Of uncalled
for bottles of medicine. | keep the
stun indefinitely, hoping that in case
the customer has not been carried of
by sudden death she will show up
again some time and ask for the bot
tie. If happen to know the delin-
quent's address l send it around G. o.
D., but people who make practice OF
ordering medicine that they never in
tend to take are not apt to leave their

! Cd new play called "rhe Family
A Kansas City dispatch to the
New York Evening Telegram tell the
story of the way the play was pre-
sented and rec lived in Kansas City:
| Kansas City had the distinction to-
night of passing judgment on the
! first presentation of Robert II. Davis
comedy drama, THE Family" The
verdict of a representative audience
was demonstatively in favor Of the
offering not merly because of the
matter of local honor involved. but
| because of the unequivOcal dramatic
merit of the play. At the end Of the
first act there were eight curtain
cast who ha, worked so artistically
seemed to reflect the enthusiasm of
| the audience in the latter scenes.
| There being no intermissiOn be-
tween the second and third acts,
there was no opportunity to express
appreciation. but at the close of the
third act there were many more cur
tain calls and even at the final cur
tain tne enthusiasm was so insistent
that it resulted in the curtain rising
n number of times. Mr.. Miller, him.
self was included in the demOnstra
ton.
The Family" is play which does
not strike any profundly new psy-
Geological or dramatic notes but it
is a gripping sermon on the funda-
mental humanities. 1t is intensely
| human: it is charged-Often almost
surcharged-wit human interest.
1t tells story that has much OF
| the everyday about it. story writ
| ten in the pages OF the life that Is
going on all around us. 1t is easy.
powerful, tear-compelling and laugh
provoking in one. There are mo-
mentS of COnSummate dramatic Skill
and trenchant character drawing. II
| is as old as the first sin and as new
as the last fOrgivness. 1t goes back
as far as the day when the first weak
woman was tempted by a designing
cad and helped herself to fall. 1t is
up-tO-date as the latest slang and
bit of sporting gossip. 1t is vibrant
and sweet with the al-pardOnine
mother love that thrills through it
from the first to final curtain.
