Whether or not an actor should observe

on the hvStcrIa OF the moment for his effects

ON the other hand. there are actors who are
never moved at all by the emotion Of the mo-

that the protagonIsts on both sides are unrea-

old man Jefferson died seventy-four years

forty years. So that comedy not only Is a more

Il is said that a large percent of our

very strict when he makes contracts
with parties to furnish horses and
mules for his service. If a party
agrees to furnish so many horses and
fails to come up with his side of the
contract. Uncle Sam steps over and
buys from the other fellow until the
contract is satisfied and makes the
contracting party pay the difference

FEW MAY MARRIAGES.
Old Saying That ITO Marry in May
Il 10 Rue the Day"

1t will be noticed that there are
no marriages of importance fixed TO
take place during May. At most a
dozen are included in the list of fash
ionable weddings, and inquiry at
such churches as ST. Mary Abbot's.
st Paurs, Knightsbridge, Christ
Church. -Lancaster Gate and All
Saints, Ennismore Gardens, all
temples of Hymen," ELECTS the fact
that business is very slack" during
the month of May.
"To marry in May is 10 rue the
day" runs the old rhyme, and IL Is
clear, therefore, that we are still sem
ltimental enough to wish to avoid run
ming any such matrimonial risk.
There may be something in this
superstition about May marriages.
for II isa belief that age cannot
wither. II Is difficult to trace to its
source, but il has survived through
! practically all ages. Ovid alluGes TO
il, and ii was evidently no new idea
even in his day.
What is more, II is one which OBJ
tains all over Europe, and in face
of such strong testimony that the
gods are defed and fate tempted, II
the merry month is used as a
marry month" II is certainly wiser
for those who are embarkng on
what must always be the uncertain
expedition OF matrimony to either
choose April for setting sail or tarry

Music for the Bia Fair.

In addition to the grand concerts
which are to be given visitors to the
State Fair by the Liberati concert
band on the music Pavilion in the
Plaza or before the Amphitheater
which is world famous and has no riy
al anywhere. the State fair manage
ment has secured the splendid Iowa
Brigade band of Oskaloosa and the
Fifty sixth Regiment band of Fort
Dodge. The latter has been at the
Fair several times and is known all
over the northern Iowa. The Oska.
loosa band in like manner is one Of
the most popular i'll southern Iowa
and capable of excellent work Ora
hams orchestra will again furnish
stock pavilion concerts. With four
complete musical organizations on the
ground at once State Fair visitors will
not be out of hearing of good music
at any time.

Scholarship Contests.

Four or five years ago the novelty
of a contest in stock and corn judging
at the State Fair was suggested for
boys and girls, the prizes to be
scholarships at the Agricultural col.
lege. 1t was so successful and popu-
lar that a similar contest for girls
in cooking was added. now each year
some forty or fifty young boys ald
girls from the farms and cities of
Iowa gather at the Fair and show
what they can do in these accomplish
ments. An even larger number will
likely enter this year. since it Is
found that the prize winners of other
years have distinctly made good in
life. The scholarships go absolutely
free to the boys and girls, and there
is no better way of starting them off
for an education.
