Since the time of Adam men have
been laying the blame for everything
on women. Retribution for this cen
turies' old wrong is coming. A woman
in San Francisco says that the blame
for the fiippery OF modern feminine at
tire belongs to the men. When one
looks at the monstrosities of the pres
ent fashions. and hears the men
blamed for it, it must be confessed
that the score. old as it is, is evened.

The shade trees have been exposed
~ great peril through the ravages of
insects, and now come the unhappy
tidings that the chestnut trees are
falling victims to disease for which
no cure appears to have been found.
The trouble is particularly notable on
Long Island, the fine specimens of
chestnuts on the estates of wealthy
men owning summer homes in that To-
cality being among the victims. The
ailment is believed to be communi-
Gated through the sap, and the most
determined effort has failed to dis
cover the real cause or find remedy.
The chestnut tree stands for a highly
useful purpose, and If it must go"

MUSIC AND MIRTH ON
NATIONALS PROGRAM
Charles Mack in Irish Songs
Heads Promising Bill

Patrons of the National theater will
be treated, it is promised, to a merry
mixture of mirth and music when the
new show opens at that Ntheater this
afternoon. Nearly every turn on the
bill will be of the musical or comedy
variety, and all of the acts come high
ly recommended.
Charles Mack and a clever company
are to have the most important po-
sition on the new program Mack
will present for the first time in tab
loid form dainty little story in song
called Come Back to Erin" With
both its old and new Irish melodies, it's
snappy action and Mack's resonant
barytone voice, this midget comic OPP
era is bound to be enjoyed.
The Ernesto Sisters also figure as
headliners. Theirs is a sensational
bounding wire act in which these at
tractive European gymnasts have yet
to fail to startle with their skill and
daring. Harry Taylor is down for still
another feature. Harry is singing
monologist. who differs from others in
his line in that he sings none but his
own song hits, and his jokes are all
Original.
A highly promising comedy turn will
be the offering of Cogan and Bancroft
who style themselves the "skatorial
comedians" In Fun on Rollers" they
have a funny little skit
Among the others on the new bill are
Scott and Davis, in singing, dancing
and piano playing turn; the Stanley
Edwards company in a novelty posing
feature; and Hesse and Williams banjo
playing vocalists. The new motion
pictures will be right up to the minute

The Nevada divorce. Gillingham as
