Bankers and Brokers" brings back
memories of the days at Fischer's be-
fore the fire and of those other days in
the temporary theaters after the fire.
Yet the play is to many intents new
and different. There are new songs, a
wealth of new and elaborate costuming
and new scenic effects and bits of hila-
rious business" Tt is the old play re-
yived and glorifea, with none of the
comedy left out and much that is good
added to the original. Kolb and Dill
are at their best in the parts of
Pluckus and Pickus. and a catch line
from the play itself is the best COM
mentary on their work=..At last we're
in the right place.
The crudity of a first night produc-
tion naturally marred the action of
the piece, but a little polishing should
easily remedy the defects within a day
or two. Miss Rafter, Miss Vesta, Miss
Boyne, Percy V. Bronson and Albert f..
Duncan have the best parts allotted
to the principals and are well cast in
their respective roles. The others

The best of the old musical numbers
is Whistle and Til Wait for You" sung
by Miss Vesta, and the best of the new
is Rock, Rock, Rock" sung by Percy
V. Bronson and chorus. Miss Rafter
has number of pleasing songs and
several novelties are introduced.

KolD and Dill in their revival last
night at the Princess theater OF their
old success, Bankers and Brokers"
gave TO the theater goers of San Fran
cisco brand new, genuine SURPRISE

the play and as unexpected TO the mem

first TO voice appreciation in hearty ap-
piause.
She is chorus girl-tilis surprise
and a newly acquired member of the
chorus at that. Last night was her
first appearance with the Kolb and Dill
company and her first night on the
Princess stage. She was inconspieuous
enough until, in the midst of the en-
semble at the beginning. of the second
act, standing far back in the wings. her
voice swelled out alone in a solo num-
ber She sang an old, simple favorite.
The Swanee River" yet that song was
the newest, the best, the most catching
thing in the entire play. -Four voci-
ferrous encores were given the unknown
singer. and then the audience clapped
for more until she was forced to appear
alone, as a star might do, and bow her
acknowledgements. Then came the
whispered inquiries, who is she?"
It took the assistance of business
offlce representative, door keeper and
several members of the company to
solve the mystery. Her name is Fran
ces TAFT; she is an English girl, and she

The Modern House Keepers Exchange

The Ironing Board Catherine Carroll,
lzoo Iwelfth avenue, Sunset, San Fran
cisco)-Let me tell the readers of the
Modern House Keeper page of two IDEAS
Tor the Kitchen and home. First-In-
stead OF using the light and wobbly
ironing board, as we are expected to
buy, had one especially made from
two inch sugar pine and somewhat
wider. and longer than ironing boards
usually run. ! next secured large
pair OF strap. hinges and hinged the
board to the kitchen wall so it would
drop down when not in use, and when
raised folding bracket held it level
at the required height. If the wall
space be too short to accommodate the
board 1t may be hinged at the heavier
end only and drawn by cord and
pulley up to the ceiling, where a spring
catch will hold it securely until needed
again.
Second idea-Cover the kitchen table
with some light pattern of linoleum
Glue down securely all around the
edges and trim off flush with the table
edge. Either marble, tile or checker
board patterns look very neat.

COiffure for EIderIy Women

Modified COrOnet Is Efective-The
modified coronet is style much
affected by elderly women. and is par
ucularly becoming to a long or oval
shaped face. To make this arrange
ment the hair is fiuffed about the face,
then rolled back, preferably over the
tips of the ears, braided in the back,
the braids taken around the front part
of the head. At the base OF the braid
the hair is brought over to conceal its
beginning. and a high, narrow comb
is set in at this point.
The woman with small face and
body should first dress her front hair
in pompadour style, then bring all the
tresses softly to the crown of the
head. braid it there and take around
the head at the back of the pompadour,
finishing with the high comb.
There must be no drawn look about
this coinure. for the locks should be
loose mass from the nape of the neck
to the top of the hair where it is tied.
Any straining may be corrected by
pulling as necessary.
When the short woman possesses
hlgh forehead she can part her hair.
take IL back softly and arrange the
c0ronet braid on edge instead of plac-
ing fat on the head.
The majority of middle aged women
prefer the hair dressed on the crown
of the head. the front half taken back
in soft pompadour. This is a coiffure
that can scarcely be improved upon, as
is evidenced by the fact that 1T has
been in vogue so long.
The only change is that the fancy
ball hair pins have taken the place
Of the side combs as a decoration.
