WHAT EVERY WOMAN
WANTS" ISN'T CANDY

A much stronger bill than the
one of last week is being staged
at the Orpheum this week before
Christmas. There is nothing new
nor particularly sensational, all the
old familiars are there, including
the cyclists, versatile musician
and the inevitable black-face and
monologue acts, but each number
is good and sufficient unto itself.
Lillian Burkhardt the headliner,
presents a tempting little bit or
emotional acting in her playlet,
what Every Woman Knows" al
though from the title one might
gather that the sketch is of the
confectionery sort. The scenes
center around the usual theme OF
an estranged wife and husband and
the ones affinity for another, the
wife's affinity this time. AS the
maid who discovers her mistress
