IN A MODERN PLAY

Charles B. Hanford in a modern

him in the great roles of the classic

with its surprise, for the prospect of
seeing a character of our own time
and people portrayed with the vivid
human interest which Mr.. Hanford

you will readily understand why this
promptly cures indigestion and re-
heves such symptoms as heartburn. a
feeling like a lump of lead in the
stomach, belching of gas and eructa-

nausea, headache, biliousness and
many other bad symptoms; and, be-

LAYING Good Foundations.

A man Of mediocre capacity and
equipment can stand only so much
and no more in the struggle for exist
ence. He may be able to 80 on
steadily with his work. moving in
the same old ruts, accomplishing the
same results and doing just precise
ly the quality and quantity Of work
that he has always done, but let a
little new blood be infused into his
task. few new ideas be introduced
into its management. and he will
probably find 1t such uphill work
to keep pace with modern methods
that he will be far outstripped and
felt behind to his narrow, roped-in,
unprogressive existence. An article
in the current number of Success
Magazine compares men in such a
condition to buildings which have
either fallen down or been taken
down because their owner tried to
build one or more stories on the
top of an old building which did
not have sufficient foundation to
carry the new structure" Men who
have but insecure foundations upon
which to build will find their houses

Buy BATTLE AXE" SHOES.


From time to time, man who
writes things for the current prints
especially the weekly magazines
which make a speciality of comment
and criticism on literary matters
thinks 1t is his duty to discover
something which may show that he
is very modern-quite the opposite
to an antediluvian fossil.
Such a man in such a mood was
he who lately in the Literary Digest
stated that all art, to prove endur-
ing must be based on the contempor-
airy life of any land in which it sees
the light; that poetry, for instance,
cannot gain respect and admira-
ton If it lack such a national and
present-day basis.
Surely, this statement must have
been written for some other purpose
than mere truth or art; because,
unless the writer be the versiest tyro,
he is sure to know that it is quite
untenable. Is Goethe's Faust" of
any age or land2 Is Shakespeare's
Hamlet" grounded on "contempor-
aneous national life?" Is our own
poets lyric masterpiece. "Annabel
Lee" a poem "of the PRESENT." No,
indeed And yet the three have
gained beyond a doubt-and held
for many years-the true respect
and admiration" of all reading folk.
The Literary Digest writer's phase
seems too absurd for contravention.
But the very contrary of what he
says may be laid down with justice
as a rule.-Chicago Inter Ocean.
