surprise US as greatly as the appear
ance of a hitherto unknown So Jane
Oaker appeared to us out of the mlSts
of her proverbial beauty, and her long
leading ladyship, as an actress of new
and welcome road acquired strength
She is a grim teacher, The Road, and
she is believed to make her actors care
less and spiritless; but she is a superb
disciplinarian and some times her pu-
pills have come back to Manhattan,
chastened as by fire and beautified by
the great light of experience. On the
road Jane Oaker has developed an I'M
suspected and most welcome strength.

The following plant has been re-
ceived by the State Journal from a
Topeka woman which proves that
troubles of a householder are varied:
I'm regard to publishing the names of
people who do not keep the weeds cut,
] would like to say have been a resi-
dent of Topeka about one year and
in that time have found it almost i'm
possible to get any kind of work done,
no matter how willing one is to pay
for it. I have by dint of pleading
gotten my front yard and park moved
q lew LlIueS, paying a dollar IOr ABOUT
one-hah hours work, and have Of
fered to pay at the same rate if they
would cut and clean out the weeds
in the back yard; but no, they had to
go down town. A great many people
would be willing to pay literally for
this if the city will find the workmen
to do it and do it right"
