HUNTER

In WIncbcll Smiths comedy OF
American life, "The Fortune Hunt
err the hero, Nat Duncan, a debonair
ne'er.do-well, iss taken in hand. after
a series of failures, by n college
chum, who is getting on rapidly In
the world. This chum guarantees to
show him how TO make a million dol
lars, If he will follow certain rules to
be laid down by him. He leads up to
the rules by declaring that the bright
and attractive young men leave the
country towns, but the majority of
the girls of prosperous families re-
main. with the result that a well
dressed. fascinating city man who set
ties down and gets acquainted can
practically pick his bride among the
wealthy girls of the village.
Here are the rules for making
million by marriage
Move into little dull town,
Dress very plainly and very Gle
gantly
Don't drink; don't smoke; don't
swear.
Go to church.
Board with an old widow If you
can find one.
Have many serious books and
large Bible on your table where ev
cry one can see them Let the wild
ow see You studying all the while.
Don't pay any attention to young
women
Get job; work hard
I'm every little town there is at
least one girl worth a million Live
as / tell You and she'll propose to
you." says Kellogg TO Nat Duncan
II don't ask you to propose TO her
for her money. That would be dis
honorable. Then you accept her and
marry her and give me back the $500
that | am going to lend you, and pay
me $1,000 more, and | shall feel that
/ have made good business invest
ment''
The advice OF the friend who lends
$500 works perfectly. The richest
girl in the town asks the Young for
tune hunter 10 marry her But the
play has no such sordid end
The young man finds that hard work
alone can make life worth while And
he finds that simple, earnest girlwith
no money, is a great deal better than
any money or anything else
This Is a wholesome play, amusing.
