LUCKY SHAKESPEARE!
Magazine Critic Says Bard of Avon
Had "Cinch" Compared With
Modern Playwright.

Although, on the face of it, play
writing seems infinitely more simple
than story-writing, the task is far
and away more difficult-more diff
cult today even than it was in
Shakespeares time. when the dra-
matist was permitted to change the
scene as often as he liked. for the
very good reason that there wasn't
any scenery to be shifted. Now you
are restricted to four acts, as rule;
and II you require n change of set
in any one of them, you diminish
the chances OF your pays accept
ance by that much Thus you are
obliged to make ii seem reasonable
that your characters will be in only
four different places throughout the
entire action of the piece.
Again, in a story destined for print
your flow of thought is not being
constantly interrupted by the exigen-
cies Of looking after stage business.
For instance, you send the servant
after a letter or newspaper. In a
play, you must remember to calcu-
late about the time it would take him
to find 1t, and then make a break In
your main thread to bring him back
on the scene and set down few words
of dialogue to mark the close of the
incident. Meanwhile, you may have
forgotten the brilliant idea that had
suggested itself to you for the next
speech.
once more, in a play you must
condense into three hours-or about
twenty thousand words-a story
which, in the form of novel, would
cover from three TO four hundred
printed pages, containing eighty or a
hundred thousand words. OF late, to
increase the dramatist's difficulties,
the managers have evinced a decided
preference for plays with consecutive
action-that Is to say, with no inter-
val of more than a night at most, be-
tween acts. Then you must also re-
member that It Is not wise to burden
your play with more than fourteen
characters with a carefully graded al
lotment of work for each one-un-
less you are writing for a star, when
you are in bad case indeed. placed
between the Scylla of the lady her.
self, who demands everything, and the
| Charybdis of the critics, who will chide
you for giving 1t to her.-Matthew
White, Jr., in The Munsey.

SAYS QU|N|NE WILL
NOT BREAK A COLD
HOW TO CURE COLDS AND
GRIPPE IN A FEW HOURS

You will distinctly feel your cold
breaking and all the grippe symptoms
leaving after taking the very first
dose.
1t Is a positive fact that Pape's Cold
Compound, taken every two hours,
until three consecutive doses are ta-
ken, will end the grippe and break
up the most severe cold, either In the
head, chest, back, stomach or limbs.
1t promptly relieves the most mis-
erable neuralgia pains, headache, dull
ness. head and nose stuffed up, fe-
verishness. sneezing. sore throat, run
ming of the nose, mucous catarrhal
discharges, soreness, stiffness and
rheumatic twinges.
Pape's Cold Compound Is the result
of three years research at a cost of
more than fifty thousand dollars and
contains no quinine, which we have
conclusively demonstrated is not eff
fective in the treatment of colds or
grippe.
Take this harmless compound as
directed, with the knowledge that
there is no other medicine, made any
where else in the world which will
ture your cold or end grippe misery
as promptly and without any Other
assistance or bad after-effects as q

OVERTURNING BOSSISM.
How New Hampshire's New Governor
Won without Railroad 'Ring."

One day along toward the autumn of
1904, a young man drove down the
hilly Main street in Peterboro, New
Hampshire, and stopped in front of
a lawyers office. He had barely turn
ed thirty years, and he looked very
boyish; but he had an air of quiet de-
termination that would have singled
him out in crowd In the doorway
of the building he met the man he
was seeking-the local republican
boss. one of that far-reaching railroad
ring that extended to the remotest
sections of the commonwealth.
II want to run for the legislature"
said the young man.
You can't, Bob" was the reply he
got. "It's all fixed. In time you may
be allowed to run"
But suppose the people want me?''
persisted the young man.
The lawyer laughed.
"There is no such thing as the peo-
pie in this state" he said.
The young man made no threats,
but the next day he began to visit the
farmers in the county. He told them
that he was going to have his name
up in the caucus.
whats the use?" they said. "It's
all cut and dried"
ITS worth trying if you will only
come" he urged.
The night of the caucus was cold
and drizzly, just the kind of weather
to keep the farmers at home by their
comfortable stoves and firesides. But
a good many showed up, greatly tc
| the surprise of the Bosses who had
been in the habit of putting their pro.
gram through with a handful OF
henchmen. More surprising than thi.
was the young mans nomination OF
the first ballot. Thus Robert Perkins
Bass entered into the politics of New
Hampshire, thereby waxing the firs
step toward public career that makes
him today a figure of nationwide in
terest and significance. ....

Poultry Slumping.

There Is a weaker feeling in the
poultry market and while as yet there
Is practically 30 change In prices the
probability is that dealers will be
forced to shade quotations within the
next few days in order to/unloaS
There has been a noticeable de-
crease in the wants of the poultry
trade during the past few days. There
is scarcely a dealer who has not car
ried over few coops of chickens
within that period because of the more
limited demand
Whether the trade this week will
turn out to be much like that of last
week-when there was dullness dur
ing the fore part and strength later
remains to be seen, but the trade in
general feels that quotations are in for
a slight shading.
This applies prlncipaiIy TO the or
dinary run of chickens. There Is
quite a good call for ducks and tur-
keys and cleanups of these are re-
ported daily by receivers.
