For years the prejudice existing be-

privilege and injustice.
Canada in those days was divided
into two provinces, known as Upper
and Lower Canada. and while Mac

Upper Canada, Nj. Papineau was
struggling with the corrupt powers OF
Lower Canada. The latter was. de-

reason and another do not marry. and go to their graves an honorable and useful. but pathetic procession of women de- prived of their birthright."
 This is what he says, and then with tho inconsistency usually attributed to the other sex, he insists that the present re- gime must continue, that. fortunately for humanity great conservative force will hold any progressive movement In check. and with the cheerful acquiescence which is his distinguishing feature and one of his charms, he gazes smilingly at the honorable and useful but pathetic process sion" marching to their graves.
 No good woman will question MT. Mar tins first statement. There are only two classes of women who set other ideals ahead of that of having children, train- ing them well. making them healthy and honorable. able-bodied and high-minded. and giving them hope enough to meet life with. There are only two classes willing to set any other ambition ahead of this: the pampered and the prosti- tuted
 There has always been certain diver gence between the mans ideal of woman and the woman's ideal of herself. and 1t would be unwise to lose sight of the fact that if the woman in making herself the woman she believes she ought to be. is about to lose the respect or the honor or the love of man, the purposes of the race are being thwarted again. It Is inn possible to make canvass of middle aged couples to find out which kind of married woman has held her husbands allegiance-the class that for lack of a better term we may call the ornamental dolls, or the class who looked upon them- selves as responsible beings.

The two men leased a building, went In for making life preservers. But the secret had not been discovered, although Hayward was on the right scent-in hot weather it seemed a wrong one to purchasers of the life pre- servers. Goodyear was not dismayed.
 After more experiments he took a con- tract to make 50 rubber bags for the gov ernment, and advertised his good luck. The bags were a credit to his skill, but in July the handles dropped off and the substance melted His friends advised him to go back to hardware The wolf was again at the door, and Goodyear had to divide time in the of kitchen oven with his wife. He was always bak- ing the compound of sulphur and rubber, but with no satisfactory results. Yet he was 'warm," as they say in the chill dren's game. One night while gesticulat- ing on his favorite theme with piece of sulphurated gum it came in contact with q redhot stove. Instead of melting as usual the stuff charred like leather. Was very high heat needed to harden rubber? The enthusiast trembed with anticipation. But there was the cold-it was winters night. Would the mass lose its aexibility in the freezing air? Goodyear nailed 1t against the house. The next morning the compound was as elas- tic as ever. He had discovered yulvaniza- ton.
 The secret was that rubber. with a slight adrnixture of sulphur hardened and lost Its adhesiyeness. but not its fiexibili- ty when subjected to temperature of from 200 to 270 degrees Fahrenheit. Neither heat nor cold afterward affected 1t but it can be overvulvanized into what is known as ebonite. Goodyear perfected his processes, took out a patent, and for IA years fought infringements in the courts until Judge Grier decided in his favor in 1852

REWARD OF PERSISTENCE
How Yankee Struggled With Rubbe
 And Finally Won

From the New York Mall.
 Rubber has done a good deal for civil i2ation, and civilization has done great deal for rubber but both are indebted to
 Charles Goodyear.
 Goodyear was a Connecticut Yankee,
 born at Naugatuck, December 29 1900; those now living who remember him in the flesh know him as frail little nian with soulful eyes and a sympathetic nature. Goodyear, after devoting the energies of hls life to experiments, discovered vul- canization a process which neutralzes the adhesiveness of rubber, while harden ing 1t, so that heat does not dissolve 1t or cold impair its elasticity. The chem ists had sought the great secret in vain Triumph was reserved for man who was always in debt and sometimes in prison, and occasionally reduced to the most pitt ful shifts to keep the wolf from the door.
 Goodyear was originally hardware dealer in a small way, but he got inter- ested In rubber when it began to make stir In the world with the first importa- tion of shoes from Brazil. They were soon being made in New England but the business tumbled to ruin when tho rub Der decomposed in hot weather and gave out an offensive odor. No one had a good word to say for the stuff-it sold for 5 cents a pound in the general disgust-but Goodyear, although without money or credit, got to work to rehabilitate the reputation of gum elastic, as he always called it. He thought of rubber all day and dreamed of 1t all night. and 1t ad- hered to his hands and clothing so that they were one and indivisible. 'If you meet man." said some one who wanted to describe the inventor, "who has on an Indian rubber cap. stock, coat, vest and shoes, with an India rubber purse without A cent of money in 1t. that is Goodyear.
 In chasing what seemed to his friends will-o'-wisp, Goodyear was often in the pawnshops He once left his umbrella with Cornelius Vanderbilt for some ferry tickets and at another time sold his chil- dren's school books for s, which he need ed for his experiments. But he had de- voted family, like geniuses, and his wife and children were just as much wrapped up In rubber as he was. To harden his gum elastic Goodyear mixed magnesla with it and turned out some shoes beau tiful to look at, for the man had the ar tistic sense, but, as usual, they decom- posed. He thought h, mad hit upon the secret with nitric acid, took out patent and embarked in the business of making shoes and toys. Bad times swept away his profits before he learned that he had made another failure, and there were more visits to the pawnshop.
 About this time Goodyear met Nathan iel Hayward, who was fussing with rub Der in a factory at Woburn, where he was regarded as a harmless crank. To Hayward it was revealed in a dream that rubber could be hardened by mixing sul-

 In writing 'sThe Smart Set" the author had no idea, it is said, of appealing for white patronage. The play is frankly an effort to please the colored population That in its field it has proved success Is evidenced by the great patronage that has been accorded this company wherever 1t has appeared.
 As the white population do not seem in ferested in this attraction it has been deemed best by the local management to let the colored theatregoers have the en- tire house at the Jefferson theatre Mon- day night.
 Vaudeville Discusses Laughs-P1eas-
 ant md Unpleasant
 will c. Vaudeville of Charles Froh- mans '"The Dollar Princess company, which plays an engagement at the Jeffer- Son theatre in the near future has sev- erai interesting things to say on laughs, encountered by the comedian in his ef- forts to amuse an audience.
 There are two varieties of laughs which stage comedian comes in contact with in his efforts to amuse his audi ence," says MT Vaudeville. One is as welcome to him as the first breath of spring, while the other Is like a sudden cold spell on the road before he has had his winter clothing sent on from home."
 The first one is the laugh that every true comedian strives for, the spontane- ous and hearty Cha, ha." that comes as a reward for his work. Or again it may be a chuckfe from the fat man in the bald headed row or a ripple of quiet laughter through the entire theatre, but whatever fhe nature of 1t, 1t is just as pleasing to the comedian when he knows that it Is due to his acting.
 The second one is of an entirely diff ferent sort and it is the one thing mex, to the cry of Fire in the theatre that the comedian dreads. This Is the laugh that results In some unforeseen mishap. The laugh that Is not expected or wanted by the man back of the footlights. It may be caused by cat walking out on the stage by the wrong lines being spoken, by the mispronouncing of a word or the teSring of garment. In fact there are hundreds of little things that are likely to occur to the actor that will bring on this unwelcome mirth on the part of his audience.
 There Is always the fellow in the au- dience that laughs at the wrong time; the hysterical woman and the local com edian or village cut-up, and it is these three types that make life a burden for the stage comedian. It is not honest

Virginia Harmed

Virginia Harned
 Few of her sisters of the stage succeed in getting as effective results out of tenn pestuous emotionalism as does Virginia Harmed. She has achieved much fame in n number of her own created types of the woman who has suffered" in one way or another, and today she stands perhaps as far forward as any actress on the American stage, who is capable of por- traying such characters.
 The Harmed methods find their best ex- ponents in line of the most distin- gushed of emotional stage favorites, who
