DON'T BE A POUTER.

DON'T BE POUTER.
Don't be pouter-don't be sulker.
The time you put in pouting is absolutely wasted
1t you are one of those boys or girls or men or
women who cannot take suggestion without getting
mad, then you are not growing as fast your -
sition is.
The people who get promotions are those who take
suggestion and try it out TRY IT. that's the point
Inc party who listens to suggestion and then tests it
out Is the one who knows The pouter does not advance
because he DOES NOT TRY
During the time he is in sulk his head is not
Worklng-he is not doing any good for himself or any
one else That time is absolutely lost to the party who
1ees sore" Nine times out of ten, the suggestion is
given in the best of hmor and faith and often by some
one who knows that what he is telling if put into prac
tce will be good for the party he is talking to- but the
pouer doesn't take advantage of it. because he gets
mad at what he ought to welcome
The man who is trying to grow and to make bet
ter the position he holds not the fellow who is look
ing for something to get mad about He welcomes sug
gestions The employer foreman does not care to beat
around the bush with hinl-he knows that that man
trying all the time and that he doesn't suk even when
"called down."
business man, in talking about two young men
who had entered his employ at the same time said:
One OF these young men will get ahead faster
than the other"
Why do you say that?"
Because he is not sulker-if he is doing some
thing wrong and tell him so he listens attentvely and
then good naturally and in thoughtful Manner tries
to do it right The other fellow smited-he resents it.
when tell him to do something in way different from
that in which he is doing it. The other doesn't want
to waste any Of his time mine trying to work up an
imaginary case in his mind against me. He just
goes ahead-there is no limit to hm-there is to the
other one"
That tells the whole story-one Of these boys does
the work-the other gets in rut that is so deep he
can't see over the sdes-he makes himself dissatisfied
He gets distanced in the The business can't
wait for him. neither can his friend They finally separ-
atethe cheerful worker goes up another round the
ladder and the suker does no-he tries to make others
dssatisfed-he finally becomes hindrance-is in the
way His pouting is stood for for WHILE but finally he
is discharged and it is hard for him to realize why The
is pain-he wouldn't try to profit by the knowl
edge Of others. He was in the wayne was cog that
couldn't be made to fit He stopped the progress Of all
those below him and had to get out Of the way Of those
who wanted to advance.
The way to go ahead is to help pull the load-you
can't advance yourself by holding back.

announced is this weeks offering, when
they will present Carmen" on Monday
Tuesday, and Wednesday nights, and
Wednesday matinee. devoting the re-
mainder Of the week and the Saturday

fore, will appear at all four perform
ances in this part. Jane Abercrombie

the Zuniga, George Shields the Dan:
cairo, Philip Fem the Remendado. and
Zoe Fulton the Mercedes.
For the last half of the week Flotow's
delightful Martha" will be presented.
While this opera is given as grand
opera, 1t is technically designated as a
comic opera. and its great popularity
is mainly ascribed to the beautiful
melody which pervades It. and to It's
light and attractive character.
The central role will be sung at all
four performances by Regina Vicarino.
who has scored in this part with the
Aborn companies in other cities. The
same two tenors heard in Carmen"
will divide the role of Lionel in Mar
tina" Mr. Stewart will have the bari
tone role Of Plunkett, Mr. Waterous

Miss Bradford has been engaged for the
role Of Nancy and Val Romans for
that Of the Sheriff. -,
At all performances of Martha"
Caesar Sodero will be the conductor,
while Giuseppe Angelina will occupy the
same position at all presentations OF

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Season.

Owing to the increasing popularity OF
the Aborn English Grand Opera Com
pany at the National Theater the man
aeement and Messrs. Aborn have de-
cided to extend the season here. AS a
result a bill of unusual charm to music
lovers has been arranged for next week.
Faust will be sung Monday. Tuesday,
Wednesday nights, and Wednesday mat
inee, and the operas for Thursday. Fri
day, Saturday nights and Saturday
matinee will be "Cavalleria Rusticana"
and "Pagliacci."
Faust with its charming music
ranks with the most popular operas in
modern repertoire, and is special fav-
orite here in Washington. Masca gni 8
"Cavaileria Rusticana" would be popu-
lar for nothing else but its intemezzo:
however this one-act opera is filed with
charming music, and although OF mod
ern date is one of the operas which one
never grows tired of hearing. "Pag-
liacci," by Leoncaallo, has become popu-
lar throughout the world since II was
written. The highly dramatic story of
this opera and its beautiful music make
an artistic combination unusually effec-
tive and popular

In addition to The Lottery Man,
Lionel Belmore, the stage director OF

Fuller Mellish appear at the conclu-
sion of the performance in the one-act
play Waterloo" in which he appeared

self as prize husband in a newspa per
lottery. Coupons were sold at 81 each
by the thousands and the winning num-
Der was to have the young man. In the
meantime this venturesome reporter
falls in love with a charming girl, and
the ensuing complications form one of
the jolliest farces of recent years
Nothing may be written about THE
Lottery Man without mentioning Liz
zie. the somewhat ancient maiden who
has been a joy to those with heavy
hearts. Lizzie is the last word In a sad
and disappointed temininity, with no
lifeline in sight except her ticket in
the lottery. Would such a woman sac
rifice her victory? Not much. For Lizzie
wins the prize husband-to-be. While
audiences laugh over Lizzie's victory, It
is no joke for the reporter, and what
would have become of his sweet romance
If a mere butler had not discovered that
Lizzie had acquired the winning ticket
is hard to determine But
Lizzie is found out, is forced to yield her
claim. and eventually marries the po-
liceman, and all ends as it should In
play written solely for laughing pur-
poses.

Cyril Scott's role Of Jack Wright. the
reporter, and II would be hard to find a
part that would suit him better,
