When the scene was over Maitland said with smile:
"Now, Mr.. Habersham, if YOU will be the old lady,
will give you my big in the third act. You can
member some lines, no doubt"
Then Maitland gave his big scene, full of
comic force sparkling with repartee, dazzling scene,
warranted to captivate audience. When he got
through, Habersham suddenly cried OUT

he met Studley who was one broad grin.

tragedy is tragic enough; but the production of farce
is five times tragic.
The rehearsal began. Habersham was much encour
aged by the fact that Maitland merely walked through
his part and did not attempt to act it. That is very
good sign of actor who is of himself. Not a
single break made by Maitland, not was
missed. His knowledge of the play surprising
that light began to dawn upon the whole company.
The rehearsal lasted three hours, and then the whole
company scampered off to get that last meal before the

The audience began to manifest its

THE first act was nearing its close,
when Maitland and Dorothy, going
off the stage at the same moment, found
themselves face to face in the drafty

voice took on studied anger, which to

in the mysterious gulf of the orchestra:

"And the Kent girl 4 star of the first

Studley.
Understands words made Maitland
happy; but the sight of Lorimer, the
leading man, made him feel for the first
time in his life the base passion of envy.
Lorimer was so strong. SO 1.-THE, so SPLEEN
didly robust; and he-he managed not
to cough except when the orchestra was
playing.
At last it was over. and the musicians
put up their instruments and the COM
pany trooped out. While Maitland
waited for chance to slip out, he heard
a sudden commotion and a running to
and fro out in the big lobby at the front.
Something stronger than himself seized
him and dragged him to the door. There
he halted. Somebody was hurt and be
ing taken to the hospital, so much Matt

the lobby and came face TO face with

gone and she was white as snowdrop.

II. DOs,sIu. Of Democracy.

Joseph w. Folk, in recent
speech at democratic banquet at
St. Paul, defined his idea of de-
mocracy in these words:
Democracy is religion; the
religion of brotherhood among
men and of equal rights for all.
II is a religion that would demand
more of the Golden Rule and less
of the rule of gold in government
and in our daily lives. 1t would
not array class against class, but
would protect the rights of all by
having each respect the rights of
the other. 1t would not attack
wealth honestly acquired, but
would wage amending war against
the privileges that produce faint
ed riches on one side, and unde-
served poverty on the other side.
1t would protect property rights
but would recognize the fact that
property rights are best protect
ed by preserving inviolate the
public rights. 1t would not COM
bat men, but the evil that men do.
1t would seek a remedy for ex-
isting evils, not less government
by the people. 1t would place
conscience above cunning, and
the public good above private
greed. 1t would not offer a man
an advantage in the shape of a
subsidy or bounty, or protective
tariff, enabling him to make mon
ey at the expense of his fellow
men, but it would assure him
that it would give no one else
suck a special privilege over him.
1t would guarantee to all an equal
opportunity to live and labor and
enjoy the gains of honest toll.
This Is democracy as un-
l.derstand it."

Known By Their Company.

II 10 an undisputed fact that a
young man is known by the COM
'panyi he keeps. This is just as
true OF the young boy, for the
company the boy seeks shows
what the young man is very apt
to be unless something should
happen to, turn him in another
direction. 1t is not necessary
that the company should be rich
or finely dressed, or live in a fine
house; because the boy that has
to shift for himself. and often
for others. is many times the best
of his kind, if he shifts the right
way. A clean moraled boy,
thonghtful.and earnest and de-
string to make the most of him
self must not choose low, immor-
al or idle boys for companions.
