The poor We always have with you.
Also Seven Days.
This whoop-along farce was present
ed at the Gennett last evening for the
third time-having been here twice
last season-and seemingly as much to
the amusement of the audience as
hitherto. As stated when it was seen
here the first time, it has enough
comedy situations to trick out half
dozen plays of it's class and is absurd
enough to make the most hardened
dyspeptic laugh. It's sentiment is,
however, of a rather maudlin charac-
ter and its effects made through ana
chronisms rather than legftimately
Some of the characters in last
nights production had "a reminiscent
flavor, as If left over from last season,
although the Exit" of the affair was
new to this town, and happily SO, be-
ing much longer on looks than her
predecessors.
However there is no particular use
going on about Seven Days" Every
body knows all about 1t and it's not
worth while to explain to those who
won't. The play isn't important en-:
ough to animadvert upon.
1t might be sad to the "drys," how
ever, to reflect that the telling COM
edy situations in the play hinge upon
the actions of a tipsy women. There's
nothing more disgusting than a wom-
an who has had a glass or two too
many, but in Seven Days." she is en-.
ormously funny.
Why is it that the stimulation of a
drunk" will always raise more laughs
than anything else besides the fire.
quent ejaculation of damn" A story
with damn in it will throw a religi-
GUS convention into Mysteries and will
always make theatric audience howl.
When it is analysed-what is there in
the little word damn" that is SO ex.
cruciatingly funny.
But do we not deserve something
better than the third presentation OF
Seven Days." seen here at the fag
of this season?
While. to be sure, it was preceded
by that dark blue classic, "Peck's Bad
Boy" and it might seem, therefore,
that we we're unduly exacting, still the
theater going public of this town has
one place to laugh in. May we not ex.
pect to have few tears at the Gen.
nett?
Where are those stars of dazzling
magnitude which may or may not have
been promised. As they wander
through the theatric armament, may
we not expect some of them to get in

Amount of Grain For Cattle.

The amount of grain that should be
given to cattle that are being finished
on the grass should be gagged by the
prospective time for selling and by
the condition Of the grass. When the
animals are to be sold early. as in June
or July. more grain or meal should
be fed than if marketed later, as in
August and September, When the
grass is really at its best, which usual
" is in the advanced weeks of June,
grain will not add much to the gains,
but it may and doubtless does lead
to the consumption of less pasture.
