cessor to his THE Chorus Lady and
"The Travelling Salesman Wilt be pre-
sented at the National Theater the week
of Monday, January 80, coming direct
from six months run at The Criterion
Theater. New York. In his two previous
dramatic efforts Mr.. Forbes has firmly
established himself as clever delinea-
tor of cotemporaneous types. In his
first play, "The Chorus Lady," Mr.. Forbes
took up the subject Of the chorus girls in
most refreshing manner. This was
followed by a four-act treatise on the
native drummer" and in his latest work
the author has sought out the thousands
Of men and women who ride to and from
the city on monthly tickets and has laid
the scenes Of his play in the house Of
what is commonly referred to- as q
'suburbanite' The original cast, in
Guiding Taylor Holmes, will be seen here.

TEACHING CHICKENS NOT TO
SCRATCH.

Everyone that has or has had a gar
den knows what a strain it is upon hU-
man endurance and friendship when
the next door neighbours chickens come
over the fence and scratch up flower
beds and vegetable gardens. says the
New York World. 1t is bad enough
when your own chickens do It.
Probably we have all forgotten that
forty years ago Stanford j. Baker of
Waterville, Me, invented a very in
genious device to prevent chickens
from scratching up the garden The in
ventiOn was patented, but like many
other curious inventions it is doubtful
whether anything was ever done to-
ward marketing it. Bakers invention
consisted of a piece Of spring wire bent
double, with a clamp at the bend. This
was secured to the chickens leg, leav-
ing the two ends of the wire extending
for some distance backward and slight
ly downward. Not only would this
hinder the hen from scratching, but
the spring arms would force her for
ward at each scratch. and il the hen
persisted in the attempt the device
would compel her to walk out of the
garden.
