Dseven Days" Highly Entertaining.

The offering at the Colonial theater
last evening was Seven Days" and
there has not been play presented
during the entire season that can
equal it in its humorous clmaxes and

the worthy company. Each part is

people who don't know any better are
committing curious crimes with it.
They do not overload themselves
with 1t as they used to. The woman
whose jabot laces are turned into a
kind of shop window of brooches and
necklaces nowadays happily stamps
herself as a vulgarity. too ancient tc
