Theater this week. playing the usual
Wednesday and Saturday matinees. and
presenting for the first time here his
musical comedy success, He Came
From Milwaukee" which won favor in
New York during two runs at the Casino

Sam Demands new play affords him
many new opportunities for ill-treating

querade as duke he gets into all sorts
Of mix-ups and the tongue twisting that
results when he strives to extricate HIM
self only serves to plunge him deeper.

whose country is torn by internal dissen-
sions. and who Is travelling incognito.

his title. hiding his own identity in the
personality of the brewer. Compiler
tons follow fast. An ambitious American
mother is determined to have her
daughter wed the bogus duke. In spite OF
the young woman's dislike for the crude
Teuton, who halls from milwaukee,. and
her strong preference for the real duke.
Won Schnellenvein boldly invades Zu-
rach where he Is seized as a spy and
condemned to death, only to be rescued
I'm the nick of time, and to have honors
heaped upon him as the duke, until the
real duke of the land discloses his iden-
tlty and everything is Strengthened out
satisfactorily.

up was. imperative. Going to IL was In a
manner likewise imperative. She said to
her conscience: IT will spend $50, no more,
on a frock for this special occasion" Firm
in that faith she went a-buyi'g, stating her
desires as clearly as possible, looking look
ing, and never finding what she sought at
the price she meant to pay More than
once resolution faltered-she almost fell for
chic gray voile, coarsely embroidered on
waist and sleeves. A silk OF sorts also
tempted her-but 1t was to a degree fussy,
one of, those things that, though pretty
enough on the model, require one to be
model for their proper wearing. Since 1t
was the season of bargains, gowns origi-
nally much costlier came within her price
but not one OF them quite suited her pur-
pose. In about the last of the big shops
she spied, hanging in glass closed press,

rich folk who can afford 70 throw away
things that have lost their first vogue,
