The two act burletta is en- titled The Boys from Home The plot is a most interesting one and finds it's climax in triple love affair. Complications arise galore and the dro1Ieries enanating from, the novel and cleverIy constructed story are so manifold and of such splenedid humor, that the auditor Is kept in a hilarious spell throughout the action of the of fering.

Alcott, and which, although published 43 years ago, still enjoys a. tremendous sale, will be presented in dramatic form at the Park theatre for three days commencing Monday April 21st, with special bargain matfnees Tuesday and Wednesday. The difficulties which arose in securing the consent of living members of the Ahcott family to transferring Little Women to the stage were many. It was only after many arguments that one of Miss AL cott's nephews who, himself had been a character in the story, was convinc- ed that nothing offensive would re- suit from reproducing Little Wom- en- The play is in four acts and two scenes, showing the March sitting room. and the Plumffeld apple orchard at harvest time.

 'T mean it," said, the king, relieving the tensity of the situation.
 ''I have been sounding the sentiment of the people. They think-and, right ly, too-that it was you and not me that caused BoFroviua to become the prosperous country that it is. They really look upon you as their rightful ruler. Your opinions are recognized as law. If the country continued as kingdom there is no telling when we would have trouble again with the prince and his followers. I have gone over the matter carefully, too, since heard that you were about to leave the country. Just so sure as you did there would be another uprising, and I would be sure to be dethroned.
