The Battle.
There is no doubt but what 'The
Battle is the greatest play that has
been seen in Richmond in many a day
and the Francis Sayles players are
packing the Murray theatre at each
performance. The play is well staged
and the members of the company are
all excellent in their parts. THE Bat

also tomorrow afternoon and night.
1.-THE Havoc"
Paul Gilmore's THE Havoc" play
by H. S. Sheldon which ran all last
season in New York, will be the en-
gagement at the Gennett theatre Mon
day, September s. This strong drama
has gained especial distinction be-
cause of the fact that it presents a
new treatment of the triangle" prob
lem. It's very title is due to its I'M
compromising revelation of "The
Havoc" that remains when the flames
of guilty passion have burned away.
From the wreck of domestic happi-
ness thus created there emerges CEN
trail figure of the sincerest strength,
the husband of the story's faithless
wife, and the daring novelty of an old
themes new handling is found in this
husbands action when he discovers
that his wife has a lover and instantly
adopts a means of punishment far
more effective than an appeal to "the
| unwritten law" THE Havoc" is pro-
duced by players specially chosen for
high artistic quality.

THE BEAUTIFUL MOUTH.
some Things 10 DO IL You Long to

To begin with. beautiful lips are mo-
bile and flexible. No matter how perfect
their contour. lips that are fixed and
tight are never attractive. Then. too.
holding the lips in a fixed position quick
ly ages the face and induces lines in IL
even less attractive than the line of the
mouth. Persons who make constant use
of their Iips-in laughter. conversation, or
singing-preserve the charm OF youth and
mobility in them that is not apt to be
apparent in those given to silence. This
alone indicates the necessity for exer-
else. and all beauty oulturists advise
exercise OF the lips 10 preserve a youth
ful face and keep the mouth flexible and
attractive.
Odd as IL may seem. II becomes quite
impossible TO cherish irritating thoughts
when the corners of the lips are turned
up fnsensibly little sprites OF happy
memories come dancing into the mind
and the lines about mouth smooth out
or take on sweet curves. Laughter Is
essential to a pretty mouth. Not the
consistant laughter that stretches the lips
and lines the cheeks. but that merrment
which keeps the lips flexible and drives
away burrows OF care.

In Switzerland. Wagner began to put
into shape the splendid conception of the
Nibelungen drama-"the most colossal
structure that ever entered the mind of
man. 'Tannhauser'' was produced at
the Grand Opera, and while the audience
took to the new music, the famous
Jockey Club hooted and whistled because
the ballet was SO early that. owing to
their late dinners. they missed their main
operatic amusement
There came to Wagner's rescue Lud-
wig III, who ascended the throne Of Ba-
varia at the age Of nineteen-a crazy
king. who was the making OF Richard
Wagner, whom he called his "word tone
postmaster" He gave Wagner a hand

sums to spend on his music From that

toward the zenith. His earlier music

He had married Cosima Won Bulow,

for ten years he lived an almost ideal

at Bayreuth in the festival of that year.
Broken in health and alarmed by heart

time. he went to Venice early in the
following year. and there. on the after
noon of February -. he died in the
arms Of his devoted wife.
Success came to Wagner in such meas
ure In his later years that he might have
died wealthy, but he was lavish in his
personal expenditures, and he paid out
great sums for the production of his
operas.

Nothing Would Please Them Better
As 10 the women themselves. many
of them listen to the talk OF home and
of womans place. and they wonder
why It is so hard for the practical and
the sentimental TO meet. FOR there are
days and days when nothing would
please them better than to work and
live in the home if they knew that their
WOrR was counting.
For the everage woman is not lured
to the world of business because she
loves the strife or carts at all for the
setting. She goes because in the great
nature-plan. by which all must abide
she must eat If she would live. must
be clothed and housed. must provide
or be provided with a living.
And the home cannot offer her any
thing but a sentimental return tor her
la Dor. And. though she might Wish
II quite otherwise, sentiment is not
effective in the payment of bills.
And many. many times, these women
who are protectingly, sentimentally con-
signed TO the retirement winch Is IneIr

that the tender talk is nothing. but talk.
because. alas for the difference between
fact and fancy, they must first make the
home before they can go to it
And they say II seems IKE leaving
