NEW YORK LETTER

pleasing new comedy, "The
Bridal PATH" by Thompson Blu
chanan. 1t deals with the strug-
gle of two women for possession
of a man. One is an adventur-
ess, the other a pastless young
lady, albeit strong-minded, and
with pronounced ideas on sex
questions.
The battle is hard fought, and
the adventures loses - of
course. The play is extremely
well written, and contains many
thoroughly amusing situations.
Robert Warwick, Ann Murdoch
and Lucille Watson do excellent
work in the leading roles, and
Mrs. Charles c. Craig's delinea-
tion Of a colored nanny has
won her high praise.
A notable production of the
week is Gabriel Schilling' s
Flucht," by Gerhardt Haupt-
mann, most noted of present-day
German playwrights, and winner
of the Nobel prize in literature
last December. But it is only
for those who understand the
authors tongue, as it is being
performed in German at the
Irving Place theater. Even so,
it is drawing crowded houses.
Thomas A. Edison's moving
talking pictures are having their
first production at the Colonial
theater, and have scored a great
success. The inventor was be-
hind the scenes at the first per-
Torrance, but refused to respond
to persistent calls for "Author!"

All women get bilious, head
achy and constipated-simply be-
cause they don't exercise enough.
They don't eat coarse food, or
enough fruit and green vegetables.
Those are natures ways of keep
ing the liver and thirty feet of
bowels active; but very few wom-
en- employ them. The next best
way is delightful fruity Syrup of
Figs.
Nearly all ills OF women can be
overcome with Syrup OF Figs
alone. There is no need to have
sick headache. backache, dizziness
stomach sour and full of gases
bilious spells, sallowness, coated
tongue, bad breath, bad COM

What'll Stop
Sour Stomach?
They Act Quick and Relief Is Al.
most Immediate.

Iney ACT quick ana ReIlef is Al.
most Immediate.
There are some things so ex-
actly right to mention them
brings calm and repose. And to
use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
gives the stomach just that kind
of lift that makes your check up
one hundred per cent to the good.
Particularly is this true with
those who suffer with sour stom-
ach. You feel so mean that you
actually hate yourself. And yet
in a few minutes these tablets
sweeten the stomach, arrest un-
natural fermentation, start a
powerful digestive action and pre-
vent the formation of gas.
They are composed of only
such digestants as are approved
by the very best of physicians.
Real, live, progressive people
want to be around where the
activities of life embrace what
ever circumstances dictate. If a
house party serves a Welsh rare
bit go to it. 1t isn't the easiest
thing in the world to digest, tits
true, but what of It? Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets will take care
of you, keep your stomach in con-
troll and your dreams won't see
an army of hobgoblins playing
hobs with your nerves. Many
physicians regularly prescribe Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets for the
stomach disorders of patients
who are i'll with some constitu-
tional malady. They do so for
the reason that these tablets are
not a patent medicine and their
composition is known and recog-
nized as the most approved and
most powerful of all digestants.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
sold and recommended by all
druggists at soc Q boz.

AT THE TACOMA


There was nothing naughty
about "a Night Out" at the Ia
coma, as the name might indi-
cate. 1t is a very proper play
and gives May Robson, the come
dienne, an opportunity to display
her talents. The plot is impos-
sible, but you forget that in
watching Miss Robson. In her
support, Paul Decker shows hlIc-
self a lively chap, and Kathleen
Comegys and Winifred Bryson
make two pretty sweethearts for
"Granmum's" miss Robson)

1.-THE Rose Maid,"- Werba and
Luescher's latest operate success
which broke all records for large
audiences at the Globe theater,
New York city, is described as an
immense spectacle as we'll as a
romantic light opera of the mod
ern school. One of the most
heartily applauded scenes of this
Vienesse WORK is the brilliant re-
view of the cavalry of all nations
in the second act. Unmounted
horsemen and horsewomen of the
various countries appear in native
costumes and perform lively
drill to tuneful gallop that is
one of the operas whistling hits.
Werba and Luescher will send
THE Rose Maid to this city next
Sunday and Monday, while it is
still at the height of its popu-
larity and while the tuneful music
is still fresh.

NEW YORK, Feb. 22.-Still
they come-another crook play
has been added to the long, long
list of which alias Jimmy Val
entine" was the first and within
the Law" the best.
The latest is THE Master
Mind" in which a most villain
GUS butler, possessor of the afore-
said mind, plots the ruin of his
employer, an amiable young
gentleman, by trade district
attorney, who had several years
previously sent the buffers
brother to the electric chair.
The buffers plot is compli-
Gated, and involves the ensnare-
ment Of the district attorney by a
fascinating young lady crook,
who is to marry him and then
ruin his public career by disclos-
ing what perfectly awful per-
son she really is.
But the Master Mind succumbs
in the closing act to an attack of
suits in his own reformation
and happiness, and the abandon
ment of his wicked schemes.
Edmund Breese plays the
Master Mind creepily. RATHER
inc La Sale is captivating as the
siren, and Elliott Bexter gives a
pleasing performance as the dis
trict attorney.
AL Woods is said to have paid
100000 for the American
rights of 1.-THE Miracle" which
is Maeterlinck's "Sister Beatrice"

the accompaniment of a 75-piece

"Koenigskinder." The perform
ance is drawing well at the Park

A CORRECTION.
Editor Gazette:

EDITOR Gazette:
There appeared in the Gazette of
yesterday an article the purport of
which was to the effect that the AL
exandria Trades Council had indorsed
Mr.. John Thompson Brown for Com
missioner of Agriculture. This is not
strictly true. As matter of fact the
Trades Council has not taken any ac-
ton in this matter at all The Labor
Day Committee of the Trades Council
Did however, adopt resolutions, which
while distinctly disclaiming any de-
sire or intention to indorse any candi-
date for the office of Commissioner of
Agriculture, did express its confidence
in the executive board of the State
Federation of Labor and declared that
in the opinion of the committee the
executive board adopted the only
course open to it under the conditions
which confronted it.
l should be glad to have you make
this correction.

MOUNT VERNON AVENUE &!
Attractive Book Published By A. J
Wedderburn BY Authority of the
Association

This latest publication on Mount
Vernon Avenue is the most interest
ing which has as yet come from the
press. It abounds in fine illustrations
and maps of the proposed route OF
this contemplated boulevard which
there is reason to believe will soon be
constructed.
The conception of Mount Vernon
Avenue was by Alexandrians years
ago, and while the project has been
sidetracked from time to time, the
originators, some of our best known
and most influential citizens, have
never lost hope. At times the plan
was near the crystallizing point, but
for one reason or another Congress
generally adjourned before final ac-
! ton could be taken.
! Money sufficient to make surveys
of the route was however approprla-
ted . long time ago.
! The late Mayor John B Smoot was
the first president of the Mount Yer
non Association; VIM. B. Smoot, and
E E .Downham, wee presidents, and
NJ. B. Harlow, secretary and treas
urer. The late Frank Hume was a
vice president of the association, and
he manifested great interest In the
movement. General Peter c. Hams,
u. S. A., made the survey.
This entertaining book contains
many local pictures of historic IN
terest in Alexandria and vicinity, as
well as pictures of prominent Alexan'
! drians who are working in the inter
ests of the proposed boulevard. It
will be distributed freely among Con-
gressmen and others and will doubt
less increase interest in the move
ment and aid in the realization. of
; the hopes of all concerned.
