Comparative Successes

In these facts are to be found the real
reasons for the recent comparative sue
cesses of American shows in England.
Such productions as "Offioer $685. Get
Rich-Quick- Wallngford' and Bought
and Paid For are loosely spoken of as
London successes, but the box offices
could tell different stories. Take the last
named as an instance. Well nigh every
critic in London exhausted superlatives
In reviewing it's opening, and it was diff
fcult to figure how 1t could prove to be
anything but a huge success. Yet when
I dropped into the New theatre, where
1t is being played, a few evenings ago,
the house was not more than half full
and GONE of that was paper. This, in
spite of the fact that the play has been
running little more than a fortnight.
Practically the same story holds true of
"Get-Rich- Quick wellingford," which is
playing at the Queens. although that
comedy has been running for some time
and 1t is not strange, perhaps. that empty
seats are beginning to be noticed.
As you probably know, the last named
play was put on In England by Arthur
Collins of Drury Lane fame, who formed
a syndicate to finance the venture Col
Inns hit upon a happy and we hope
prophetic idea In naming his company.
] see by the heading of note which
he has Just sent to me that the play is
run by the "G. r.. Q. Syndicate which,
Of course means the Get Rch-QuiclS

Miss Wynee's Brilliant Success


After the sugar and water of Temple
rhurston's Greatest Wish in the World"
at the Garrick, and the colossal inepti-
tude Of "The Happy Island" at His
Majestys theatre, showing Sir Herbert
Tree at his worst, London has been
recompensed by two other first nights
that made up for previous sufferings. Ar
mold Benefits "1'he Great Adventure
Mt the Kingsway theatre proved to be
three-fourths OF a delight and joy and
will probably be one of the real sue
cesses of the season If the author can
only be persuaded to drop off his fourth
act altogether. Winthrop Ames has the
American rights of the play and no
doubt will take steps to prevent the
repetition in America of what happened
here on Tuesday night-the descent dur
ing the fourth act of a chilling frost on
an audience previously warmed up to the
point of enthusiasm by the brilliant COM
edy and the correspondingly admirably
performance of Henry Ainley and Miss
Wish Wynne.
Rarely has an almost unknown perform
or from the United States scored so great
and so immediate a success as Miss
Wynne, about whose playing of the part
of an English cockney girl In this Ben
nett dramatization of his novel. Buried
Alive all London lie talking. The critics
headed by their most exaeting leader.
wall1ley of the Times seized upon her
performance as the bright particular gem
of the production of the play at the
Queens S theatre under the management
of Granville Barker and his wife, Lillah
Mccarthy. or course Miss Wynne is not
entirely unknown TO Londoners. although
this is her first plunge into the legit-
imate. For some years past she has been
playing on the music halls giving de-
lightful and thoughtful limitations of Eng
ish types, of which her most successful
were cockneys. Indeed, SO true to life
were her performances that few people
knew she hailed from your side of the
Atlantic. Barker saw one of her per-
formances and Immediately approached
her with an offer of part In his pro-
duction.
As is the custom of popular variety
artists in this country, Miss Wynne is
booked ahead on the halls for several
years. So it is unlikely that she wJl
desert her first love entirely. despite her
great success as a legitimate actress.
Quite aside from the matter of contracts
there is the question of money. and a
young actress can hardly be blamed for
giving that detail thought or two. Only
in exceptional cases does the legitimate
stage in this country hold out the none
tary rewards that are to be found on
the music halls and Miss Wynne is max
ing substantial sacrifice every week
she remains at the more serious style of
work.

LEARN TO EAT Then If Stomach Rebels You
 Need Mi-o-na

One of the great characteristics of the American people is-too rapid eating. The inevitable result or bolt ing our food is indigestion with it's various forms of stomach ills
 Nothing makes life so miserable, or jnterferes so widely with the useful ness of the average American as dys- pepsia, the result of indigestion
 The quick lunch counters, many restaurants and even some homes are veritable manufacturers of stomach troubles.
 It seems useless to say feat slowly t1ons devoted to health. have been making the same cry for years, yet we don't heed their warnings.
 Since we persist in defying nature, help must be given the digestive ma : chfnery. other wise serious results will follow.
 Mi-o-na Tablets are a specific for stomach ills. They not only attack the food in the stomach and assist in its digestion but go farther, and tone up the. entire digestive tract, restoring ii to healthy condition so that we can eat what we want at any time without distress.
 Take Mi-O-na at the first sign of upset stomach, such as headache. dizziness, coated tongue, eructating of sour food. or nervousness. All the symptoms of stomach distress will promptly disappear, indicating that the digestive machinery is once more running smoothly
