- - UNREST X :.
BY WILLIAM r. KIRK.

WERE IS no rest save sleep and death
For us whom Destiny is driving;
Until the last and feebest breath
Some part of every mau is striving.
The tireless muscles of the strong,
The mental workings of the clever,
Unite, as We are swept along
In one grand purpose Of endeavor.
The idle day and idle dream
Are for the dotard and the fool:
The salmon flashes up the stream;
The coarse carp fattens in the pool
Striving we live, and, striving. shun
The dull content that would enslave US;
And glory, ere the day is DONE
Is that unrest the Master gave US

and have never been out with any
boys or men. I do go out with
girls, but very seldom, and as am
not bad looking girl, but one
with common sense, don't you think
it would be detrimental to myself
if I should seek the company of
young men? 1 do not like just to
go out and have a good time like
all my other friends do? Some of
my girl friends are a little inclined
to be sarcastic about my not want
ing to go out with every Tom, Dick

I would rather take the advice of
some one more learned. Thanking
YOU, I am,

MAIDEN NEGOTIATIONS.

You can't play the game Of love II
you lay all the cards face up on the

About half the world wonders what
excuse the other half has for living.
II is easier to deny your first desire
for good clothes than to pay for all
the accessories demanded by a hundred

more make good and quite few are

THE fifth deadly mistake Of mat
rimony is: FOR HUSBANDS
AND WIVES NOT TO BE

"HE fifth deadly mistake Of mat
rimony is: FOR HUSBANDS
u AND WIVES NOT TO BE
COMPANIONABLE.
Outside Of the countries in which
women are shut up in harems, there
is no place where husbands and wives
have so little in common as in
America.
And America leads the world in di-
vorces.
In this country it Is hardly too
much to say that the separation Of
husband and wife begins on their
wedding day. He goes one way. She
goes another. He absorbs himself in
business. She absorbs herself in her
housekeeping, OF society, or her clubs.
He entertains his friends, as gen
cral thing, downtown, and she doesn't
even know the names of his mascu-
line Cronies. She gives hen parties
TO women that he does not know by
sight. Each has a life distinct and
separate from the other
You win see the Englishman and
his wife playing golf together, or
riding to hounds together, or tramp
ing together in long walks over the
country You will see the thrifty
French bourgeois and his wife keep
ing the store together during the
week, and then off together on Sunday
on some little excursion. or to make a
little feast You will see the Ger

evenings together happily and placid

One of the main reasons why mar
riage is a failure is because both
husband and wife are bored stiff
The atmosphere of the average home
is as heavy as lead, and the CONVEX

than for Intelligent and cultivated
men and women.

Beyond the city and the park,
Where everything is still and dark"

SHAKESPEARE COMING

John E. Kellerd, who will present
a week of Shakespeare's plays at the
Newark Theatre, beginning March 3,
has proved beyond a doubt the public
interest and enjoyment of the works
OF the master dramatist by his long
run at the Garden Theatre, in New
York city, where he has played since
the first of last November. Newark
is the first city to be visited in his
tour, and the production will be trans
ferred intact. One of the strongest
attributes of Mr.. Kellerd's perform
ance is the earnest and conscientious
efforts which he and his company put
forth at all times; even the small
parts have been the subject of his
care and attention. The cast includes
such well-known actors as John Glen
DINING, Dorothy Dorr, Isabel Merson.
Lila Dell Frost, Roydon Erlynne,
Henry Fearing, Ernest Rowan and
Charles Howson.

SCOTT POLAR EXPEDITION

In obtaining the first and exclusive

gone to an exceptionally big expense,
and the people of Newark will have
an opportunity to see the wonders
of the Antarctic regions portrayed
with a startling and vivid truth to
nature.
In view of the pathetic ending of
the wonderful expedition and of the
heretofore unseen wonders of this
great region, human interest will CEN
ire at the Hippodrome on Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday,, when these
thrilling, inspiring and sensational
pictures will be shown at no increase
in admission.
Following these pictures another
wonderful set is promised for Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday, when A.
Conan Doyle's new Sherlock Holmes
story, entitled THE Berry, Coronet,"
will be shown.
These pictures have been produced
under the personal supervision of the
famous author which, in itself, is
enough to guarantee the thoroughness
of the pictures.
In view of the recent detective ex-
posures in a nearby city more than
usual interest will centre at the Hip
podrome when these marvellous pic
lures will be shown.
