Il am so hungry" said Kate. Let
us go to the house and get our break

Jack turned to ask the fairy if they
might have their breakfast before
starting, but she was no where to be
seen.
. II think We better go at once" said
Jack, thinking Of what he had heard
the night before I'VE can eat berries
and then we will find another fairy
who will give us breakfast They can
do anything, I have heard"
'T am very hungry" said Kate, fol-
lowing her brother to the woods and
along the first path they came to.
IT have been in these woods before. u
said Jack. but I never saw. that path
with flowers growing on both sides be-
fore. think it will be all right to walk
along, as the path the fairy told US TO
take seems to end here"
Kate forgot her hunger when she saw
the pretty flowers. and she ran ahead
and began to pick them, when suddenly
she gave a little cry Of delight and Jack
ran to see what she had found
On a bush Of pink flowers there was
a basket hanging covered with white
napkin and when the children uncov-
cred II they found their breakfast.
This is what the fairy meant when
she said IL we wished to be happy to
follow the first path" said Kate. l am
happy because l have nice breakfast,
hut what will aunt and uncle say when
we go home. We forgot to bring IN the
wood"
Kate forgot her breakfast and began
to cry, but Jack told her they would
not 20 back, because their uncle and
aunt did not want them and intended
to rid themselves of them that day.
But where will we go7" asked Kate.
I'VE will keep on this path said
Jack. IT am sure 1t must lead to some
thing nice; it Is SO beautiful"

give them their breakfast.
"You cannot earn your SALT" she told
them one morning, land IL 1 had my

Poor little Kate cried herself to SLEEP
that night with Jacks arm about her
neck. and while he was too brave to
cry his heart was very sad.
Jack lay awake that night wondering
what would become of them. when sud-
denly he heard the boards creak as
though some one was walking toward
his room.
He closed his eyes and pretended he
was asleep. but he could see just the
least bit. and soon the door was opened
and his aunt and uncle came in with a
candle and came toward the bed.

heard his aunt say again. land IL you

Look at them: they will never be

No, 1 tell you we will be ruined If

The uncle said he would take them
away the next morning. and they
went out and closed the door.
Jack did not sleep much that night,
and as soon as Kate was awake in
the morning they dressed and went
to the springs for water.
Jack had not, told his sister what
he heard the night before, and he

Jack and Kate dropped the pail and
looked about. There was no one in
sight, and Jack said ii must Have

They picked up the pail and were
dipping it into the spring when they

creature who seemed to fly over the

iact that It Is not an actor playing
tne role OF DisraeH. but rather that the
sfeat statesman himself has come hack
irom the beyond; that Disraeii himself
once more walks and talks and dirsct,
tne destinies Of nations.
Ariss' Creation Is
Work Of Genius.
In his makeup. in the careful fnnec-
uons OK his voice-always forcefulL but
never loud, always compelling. b,,t
never oiatant-in the entire deune.nor
OF tne character the audience feels tbs
spirit OF the great actor and Ieave. tns
theater feeling that, even II has mot
Witnessed q great play, IT has seen re-
markably fine acting.
DisraeH." the play, Is above the ay-
erage only inasmuch as IL Is interest
ing ana bright-Disraeli, the character
OF Arliss, Ii creation of genius.
Inc management has surrounded the
star or the Parker play with a cast
admirably fitted to support him and
play up to his remarkably fine actine.
The role Of Mrs. Travers. the Rus
sian spy. is handled by Miss Margaret
Dale, last seen here with William Il.
Crane in Father and the Boys" and
a great favorite In Washington. Like
wise does the role Of Lady Clarissa faif
to the share Of an actress well known
and well liked here-Miss Violet Hem
ing, formerly leading woman for the
Columbia Stock Company. Both of
these actresses read their lines in a
manner calculated to get out of them
all that Is contained therein and their
work only contributes to the general
excellence of the production.
Others whose work stands out during
the evenings performance are Arthur
Eldred as Viscount Deeford; Oscar
Adye as Hugh Meyers, Dudley Digges
as Lumley Foljambe, and Mrs. Arliss
as Lady Beasonsfield. The latter con-
tributes an especially clean cut bit
j can thoroughly recommend Dis
raelf' to all who care for clever plays
well acted and for the Quintessence OF
good acting in the title role-no other
words to all who care in the least for

I selected by the dramatist Is that shortly
after his elevation to the post Of prime

fdence Of the upper classes, Is gifted
| with the prophetic vision which enables
| him to see thas control Of the Suez
Canal Is the only manner In which
Great Britain can hold. India against
Russia. Tie entire plot Of the play is
taken up With a game Of diplomatic
chess played between "Dixzy" on the
one hand and the secret agents Of the
st. Petersburg government on .he
other. The premier wins BY q clever
Bank Of England that that institution
must stand behind him and make good

Governor refuses and Disraeli threatens
that he will crush the bank. destroy It
through the power delegated to him as

Every Line Takes
Added Significance.
1 consider this to be one OF the most
effective curtains have Witnessed In a
long time, and, handled with the sim
plicity and tact Of Mr.. Ariiss. every line
takes on an added significance
.'Disraeli'' is essentially one-man
play. The main role dominates the en-
tire four acts just as the prime minister
himself dominated the court in which
he lived and the people among whom
he moved. In the hands of Mr.. Ariiss
the character of the Jewish premier Is
q sheer delight Even when one re-
members the many other characterize
tons which this actor has given to the
stage-his Marquis Of Steyne in VAN
ity Fair" his Minister of War in The
Darling of the Gods" his Devil in
Molnar's play Of that name-one cannot
recall a role which has given him the
opportunities for studied and careful
deiineation that Disraeli has.
His makeup Is. as always, wonder
fully accurate. In the last act, when
Of his wife, stalks slowly upon the
gathering of courtiers in the reception
hall, in Downing street, one feels al
most as IL some old print Of the pre-

''H a nlsEst BY his his .oe~shali 1; I
buy my furs at a furrier's or

store?" That is the question before the
majority of the public today, despite
the rumors to the contrary concerning
Huerta. The writer, having come to see
the wisdom OF arbitration. through much
experience in such matters, will make
no radical statement, but will merely
endeavor to point a knowing finger at
the wares of one and all. The depart
ment store in Seventh street between d
and L is selling genuine black fox mufrs
of beautiful lustrouS quality, lined
with black satin and of impeccable
shape, for $17.50. Squirrel coney sets,

Portrayal Of Character Of Great
English Statesman Is Best

ISTORICAE plays. IL one may be
~ permitted to indulge in gen.
eralities, usually fall short Of
the mark, either because the
personages are so well known that
histrionic impersonators are not their
physical doubles or because the Incl
dents related do not contain that ele-
nient of sustained interest essential to a
successful play.
"Disraeh." by Louis N. Parker, now

these shortcomings.
In the first place the character OF the

and even II 1t were. Lord Beacons-
fields personality was sufficiently COM
plex and elusive to permit Of its pre-
sentation in number Of acceptable
ways on the modern stage. Again, the
dramatist has selected series OF In

the premier's career and has joined
them together In such manner as to
make a most delightful and coherent
whole. thereby making Of "Disraeli'' not

Author of "Disraei"
Takes New Viewpoint.
The author of "Disraei,' well known
to theatersoers as the author Of '.Po-
mander Walk and the man who gave
"Chanticleer" and "LAiglon'' to the
English-speaking peoples. has approach
ed his subject from a viewpoint new to
the usual historical dramatist. Instead
OF showing his principal character in
the process of formation. he pictures
him at the height of his power; instead
OF depicting a love episode in the life
of the great Jewish prime minister, he
shows how Disraeli aids the love affair
between two young people and how he
finds in the completion OF his great
scheme for enpire-buildirg an even
greater Joy in the thought that he has
been Of service in bringing Lady
Clarissa and Viscount Deeford
together.
