year ago last New Years night out Of
the whiring snowflakes into the warmth and
light and gayety of the Auditorium foyer
came little figure dressed entirely in white,
swathed from head to foot in loose white
wrap, her glowing face hidden almost to her
bright, dark eyes by the soft white fox furs
She was ushered at once into Mr. Cam
panini's box and the audience murmured ad-
miringly: That is Bessie Ingrahm the new
opera singer here. She sang this afternoon
in Hanse and Gretel.' Isn't she dear?"
The lights were lowered. Mr. Campanlni
tapped his baton on the rack The music
began.
And just then the usher brought some one
else into the box. Miss Ingrahm turned
around in little annoyance at this tardy in
trusion-just trace of frown on her face.
And she saw Mr.. MacVitty for the first time.
The frown disappeared, if one can believe
what she now says. And with eyes yainly
trying TO remain fixed on the stage she
scanned in the semi-darkness every feature

he had little confidence in himself. Miss

Tell Each Other ambitions.

Mr.. MacVitty felt the same way about it.
And so after the first act Mr.. Campanini S
secretary was made a messenger to the court
of love. AS Cupid's ambassador he intro
duced the young people to each other and
the courtship was launched.
They heard not word of the songs which
were sung. They were only conscious of
the melody and harmony of the music and
its echo in their own hearts. For on both
sides it was a case of love at first sight.
Nh MacVitty, usually reticent in the e0
treme, began to tell this stranger about his
hopes and aims. He told her of his plans for
dramatizing some of Harold Wright's novels.
They discussed the possibilities together.
They decided then and there on several
of the strong scenes from The Shepherd Of
the Hills.''
That night Mr.. MacVitty went back to
his room in the hotel and before he went to
sleep he worked out the plan for one whole
act and early the next day made that an
excuse for calling up Miss Ingrahm and
asking to see her and talk it over with her.
Miss Ingrahm for her part already had
confded her ambitions about the operatic
stage. Although this was her first season
with the Chicago Opera company she wanted
to be somewhere the leading contralto.
She longed to play large important roles.
Love proved the incentive and the en-
courager.
Mr. MacVitty with Mr.. Gaskell' began a
modest production of The Shepherd of the

best beware of all colored lights, unless they
are of such soft, shaded tones that the eff
feet is one of peace and harmony. Softly
shaded lights bring peace, beauty, and har-
mony. Glaring lights, on the other hand,
bring only discord and unhappiness
If this new theory Of lights be carried into
mestic troubles. The home that was full of
discord and unhappiness may have been made
that way by brilliant lights in gaudily col
ored shades. If the housewife who longs
for peace will replace these lights with soft
ly shaded lights of tan, amber, dull blue,i or
old rose she may be able to transform the
home into one of peace, tranquility, and
happiness. 1t is theory worth trying.

con-" Whether some couples testify to mar
ried bliss just in order to receive the bacon
is not known, but even at that the entries,
in view of the population, are rather small.
The jury to "try +" the married couples
is composed of spinsters and bachelors. 1t
is thought they make the best judges of mat
rimonial happiness, for they can have an
unbiased, outside viewpoint.
In spite of the free bacon, few couples
could testify to perfect married bliss and
much fault was found with the testimony Of

with apparatus which can direct bombs
weighing half ton apiece. Each dirigible
carries heavy quck-fring guns. This means
that one dirigble, unless destroyed, could
work havoc to town or army by flying
above it and throwing down bombs.
The hangers are nearly as wonderful as
the machines themselves. Hangers capable
of holding the largest dreadnoughts have
been constructed. These have been built
or turntables, so, no matter how the air or
condition of the wind, the airship may be
taken out and docked with little danger.

Many Freak Games of Sport;
Golf Played with a Football.

~ HERE never was time when
freak" games of sport were not in
dulged in by people who became
bit bored at the usual smooth run
ming of the regular game, played as it
should be. Many games of freak golf -
have been played
One of the strangest was game of near
golf played last season near London. 1t
took place between football player and a
golfer. The arrangement was that the foot
ball player should kick golf ball around
the course and that the golf player should
take a football, using any of his clubs. The
football player, who had score of LAP
for the eighteen holes won by ten up and
eight and he also won every hole in the bye.

Another English game was nearly as odd.

but this was used by Sandwich golfer in
a match at the St George course The
user of the champagne bottle club is said
to have beaten his opponent, who was using
regular clubs.
The Allegheny club of Pittsburgh had
members short time ago who made an un-
usual wager. leading member won It
by starting out at 8 o'clock in the morning
and in 156 strokes drove golf ball through
four and a half miles of city streets.
One of the oldest golf matches on record
took place in 1S4S in Edinburgh. This match
was played from Bruntfeld links to the top
of Arthur's Seat, which is over 800 feet
high
In 1898 two golfers Of the Burgess Golf
ing society, Edinburgh, accepted wager
to drive ball from High street over
weather cock ON the spire of St. Giles
cathedral Each golfer was allowed six
shots, and each succeeded in driving the ball
we'll over the spire, height of 100 feet.
This performance has been repeated several
times since
Freak matches have taken place between
a golfer and an archer in England also,
where freak games are often INDUCED in.
The archer used his bow and arrow and he

which sinks into pit. When in the pit its
heavily armored roof is flush with the
ground.
In addition, iron towers as anchorages
for the drigibles have been erected. These
anchoring towers have been built with re-
volving tops In this way, no matter how
tie wind is, the ships may ride in safety.
These towers are constructed close to hy-
drogen stations. One such tower has been
built on the Austrian frontier, two have
been built on the Russian frontier, three on
the French. and eight on the North sea
coast.

That is the latest beauty" theory.
1t is just one little theory among all
the new light theories recently advanced by
Prof. ]. *. Cravath, recognized authority
On the illumination of rooms, in an address
given at the illuminating engineers conven-
ton held at the Congress hotel recently.
Glare in lighting is relic of the past"
said Prof. Cravath. at is as grating to the
artistic senses the rasping of a file. Avoid
all glaring lights. When unscreened lights
are placed in a room otherwise artistic the
effect is the same as horrible discord in an
otherwise beautiful piece of music. Besides
this, bright lights draw faces into premature
wrinkles. Even lovely faces look old and
haggard under bright lights. Women who
wish to retain their youth and charm should
avoid all bright lights. Glare and bright
lights make even beautiful women look like
rights
Prof Cravath says bright lights bring eye
strain. Any kind of a bright light may
cause the nerves of the eyes to become weak
ened beyond hope and even the glare of
lights for little while may cause unrepar-
able damage.
According to Prof. Cravath, colored lights
are quite as bad as glarng lights, unless they
are most carefully arranged. Lights of red
and green will cast those shades over the
countenance and bring on unaccountabe

Miss Ingrahm rea asoned that If Mr. Mac

case it would be only courtesy to speak, or
