farce in three acts by Edward Peple,
author OF The Prince Chap" The Lit

The story has TO do with two young
men, engaged in the manufacture OF a

subject of which was responsible for the
success OF business. One contended it
was the inside of the pill which made
It worthy while the other partner in
sisted that the violet sugar coating pro-
vided advertising possibilities which made
the sales enormous. Their differences
began to develop serious quarrels and
then the FIRMS legal adviser was called
in to adjust them. He couldn't do any
thing. so he suggested that they play
hand Of poker-show down-in which
the winner should have full control OF
the business for a year and the loser
was to act as the others servant for
the same period. They finally agreed to
this and the hands are dealt; a pair of
skies proved to be high and with the
beginning of the second act the losing
partner is installed in the others house
as a butler. From this premise Mr..
Peple has developed a farce in which the
two partners. of course. played by Ralph
Herr and Hale Hamilton, are the prin-
cipal figures. There is the sweetheart
