AT THE EMPIRE.

Just returned from a tour of the
English music halls, Pierce and Roslyn
are appearing at the Empire as one
Of the best acts on the excellent bill
on view at the theatre the last half I
the week. Aside from being finished
entertainers, they are willing and seem
TO enjoy what they are doing fully as
much as their AUDIENCE combina-
ton so often lacking in vaudeville.
They have effective singing voices and
they play several musical instruments.
Barnes and Barron are a pair of the
funniest Hebrews in vaudeville. That
is saying a whole lot, but you will back
up the assertion after you have lis
tened TO them a few minutes. They
are extreme Opposites in stature. one
short and fat. other tall and thin.
They call their Offering After the Re
ceptiOn." You can in a way imagine
the rest. You have endured so many
bicycle turns that likely the thought
that one of them is at the Empire will
cause you to hesitate TO see the bill.
Well, you are wrong in this instance
Snyder & Co-three young
men-haye something different One
Of the number is a comedian who will
force a laugh out Of you if there is
one in your system. THE Awakening

Being at once famous operate So

rehearsal. and a champion tennis
player. long distance walker and swim
mer, would seem like strenuositv with
capital s. All in a day II IS though
this work which sounds like a plav
and play which resembles labor. Al
least II is for Miss Ethel NJ Peters.
VINO Will make her appearance in
Faust next Wednesday at the Hi
nois as stellar member of the New
York Grand Opera company. Like
Nordica. she was a church soloist,
when operate managers discovered
her wonderful voice. Miss Peters be-
ieves exercise to be one of the essen
uals Of happiness. To the writer she
gave the following reasons for this
conviction: IF you haven't health
you needn't expect to have beauty.
And. I can't figure out any way to
have health without taking exercise
One OF the most successful ways to
make the years stand still is to keep
the body elastic. the mind active, and
the spirit cheerful. And how can the
body be elastic unless it has exercise?
Dancing is doing a lot to keep old age
away from women who have begun 20
see its face over their shoulder. and
feel the tweak of its approach in their
stiffcned knees. Any woman can get
some exercise, no matter what her
life. She can bend and twist her body
and take deep breaths. She can walk
at least some distance each day. even
If she has to sit in a close factory
room, in a shop or bent over her sew.
ing. Skipping rope is a small space
exercise often use between hard re
hearsals. that will keep the age germs
ont of your system. And when you are
exercising make your mind help your
body Think how beautiful the world !
is. and how much good there is about |
you. and how you are enjoying the
chance to be well and free and happy. |
And above all, sing! If God has not |
given you the voice, sing in the spirit
and rejoice
