HOW TO HANG THINGS.

There is not much excuse for wrinkles
nowadays, IL We take advantage Of all the
devices on which to hang our clothes.
The folding hangers, packed in little
leather case, solve the problem Of hang
ers for the traveller These are made in
various styles, but all of them are good.
If the closet-room Is small, make the
most of it by having a bar placed on
which the hangers can be hung. OF
course, the sort of hangers used must
have hooks big enough to get over the
bar. The bar can be bought-sometimes
it is made of nickel. A broom handle is
quite satisfactory. The broom, of course,
must be sawed OF and the handle secured
firmly at each end to the closet walls.
lengthwise of the closet A bar three
feet long will accommodate at least q
dozen frocks and coats on hangers.
An emergency peg for the camper can
be made from a clothespin. Saw of two
prongs on the pin. leaving just the knob
by head-two or three inches long.
Through the middle of the end of the
knob drive a long, strong wire pin. Fast
en- this securely in a board on the wall
and you have a peg that will not tear the
things hung on it.

pANsEusE An THE GARRIcK

Mile Dominia 1iarini, leading dan
seuse with La Ballet Classique. one of
the big features of the bill which opened
at the Garrick Theatre yesterday after
noon and last night. was pupil of
Marquette, the famous Italian dancing
master. She is child OF dancers. and
appeared for the first time on the stage
when but five years old. Miss Mirini
formerl. was affiliated with the noted
Russian dancers, Psylowa and Aiordkin.
Mile Bronski also a member of La
Ballet Classique presents "1he Arrow
Dance" as given by Mordkin. She is
large woman, and in impersonating a.
man in the act, she lifts Miss Marini
with as much ease as ii the danseuse
were a babe. The principals are assisted
by chorus of clever dancers, all of
whom are attractive and graceful.
The bill is exceptionally good all the
way through. and while there are a
number of startling features about some
of the acts it is marked for its even
ness and general excellence. Raymond
& Layton, a comedy team, have a spicn-
did pantomime noveby. Sherman, Van
& Hyman. a cabaret team. gave a good
account of themselves. They have ex-
cellent voices, ard their program is up
TO the minute. Grace and Arthur Terry,
in their Western tango and roping acts,
were the recipients Of lots of applause,
showing the appreciation of the audi
ence. They appear TO be familiar with
everything that is new in the dancing
Amoros-Werner Company
was seen to good advantage in clever
Partisan novelty, which included skillful
Juggling, dancing. etc. kolb & Ilarland,
in their playlct entitled Evolution,
proved decidedly interesting, showing
the development from 1860 TO 1920.
One of the star comedy numbers on
the bill was the playlet entitled "1he
isrrigans." which was given by Nladge
Ford and a clever company of come
dians. The scene of action is supposed
10 be on the East Side, in New Norl,
city, and the location and incidents
were productive of lots of fun. Dick
