t, the way she got hold of the song which has so much to do with the size of the hit.
 Last February, when NJ Froh- man started out on a preliminary tour with that ill-starred musical comedy, The Laughing Husband" he found at the first performance in ! Rochester that the piece was wofuly in need of a breezy number for the soubrette of his company There were scores of songs fo.' everyone else to sing all over the place, but rothing at all for her. So Mr. Froh .. , man at once sent a long distance wire to MT Jerome Kern, to get hold of his lyric partner, MT Smith, and do their very best or worst in the shape of popula. song immediately. The result was that on the opening right at the Knckerbocker Miss Venicia Fitzhugh, and a young man. in company sang a duet which was SC well rendered and so immediately successful that after the play was over it was the one number that stuck in the playgoer's memory. Tine song had capital idea ana T l delightful setting. It was called
 You're Here and I'm Here" ard it's rttf.in T'.'ch is now being whi.,tled all over ,re English w1l:; iirg wuril. -.:l.G like this:
 You're here and I'm here, so what
 do we care,
 The time and place do not count; it's the one who is there
 Now, all l ask is room for two; and
 to be there with only you. It would be heaven,-
 When two hearts are true hearts, like yours and mine,
 The skies are fair everywhere and
 the sun seems to shine,
 And now the wide world seems a lit- tie cosy corner
 For you and me
 And now comes the tragedy of the case, which, to do it justice. should be written or read to MT. Jerome kern's softest and most shivery mu- SIC. The Laughing Husband" fail ing in it's purpose of making any of its audiences kill themselves with laughter, died the death of all things iachrymose in the world of musical comedy. The play was sent to the store house and Mir Frohman found himself with a popular song on his hands. This spring both he and Miss Janis and her mother arrived in London within few days of each other Having known her since she played children's roles in one of his companies, he was naturally anxious that her London debut should prove a great success. He attended one of l her rehearsals and he at once real- iZed that she was in the same pre- dicament that he had been in in "A | Laughing Husband''- needed one , song which must be, in the language of the vaudevillians, "a knock out" | He instantly thought of I'm Here | and You're Here," only to discover to | his dismay that he had forgotten to t. purchase the English rights to it, 1 and that Messrs Kern and Smith
 had sold the foreign rights to a song
 and dance team who were to intro 1 duce it to the London public a week | later. MT. Frohman lost no time. He personally sought out the song and
 dance team, persuaded them without
 much difficulty that the song was
 utterly unsuited to them and offered to pay them in cash just three times 1.-the amount they had paid for the
 English rights. Within four hours of l,her first performance Mr Frohman oh fo vSIo English rights into Miss Janis's
 hands. She and her partner know i ing it backward already, were able to render it that evening with a suc- cess which startled even Miss Janis S
 mother, and, to those of us who have had the great pleasure of her moth
 CTS acquaintance that means some thing.
 And then MT. Davies goes on to
 tell why Miss Mary Fuller will in all
 probability never figure in a movie
 drama with an aerOplane for it's cen tral figure. Ct will be remembered
 that Miss Fuller's most successful
 appearance in the movies was in MT
 Davies Dolly of the Dailies" series There is one motion picture star who. will never make an ascension in
 an aeroplane. And that young wo- man is Miss Mary Fuller, of the Edi
 son Company. Up to a few short
 weeks ago it was the height of Miss
 Fuller's ambition to make an ascen-
 sion with Niles, the unkillable avia- tor, whose flip-flaps, somersaults and other mid-ai stunts at Hemp stead have made him the marvel of
