GEORGE ARLISS REVIEW

George Arliss charmed q Topeka
audience again last night in his pre-
sentation at the Grand of Louis N.
Parker's wonderfully interesting play,
'Disraeli.' 1t Is almost superfiuous
as an actor He is one of the clever
est on the English-speaking stage to-
day. Indeed, he has long since earned
for himself q place of prominence in
the actors hall OF fame. And in
''Disrae1i' he has a part that permits
him to dis. ort to the full his especial
talents for mimicry, for the delinea-
ton of unusual characters.
Biographers generally agree that
Benjamin Disraeli, reck0ned as one of
the greatest statesmen that the world
has produced, was also a genius for
eccentricities. The Parker play de-
picts them in all their varieties, from
the ludicrous to the sublime. And
George Arliss takes advantage of ev-
cry one of his myriad OF opportuni-
ties to display his skill.
OF course, it almost goes without
saying that Mr.. Arliss has excellent
support, or so much Of it as is neces-
sary to carry the piece along. in the
company now on tour with him. Nor
has there been a play in Topeka for
some time that was SO adequately
staged in all of its particulars. incfud-
ing the now rather quaint-looking
but nevertheless elegant costumes
that were in vogue in Eng
lish court and aristocratic circles In
the late '70s, the period when Disraeli
was at the zenith of his career, and
when he established British imperial
ism firmly on it's feet through the pur-
chase of the Suez canal, and for which
Russia was secretly c-ntending. It is
around this incident that the play Is
woven. And If the play comedies with
I the facts concerning this master
stroke in British diplomacy, it was
only the cunning, the marvellous cum
ming OF Disraeli, and his force as well.
that snapped the Suez prize from
Russia and made British supremacy
on India q certainty.
Benjamin Disraeli was considerably
conceited over his cleverness and his
pecuIiarities. Had it been given him
to see George Arliss de1ineate them
on the sta he would have been even
more impressed with them and with
good and sufficient reasons.
One Of the largest audiences that
the Grand has held in years was pres
ent last night, and that 1t thoroughly
enjoyed the Ar1iss performance from
fbeginnfng to the end was made plain
ly apparent by the generous and en-
thusiastfc applause which It bestowed.

WHY CROPS RUN OFT.

The question is often raised as to
whether crops run out" or not. To
say that crops do not run out" would
be to deny that any variations are pro-
duced by changed conditions or envi-
ronment. When plants are brought
into new conditions of soil, climate
or methods of farming less favorable,
they will tend to deteriorate or run
out"
Desirable Qualities Suffer First I'm
der UnfaVorabIe Conditions. If corn
is planted too thick (seven or eight
stalks per hilD a large yield of foil
age will be obtained, but the yield of
grain will be small. Under unfavOr-
able conditions the plant tends to re-
vert to it's original condition, and the
particular thing for which the plant
is grown and which gives it value suf-
fers first and most.
Best Methods Necessary. It is only
by the best methods of seed selection
and of cultivation that the farmer can
hope to maintain the valuable qualities
of his crops, otherwise they will dete-
riorate or run out" and it will be nee
essary for him to secure seed from
someone who has paid more attention
to the improvement of his crops.

"SEED CORN WEEK."
The Last Week in September or the
First Week in October Should Be
Set Aside as Seed Corn Week
in the Corn Belt.

We have "Arbor Day." Would it
not also be well to have a seed Corn
Day." A day when everyone should
begin the harvesting and storing of
his seed for the following spring. We
laugh at our grandfathers for planting
their potatoes and sowing their grain
lin the moon," that is, in certain
phases of the moon. The value Of
this practice lay, not in the fact as
supposed by many that the moon ex-
ercised any influence on the crop, but
in the having of a definite time and
plan for the doing of various things
on the farm.
If the harvesting of seed corn, like
the feeding of stock, came every day,
it would be attended to on time, but
it is nothing more nor less than hui
man that the work which comes only
occasionally or once year, as in the
case of the harvesting of seed corn
should be put off or neglected alto
gether. unless there is definite time
and plan for the work.

CAV ZENoLA MAC LAREN.

Gay Zenola MacLaren attends the
production of modern play five times
and then, without ever having read
the original book or dramatizatlon OF,
in fact, any of the lines in any way,
can go upon the Lyceum or Chautau-
qua platform and give an initiative re-
cital of the entire production. imper-
sonating every character. This at once
places Miss MacLaren as an entertain
er in q class entirely by herself.
Miss MacLaren frankly admits that
her power is not the result of years of
study and work. although it has taken
close application and pains to develop
and perfect it. but of natural born
gift for mimicry. She does not claim
to originate the many characters she
assumes, but to give faithful repro
duction of them as portrayed by the
great artists and their supporting COM
panies iii the original productions.
In order TO do this work one gift is
absolutely necessary, without which

Advertising is simply making your
business known. AS such it is per-
fectly consistent with anybody's digni-
ity or modesty.
1t is not necessarily boasting or self
pushing. In fact, Dragging advertis-
ment defeats it's purpose; it repels
and does not attract.
There are several points that it
might be we'll for all advertisers to
keep in mind. These are not expert
items, but are simply common sense.
l. All advertising should clear. 1t
ought to state just what your business
is and where it is, giving your precise
address. Don't assume that every one
knows where the Zones dry goods
store" is, nor how to get there. Tell
them. Yo cannot make things too
plain.
2. Advertising should be reckoned
as a part of your business. 1t is as
necessary as the sign over your door.
IT is not an occasional nor an out
side matter; it is essential. How can
the public do business with you unless
they know about you?
3. 1t should be regular and con-
slant. People trading with the firm
whose name is familiar to them. The
newspaper ought to be your partner
if you are in business permanently.
4. The newspaper, going daily into
the hands of the people, is the best
medium for advertising. It's where
the public naturally turn when they
want to see where to buy, whether
bonds or beans.
5. Advertising should be attractive.
The most attractive thing you can put
in it is something that appeals to the

THE BEULAH BUCK QUARTET.
The BeuIah Buck Quartet is ladies'
quartet which is no experiment. but
which has been upon the Lyceum and

Each member is a capable sOloist,
while Mrs. Buck is also a reader who
never fails to captivate her audience in
her selections. Musical sketches are
also feature of their program.
Mrs. Beulah Buck has a clear and
brilliant soprano voice, which, coupled
with her dramatic talent, enables her
to sing with pleasing expression either
I'm the operate arias or the popular
songs and ballads. In her readings she
does not strive alone for heavy elOcu-
tionary effects, but also gives such bits
of impersOnatiOn as make a pleasing
variety to an evenings program.

ABOUT ADVERTISING

self-interest of the reader. If you can
show woman where she can save 10
cents, or where she can buy stuffs that
last longer and wear better, it is much
more to your advantage than to crack
jokes What you want is to tell folks
that they can get the most for their
money at your place; that is the most
attractive fact you camp ublish.
6. Be brief. Don't try to crowd all
the reading matter possible into the
space you pay for, so as to get your
moneys worth. Use readable type and
don't say too much.
z. Be human. Make your advertise
ment as live and warm as you can
Don't be too cold and precise.
s. Tell the truth. When customers
come to your store, do a little more
for them than you said you would in
your announcement. The prosperity
of the liar is brief
8. 1t is the duty of all honest con-
Germs to advertise. That is the best
way to crowd out the takers. 1t en-
ables newspapers to reject suspicious
and questionable advertisements.
10. Advertising is necessary to all
forms of business which appeal to the
public. Banks, telephone companies,
gas, street railway and other public
utility concerns, besides city, state
and national governments, ought to
keep regularly in touch with the peo-
pie by advertising.

runs through the minds of the Gem
