Bunker Bean " an
Amusing Comedy
Well Presented

When the final curtain was rung
down on His Majesty Bunker Bean"
at the Oliver theater Thursday night
il brought TO an end one of the
brightest and most entertaining per-
formances of the year. 1t was a play
that appealed to everybody in the
audience and in addition to this Tay-
lor Holmes. His Majesty" delivered
an amusing curtain talk
The play, which is by Lee Wilson
DOdd from the story of Harry Leon
Wilson, published in the Saturday
Evening Post. tells the adventures
of one Bunker Bean, who was from
his birth a modest. retiring chap. He
was given to quiet raiment and al
ways sought the background.
One day he visited a clairvoyant
and she informed him that he was
the reincarnation of Napoleon. Sud
denly the modest retiring youth
blossomed forth. He sought the loud
est Of ralment, the limelight, and
started on his successful journey.
Here the "Flapper" was intro
duced. Said "Flapper" was the 1915
model, and had nothing to do with
the little old last years style" She
knew her mind and insisted on Sc
lecting the father Of her children.
She and Bunker fell in love and
their courtship was ably assisted by
The Demon" who happened TO be
the "Flapper's'' grandmother.
The cast which presented the play
There was plenty of comedy plenty
of amusing situations and all were

BY May De Witt TaImage
THE VANITY FAIR" SEASON.

THE VANITY FAIR SEASON.
This is the season when woman
begins TO think about shedding her
winter coat, and look for summer
plumage. In hocks Of hundreds they
go from one place TO the other at
tracted by notices Of New Spring
Styles" and The Latest Models
from Paris" What is the spirit that
Will make a woman who has plenty
Of money and the entree into any
dressmaking establishment. stand for
hours. just TO see few models pass
by dressed in French gowns?
An invitation TO see Summer
models admission by card only, tea
and music" recently attracted a
crowd Of this type Of women in New
York city. Automobiles filled with
fashionably dressed women deposit
ed their fair occupants in front Of a
large brown stone house, the steps Of
which were packed solid 10 the side
walk with women who were trying
10 gain admission. Many tried to
push their way in, but the door was
only opened a crack now and then
as somebody came out. Then some
energetic perspiring woman was
privileged 10 slip in.
What is the delusion that takes
possession of American women, and
makes fat, lean. coarse, refined
women, all think that they can wear
any creation of Paquiu,. Collot or
Worth. A French woman wears her
clothes as if they were a part of her.
A well dressed French woman is like
picture, a work of art, and she
never shocks you by any incOngru-
ity. How an American woman
makes you feel that a little Jenny
Wren has stolen the brilliant plum
age Of bird Of paradise, and that
it neither fits nor belongs TO her.
We have been invited to all sorts
of exhibitions of clothes. The tango
teas and skating Kinks are deserted
in this wild rush TO see the latest
styles. At one of the department
stores more than a thousand women
stood huddled together craning their
necks TO get a view of the platform,
where. with a setting of the Bots in
Paris. the manikins were strolling
around in the latest styles Of street
suits TO the music of Butterfly" with
violin and organ accompaniment.
Then for the evening gowns and
wraps the setting was changed to a
| Greek scene with Greek columns and
water. Crowds were turned away,
there was hardly room TO stand
What matters it even If you could
never wear gown cut down to the
waist line in the back. with an al
most transparents waist, and p few
beads for sleeves. AS l heard one

The Sneak Up and Died

There was a woman about
midway of the car who was
dressed in widows weeds and
her mourning looked so fresh
that any one could argue that
she had but lately laid her hus-
band away to rest.
By and by a passenger, whose
white choker and sleek cut prov
ed his profession, felt it his duty
to 20 over to her, a Bible in his
hand, and as he sat down beside
her, he said:
Madam. l see YOU have met
with a loss?"
Have II" she replied.
"Your husband has been laid
away"
"Yes. trust that he died hap
py and in faith?"

To the candidates who were

we desire to extend our good
wishes. If you ran a clean race

happier IN a few months than if
you had been elected and thrust
into a position of great response
bility where a wrong step or
careless act might have brought
sorrow. Remember that all
could not be elected.
The winners have the offices
for which they labored, and
therefore no not need congratu-
lations.

A TIGHT RACE

The race for sheriff of Ches-
terfield county has been the
most interesting of any race for
a local office in many years.
So far as we are informed it has
been conducted upon a high
plane. The two candidates
have been on splendid terms and
the speeches during the cam
paign were humorous and friend
ly. The two men have been
good friends for years. and they
are still friends. The winner
has the office, and the good will
of the defeated man.
This does not imply that the
candidates for other offices are
not gentlemen, or that they did
not conduct the campaign upon
a high plane. The fact that
there was SO much interest man
ifested in the sheriff's race
brought forth the above remarks.

INVESTIGATE THE GOVERNMENT

INVESTIGATE THE GOVERNMENT
Under the above headline the
Saturday Evening Post has the
following to say of the plan for
investigating the United States
government:
announcement of the Insti-
tute for Government Research
constitutes the most cheering
news of a political nature we
have heard lately. The Insti-
tute, we hear, will be financed
largely "by Rockefeller inter
ests," which doubtless means
that it will have ample funds for
ITS purpose. 1t will be conduct
ed and assisted by men whose
regulations give high promise of
disinterested, intelligent service.
Its purpose is thorough, con-
tlnuous, helpful investigation of
the Federal Government.
I'VE have several times ex-
pressed the opinion that Mr..
Rockefeller. who devotes many
millions 10 investigating various
things, could not possibly do
better with his money than en-
dow an institution to examine
the public concern at Washing
ton. There have been a mum.
Der OF merely incidental lnvesti-
cations that have created a pre-
sumption of enormous waste
and inefficiency. We have had
each political party charging the
other party with scandalous
misuse of public funds.
I'VE cannot reasonably expect
to know the truth about the Fed
eral Government until some per-
manent body, independent, dis
interested, entirely detached
from politics, and ably conduct
ed. undertakes survey OF it. If
this Institute lives up to its op-
portunities it will certainly be
one of the most useful manifes-
taflons of philanthropy in our
time.
Apparently Washington rath-
er resents it. That was to be ex-
pected. But Washington S, ob
vlously needs it that its resent
ment will count for nothing"

FILMY HATS OF
HAIR BRAID

One of those filmy hats of lace hair
braid, which may go to any length
or width--it likes, is shown here. 1t
is a model for midsummer and its
Wilderness of brim would make 1t too
heavy If the braid were more than
mere threads OF lustrous silk fiber
woven into the most open of lace pat
terms. 1t is faced with malines. and
there are many similar models with
facings of thin crepe or chiffon. They
are all so light that they may provide
a wide expanse of brim, supporting
the flowers of midsummer. without
becoming as heavy as hats of more
compact braids.
Nearly all the hats made of hair
braid are either white or black. The
same braid is dyed into tints and col
ors, but II is most beautiful in white.
Often a white hat is faced with pale
tint, and this brim treatment is liked
particularly well for hats to be
trimmed with full wreath OF ostrich
in light tint

CHEAPEST GAINS ON PASTURE
Feed Cost for Brood Cow With Litter
Cut in TWO by Turning Them on
Alfalfa or Clover.

Pigs make the cheapest gains on
pasture. Trials at the North Dakota
experiment station indicate that brood
sows running on good pasture and
nursing filters will do as well when
receiving one to one and half pounds
Of grain per 100 pounds live weight of
SOW as sows in dry lot receiving two
and half pounds grain per day per
each 100 pounds live weight. The pas,
ture just about cuts the feed cost In
two. The pasture alone does not fur
nish enough feed for either the brood
SOW with litter or for the weaned pigs
They should be fed some grain, so as
to make rapid growth. In this way
the spring pig can be ready for market
before real cold weather sets in
Alfalfa, clover, bromus and winter
rye make the earliest pastures. When
these have not been provided. early
spring seeding of such grains as oats
and barley or rape are the next best
thing.
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1916-05-19

Frames made of fine silk-covered
wire are used for wide-brimmed hats,
but for smaller hats few shapes have
been made of the narrower braids
without any wire support They are
pliable, but one edge of the braid is
corded and is wiry enough to be used
instead of wire when the model is
narrow brimmed These are made in
white and pale tints.
In black, the best effects are made
by combining the lace braid with black
malines. Black paradise feathers or
ornaments of malines are chosen for
such models. and they are most beau
tiful in all black. The hair braid is
highly lustrous and this luster seems
more conspicuous in black than in
white or colors.
Lace hair braid is made up into
beautiful headwear for all ages Of
wearers. from the little girl to grand
mamma. 1t is iine-grained material.
and everything fine and dainty in APP
parel looks well with It. It is associ-
ated in our minds with the most en-
ticingly lovely clothes that women
wear in the gracious days OF summer.

TAXING CARE OF TEETH
Horses MoIars Should Be Ex-
anlined for Defects.
elongated and liberated Grinders
\ often Prevent Animai From Prop
erIy Masticating It's Food
Weakness Follows.

II your horse shows difficulty in eat
ing, or loses flesh without apparent
cause, it is time to examine the teeth
Very often elongated teeth prevent a
horse from properly masticating its
food, thereby rendering it impossible
to obtain much benefit from it.
liberated teeth also are a source
of great trouble and prevent horse
from eating we'll Sometimes broken
teeth cut the sides of the horses
mouth and form painful sores, which,
of course, interfere with mastication.
1t is a good plan to examine the
teeth of all horses two or three times
year, and in the case of broken or
elongated teeth treat them with a
file. If the teeth of valuable animal
are badly affected it should be treated
by veterinary surgeon.
A man living in an eastern state tells
of six-year-old Virginia mule which
almost starved to death because of
bad teeth. 1t was sold for a nominal
price and the new owner, after hav-
ing the animals teeth treated, found
that he had mule that was capable
of doing almost as much work as any
other on the place. The animal picked
up flesh amazingly Immediately after
