Tho Masaue Ariadne, a Pageant OF
errire,s Awakening" which was held
-, night at the Academy of Music, was
.ar,,rably conducted, and the smooth
mass with which the performance went
vas in direct contrast to last years
rAtasoue Of the Primitive Peoples
vh,cb as every one remembers, lasted
mill midnight, so that there was little
time for dancing. Only one set OF
,rsnery was used throughout the pro-
ductlon, and the costumes were most
reInarkably carried out.
The turtle, potato bug, grubs, car
,ots frogs and lizards caused much
merriment. After the Masque, the per.
farmers and audience adjourned to Hor-
ticultural Hall, and, believe me, Paris
and New York have nothing on Phila-
delphia when 1t comes to art students
and their stunts, costumes (what there
we're of them) and dancing. The fun
was fast and furious, and when I left

The various stories one hears of the
enfsnt terrible, especially of the younger
brother variety, are always being aug
mented by just one more, and the just
one more of this paragraph I heard my
self at a house recently visited The
Big sisters Of the family were going to
dance, and, as is the way with girls,
we're taking rather long in making their
Ioilette before joining their brother and
one or two men who had called for
them and who were waiting with other
members Of the family in the drawing
ruom Finally the older brother said to
the small one. who had not yet retired,
GO tell M and j to hurry. We
will be late" Up trudged little brother,
but he did not say that the young men
we're downstairs waiting. Oh, no! That
vas mere detail in his young mind.
Imagine the sensations of all present,
lherefore, when, with loud yells, little
brother informed them, They'll be down
Ioon They're putting on their prelim-
inaries." Whatever that may mean, 1
Know not, but 1 do know the remark

inmates Of that drawing room, and
NJ and j were much embarrassed

nnaly descended.
An amusing incident, which proves
H 1.-The way, that the present generation
q kdlets is a decidedly impressionable
ene, occurred recently during a per-
h'manee of ''Pollyanna." All the boxes
sere filled with small tots, and during
ne pathetic scene, when Pollyanna has

lOungsters were dissolved in tears. Lit
