 Some years ago l knew of busi- ness partnership which dissolved for the same reason. The two partners were both brilliant men, but they sim ply could not seem to see the value of each others ideas. -.@.
 When one of them advanced an idea. the other immediately began to pick flaws in it, and vice versa. Fiji nally, as l said before, they dissolved partnership and went in for them selves. Whcreupon both proved that their ideas had been good by being successful.
 Human vanity takes many forms. This naive approval of ones own do- ings and schemes and ideas and this readiness to disparage those Of other people is one of the less recognized vanities. But it is vanity, none tho less, and to be avoided by those wl7 want to overcome the littleness and meannesses of their natures.

Household Notes

When boiled and unboled eggs get mixed, spin them; the boiled ones will spin around quite fast, while the uncooked ones will hardly spin around once.
 If boiled frosting has been cooked too long and is rough and crumbly. beat a lump of butter into it. The frosting will become smooth and creamy.
 Young rhubarb is much better cut in cubes and put with a little water In a baking dish in the oven. Of course, sugar must be added and the cubes cooked until clear.
 When transplanting seedlings they should be carefully lifted with as much soil as possible adhering to the roots.
 The housekeeper who wishes to keep the butter bills down should con- sider using good oleomargarine for cooking.
 It is best to clean windows on a cloudy day, as the sun dries the water too quickly and the windows will be streaked.
 A slender. hand wrought iron fork about three feet long is delightful for the woman who counts much on after noon tea.
 Dry lettuce in a clean old nap kin, if possible, gathering the napkin up in the hand and shaking it round and round.
 Once in a while the clothes line should be washed. To do this wrap it around the Washboard and scrub it with sOapsuds.
 The head of ones bed should not fc flat against the wall. but out for a little distance. to allow free circula- tiUn around the head of the bed.

OPPENHEIM NOVEL ON SCREEN AT KEENEYS

Lasly's picturization of F. Phillips Oppenhelm's great novel, MT. GreX Of Monte Carlo is to be the big pho toplay attraction at keeney's tonight and tomorrow. The piece is probably the celebrated authors best achieve ment and in its screen form it is ex- ceptionally interesting. Selected to head the cast which interpreted the novel before the camera was Theo- dore Roberts, an actor whose rise towards the front rank of film stars was exceedingly rapid, and who Is now recognized as one of the leaders.
 Another feature for tonight will be the Knickerbocker film, "The Witch of the Mountains" a three part dra- ma in which Margaret Nichols and Gordon Sackvile have important roles. The Essanay three-part fea- ture, q Will Repay Marguerite Clark playing the lead, will also be on the program.
 The vaudeville shows is of high merit. The headliner is furnished by Mile Dure. the classic little Paris ian who has been creating a near sensation all week by her wonderful barefoot shadow dance and her amusing hurlesque limitations of noted Broadway stars.

CHILDHOOD THEME IN
 THE PRINCE CHAP

Childhood is the thought per meating the entire first act of ''The Prince Chap" the play that comes to the Lyceum next week. It is the wonderful atmosphere of babNland. An American boy is an artist in Lon don. A former model comes to his studio in a dying condition and bCGS him to take care of her baby girl. As the mother is dying the artist dily assents. Then the child of five years is brought to him. He tells her a fairy story and attempts to put her to bed. Before going to her rest the child demands that her prayers be said, and with the aid of the artist she repeats the old-time lisp: ''NoW l lay me down to sleep. Then she says: God bless mamma. and papa, and the Prince Chap, and Princess Alice, his girl, and make mo good girl, Amen.' She has learned the new word, the American word, "bully." and she says to the artist: "Isnt that bully prayer?" He says: Yes, I think that's the bull liest prayer I ever heard" It is a simple little touch of humanity, but # gets over the footlights It teaches a lesson, that a little child is the pret-
 
 nature. To Play "The Prince Chap'' three actresses are required in the part of Cladua, the heroine. In the first act she is but five years old. In the second act she is eight years of age, and in the third and last act she Has reached young womanhood's estate, eighteen years. A youthful actress has been brought from New York to play the part in the first act. Another young girl has been secured to play the part in act two, and Miss Julie Herne, the popular leading lady of the Alfred Cross Players, will essay the part in the third act.
 While elaborate preparations are being made for the presentation of 'The Prince Chap" the Alfred Cross Players are meeting with their great est success of the season in The Two Orphans" Every performance this week has been packed to the doors, almost every seat in the house having been sold out, and the remainder of the week promises to be Just as great from box office viewpoint. The old time play has appealed to the ap petite of the theaterSoing public. In stead of the plays of the present day the people seem to revel In what en- tertained playgoers some years past. :'The Two Orphan" offers all the best in the old time drama. Alfred Cross is great as Pierre the cripple, and gain as the Chevelier. It is a novelty to see the leading man of the Lyceum in two separate and distinct parts in the same play Mrs Cross Is also having the same Interesting experi- ence. She is playing two parts this week being seen first as the Countess a Lniere and then again as Sister Genevieve Miss Julie Herne is play ing Louise, the blind girl, the part made famous by Kate ClaXton some thirty years ago. Miss Dora Booth is playing opposite Miss Herne as her sister, Henrietta. Eugene Weber is having great chances as the rogish brother of Pierre, the cripple, and Mrs Adelaide Hubbard is seen as La Frochard tho heartless hag who makes life so miserable for the poor little blind girl.
