Ballet Russo is going into vaudeville

Ballet Russo is going into vaudeville
and. in fact, so is part of the.
Theodore Koslof and Nlhsta Mas
Iowa are the ringleaders OF the troupe
and n number Of dancers from the
Diaghileff organization will be in the
company. Their debut will be made at
the Palace Theatre this week, with the
uplift of the two-a-day the de-
mocratization of the ballet-as the end
desired. Mr. Koslof puts it this way:
"Maslova and myself were educated
in the Imperial Russian Ballet. 1t IS
the finest art in the world, being
blend of the aesthetics of all the Euro
rean nations music from Germany,
ballet from France. drama from Scan
dinavia. fire and vivacity from Spain
and Italy. love of beauty from Vienna,
all blended with Slav melancholy, Slav
melody and the great. sad, brooding
spirit of the steppes, filled with infinite
longing for liberty. The spirit OF the
Russian dance is that of infinite eX-
pansion of spirit of the ambition to De
happv and free and unrestrained.
an Russia the Imperial Ballet is the
entertainment of the whole nation.
Here Russian dancing has so far been
the diversion Of aristocrats. Msslova
and myself feel that this one perfect
artistic production Of our nation
should be brought TO the great mass
of American tbea'regoers, and that Is
why we are going into vaudeville. We
have been promised nationwide book
( ing, and are consequently investing a
/ great deal of money in small, yet
vivid, beautiful and impressive Rus
sian ballet, which will be as impressive
as any of the ballets recently danced
at the Metropolitan Opera House.

woman, the two principal characters in
the piece, were at that time residents
Of Chicago ! recall play which was
produced in London some years ago,
which was referred to by one highly
unimaginative reviewer as being high
~ improbable yet it was oddly the
case that the story of the play was an
exact duplicate Of incidents which had
occurred to the leading man and wom-
an in the drama. If dramatists are to
be tied down 70 water Cruel plots we
will soon cease TO have theatregoers.

O'Connell remarking- to Mr.. lnce that
she never has met Billie Burke, and
oh. how she would like to, and as op-
posed 10 that there is Mr. lnce's con-
eoling response that Miss BURKE is on
her way out there at that very minute
Gin fact, that is probably her step on
the stair, and that Miss o'Connell will
certainly meet her. SO!
Now, then. One day Miss Burke was
posing in a scene in Scotch village,
in which she was supposed TO so rip
ping through a pounding rain in an
automobile. and to meet with a break
down. Also, she was further supposed
10 get out and crawl under the ma
chine and fix it-and she did. But
goldarn il If she didn't go and get all
wet, to say nothing OF catching a cold.
It so happened that there was lot of
sunlight around the place that day,
and the director didn't want to waste
it, But there was Billy. all messed up
and with mud in her hair, and drawing
Just about $4,000 a week-a circum-
stance which made delay inadvisable.
At this point you are entitled to
seven guesses as to what happened.
What's that? Right! Not only
did Peggy O'Connell pinch hit for her
that day, but on a number of days
thereafter Tor so It's said. And the
only person who knew the difference
was Miss O'Cornell, and you'd never
in the world guess how she knew it..
But if you want to give up We'll tell
you.
She knew il by her salary.

FEAR.

Fear is as unnecessary as lying If
children are guarded and protected.
We were never afraid to tell our
mother the truth, and if it had not
been our dear mother had to work to
support US we should never have been
left at any time 10 the unsympathetic
mercies of nurse.
| heard one of the women at the
studio the other day trying to make
her little boy cry in a scene. She said,
"1f you don't do this as mamma wants
you to do that big dog will come and
carry you away in his mouth"
The child looked over at Bruno,
our studio Newfoundland pup, and
screamed with terror That afternoon
Bruno, who loves children, numbered
after the boy to lick his little hands.
When the child saw Bruno back Of
him, he threw himself flat on his face,
and before he could be calmed the
poor little tad went into convulsion
of Mysteries. There is little doubt that
this child will grow up having an in
stinctive fear of dogs, just as other
children run away from cats because
their nurses told them cats have
witch's eyes.

she studied in the great libraries, and
where she began to write on astronom-
ical subjects. Finally, in 1877, she settled
in London.
Her first book was "a Popular History
of Astronomy During the Nineteenth
Century" a book valuable as a reference
book.
She enlarged her knowledge by a three
months visit to Sir David Gill at the
astronomical observatory at the Cape of
Good Hope, where she put in her time
doing practical work.
Some OF the astronomical articles IN the
Encyclopedia Britannica are from her
pen. She also wrote a book called "Sys-
tenn of the Stars" and many other works
of note. She received many honors from
astronomical societies. She was made a
member OF the Royal Astronomical So
ciety, Of which few women save Caroline
Herschel have ever been members.

Mary What a delightful little
farm you must have, and how l would
enjoy visiting youl But it is seldom
| can get away from this busy life of
mine, especially long enough to go
any distance from home. Do you
know that | was born in Canada, too,
and that / am very proud of the Ca
madam boys who have proved them
selves such heroes in the war? Do
let me know what you hear from your
brother, as | can appreciate your
heart-breaking anxiety.
Little Johnnie Blackbird" tells me
that he is taking my advice about
studying Nature and that he brought
home some pollywogs the other aft
ernoon. At the end of the second
page, he writes that he got mad at
his Brother George and let some of
the pollywogs slide down the back of
Georges neck. That is a revised YER
sion of Nature study which certainly
surprises me, although probably l
was not half as surprised as Brother
George was. Johnnie also added that
he would like to marry me when he
grew up, but ] am afraid if | wait
until that time Johnnie will have
changed his mind At any rate, he
is going to be moving-picture actor
and a cowboy.

Nothing is much more unattractive
than the woolen sweater or jacket that
Is soiled and deprived OF its original
freshness. still a good many women hest
tate to wash woolen articles simply be-
cause they do not know the proper meth
cd. But II is really not a difncult task.
In the first place, the article In ques-
ton should be thoroughly aired and freed
from all possible dust Then a basin OF
lukewarm water should be prepared.
with some pure white soap dissolved in
Il. Then the garment to be washed should
simply be put into the water and left
for ten or fifteen minutes It should
then be carefully examined and any spots
where stain remains should be squeezed
between the fingers, rather than rubbed,
until the spot Is removed. Then the gar
ment should be taken from the water
and squeezed, but not wrung. After this
there should be two more baths In rims
Ing water, care being taken not to wiring
the garments at any time.
So far the task Is comparatively easy,
because Of the fact that pure wooden
goods does not retain dirt very tenacious
ly and little perseverance Will leave
the goods in perfectly clean condition.
