ut Pays to Advertise" another of
the successful comedies seen this sea-
son at the Metropolitan theater at the
$500 per seat prices, will be next
weeks offering at the Shubert. The
play is one of those up-to-the-minute
farces that has attracted so much at
tention during the theatrical season
just drawing to a close. Instead of
taking the eternal triangle, or some
hackneyed French suggestive theme as
its basic element. 1T Pays to Ad-
vertise" is farce purely and dis
tinctively American, so much so
that if transported to a foreign soil,
it is doubtful if it would be under
stood. The story told is that of
youthful scion of millionaire soap
manufacturer, whose escapades has re-
suited in the father informing him
that he was "a good for nothing"
whose future would be disgrace to
the family name. The son, stung to
the quick by what he deems harsh
judgment, decides to "do something"
His mind naturally runs to soap, that
being the fathers product, and with
the assistance of theatrical press
agent whom he knows, the young man
launches in a wonderful advertising
campaign for "13 Soap-Unlucky for
Dirt The merits of the new prod
uct are emphasized in numerous and
many novel ways, so much so that
terrific demand for the product is
created. Throughout the enterprise,
the young man is aided and abetted
by young woman-his fathers
stenograp her-who lends material as
sistance. At this juncture, the ex-
ploiters of the superstitious "13 Soap
recall the fact that while they have
created the demand for their product,
nothing has been done toward it's
manufacture. Then it is that the
father comes in to stop the enterprise,
and ends in being allowed to come
into the firm as a partner. Averell
Harris will be the press agent, Oscar
johnson the young man of advertising
genius, and Nan Bernard the stenog-
rapher The week following "a Full
House," another comedy success, new
to Minneapolis will be the Offering.

PANTAGES,

Those who saw Singers Midgets at
Pantages short time ago, should not
miss another big attraction, which has
many things in common with that COL
ossal production which crowded the
theater for a week to overfowing. To
be sure, the Junior Mimic World are
not midgets, but they are juveniles,
every one of them, and selected as
were the midgets, by securing the
world for it's young people who were
adopts in some manner of stage craft.
After the thirty or more had been
selected, there followed the lengthy
period of training, just as was the
case with the midgets, and now there
comes big whirlwind revue, peopled
by young folks, who are so enter
tanning that audiences wonder the
youth could be so adept.
In the hour of entertainment offered
by the Mimic World company, sur
prise follows surprise in such rapid
succession, that every audience won
ders, even such blase gathering as
came to see them in New York, where
they made a record run. Celebrating
of staging, sumptuous costuming, no
money spared to surround this big
company of young people with every
thing to make their individual efforts
count for all they are worth. One OF
the most attractive features of the
company, are the many limitations Of
popular celebrities on the stage. Many
of these juveniles are counted the
best mimics among the stage world o.

FREE IRELAND is ASKED
BY CONGRESSMAN MASON

Irish sentiment throughout the coun-
try has already begun to focus on the
Mason resolution. On the night of
May 18th, the day it was introduced,
a great mass-meeting in New York en-
dorsed it. The Irish World, The
Gaelic American, and other papers are
advocating it. This appeal is due to
the clear-cut, straightforward demand
for independence which it embodies
in provisions which are practical and
comprehensive. If enacted, it would
be a perfect piece of legislation for
the purpose it aims at.
Whether this measure to achieve the
dream of seven centuries is passed or
not, depends on the Irish people in
America. 1t is pointed out that the
Foreign Affairs Committee should not
be allowed to smother this bill in the
slumber which overtakes so many.
Only united and vigorous demand
not merely a sentiment, but a DE-
MAND, can secure >its report to the
House, which would almost surely
pass it, if permitted to act on it at all.
This is Ireland's golden opportunity
to obtain Home Rule-now is the &C.
ceptable time.
Every one interested in this great
cause should at once write their ap-
proval to Hon. VIM. E. Mason; then
write their own Congressman to de-
mand that the Foreign Affairs Com
mittee take action on the Mason Reso.
luton; and finally write the same de-
mand to Hon. Henry D. Flood, Chair
man of the Foreign Affairs Committee
of the House. A letter to Hon. Champ
Clark, Speaker of the House, whose
heart is always with the Irish, will also
help.
Surely every exile from Erin, and
every American who honors an honest
Irish father and tender Irish mother,
can take the trouble to write three or
four letters, or at least one or two!
Do this, each one! Get others to write
similar appeals, and let the Capitol at
Washington be deluged with letters for
Home Rule for dear old Erin.
Representative Mason, in a state
ment given to the press, says: Il have
introduced this resolution to give de-
finite legislative form to the nation
wide demand that the first small ma
ton to be liberated by our entrance
into the war shall be Ireland.
1T is understood that President
Wilson is deeply interested to have
Something done for Ireland. take it
for granted that he does not discrim-
mate between Belgium and Servia on
the one hand, and Ireland on the other
1t is not proposed to give the former
nations merely Home Rule, but indie
pendence; the same must be given
Ireland.
"The seven century struggle of Ire
land for freedom has been the most
heroic in history. AS a purely Ameri.
can matter we must free Ireland or
suffer the reproach of hypocrisy.
Since England asks our money, ships
food and men. we can honorably de-
mand any honorable price we choose

SAUCE FOR THE GOOSE"

We hear a deal of talk about sIovenly
wives-women who keep themselves and
their homes carelessly.
In fact untidiness Is sometimes made
the excuse for divorce, and certain men
undoubtedly soothe their consciences for
good deal Of their side-stepping with
just this balm
Not week ago heard two men dis
cusstng certain business friends pref
erence for a merry little dinner in a
downtown cafe with his secretary to a
meal at the family board where a very
faithful wife presides over the cups, and
.eagerness the coming OF the seIdom-seen
father
Can't say that blame the old sport
much.'' declared The First Man.
There certainly isn't much to attract
him at home. Wife rather a frowsy sort
Always absorbed in domesticity. Never
dolls up for him. A fellow doesn't want
that sort Of diversion after a busy day
Gown town.
Il can't see why women don't know
enough to make themselves attractive to
the men they have married" chimed in
The Second Man sympathetically. 'It is
exactly as you say. There's no refresh
ment to a business-weary brain in the
companionship of a dowd."
Now, didn't know the two men whose
conversation overheard, but do
know the man they were excusing for his
negligence Of his family while he enjoyed
the companionship Of an unmarried
woman.
And what is more know his wife.
1 have seen the man in question in his
own home. and I have never observed
that HE was over-tidy there.
He goes unshaven in the presence of
his family; smokes countless cigarettes
in his home and scatters the butts of
them from one end of the house to the
other. He never takes the trouble to
throw a burned match into a proper re-
ceptacle, but drops It on the floor in
whatever place he finds himself He
leaves his clothes in the middle of the
room in which he takes them on and is
guilty Of a thousand and one repulsiye
acts Of untidiness in his own home.
Now suppose The Woman, who spends
a third OF her time picking up after The
Nah, were to leave her babies and 20 out
two or three nights a week with some
man who was immaculate in his appear
ance; entertaining in his conversation
and thoughtful OF her tastes and her
pleasures?
Would anybody gather around sympa-
thetically and say:
Il don't blame the old sport?"
Well, hardly!

pressive phrase-what is sauce for the
goose ought to be sauce for the gander

YOUR WEDDING DAY
BY MARY MARSHALL.
May 1o-Herbert Henry AsQuIth and
MRrR0t Tenant
And the Famous Men and Women
Who Have Shared II.

"Dodo II married." ran the headlines
in the newspapers twenty-tnree years
ago tomorrow when announcement was
made that the Right Hon. Herbert Henry
Asquith had married Miss MarEot Ten
nant, daughter OF Sir Charles Tennant,
OF Glasgow. and original Dodo in Ben
sons novel of the name. Mr. Benson has
denied this. but the rumor has never
died down in consequence of Mr.. Ben
sons denial. Miss Tenant was the foun-
der of society known as THE Souls -
To The Souls belonged Lady Colin Camp
bell and Mr.. Balfour. Their doings and
object have never been revealed But it
is known that they communicated in an
argot as unfamiliar to other ears as the
slang Of thieves or gypsies.
Mr. AsquIth at the time Of his mar
riage was secretary of state for home af-
fairs and forty-three years old. He was
a widower. The marriage took place in
st. Georges Church, Hanover Square, at
noon. before a notable gathering. includ-
ing Gladstone, Lord Rosebery. Earl
Spencer. Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain and
Mr.. Arthur Balfour.
Miss Tennant was a great friend OF Mr..
Gladstone, to whom her father owed his
bsronetcy and appointment as trustee OF
the British Museum. She was a member
OF the famous yachting party which ac-
companied Mr.. Gladstone TO Copenhagen
when he had his interview with the Gar.
Miss Tennant married an elderly man,
comparatively speaking. 1t has been
Characteristic of her career that mature
men found her more charming than
youths, who were frightened by her
quickness OF repartee and rather rough
tongue. At social functions her circle OF
admirers had generally been composed
of men old enough to be her father. and
sometimes as well known as they were
old. Sir Charles Tenant was the head
Of the great chemical firm.
1t is said that soon after her marriage
Mrs. Asquith went to a village merry-gO-
round attired in red satin and rode with
the children; her husband forbade her
ever again to do anything which would
call publicity upon herself, and since
then she has not been the subject of any
escapade. She was the first woman in
England to play golf without hat; she
has beautiful hair, and believes the best
way to keep It so is to 60 uncovered.
