REGRETS DECLINE OF DRAMA
Writer In Atlantic Monthly is Out.
spoken In condemning Taste of
the Modern Piayooer.

The drama? We never had much of
1t, properly speaking, so far as orig
inal work is concerned, but we did
have great actors, and during the lat
ter half Of the nineteenth century our
people loved good plays, admirably
acted. Most of us can remember the
time when the great cities had many
theaters offering the noblest work and
crowded to the doors. Now, in the last
ten years, oil is changed. Good art
has wholly passed except when a mas
ter from England or France comes
among us in his declining years to
give those farewell performance"
that mark his withdrawal from active
life and the ending of great era of
dramatic art. The taste Of the tired
business man Is now the standard and
the directing cause of whatever Is pro-
duced; and whenever his fancy rises
degree above the silly and the hu-
morously salacious it scars only into
the dubious realm of pathology plus
pornography. No catastrophe so COM
plete, no debacle so humiliating has
ever been recorded in any art in so
brief a space of time.-From the At
lantic Monthly.

PERILoUS POSITIONS.

Call to aid yout courage your wisdom:
Think on the sudden change Of human
scenes:
Think on the various actualities Of war;
Then on the mighty power Of austere
virtue;
Think on that providence that guards the
good.
Who is it who declares women are
timid creatures, screaming in terror,
scared of their lives at the sight of
mouse? On the contrary, they are
every whit as courageous as men and
go through perilS, earning their daily
bread in positions which some men
quail at tackling. There's the NUM-
tlon factory, for instance Hands
were urgently wanted. There were not
men or boys enough to fill the de-
mands, yet the wages offered were
temptingly high. One young woman In
an eastern city, read of the urgent
need. She looked around at her little
brothers and sisters of whom she was
the only support. She was seam
stress. Try as she did, she found 1t
difficult to make both ends meet. The
resolve came to her to apply for the
position. Her friends did their best
to dissuade her, but she was firm.
ut is mans work. they argued !;
"too perilOus for woman" They
argued in vain. She applied for 4
position in On ammunition factory. To
the surprise of many, she secured it.
She knew the danger 1t had been
pointed out to her. All the work re-
Quired was steady eye, steady
hand, steel-bound nerves and close ap-
plication, she decided No great
strength was required. She put every
thought, her heart and soul into the
occupation. Her success as high
wage Garner spread far and wide. 9th
or ambitious women flocked to these
factories by the hundred. They stood
shoulder to shoulder with men, rear-
less and alert. Women had struck a
Jew vein in the worlds mine.

Another woman, q slip Of a girl In
years, took a notion to fly in an aero
plane from Chicago to New York. Did
she accomplish the daring feat? 1t
took nerve a-plenty, a world Of cour-
age. She faced the greatest peril in
midair long hours at a stretch. Had
she allowed one wave of terror to
sweep over her or permitted her hand
to trembe, she would have been
dashed to death. If there is a won
derful feat to be accomplished now
adays that none but the bravest dare
undertake, they are looking about for
a woman to fulfill the mission. There
always will be women who are afraid
of a mouse but 1t isn't thought cute
any more to acknowledge oneself as
timid The best of all Is that even
while engaged In these nerve-racking
pursuits, women do not lose their femi-
nlsm. They delight in exploiting their
cOurage-that Is all. But whatever
they do, they will always be found
lovable. Courageous sweethearts
make the best of wives.

HOW TO PLEASE THE MEN.

II all the year were playing holidays,
To sport would be as tedious as to
work.
But when they seldom come, they wished
for some
And nothing pieaseth but rare accidents
There's man In almost every fam
lily. If not, there ought to be. Once
in while, he Is the household drudge,
as 1t were, the plod who keeps the
wheel of support going. But more
generally he is found to be the king
Of the home, the one person whom ev-
cry member Of the family Is most anx-
ious to please. There is nothing which
has so much weight with either sons
or daughters as for the mother to re-
mark: "Your father will not be pleased
If you do this or that" It's thread
bare joke about families trying to
please the young son Of the household.
Even the young men who call come
in for their share. If they are not
pleased in the way they are enter
tanned, the girls know full we'll that
they will not be likely to come again
very soon. All Of the girls future pros
poets depend upon pleasing the men.
The young woman who has a sarcastic
tongue is told to curb it if she would
make herself pleasing to the opposite
sex. Even in her dressing, whether
she will admit 1t or not, she cares q
great deal as to whether her male
friends are pleased with her appear
ance or not. 1t Is only natural that
women should like to appear most fair
in masculine eyes.
Nine family men out Of ten will tell
you they have no "say so' about the
house. The truth Is, everything around
and about it is for their pleasure. II
the head of the house is not pleased
with corned beef, no matter how much
the girls may want it, 1t is tabOoed
from that table. If he has q sweet
tooth and has never been able to gel
over the liking for the maple cake
which his mother used to make, 1t Is
the greatest pleasure wife knows
to 60 down to the kitchen and concoc'
with her own hands the sweet he likes
1t Is the ambition of working girls tt
be at their best in the eyes of the
foreman, their fellow workers and EN-
ployers.
Men do not realize to what extern
they are really lords of creation. I
all the male inhabitants in the worlt
were united In the one desire to pleas
the women, what q wonderful worit
this would be. The trouble Is, mel
are wont to please themselves and lie
1t go at that. 1t must be said to thei
credit that they are generally rationa
In their wants, likes and dislikes
They have no other wish than to b.
pleased with women. The girl VII,
pleases them best, they court and wed
All the world turns upon the axle O
pleasing. What delightful existenc
it is, then, after all, when the prfnci

small nome or start business, or
send promising son to college. When
the step has been once taken many
wife finds it difficult to return to the
routine Of home duties, thereby giving
up her weekly wage, which came In 50
handily in the family upkeep.
Most husbands are grateful to the
loving wife who so nobly takes upon
herself share Of the burden of sup
port. Occasionally there is one who
does not seem to realize or appreciate
her sacrifice in this direction. The
home of the woman who works outside
Of it all day long is never quite the
cOZy dOvecote of the woman who can
remain in it giving all her time and at
tcntOn to it. There are wives who
could not earn dollar outside of the
home if their very lives depended on
it. Who shall say whether the general
run of husbands love the "clinging
vines" best or not? No woman can do
two things well at one and the same
time. If wife has evolved into a
business woman, the home tells the
story more plainly than words. Each
detail of housekeeping gets but lick
and a promise. Time and strength
forbids anything else. The home at
mosphere melts away slowly, but sure
~. The wife Is too fretted by many
little annoyance of the day to rush
to the door at the sound of her hus-
bands latchkey to give him hug and
a kiss. More than likely he is the first
to enter the gloomy, shutup rooms.
Where home, for any cause, be-
comes desolate, existence within its
walls Is unsatisfying; when this oc-
ours, goodly share Of affection is apt
to crumble with 1t. The business wife
forgets all too soon her pretty little
artlfices and coquetry-and these are
the magnets which hold mans heart
In leash. The working wife gradually
usurps the place of the husband who
earns less as the head of the family.
If sickness or sorrow falls upon a
husband, incapacitating him from sup
porting the home and its inmates, a
wife should heroically go forth to earn
money, IL she has the ability to do so.
Her husband will love her twice as
dearly for her heroism and evidence OF
love for him. But, unless 1t is u neces-
slty, most men do not care to have
their wives wage-earners. The home
with full measure Of love therein is
most appealing to masculine natures.
