Leo GARLIC, whose performance as
the French valet in Upstairs and
Down." was much admired when
that New York success had its OPEN
ing in Washington a year ago. has
received his reward at the hands OF
the authors in the shape OF a new
play fitted specially to his measure
In lombard. Limited" Mr.. Garlic
as lombard has unlimited sway.
II is dramatized portrait. with the
chief player a far more indispensa-
bic figure than the proverbial prince
OF Denmark" though he is not set
forth in the program as a star"
lombard is an artist. a dreamer Of
beautiful gowns, a poetic soul above
the sOrdid cares of business. and
withal a model of virtue, kindness.
and generosity. The people of his
fashionable establishment adore him.
His business goes to smash, his ideal
Of love Is shattered. but his friends
rally to his aid with ready money,
and his heart turns to a deeper and
tTuer attachment. That is about all
there is TO the story. The minor
characters, which means all but
lombard, are interesting types,
mostly employees of the place, and
they have various little love and
other affairs which help to make an
interesting evening.
But Leo GARLIC by himself is an
evening Of joy. He h distinctly an
arrival among current comedians. A
bright. eager. vivid personality, he
draws the picture in simple and del
icate lines. with perfect ease of man
nsr. which breaks into force and
passion without the least evidence Of
strain.
AS for the lines of the play, they
have all the earmarks of the we'll
established playmaking firm Of Fred
eric and Fanny Hatton. They are
nearly all very clever. some of them
are richly amusing. and of course
there are many that are too desper-
ately Outspoken to be thought of as
naughty. Some of the girls in the
play are bad. and others would like
to be, but lombard himself is so
good that nobody minds. The play is
a few shades more faTcical than the
previous productions Of Mr.. and Mrs.
HuttOn. and this no doubt excuses the
occasional lapses from plausibility
Miss Janet Dunbar is a charming
leading woman. with the role of
faithful attachment to her chief wins
reward in the end. Grace Valentine
as Daisy, a mannequin girl with
views OF life acquired at the movies,
is the most amusing of the large con-
tingent of feminine satellites. Ruth
Terry as Eloise, a model justly
proud of her curves. is another who
won many laughs. Charles Ham
n1ond, Warner Baxter, and Hallam
Bosworth are very good in important
parts.
The many and varied effects In
gowns of the women in the company
made a sartorial ensemble that was
lust as striking as that Of Upstairs
and Down" 1t seems to presage that
in the future We will hear Of typical
Norosco wardrobe in addition to the
advertised typical cast

ELKo COUNTY STocKMEN
HEAVIEST LOSERS FROM RABIES

Z. r. Sans of the L. S. biological
survey says the worst experience in
the Western country has been in
Elko county, where twenty tons of
coyote pelts were shipped since the
breaking out of rabies. Since that
shipment 1000 pelts were sent away.
The losses to the stockmen in Elko
county. according to Mr.. Sans, have
run into big money, as one firm alone
reported the loss of 200 head and
others reported losses aggregating 400
head. The losses. among cattle are
greater than with other classes of
stock, as il is more natural for COW
10 fight off coyotes or dogs with its
horns. while horses and sheep give
the providers a wide berth. In this way
the COW, in resisting attacks. stands
its ground and the rest of the herd
rally around the battle scene. In thi!
way a coyote soon gets in the thicl
of a herd and bites left and right
spreading infection throughout th'
bunch OF stock.-Star.

Lord Davenport is credited with the
intention of forbidding any loaf being
sold under twelve hours OF it's leav-

that less bread is eaten when II Is
stale. In war time the stale loaf, If
the stale loaf il must be, will be ac-
cepted without murmur. So far il is
only rumor. and apparently, the bak-
ers, though they agree that it would

bread consumed, have some practical
objections. They point out that stale
bread would mean more toast, more
butter and more jam, and where
would the economy be then? II will
