Back to Bachelordo1n
By ZOE BECkLEY

A bit ashamed of his own callvus-
ness, Walt unpacked his things in his
little room on the Square and sat
down to work. Work was his solution
for all situations which baffled HIM.
! If life became heavy, work ighlened
it. If life turned empty, work filed
it.
Several times his fingers dropped
and his thoughts went wandering, af-
ter Janet What was she going to fill
IN ms pace? Would her work
! really absorb her fully? Or-vould
Roy Nicoll help to take his place.
A sudden fury seized him at the
thought of how we'll Roy Nicoll had
wrought his design. He stood up
: slowly, his fists clenched. He put on
his hat and coat and was about to so
cut. Then his Slower-moving, mind
asked:
Just what are you thinking of do
;ng?" 81 Xxi.
''Ill see Nicoll-and decide then.'
Walt said to himself.
NO doubt Nicoll deserves some
thing at your hands?'' his sardoric
mind replied. "But just not to appear
ridiculous, won't YOU formulate now
what it is you're going to revenge "
Is it his giving Janet the editOrship :
Remember, you urged her yourself
TO accept it! Is it offering you the
chance to write that serial? That was
Insulting in q way, but not the kind
Of insult one beats up a man Tor.
What is it, then, you are going to do
!. to him-and Why?
Walt snapped his fingers at the sar-
GOnic mentor within and was ocking
his door to go out. when mans
footsteps came running up the stairs.
Walt paid no attention until he turned
to go down. Then he found himself
face to face with Roy Nicofl.
Il am glad I caught you, Waltz
NicOll said. II want to speak to YOU
for a few minutes, and I have llalf a
( notion you want to speak to me about
| the same matter. Where can we do
| IT,"
Walt turned and unlocked his door.
! Both men stepped into Waits room.

Frs. 1t is her custom to select plays
Ideep meaning, of complex char
FER and new ideas. Perhaps the
IT OF these is Leah kleschna," a
Imatization of the great novel of
same name. The character of the
'Aple Austrian girl, brought up I'M
4 the tutelage of the greatest crook

oortunity. Since that time the role
3 tested the ability Of many dra-
tic actresses.
Miss Virginia Perry will interpret
S powerful, yet subtle role with the

GERARD SHOW AT
GRAND NEXT WEEK

Producers Of burlesque shows are
judged much like horses, by past per-
formances--so it is safe to say that
the patrons of Grand theater in Hart
ford next week are assured of a good
run for their money as Barney Ger
ards "Some Show" with Edmond
Hayes, opens q weeks engagement
there. Barney Gerard is considered
the foremost producer of burlesque
shows in this country today, his
'Follies of the Day" being known
from coast to coast as the criterion
Of that form of entertainment. In
"SOme Show" which is the newest
Of Mr.. Gerard's offerings, he has out
done himself, if advance reports are
true.
Mr.. Gerard has secured the services
of that sterling vaudeville headliner
Edmond Hayes, of "Piano Mover
fame, at the highest salary ever paid
in burlesque. He has provided Mr..
Hayes with vehicle that Is said to
be full of genuinely funny situations
and has lavishly furnished scenery
and costumes that will long he re-
mem bered by all who see it as the
most pretentious effort ever made by
burlesque producer. All the songs
are original having been written for
Some Show by Mr.. Gerard Albert
Won Tilzer Bert Grant composer Of
Lew Fields, "Step This Way') and
Lew Brown.
A we'll balanced cast has been Sc
cured to support Mr.. Hayes. One of
the company, Mildred Cecil, wom-
an with a wonderful soprano voice,
is making her first tour Of America
and she is considered the find of the
season. She is said to possess I'M
usual personality and knows how to
deliver a song. Others in the COM
pany are Thomas Snyder, who is
seen in the screaming part of "Bozo;'
Marie Jansen. prima donna from
the musical comedy ranks; Harry
Hills, Billy Waldron and a chorus of
young beauties quite up to the Ger
ard standard.

Janet's proposal to break up their
home had come to Walt like a Ihun-
derbolt. In the play of lightning that
went on in his mind as result Of the
tension between himself and Janet,
separation had come only as thoughts
come to highly sensitive mind in
times of stress. All kinds of desper-
ate remedies fash across the mind ;
hut only those with body to them re-
suit in action.
Now that Janet had proposed sep
aration, and not only proposed 1t, but
seemed determined to carry it out
the thought came to Walt thai the
best way to convince her of the folly
of her idea was to let her experience
its working out. He knew pleading
would do no good. 1t was not her
heart that had set on the plan. but
her mind. In addition, there WAS an
angry feeling in him that if their
home and love meant so little to JAM
ct that she was willing to give thom
up, he and she had been deluding
themselves as to how strong their
love had BEEN
Man like, he wanted the thing over
as soon as possible. He packed his
grip, his typewriter and his trunk
S''Sh'A
over to his little room on Washington
Square, which he had never relin-
quished. Then turning to Janet, he
took her by the shoulders, looked
long at her, kissed her, and said:
"See you again."
With not another word he turned
and left the house. Somehow he felt
less at the moment than he had eX-
pected 1t did not seem final, this sep
grafton. 1t was one of those ''vaca l.
tons they had always agreed should
be taken by every married coupe.
True, this was more serious than u
mere vacation. It had sinister
threat Of finality about it. But 10
Walt a threat always aroused only NJ
terest. He was afraid of life. II
matters between him and Janet mend
cd, it was what he expected and want
ed. If they did mott was lie. ana
life was always gain to a WRITER.

RUTH CAMERON
The Most Beautiful Woman
BY RUTH CAMERON

Yes, she was pretty, but she dldn
look real She looked as if some one
had taken body and painted face
on it."
That was the vivid description with
which Molly, the Stenographer Lady,
furnished us after having witnessed
the cabaret show.
she" was one of the star per-
formers-a little doll-faced lady with
pink cheeks and yellow hair and
round eyes and Cupid's bow mouth
She was unquestionably pretty in
| the accented sense Of the word.
She Didn't Look Real.
| And Just rs unquestionably she
! didn't seem real.
Nor was that wholly the effect of
! her painted cheeks or scored eye
! brows. The artiticialty was some
| thing deeper than that Of paint and
| powder
! Her whole face had an effect of
! unreality and artificiality about it.
! It was like a house done by q cheap
! decorator. 1t didn't look lived in.
I thought of NIolly's description the
other day as 7 passed down one OF
/ the show streets of a big city. where
pretty women are wont to parade.
Faces That Look AS If They Had
Been Bought.
SO many faces there were like that
| SO many meaningless. stylish faces
| that looked as if they had been
| bought instead of grown.
The sameness of it actually gave
! me a sense of mental nausea

pretty to me. but I couldn't even see

And then I saw woman standing
on a corner, evidently waiting for
some one. She was a woman forty
five or fifty. She had gray hair She
ing Heaven for it.
Her features were bit irregular,
but strong and kind. Her skin was
clear and healthy. Her eyes were
bright. There were lines in her face
-huInOr wrinkles about the bright
gray eyes, lines of kindness and
strength about the wide. humorous
mouth.
The Salt of :. Saving HumOr.

ing.
She looked as if she had lived and

fortitude, and learned the supreme

In this connection IL is interesting 20
note that the tomato pack IN 1914
amounted TO 1920, 900 cases, but IN
1915. the next year, it dropped 20 little
