room, where, unknown alike TO the
husband and wife. he has ambushed
himself against the departure OF the
former.
The Love Making.
The French have a theory that
every woman likes 70 be made love to-
Il is easy TO understand that any
woman. whatever her nationality
would like 10 have M Warmers kind
Of love made to her
The chief result OF the afternoon
tete-a-tete IS that the wife agrees 10
return 10 the bachelor apartment 10
spend an hour or so that evening. She
suspects that her husbands "Argen-
tinian" IS in reality another woman.
and Il IS more with the idea OF paying
him off in his own coin than for any
other reason that she agrees 10 the
evening appointment
The Wrong Medicine.
Some more Of the same sort OF love
making is so potent that the woman
falls I'm a faint. whereupon her host
prepares for her a draught which he

ammonia They both take a dose OF
it and Immediately fail into a deep
and dreamless sleep In his confusion
the lover has got hold Of his sleeping
medicine instead OF the heart stimu-
liant.
The third act opens with the woman
asleep on a sofa, and her host curled
up IN an armchair with the electric
lights blazing brightly and just a
suggestion OF sunlight creeping in
through the drawn window shades
One OF the funniest bits OF comedy
Of the piece is furnished at this juno
tion by Arthur Lewis. who is cast as
Mr.. Warmers valet Coming in and
falling to notice the other occupants
Of the room he turns out the liEhts,
throws wide the curtains and floods
the apartment with sunlight
Suddenly he grasDs the true situa-
I zion and with equal suddenness he
draws the curtains and. on his way
out. snaps on the electric lights
When the sleeping partners awak-
en- the woman is, of course, overcome
with CONSERVATION and, as they are
trying to discover a way out Of her
dilemma. a ring at the bell announces
visit from her husband.
Bringing It to n Finish.
In panic she darts into the bath
room, leaving her companion in mis-
husband. Tt develops that hubby is
overcome with remorse because he.
too. has been absent from home all
night and before Drawing the pres
ence Of his indignant wife he wishes
10 take counsel from the English
man.
It is a simple matter to straighten
out the affair so that everybody is
satisfied. but as the final curtain de-
sends one thought intrudes upon the
consciousness OF the average husband
in the audience
No American wife. no matter how
deeply involved she had been herself
would be satisfied with the slender
explanation with which the French

~sometime.v Musical Comedy.
There is a new musical comedy at
the Shubert that promises to stay on
the boards OF Broadway for at least
a season This is Sometime" the
book OF which Is by Rida Johnson
Young, with the musical numbers by
Rudolph Friml.
There is not a great deal to the
play except some catchy song hits
and plot that Is unique because It
gives an understudy a cherished op-
portunity to displace the star and win
the plaudits OF the public Also there
are n number OF young women who
are pleasing TO the sight.
Francine Larrimore plays the part
Of the understudy. and while her sing
ing voice leaves much TO be desired.
It must be admitted that she gives a
very pleasing performances at all
times. Ed Wynn Is the "featured''
comedian OF Sometime"
The musical scofe Of Sometime IS
bright and catchy. The two leading
numbers are Sometime" and The
Tune You Can't Forget" Il is per-
aaps easier to remember the latter.
for the reason that the melody Is only
slightly altered from Tickle Toe
and number OF others OF last sea
sons most popular songs.
