It is to moisten the borer with 8 little of a fairly strong (say 10 per cent) solution of caustic soda or potash. It will then cut the rubber with little more diff. culty than it will cut cork.

 She went into the locker room and glancing around. she spied an old Bal maccan coat belonging to the red headed Seibert girl. and feeling sure she would not need it that afternoon, she slipped it on and GU across the course to intercept Bob. He had not made his round as quickly Ss she thought and so she sat down on a stone and waited for him, and as she sat there he came up quiet ly across the turf and threw his arms around her from behind, and bending her head back, started to kiss her. then hesitated just moment, turned little white and then did it.
 'It did not make much impression on her at the time. but she got to thinking about it afterward and recalled that the Bal maccan coat has big green check in it that can be seen for half mile and that the Seibert girl always wears it on the cQurse when the weather is bad and that she had her back turned to Bob at the time and that he hesitated and turned so she is wondering now whether he thought he was kissing her or the Seibert girl.

THE KISS BURGLAR" AT THE
 JEFFERSON NEW YEARS DAY

Cleverness runs riot throughout The Kiss Burglar coming to the Jefferson New Years Day, matinee and night. That's the little secret of the musical comedy beautifully prescribed For the Tired Business Woman" Coutts and Tennis are directing the tour of the George M. Conan theatre success, where last season it ran for six solid months to capacity houses It is said to be the smartest musical comedy production the American stage has seen in years. You certainly would not call '"The Kiss Bur- glar' a song hit show. It is nothing so ordinary as all that, the book and lyrics from the pen of Glen MaeDonough and the music supplied by the popular young American composer, Raymond Hubbell, show at a glance that they have sur passed themselves as regards ingenuity and novelty.
 Filled with Irresistible music, bubbling with mirth sentiment and melody, with an enormous company. including the fla nous Peacock Alley chorus, and the original Cohan theatre production, will easily stamp "The Kiss Burglar" the sea- sons most interesting musical comedy event.
