BIOGRAPHY OF
 SIR HERBERT TREE

The late Sir Herbert Tree, whose untdmely death removed a. conspicu- ous figure from the international stage, was a man of uncommon ver- Satility. His distinction in this coun- try was due chiefly to the gripping and powerful character creations,
 many of which had been seen here.
 svengeli in ..,,, rsTrilby." Colonel New New
 lock, F'akstaf and Zakkuri in "The Darling of the Gods,'' are his best
 liked creations here. There has
 long waged a controversy over his
 histrionic position, and in the main
 the United States and his own Eng land did not at all times agree. But Sir Herbert was a most ikeable chap and during the days preceding the world war he created a most favor- able impression in his interviews and speeches, and did much to cement l the fraternal spirit between the two ! nations. as | ideal biography-ha!s just been issued from the press of E. P. Dutton & Co.,. compiled from a most personal, inti-
 mate and interesting sketch by his
 Max Beerbohm. Edmnud Gosse, Louis
 N. Parker, Desmond Mccarthy, C..
 Haddon Chambers, Bernard Shaw l and others. From this multitude of l data has been collected, and the book profusely illustrated, is one which | should be and doubtless will be read with enjoyment and profit by many thousands of his personal friends and
 stage admirers in this country Not the least interesting is the reprint of Sir Herbert's contributions to the Enghsh press on America just prior and immediately following our 'go- ing in the late great war.

What They Mean
DID YOU DREAM OF BEAUTY

A CURIOUS fact brought 10 light
"A by the study OF dream psychology
is that as a rule, the really great and
profound sorrows Of the day do not
follow us into the realm OF sleep. In
our dream Of the night there Is always
some experience or thought Of the day
preceding which sets the dream ma
chlnery going. IT IL true. II may be
something which has only incidentally
been taken cognlzance of by our wax
Ing consciousness and can only be
traced back by minute and careful
analysis Of the dream. But. as a rule.
the great sorrow and anxiety OF the
day does not mingle with the dream
emotions, say the scientists. This Is
explained on the theory that our emo
tlons with regard to our great and real
nfIllctiOn have been so exhausted In
our waking moments that they have
not strength enough left 20 make them
selves manifest amid the thrOng Of
other and less fused up" emotions
which come trooping from their
psychic lalrs.
How often" says Goethe. "have I
fallen asleep in tears and beautiful
forms and faces have come to give me
peace and comfort in my dreams"
The mystics seem to have realized
something Of this long 'befOre the
scientists discovered it; for they say
that no matter what our waking for.
tune may be, to dream OF beauty is a
most favorable omen. II means for
the dreamer peace and plenty; success
In his enterprises and the love OF those
dear to him. In this connection may
be mentioned the theory of the sci.
entists that dreams are necessary
mental relief; sort Of safety-valve to
avoid the too high pressure OF those
unnumbered thoughts and emotions
which have accumulated in the psychic
Unconscious" and are always seeking
expression.

MISS FLOPEARS' SCHOOL

chicken. He is a smart youngster.
Takes after his pa, think"
"Perhaps he does" replied Mrs Fox.
"But he needs teaching. and Miss
Flopears, l ain sure, is the one to do
It."
And so little Reddy Fox was sent
TO Miss Flopears Rabbits school to
learn polite manners.
Miss Flopears daily taught them
how to behave at the table and she
taught them how to approach a garden
filled with nice green things and how
