The management OF this theater
therefore emphatically states that

This perturbation of famous
play has been pronounced by sub
stantial authorities the greatest work
OF David Griffith. The producer has
combined drama. artistic motion
photography. color and humor with
a musical establishment that spells
a genuine departure in the art OF
the theater. He has vivifed the
people of Lottie Blair Parker's orig
inal play and brought them forth
from the land of make-believc, far
moro charmipgly than they were
originally introduced.

ARGENTINA SELLS
s5O,OOO,OOO NOTES
New York Bankers Buy Issue
to Re Offered on About
7.20P. G. Basis To-day.

For the irst time in Ave years the
Government of the Argentine Republic
consummated yesterday in this market
new financing by selling to banking
syndicate $4,000. 900 OF Its two year Z
per cent. Treasury gold notes. The pur-
chasing syndicate was headed by Blair
Co, the Chase Securities Corporation
and White, Weld & Co. Public Offering
of the new notes will be made to-day
at price slightly under par. the basis
to be approximately 1920 per cent.
In addition 10 the three names men
toned above the purchasing syndicate
Is relatively In &c and selling syndicate
country wide In participation has been
formed for the disposition of the bonds.
Requests for additional participation In
dicate the early success of the Offering.
The first negotiations for a loan to Ar
gentina started many weeks ago and the
active negotiations. which were con-
Guided yesterday, began about six weeks
ago. Competition for the offering has
been keen. both from England and New
York.
100 per cent. basis is much more
favorable to thL Argentine Republic than
the rate whica could have been made
six months age, and the American nego-
tiators were helped hy the flood of
British colonial offerings pressing on the
Losdon market. The financing is ex-
pecsed to be helpful in restoring ex-
change on Bu.nos Aires nearer to parity
and hence in stimulating trade between
the United States and the Argentine
Government. 1t follows the successful
placing of s5),000.000 o. Brazilian Gov
ernment loans IN this market.
Although the State Department may
not be said to have expressed formal
approval of the financing, which will
benefit both the United States and Ar
gentina, it Was ascertained that the
department would not look on the loan
unfavorably. All of the obligations IS
sued in this market by Argentina In
1914. 1915 and 1916 we're paid of at
their Tnaturities.
Seven years ago n issue OF SIS, 600, 600
OF Argentina'.s notes was made Six
years ago an issue Of s25, 900, 600 OF her
six year pe- cent. notes was consu'n-
mated, and T. was paid OF last spring
under an arrangement with England
which resulted in the shipment of gold
to New York from London and its re-
shipments to Buenos Aires. Five years
ago two issues were fioated. one of six
months notes for 1s,500,000 on 4.70
per cent basis and the other of one year
notes for s15,coo.o0o on a 5 to 51a per

was conducted with extraordinary violence and resisted with frantic saw
agery. But before it broke into volcanic eruption it had obiterated the
would-be manly women. The sufragets insisted on their womanLness
much more consciously and strenuously than the Victorian women.
The manly phase, however, had established liberation for practices
which, though formerly confined to men, we're really as proper-or i'm
proper-to women a to men. For instance, women gave up crying and
falntlng, and took to swearing and smoking.
When my mother formed her habits, smoking by women, or even in
their presence, was unheard of. There "a not even a smoking room in
the house. Men went down to the kitchen late at night and smoked up
the chimney. When women discovered that the liberation and ever the
practice of smoking was the price of male company, they first tolerated and
then practiced. The habit is one of the most extraordinary alterations
of our civilization, imposed on us as it was by the redskin at the climax
of the Renascence. Men we're always a little ashamed of ii, and were a-
tualy heading for its remuneration when women gave it an enormous i'm
pulse and made it quite shameless. In the nineteenth century we could
hope smoking might disappear in the twentieth. Now people who do
not smoke have to choose between stale tobacco and social ostracism.
AS refinement was supposed to be proper to women and roughness
proper to mn fifty years ago, the great increase in companionship be-
tween men and women during that period was bound either to refine the
men II roughen the women. 1t has done both. The feminine refinement,
which was only Stiffness disguised by affection, has gone, and women are
harder and healthier, and the stock sizes of their clothes re larger in
consequence.
The masculine yigor that wa only boorishness, sovenlness and neg
let of person and clothes has fled before feminine criticism. But the
generalization that women re refined and men rough by nature a super
fetal one, holding good only when, a often happens, the mans occupation
is rougher than the woman's.
