event in our theater John

stars new play is to be decided by Mr..
Hopkins at an early date. Touching
the various vehicular reports the pro-

is that Barrymore is to be starred in

prominent American literary figure.
Another hint in circulation casts him
in Edmond Rostand's posthumous play,
THE Last Night of Don Juan" the
production OF which at the Comedie

CANNING TIME.
The spices of the Orient are flavoring the
air
And the housewives of the country now are
busy everywhere.
They are bottling vine and orchard and its
sunshine and its gold
To make bright old Winters table when
.fthe nights are long and cold
It's the concentrated Summer that Is
waited on the breeze.
There's the fragrance OF the peach tree
with the Glove from overseas,
And the sunshine of the Summer shall
make glad the hearts of men
From the shelves of bottled sweetness,
when the Winter comes again.
All the mothers In the kitchens at the can
ming time Of year
Are storing fruit and blossom for the VIM
ter days and drear.
And from many a Jar Of Jelly and from
many a cleaning can
Shall leap the orchards splendor to delight
the soul Of man.
Oh, tired and busy housewife, you may
think it dreary toll,
But its memory and beauty that you re
saving from the soil,
And thru all the days of Winter when the
world is bleak and bare
With the joys OF by-gone Summer you
shall make the table fair

during the war resulted in building up
the conviction in many sections of the
country that there is legislative cure
for every real or fancied evil that
exists. In hard times, the naive sug-
gestion that a law be passed to print
more paper money is not unknown.
Fanatics of all sorts pour incessant
pleas upon congress for this or that
drastic law enactment, dolefully fore
telling the ruin of the nation if their
demands are not needed forthwith. \
This year all of this is taking place
in the midst of the important legis-
lation, which invariably follows a
change in the political complexion of
the party in power. The tariff is
being changed, and the tax bill is
being revised. This means that every
kind of business being carried on in
the country wants to have its particu-
lar situation placed before congress,
either with the plea that the raw ma
terials essential to it shall be admitted
to the country free of import duty. or
that the finished product from foreign
wall. In the matter of taxes, it is but
natural that every kind of business
should seek legislation favorable to
itself, and this year has been no ex-
ception. When it is considered that
congress will be held responsible in
large part for any degree of failure in
the governments economy efforts,
and that primary elections are impend-
ing in many states, it becomes diff
cult to believe that the berth of a
duly elected member of congress is
anything remotely suggesting a bed of
roses.
