CORD
THE TIRE OF SUPERIOR QUALITY
At MODERATE PRICE.

ATA MODERATE PRICE.
we pay our Workmen in Tires a very
high wage We keep the number OF each
Tire which each man makes. Then, II
there are any just complaints, we refer
to the number of the Tire, and the man
who has made it have to pay che claim.
The workmen agree to this, because
they receive very much higher pay than
is customary in other factories; and by
having to pay the claim ii there is
any--is undoubtedly the cause that they
take special care in the construction OF
these tires; and to this is due the great
record of the Viking Tires.

Rose From Burlesuue.

Al Jolson. it is said, was once a
small time black faced com edian and
occasionally appeared in burlesque.
Leon Errol. who is being starred this
season. was for years in burlesuue.
The Rogers brothers. and Weber and
Fields were at one time known as
German comedians" in burlesaue.
Fred Stone, with the late Dave Mont

Above them all, David Warfield.

another who rose to fame from the

The American stage has found
much of its comedy and many of its
comedians. as well as more serious
actors, in the burlesQue field. As
matter of fact. burlesque for many
years has been the nursery of the
comedy stage. - The musical comedy
companies are filed with burlesque
actors and actresses. and the revue"
type of entertainment could not exist
without them. The route of many en-
tertainers leads from burlesque via
vaudeville to Broadway. Indeed. IL

fulness to protect themselves against
"the lifting of their players by the

Take 1t From Me- is coming to the
Shubert- Belasco Theater next week,
opening Sunday night. 1t is a crea-
ton of tuneful. jingling musical num-
bers and mirth-making situations. If
you want to laugh or to hear a really
good song, or prefer to witness an
eye-pleasing spectacle. Take 1t From
Me" should satisfy the desire.
The piece is full of action, cleverly
staged. and the comicalities are guar
anteed 'all clean and wholesome" 1t
is claimed to.fbe a radical departure
from what has generally been known
as musical comedy.
Three young men attempt to wreck
department store by resorting to
ridiculous excesses. One of them has
spent $4,000 left by his uncle. where
upon he is notified he must take over
the store and conduct it successfully
for a year, in which event millions
will be his reward. The manager OF
the store has framed things SO that
the boy cannot succeed. which causes
the youth to decide to wreck the
business. But the strangest part OF 1t
is the store succeeds.

What shock this caused! My

coursgement in my uncle. who sug-
gssted that ] could confide my am

go through this rigid training. but
We must do so abroad. only to hear
our teacher say at the finish: Now

'On" OF the first surprises found in
Engiish-speakng countries was that
audiences expect their principal actresses
to have what is called a sympath
part. They say that 'So-and- s" nj, wed
an unsympathetic part so sympathetical-
ly. Such thing would be strange In
my country. Audiences there watch for
acting. They don't want an actress to
make part 'sympat thetc when it Is
not. They want her to characterize.
and they judge her performance &C.
! cordingly. ...
'Thismay account for the unpOpulari- j.
ty Of some OF our actresses and dra-
matists. They are called cold. unrelent-
ing and too realistic. But that is their
! training and what they think to be
right"

that Sweden was too narrow for the

was sent to England. she mastered the

An Intimate Chat With Miss Martha Hedman
EY WILLIAM BARTLETT REYNOLDS.

GONE years ago there was family
living in n little town in the north
Of sweden that prided itself on two
en- and the number of boys it had
given to the church.
In this family was little girl with
blonde pigtails hanging down her
back. She wasn't healthy child. and
the doctors told her parents she
should go up into the hills with some
old woman who tended the goats and
cows in the summer. live on milk and
egeS and breathe the pure air, and the
promise was made that she would feel
hetter in the autumn when she came
back. The little girl was fourteen
years old then, and the treatment was
beneficial. SO the following spring she
was, sent away again with the same
old woman. During four or nve
months she saw no human beings but
the man who came to them once a
month to bring meat. and the old
xhepherdeSs.
When she came back to her village
the next fall the family decided she
should be educated. so they sent her

berg soon became her best friend. The
name meant nothing TO her at the
time, for she had never even heard of
tho theater, and wasn't aware that
her, chum's father was the most ia
nous dramatist in the country
At Christmas Strindberg wrote a
fairE- tale into dramatic form for
enactment by his children and their
friends. and at this little family pal y
Martha Hedman made her debut as an
actress.

to do, the very thing for which j had

there in the Swedi sh highlands. but

such a thing as dramatic art. yet
felt instinctively that there ought to be.
Then I went home for the summer
vacation and my parents sent me TO
my uncle and aunt at Helsingfors
